Back to Lacock Abbey, same roll of HP5+. M7 & 35mm Summaron. 

24306362749_dce4f96d21_b.jpg

As a comparison, taken the same afternoon with M240, albeit with a 50mm lens (Summilux-M ASPH)

Preference?

For the beauty of the real "stone" and its component grains of sand , film reproduces more true because of these silver grains : wall at right , column at left and floor.  versus too "smoothed" * recognizable immediately  in digit.

The two photos are nice from a general point of view at "first sight"

but if we look at the details and we are demanding and critical , that is better in film.

 

Thanks for sharing this useful comparison Keith :)

* " smoothing pixels " by software of the cam.

Remember my comparison of fog with the same remark "microdroplets of water" or snow (ice crystals)

"M4/M5/M6" (one of them) with Summicron 35mm and Kodachrome 64 from Pont des Arts with no locks attached at that time.

 

I love decentering the main subject, as you may see this Seine/Paris scene

Thank you again for your time...

 

Adam,

 

thanks for sharing your set, it is great fun to peep and choose !

 

My fave is No 1 for its sky texture, colors, composition and contrast , it really pops off the screen ! No 11 comes second, I'd like it even more if graded a bit darker.

 

Brilliant colors and nice water texture (due to a shorter exposure time I guess) on No 9 yet the Ferry boat  bugs me and the horizon level tips a bit to the right if I may add !

 

Great serie altogether, 

 

Cheers JM, still resisting the SWC/M temptation to this day ...

A little tricky to compare because of the different focal lengths and, I think, point of focus (the 50mm photograph appears to be focussed on the far door) but I prefer the first. Partly for the extra context provided by the 35mm focal length but also because it has more 'bite' and detail (especially in the floor).

Very good did you see my other post of the stained glass and a crop ?

yes I did but on my crappy work monitor, which is good for general tones and framing, but not so much for sharpness and colors.  I was going to look at it later at home and enjoy the full effect

The red is so red !

Centering is fun for some subjects

 

 

 

same as above

 

 

 

Crop 100% of center from the frame just above to show "black layer" of this fantastic gone forever film

Amazing!  The second is quite exceptional in its color and composition.

 is quite high on the crop, I do see quite a bit of detail.  Very impressive.

Thanks very much, Jean-Marc.  I really appreciate your time.  As for the SWC, just try not to think about it and hopefully you'll let go of the urge ;)

More XP2. And more ducks.

 

Quack.

 

Adam, a big thank you for the steer on Cinestill, and I've watched a few Youtube videos and like what I see.

 

I think I've found a local place where I can buy Cinestill 800T... But this would only work with the M6 as I don't think the recanisters have a DX coding on the case, so the T2 (my street weapon of choise) would likely default to ISO 100.

 

Someone somewhere sells DX coding stickers, but can't remember if ISO 800 is one of the options. Maybe a combination of an ISO 400 sticker plus the exp comp would do the trick.

 

Hmm. Best thing to do is to buy and try...

 

Ric
