I did some swapping of older cameras gathering dust and picked up a Fuji GW690iii with a 90mm f3.5 lens ..... took a test roll the other day with Fuji Pro 400H and here is a shot 1/125 f/4 ..... wow! I can understand Adam's love affair with his wide Hassy and others here with true medium format (6x9 is big and the same ratio as 35mm) ... will have more to show as time goes on, and I shoot more pictures ..

I bought a GW690II a year ago - those negs!  A 6x9cm colour transparency is a wonder to behold  :)

:D  I think you've been watching too many old Sherlock Holmes films, Henry, or perhaps old newsreel footage from the 1950s.

 

Robert Frank took some good fog photos when he was in London. :)

 

A good example here.

 

Yes Ian and I like specially "Jack the ripper" :D

may be after watching this movie during my childwood , I now adore fog   :) 

Brr , terrifying this mist , this noise of carriage that resonates in the night .... it gives goosebumps :D

Steve - yes, once you go as big ad 6x9 and get good results with the close detail and resolution it is hard to go back - at least with some types of photos... Enjoy it! Edited by A miller

Nice old bike too.

Gary

Gary, I've ridden bikes all my life and for many years in India but the Enfield was never my bike. They are much loved now. Enfield also make a special 500cc version designed for export.

I think higher prices is something we will have to get used to, Gregor, if the film companies are to have a sustainable future. Film is largely raw materials, energy and labour costs and I think these will readjust as the world shifts from the hyper-globalised model of the last 20 years. Already, Portra 400 is £9 per roll and Fuji 400H is about £12 RRP per roll. Interestingly, black and white film (including the big name stuff) is now substantially cheaper than colour film which didn't used to be the case during the heyday of film production.

Ian, I know that we have to pay a price and he will increase year for year. But 11 EUR excluding cost for developing .... May be I will buy 2 or 3 rolls for the next vacations :) Well, we will see

Thanks Gregor (it's a sunrise though :) ). I agree it is expensive but it is a bit of a niche film.

 

From what I read, it is not very difficult to remove the remjet oneself. Given the costs for Cinestill's films it could be worth if for someone who wants to shoot cine films a lot and develops them at home (unless one wants to risk having a very unhappy lab manager on the phone should an unclean film damage the lab...).

 Philip,

I am sorry, you are right it's a sunrise. After your sunrise I would like to test only 3 rolls .... before have to aske Studio13 (prof. developing studio near Stuttgart) about the costs.

 

Best

Gregor
