I don't know what artisan meant but there is a guy from Italy sells the substitute of Diafine (the formula is known) on Ebay. It works very well and it's cheap as well. I purchased several times from this source. Just search for Diafine on Ebay

Thanks. Sounds interessting. Does anyone here knows the formular?

Well, if they come out so good I'll have to give 'massive over-development' a whirl, fabulous image!

What may I ask are you using to scan?

Steve, I am using a Nikon Coolscan 5000, with VueScan software. A great combo, IMO.

Erl  - That sucks!  Sorry to hear about your accident.  That's a big cast for a broken finger!  I guess more precaution is better than less, however!  Heal fast!

This is part of how I manage my R8. The M cameras requires a different method.

, using a mini tripod jammed into the plaster caste next to my thumb.

 

Really nice, John.  Enjoy the new camera!

I won a very nice Olympus XA2 that was donated for a forum weekend photo challenge. Here's one from the first roll. I mostly use scale focus with my M6 and GR, so this is pretty familiar.
I think I'm really going to enjoy this camera. - John

Last night, the super heavy weight boxing title of the world went on tour  to Facebook and a couple of groups therein.  The reactions were mixed, although the Ektar had a very strong showing.

The match went the full 10 rounds and according to the judge (me), the Ektar won although it lost some of its torso in the fight  :) :)

I like the 3D foreground effect of the right-side of the statue Adam.

The whole thing looks like quite the early morning framing puzzler for you.

Really like your architectural compositions with low contrast, coogee. This one is very pleasing to the eye. The light and shadow play is quite nice. Edited by edwardkaraa

The dealer at ebay I mean. I have tried it and it is very good.

More grist to the mill (or, if you like, pictures from the archives). This one will hopefully lure Henry back from wherever he is, as I'm pretty sure he loves this place:

A worthy winner - despite having lost some of the early rounds, Ektar fought back strongly to take the title.

This is just great. Shows just enough, obscures just enough.

That's just beautiful, Phil!

 

And you're right. Where's Henry?

Thanks, Phil.  Somehow you even managed to get pencil grays from Tri-X.  Wow!

A true fine art photograph.    Would love to a wet print of this.

A friend asked me about Portra 400, so I re-scanned these two shots for him with my new Coolscan V and Nikon Scan for a natural rendering. I have posted them previously but thought I would post them again.

It's a great film, Edward, and suits the surroundings very nicely, I think.
