Wayne, I do like your tricycle pics, better than Bill Eggleston's, IMO.

I notice with some of your recent images you appear to have scanning marks through the files. ie. vertical lines. Have you noticed them?

there was a bit of a discussion on that a while back. My scanner scans from top of frame to bottom so it seems unlikely it is the culprit here. I do have an Epson V800 flatbed scanner. I guess I could scan a few with that and see if the same banding occurs. Anyway, in previous discussion I came away thinking there may be a flaw in developing or exposure technique as the problem was most pronounced when frame includes open sky. However, this last roll of Svema 400 has kind of thrown a brick in the gears. The photos of the mall parking lot and the children's train ride both came from the same roll of film; one shows severe banding in open sky while the other does not show any banding. Both include open sky in photograph. Maybe it is a problem with exposure. the previous discussion was triggered by a very low light portrait of wife and one of my daughters. I believe I used incident light reading in the parking lot, while I went with reflected light in train ride shot. I will run all of the frames through the V800.

Some photos I took recently with a "new" camera.

Kodak Bantam folder, Kodak Tri-X 400 35mm respooled as 828. I am very impressed with both the film and this lens.

 

This may become my pocket camera. [emoji16] the only issue I have is that the frames are spaced a long way apart, you could easily get an extra 2 frames per roll if they were spaced closer.

Mike , impressive pictures with this camera and lens

I recognize the black and grey of TX .

 

Try to crop to see the difference in comparison with in example one M camera

It's the best way to know , like when you enlarge and print .

Thank for posting

I like the last picture with the lady

Nice grain Chris the continuous rotation gives a better result ?

Have you some more loss of gelatin (white spots on negative) versus  intermittent rotation ?

Thank for posting

Henry

No I've never seen that, except for when I mishandle a wet film and scrape it with a fingernail!

Nice lady, not realizing she and her dogs are subject, waits, so as not to interfere, while I take the photo. Midwest manners.

You are correct. It appears to be the PrimeFilm 7200 scanner. Ran negative through v800; no banding.

 

Thanks to all who have endured the banding.....and helped me.

I'll do comparison between this camera and my M one day, I'll take identical photos and crop them to compare them.

 

The young lady is my daughter, in the middle of a passionate conversation with her mother.

[gnuyork]

GN like you are there ...

beautiful but a little too black on my screen, may be providing from the conversion in b&w.

Have you the original picture ?

Thank you for posting

Yes Henry, I made them dark on purpose to make the leaves glow. Maybe I went a little overboard.

I was betting that you wouldn't find the banding with the Epson scan. Happy you made the discovery, but not happy you have an issue with the film scanner. Either way, I enjoy your photos very much, Wayne.

You know, I have two daughters (twins) about the same age. Oddly enough, the deportment and expression of your lovely daughter seemed very familiar to me................as if I was there. Such "passionate" discussions between my wife and daughters spring up frequently. I, too, have used such diversions to steal a photograph or two.

I like this thread

 

It's more and more interesting .... photography is great

Thank you Frank

 

Frank , I'll post for you my "coffee lab" (one Italian Rancilio expresso machine, one

grinding machine Rancilio just before I drink and one another grinder) . Coffee is 100% arabica

not Robusta

I buy coffee at a roaster in our city and not Clooney's coffee please

Do you have the Silvia?  I'm particular about my coffee, but i don't have an espresso machine. I usually do a Chemex or use a Technivorm brewer and I grind my beans fresh before each brew on a conical burr grinder.

Yes Wayne glad you find where is the problem

Epson scan is also a good scanner and the V800 is great specially in b&w and MF

Neopan 400 does seem to be able to handle very well subtle shifts in grey tones.  R5, 60mm Macro Elmarit-R, Rodinal.

 

 

But also handles stark blacks & whites very well too
