A miller Posted March 25, 2016 Share #12846 Posted March 25, 2016 Hi Ric, The lack of anti-halation layer is not exclusive to Cinestill 800. There are a number of other films that show the same effect, for example the B&W films "Lucky 100" from China or Polypan-F. I don't think the Halo effect in itself is artistic, rather it can be used for artistic purposes (another tool in the toolbox of the creative photographer). Btw, I think with a bit more exposure your results would show significantly less grain. Rgds C. I agree. This film likes to be overexposed at night and with low light. So I wouldn't hesitate to add 1 or even 2 full stops to these scenes based on what your meter calls for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
A miller Posted March 25, 2016 Share #12847 Posted March 25, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) So I found a new composition that I have been staking out and wanting to shoot during the sunrise (with my 6x9). I went out last Friday morning and didn't get the extreme drama that I was hoping for, although I did get a lovely clear sky. I was ready to try Velvia 50 but then very quickly concluded that it was not the right film for this time day as the exposure was way too long (the first was 30 seconds) WITHOUT taking into account reciprocity failure. The velvia 50 would have required a little over a minute exposure, which isn't so bad but then you have to deal with the extreme magenta color cast, and I have not invested the money and time to acquire the right magenta filter for this long exposure time. And, hey, why bother with this crap when you have EKTAR??!! The first shot was still a little over a minute with reciprocity failure but I didn't need to use any filters, not even a warming filter. You'll see that I embraced the gorgeous blues. The other two shots were taken just a little after the first, as the sun began to rise and the red began to rest on the horizon. I like this scene b/c it captures the three main bridges on the lower east side of Manhattan (the Williamsburg bridge in the center and the Manhattan and Brooklyn bridges off the distant left) as well as the skyline of downtown. Do you like any and which would be your keeper? I will work on getting this same shot with a dramatic (sky-fired) cloud covering... Welcome, dear visitor!

The last one emphasises the bridge leading to the skyscrapers with the bridges in the background fading much more into the background. With the other shots there's more light on the background bridges, balancing the picture more. Personally 1 has my preference, as the long exposure time smoothens the water and emphasises the tranquility of the time of day, also the light on the city seems to wake it up. In both other pictures the water is more choppy, and particularly in 3 that distracts me. But then, enlarged it may be a very different impression than the one I get from my iPad. All the best wishes for the festive days, C. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Henry Posted March 25, 2016 Author Share #12859 Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) Richer tones & higher contrast in the first - (and blocked shadows in the avenue of trees?). Do I see dust spots too? Ileo, I agree with Keith more definition in the first , look the background The second seems overexposed in the middle Best Henry Edited March 25, 2016 by Doc Henry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
