gsgary Posted March 28, 2017 Share #29761 Posted March 28, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) I think I have a solution! Thank you Philip! I can download an image less than 1000kb now and post it. Might as well say it - i'm now a paid up member and no longer restricted to less than 500kb. I think the small size images were awful. These look much sharper as attached files at the correct size downloaded from flickr to my phone and then posted.

gsgary Posted March 28, 2017 Share #29762 Posted March 28, 2017 (edited) A few weeks ago our club went to Harrisons cameras (Leica Dealer) i was very tempted to buy a Sofort but bought something for my wife instead can you tell what i bought M4-2 HP5 developed in rodinal Edited March 28, 2017 by gsgary 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrism Posted March 28, 2017 Share #29763 Posted March 28, 2017 Once again I am about to move from the sublime to the ridiculous. Dusting off my shelves of old cameras, I noticed the Olympus Pen F (not the digital; the half frame 35mm film camera) focuses down to 0.35m with its standard 38mm lens. Such a sweet little camera, the focusing is so easy and sharp (despite all the dust and crud somewhere in the optics that I can't remove with Windex, microfibre cloths and a blower), and so light and easy to use. I still have my wife's Pen FT bought in 1977, but that viewfinder isn't so bright, and even though it has an adaptor for hearing aid batteries I don't trust it's meter. I have three lenses - 25mm/f4 wide, 38mm/f1.8 standard and a 150mm/f4 telephoto. So...how about I load a roll of XP2 in the Rolleiflex, and one in the Pen F, set my meter to 400ASA, see what turns up tomorrow and develop both films in the same tank? I have some 24 exposure 35mm XP2 (giving 48 frames in this camera), so I will have to take four half frame shots to every 6x6 shot. Am I up to it? Will it snow? Can I find any other excuse? Hey, my life is all about making my own entertainment these days. I'll do my best and we'll see what happens. C. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrckdavies Posted March 28, 2017 Share #29764 Posted March 28, 2017 Why can't you link from flickr ? i link from Smugmug Hi Gary I use the Tapatalk app from my mobile to post mainly because I'm on the move all the time and tied to my desk during the day if I'm not auditing systems. I can post links to Flickr but not embed them. It just doesn't work. The app gives me the html for image insertion and I put a hyperlink in and it just displays a hyperlink. I think if I were posting from a laptop I'd not have a problem. Tapatalk makes a fuzzy mess when uploading images and resizing them. So my work flow now that I'm am paid-up member and can post images to 1000kb in size is thanks to Philip's idea: 1. Get resized image from flickr on to my phone. 2. Attach, not upload via the resizing process, the correctly sized image to the thread Et voilà; hey presto! A sharp image as I see it on every other device, I hope. I have even tried resizing apps on my phone, but they don't meet my expectations. Hopefully we can all see my pics in the sharpness they have now, it's been driving me nuts over the last month.

Guest )-( Posted March 29, 2017 Share #29770 Posted March 29, 2017 48 frames on a roll is terrifying to me after getting used to 12! I guess 72 is possible! You adjust I guess. I can imagine LF users having nightmares faced with 72 shots before developing!

gbealnz Posted March 29, 2017 Share #29776 Posted March 29, 2017 In a vain effort to keep up with the Doc using his older Leicaflex SL, I got mine out, and took a selection of flower and garden shots, mainly with the 50 Summicron, as I have an Elpro set for this lens. I also took a walk through the local gardens to finish the film. Can't compete with the Paris street scene, but enjoyed the exercise nevertheless. More to come in the fullness of time.
