Jerren Posted February 5, 2013 Share #2 Â Posted February 5, 2013 Its hard for me to get past the noise on the 1st two. But the 2nd two look great. Did you crop to get that close on these pictures? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I certainly take Jerren's point about noise but we often get a lot more with film using the same amount of crop as you'll see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iduna Posted February 5, 2013 Share #7 Â Posted February 5, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) a very good series. I think that this old lenses are working very well. Yes, there is grain but for me it is adding to the texture of the furr and it unfolds a certain feeling for those little creatures by this artisitc effect.

hhmrogers Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share #8  Posted February 5, 2013 This probably isn't the right forum to post 'deadlife' but I hope nobody objects to this as a contrast to squirrels, digital sensors and dye based film images.  The camera was a IIIg and the lens a collapsible Summicron 5cm, both of which I still have. The date was 1964 and the film was Plus X. The incident was up one of the rivers in Borneo. My survey team caught this unfortunate beast for food, since none of them were bound by an embargo on pork. I still use quite a lot of film (MF and LF too) and like the appearance; film and digital images aren't really competitors for looks, they are complementary. Welcome, dear visitor!
