Advertisement Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Hi Doc Henry, Take a look here I like film...(open thread). I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
poppers Posted January 7, 2015 Share #2602 Posted January 7, 2015 (edited) I have to say Doc Henry your photographs are consistently good. Always well composed and exposed. Edited January 7, 2015 by poppers 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
amro Posted January 8, 2015 Share #2603 Posted January 8, 2015 Amro, Nice picture and beautiful color.This is good , the couple M4-P - Cron 40. I think you need a light meter isn't ? Some great pictures in your links Best Henry I do indeed need a lightmeter. I had a Leica MR (?) the kind you put on top of the camera. I never trusted it because I think the cell was exhausted. But with black and white I "guessed" the exposure. Surprisingly easy to do it turned out. I used a modified Sunny 16 rule, taking into account the lack of really bright sunlight in Britain. Thanks for your kind words. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Henry Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share #2605 Posted January 8, 2015 (edited) I have to say Doc Henry your photographs are consistently good. Always well composed and exposed. Poppers thank you for the comment and for your encouragement. As I said to Adam Miller, I almost never correct my color photos Kodak Portra because unnecessary. For black and white , I push a little development for a "little" more contrast but it depends on film , Kodak TX films do not need it , but yes ... a little for Ilford. This is not the case with photos from M8 or M9, where this requires a correction of color that can be distorted by this correction (compared to reality) In addition, M7 exposure metering is very precise and very fair which may be the reason that I did not need to correct my photos Thanks again for sharing Poppers Best Henry Edited January 8, 2015 by Doc Henry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Henry Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share #2606 Posted January 8, 2015 Doc, are you with the WHO? My father in the latter part of his career, worked for the WHO. He was a real doctor, unlike me. Amro, on missions we sometimes work with WHO to help people who need care. but I'll volunteer work for a large organization of doctors. The work is interesting, and I see that there are still many poor people in the world. It is sad I do indeed need a lightmeter. I had a Leica MR (?) the kind you put on top of the camera. I never trusted it because I think the cell was exhausted. But with black and white I "guessed" the exposure. Surprisingly easy to do it turned out. I used a modified Sunny 16 rule, taking into account the lack of really bright sunlight in Britain. Thanks for your kind words. M4-P is a great camera . Many contributors here who have posted photos have this camera. It's nice to be able to work without cell as you do Thanks for your reply Best Henry 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Henry Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share #2610 Posted January 8, 2015 Film is amazing, it perfectly reproduces the atmosphere of this "freezing fog" (- 8 °C) with these frozen microdroplets on my face at 7:00 am early morning .

Doc Henry Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share #2611 Posted January 8, 2015 Look at these two crops below and you will understand why the fog is best rendered with the film 1st photo: non enlarged picture 2nd picture: crop 100% of film crop left in the trees 3rd picture: crop 100% of the same photo in digital taken at the same place , same time (-8°C) You have noticed that it is the grain that gives this real aspect of fog that digital can not reproduce because "smooth" fog by software What do you think ?

Sparkassenkunde Posted January 8, 2015 Share #2612 Posted January 8, 2015 Tried my first roll of Cinestill 800T, but it seems I have to get familiar with it. Right now i have to do a lot more in Lightroom than I am used to do with other color negatives. Here an example which came out quite good: Welcome, dear visitor!
