Doc Henry Posted December 14, 2016 Author Share #24841 Posted December 14, 2016 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) Good health to you Jean-Marie. I don't think my goodness this year reached medium-format sized proportions but I will keep believing right up to the end. Rest well and keep exposing the film. This was the best from my first attempts at using a 110m Zeiss Planar with the Hasselblad on the (sleepy local Sunday morning) streets. With Acros And a couple with the 60mm CF Zeiss and Acros again As much as I love the 'Blad (and love it I do), I'm increasingly missing being able to shift the lens when buildings are in frame. When I look at my shots with far too much foreground, ready to be 'cropped anywhere', I can hear the little squeaking of the knob on the Mamiya 645 shift lens in my head! Maybe I should pick one up on the cheap, t's that feature that puts me off saving for the (now disproportionate to value to me) SWC, not that it stops those of you making great images with one, but squeak squeak squeak.. Cooge, I like all the series specially the third.

wattsy Posted December 14, 2016 Share #24842 Posted December 14, 2016 I've a batch of autumnal stuff to sort through. Portra and either 35 or 28 Summicron (judging by the little green orb I think it was the 35). 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mute-on Posted December 14, 2016 Share #24843 Posted December 14, 2016 Ian, could you comment further on the 35 Summicron and green orb phenomenon? Is this the current ASPH? Cheers J Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bateleur Posted December 14, 2016 Share #24846 Posted December 14, 2016 I was off for a while . Too much work lead to a - pneumonia / lung inflammation. Things are ok now... but I missed a lot of Your pics. Also, I'll be off ( without computer ) for a couple of weeks in January / February as I have to slow down due to my health problems. Nothing heavy now, but I do not want to freak around with that kind of things. On the other hand, I was allowed to get some nice vintage toy from Santa Claus ( on December 6t we have this Holy Man who comes to children who have been kind and gentle all year long...;-) ) and so he brought me a ... well these are some shots of the first film I shot with it. The camera was built from 1956 to 1959. But it has a much longer story, of course. I think there must be some of You who know immediately. Film is - as usual - Kodak Tri-X 400. Rollfilm / 120 Here are the pics, taken on a short walk around the house. Hope You enjoy. Jean-Marie Jean-Marie, good for Santa Claus and to you for being good ;-) Good health and good light too.

("Colonel") on his short business trip to NYC early last summer.... M-A, 28mm elmarit pre-asph, Portra 400 The banker looks great .... serious but glad , probably after his visit to Wall Street I was so excited to be with Harold that when changing film I forgot to unwind look at these next two ladies (taken on different days) and tell me if they look like the same person...? same person? I like the look of these ladies ! well done Adam Magnifique color Best H. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why but there is something very appealing about the image. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong with this picture of course, just I enjoyed the colour ones better, if that makes sense? Gary Thanks, Gary. Yes, given that most of my film photography is b&w, these rolls of Portra and Ektar have made a refreshing change. So much so that my wife is demanding I print them and put them in place of the framed b&w images in the living room! However, I do struggle with colour balancing, particularly when I carry out the scanning rather than have it done by a Lab. So, here is another b&w! Backlit trees on a frosty December morning. Hasselblad 500C, Planar 80mm, Fomapan 100, yellow/green filter, Rodinal. Welcome, dear visitor!

wattsy Posted December 14, 2016 Share #24857 Posted December 14, 2016 (edited) Ian, could you comment further on the 35 Summicron and green orb phenomenon? Is this the current ASPH? Cheers J There's not an awful lot to say other than it is a flare effect that I've noticed a few times with this lens when the sun is included in the frame. It's the previous ASPH version (1995-ish to 2015). Edited December 14, 2016 by wattsy 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
philipus Posted December 14, 2016 Share #24858 Posted December 14, 2016 I like this a lot Keith. The tracks really cut through the ink-black blacks very effectively. Back temporarily to b&w - taken Sunday morning on my first test roll of Fomapan 100 (Hasselblad 500C, Planar 80mm, Rodinal). Lines in a Frosty Landscape I like this one too, very nice colours and composition. And there's even a con trail, too, yay.

blackandwhite Posted December 14, 2016 Share #24859 Posted December 14, 2016 Thanks to all of You for Your kindness aswell as Your wonderful pics ! I am happy Henry is back , too - before I collapsed, we worried about him missing. I like all of You photos, knowing the love You put in. Dirk uses a Rolleiflex 3.5 F with Planar, mine is the E, - same age than I do, and probably very close to Dirk's camera, even if I haven't got his talent. Keith posted superb pics , so does Philip with his abstract pic. I don't remember if I posted one or two pics I shot with the Mamiya 654 /1000 S, but I prefer the much older Rolleiflex, my dad's Voigtländer from 1949 and of course the Leica IIIf. I know the vintage lenses are less performant than modern lenses. But they have something I miss with ultra-perfect modern and contemporary lenses. Probably I am just an old romantic guy who's somehow back to childhood / youth. But it is a lot of fun to see how well these old machines do their job - after 50, 60, 70 years . I did this self-portrait the other day, Rolleiflex E , Planar 3.5 ( around 1957) and Tri-X 400 ( I scan the photos on Ilford Baryta Paper, not the negatives. This explains several strange effects, especially as some of the paper is 20 years old ) Jean-Marie 19 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
