philipus Posted September 30, 2015 Share #7021 Posted September 30, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) Very nice series Adam. I really like how the Velvia renders the different types of light in these photos. It's the 100F or? Here's a bar shot.

Here's a bar shot. Flickr TTL 50/1.4A Superia 200 thanks, Philip. It is the velvia 100. I am not aware of a velvia 100F. I am aware of the provia 100F. But my source (typically, B&H Photo) doesn't sell any velvia 100F. I like your superia shot. I am impressed by the clarity with such a low iso film and the natural rendition of the different lights. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbealnz Posted September 30, 2015 Share #7027 Posted September 30, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) Heck RP, you've gone from being a noobie at processing to a colour processer in lightning time, well done. I have been processing B&W for years (about 50 nearly) and have never once contemplated the extra that is required to do colour. Gary 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, color is just as easy as B&W...just a bit more expensive. I developed/dried/and scanned this roll in 2 hours flat. I made a homemade film dryer out of a tube of PVC pipe and a fan and so the whole hanging part of the operation goes away. It's very convenient.

Bateleur Posted October 1, 2015 Share #7029 Posted October 1, 2015 (edited) And to help understand what I was on about with respect to the "scanner". Leica T attached to a Leica BEOON. Lens is my 50mm Apo Rodagon N. All sitting on a cheap LED light I bought as we returned through HK. Not perfect, certainly not easy, but it works. I am looking more forward to getting the trays out and actually printing, but wanted to get a few moving. I often use a Fuji X-E1 which is my astro camera, but for the forum use wanted "to keep it in the family". Gary Interesting set up Gary... how did you attach the Rodagon?

philipus Posted October 1, 2015 Share #7030 Posted October 1, 2015 Thank you Adam. Yes, the colours came out ok in that shot. I was a bit surprised actually. I find Fuji's introductions and discontinuations of the various Velvia films confusing. As I understand it, Velvia 100F (not Provia) was introduced after Velvia 100 but it was eventually (in 2012 I think) discontinued. The 100 remains in production in 135. Online many complain that the colours of the 100F are not as vivid than those of the 100. I do see a difference between the two (I have some old stock of 100F) but it is nothing that can't be tweaked in post on a scan (to a certain extent). The 100 is similar in colours to the wonderful Velvia 50, my main film in the 80s and 90s. These days I shoot mainly Velvia 100 in 135. Caucasian skin renders a bit red with the 50 and 100 (non-F) but for landscapes or night photography, like your shots show, these films are fantastic. That said, also the 50 can look a bit plain sometimes, as the first of the below shows (the ground not the sky; this is straight from the Coolscan V). The second one, however, which was shot in the early morning hours (which explains the poor focus...), has a warmer red-yellow glow. Both were likely pushed one stop as that was always my practice with Velvia 50. Flickr 1N 200/2.8L Flickr 1N 200/2.8L thanks, Philip. It is the velvia 100. I am not aware of a velvia 100F.

gbealnz Posted October 1, 2015 Share #7031 Posted October 1, 2015 Interesting set up Gary... how did you attach the Rodagon? Regards Charles Hi Charles. Simple LTM to M adapter. The Rodagon is LTM, as are most enlarging lenses. I was tempted to try the 50mm Summicron, but figure the Rodagon would be better, surely? Having just "scanned" the four rolls into digital proof sheets with an old flatbed scanner, I can now see the attraction of digital. No, it's not an a Epson, it's an old dated Canon, designed for documents, but it's all I have. Kodak films are a pain too, curly as. I'm going to need to sort my scanning hardware soon though, as currently it's hard work. Gary 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think both shots are nice; but I like the second much more. I think that the reason the first is less saturated has more to do with the quality of natural light in the first vs the second and also the relative underexposure of the first shot. The second looks to be taken in the late afternoon as the light looks more golden; it also looks to have been exposed more properly. The light in the first looks cooler as if it is from mid-afternoon. It also looks to be a little underexposed. Slide film in these exposure conditions is tricky. I have come to realize the if the sky and other areas of very light tones are more than 2 stops more exposed than the foreground and other important areas around the frame, slide film will really benefit from the use of an ND grad filter to help smooth out the EVs (which the Fuji slide films react well to as they are fairly contrasty to begin with).

sblitz Posted October 1, 2015 Share #7033 Posted October 1, 2015 this is shot using the kodak xx b&w movie film that is being sold and otherwise bandied about --- posting this shot simply because there is a wide array of grays here .... may try to repost later using C1, of which I better at getting the right shot uploaded. Res may be a bit less good --- anyway, thoughts on the film? Welcome, dear visitor!

A miller Posted October 1, 2015 Share #7034 Posted October 1, 2015 Nice name on that cart.... I like the tones very much and also the smoothness. What ISO is the film? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sblitz Posted October 1, 2015 Share #7035 Posted October 1, 2015 realized that after I posted it ..... is it yours? :-) shot it at native iso 200, but there are all sorts of tales on the web about pushing and pulling a couple of stops. used color house to develop and scan, can't say exactly what they used. there is, as you can imagine, a lot of soup recipes out there for this film. but color house got it right for me 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
