John Robinson Posted March 11 Share #92785 Posted March 11 On 3/8/2025 at 4:11 PM, Suuumm55 said: digital photo - converted to film mode can it compete with real film photos? thanks for your opinions...... While it is possible to apply filters or profiles to digital images which claim to emulate the "look" of various film stocks (I have yet to be convinced by any of them), the one thing that cannot be changed is the method of image capture. An image taken on film means that the film was present in the camera when the image was taken and hence a primary contribution to the "look" of the final image is the choice of film stock. No amount of digital manipulation can emulate this basic fact of film capture. The closest that digital cameras can come to this is to compare how different sensors respond to light. I certainly recall looking at images from an M8 and thinking they reminded me a little bit of Ektachrome whereas the images from the M9 were more like Kodachrome (perhaps no accident they were sensors made by Kodak) but that is not a subject for a forum about the use of film stock. Compare using a film camera with (still) a range of film choices against digital where needing choice at the point of capture suggests owning a number of different cameras and one of the (many) attractions of film becomes apparent (unless your camera-purchasing budget is extremely generous). 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fotomas Posted March 11 Share #92787 Posted March 11 Advertisement (gone after registration) Analog strikes back Here another on from the series of early Sensorpest-simulation from 1989. Long before one even could think of that digital cameras like today will be around.😁 Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! Here some background for those that are interested: The Metol-sulphite developer I used has faded away without a clear indication. Normally you could see this if it get's a yellow color, but here it was only rather slightly. Since it was the first time that happened I couldn't hear the whistles. So two films came totally clear out of the tank. Only the beginning of the film that was outside the cartridge shows a slight brown color. I was not willing to accept this and dig into the literature if there was something could be done about it. I found that theoretically it is possible to first fix the film and develop it afterwards with an physically developer. But for this the film has to be overexposed 1000 times and needs to be absolutely free of fog. It was only used to proof the existent of the latent image. But what could I loose? So I mixed up this developer and treated the films with it for quite a while. Thereafter I had rather thin negatives. So I go on with some mercury iodide intensifier and in the end a sulphide toning. In the end I had close to normal negatives, but with lots of traces of what went wrong. And it added the magic of something being rescued that was not meant to be to the picture. 12 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members!

As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! Spent three hours in the darkroom with this one print. So close but discovered some water spots on the top of the film that were not evident when I scanned. Even tried to rewash the negatives with some photoflo but ended up scratching the corner of the negative, arghh... one of those days. At least I have this image and I'm still happy with the prints even with the watermarks (they are somewhat subtle) but you can't unsee what you've seen...

I had the same thoughts after using the wrong part of a two bath developer resulting in clear negative. Because I haven’t had an intensifier at my shelf that time I decided to throw away that failed negative. Now I would definitely handle that differently. Thank tou for the hint. Cool effect by the way Edited March 12 by Tmx 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
