Street photos and balad picture in Paris with Ilford HP5 400 Isos

 

 

Leica M7-Summilux 35 Asph

 

...   cloudy day but camera and film work well .

Digital camera will give you a modified picture in increasing luminosity or modifying the aspect

It's a distortion IMO  .  I prefer keeping this natural aspect of that day !

Love this one Henry. Very atmospheric. Almost from a different era.

A few years ago, a new neighbour spying me with one of my Leicas over my shoulder said "ah, I see you are into vintage cameras" (!) "I was just about to throw out this bag of old camera stuff - would you like it?"  One of the items was a pristine-looking Olympus OM2n with 50mm Zuiko Auto-S lens - and yesterday I put a roll of Acros 100 through it...

Very nice set, Keith. The Acros has an outstanding rendering. First and second are my favorites.

Near Tamarama or Bondi possibly? Very nice photos.

 

 

 

Thanks Philipus,

 

The place is called " Waverly cemetery" and is indeed near Bondi beach.

Thank you. That is true. However, I, too, wonder about the banding. One thing I have noticed is that it seems a phenomenon exclusive to my Barnack cameras. While very low exposure does result in high graininess when Ms- or virtually any of my non-Leica cameras- are used, the noticeable banding is not there. It may be a ridiculous speculation, but I sometimes wonder if modern emulsions reveal a characteristic, associated with Barnack camera shutter curtain action, not apparent when ancient emulsions were in use.

 

The below was taken in very low light with M3 and 50mm Summicron DR. I forget film used but am pretty confident would have been ISO 400. It was most likely developed in Rodina, and using the same develpment technique and equipment.....No banding.

I believe I have posted this before but I'm posting it again because I'm searching for a part for this camera. I took this with my Ihagee folding 6.5x9 plate camera. I use a Suydem 120 roll film back on it.

 

I am searching for a second back. I am taking a road trip through Yellowstone and the Badlands next month. I would love to be able to shoot both black and white and color.

 

If anybody knows where I can find a back I would really appreciate a PM.

This morning in Bradford, West Yorkshire UK.

 

 From my project "Living like this"

 

Leica R8 with 90mm Summicron R lens on Kodak TriX in D76 1+1

 

Hi Paul glad you join us :) and welcome

About your project I agree with your idea. 

A great society problem , must be resolved by all governments .

I have some patients who become homeless and live "outside" of the society

Very sad . Your picture shows us this "bad" side of the society.

Nice black tone

Thank you

If you look at the zone approximately 1/3 of the way down from the door knob you can see some very faint horizontal banding that spans the photograph. As this photo was taken in vertical orientation, the banding would have appeared as vertical banding if the camera was held in horizontal orientation. It is there, but to no where near the extent I have seen such banding in low exposure photos taken with the Barnack cameras.

What spectacular photos. With what did you develop the Acros?

Film was Kodak T-Max 100.

 

I hope I do get a reply or two, I'm searching all the internet auction sites and vintage camera stores I can find and coming up with nothing. The brand of back isn't important, I know many companies made them.

I'll tell a funny story about my two OM-2ns, which I decided were nice enough to deserve a trip to the US for a full CLA. They came back and there was duty owing on them based on the value declared by the repairman, despite him also saying on the customs form that they were 'returned goods'. So I paid up, took them home and completed the form on the back of the customs demand explaining they were sent from Canada for servicing and ought not to attract duty on return. To support my claim, I enclosed copies of the repair estimate, the actual bill and the original shipping documentation. I assumed I'd get my $70 back with no problem.

Two weeks later I get a phone call from Border Sevices. "Did you actually pay that amount for the repairs, sir?" Yes, says I, in all innocence. "Well in that case the cameras have increased in value enormously, and were under-declared at re-entry, we'll be sending you another bill"! Our Goods and Services Tax is a value-added tax (I know I need not describe the evils of VAT to Brits) and the buggers are going to charge me 15% on the cost of work done in the US. I'm not sure that's right at all, but for $45 extra I guess I'll pay up and shut up. The OM's are worth it.

Having taken the pair up to Cape Breton and enjoyed the convenience of two bodies, one with B&W and one with colour film, I ought to confess to having bought a second F6 so I can do the same with them.
