Hi All, we are in a thread "I like film" and I'm just showing you what I see....

You can believe me on word or picture, but you are of course free to do what you want.

I try to be a purist to show that the film has a lot of possibilities and you have to make sure to bring out all that the film has as quality

in color as in black and white. I also have the experience of my 8 digital years where I convert color to black and white and I talk about  it here with this experience.

That's all , these comparisons that I show you and that I share with you can help some and think about it when you do the conversion. I also can not share it and keep it for me , may be it's easier.

It is obvious that a well-exposed image where there is no shadow is not concerned by what I showed you above .

 

Happy New Year Everyone.

Best

Henry

beautiful, restrained colour Henry - and 'tumbling down the wall' composition.  I am currently shooting some cheap Kokak colour 400 ISO I found in a store, because I had an itch to use the M4 over Christmas.  Do you think the accuracy of the colour in your photo is attributable to the Tetenal or the Coolscan or the Portra?

thanks

Dan

P.S. apologies in advance - I just realised that you posted this days ago, and you have probably answered similar questions about this photo - I will run through the subsequent posts to check

This is an excellent shot, X_B - I love it.

Thanks a lot!

 

As many times, I had to react very spontaneously in this case. The light was read, I saw him and had the Standard on the seat beside me. I just shot out of the side window, it was rainy, and without any check up for light situation before. On the photo I like his face. He reminds me a little bit on Alfred Hitchcock ...

Hi Dan , first thanks for your comment and you are welcome 

M4 is a good camera

 

 

For your questions , I can tell you many several factors can intervene:

1-The development of the film with Tetenal . This product is my favorite developer because no problem of color after development

2-the Coolscan intervenes less but I do not touch the factory setting (red green blue are calibrated at the factory) and I use the

Nikon software no Vuescan or Silverfast

3-certainly the film is the most important if you like Kodak colors, go for it, a little expensive compared to other brands but beautiful color

Kodak Portra's hot color is my favorite film

 

Happy New Year Dan

Best

Henry
