gsgary Posted November 27, 2016 Share #24361 Posted November 27, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Very high ISO. Last night my wife and I hosted a combined 50th birthday party - she's 50, I have a month to go - I took my IIIA with me loaded with Ilford Delta 3200 film, the places we went were dark so I pushed it to 6400 ISO. I processed with Ilfosol 3 for 18 minutes, grain is golf ball sized but I expected that before I even took the photographs. I'm going to try this again but I intend to experiment with other developers to see if I can get a finer grain. Leica IIIA, Summar 5.0cm, Ilford Delta 3200 pushed to 6400 ISO.

I had the local Leica repair guru refurbish it, it cost a small fortune after it needed new shutter blinds but in the end it would have been criminal to not do anything. After all it's 90 or so years old. Front element is not perfect, it would be great to fix that. Gary. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary If it can be useful for you we have in France (not Wetzlar) a specialist of screw mount and he is not expensive . He worked for Leica France before . If you want next time you come here , bring the camera with you and give him . But I think you must write him a mail first (If you want , I will sent you in MP his address and phone) Good camera without lightmeter !

Best Henry Gary and Henry, I am afraid to say that no one offers any polishing services in France anymore. it is very unfortunate. No one anymore in Brazil either. I have just sent a lens yesterday to Focal Point Inc in Colorado as John Stelten still does cure uncementing, fungus and does polish and apply new coatings. Gary, which Elmar do you have on your 1a? https://www.cameraquest.com/leicaa.htm Cheers, JM, old lens freak. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith (M) Posted November 28, 2016 Share #24379 Posted November 28, 2016 If you can stand it, here are yet another two from last week's test roll of Tri-X in my 'new' Hasselblad 500C + Planar 80mm. 1) Old Coach Road Up until the mid-18th Century the road between London and Bath crossed the Marlborough Downs. The is photo shows that stage-coach route where it crosses Manton Down between Marlborough and Chippenham. The copse is aptly named 'The Beeches'. Must have been an uncomfortable and slow journey! 2) Rockley Down viewed from the edge of Rockley village. The village is in a valley bottom before the climb up onto the Downs. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
A miller Posted November 28, 2016 Share #24380 Posted November 28, 2016 Ah, a non-SWC shot, and no schmootz either, well done. Lovely colours. Gary Thanks, Gary. Oh yes, there is schmootz, it is just well hidden with the camouflage of the bokeh. I am beyond livid as even the replacement rolls that Cinestill gave me when I complained last Spring mostly had schmootz. There is a back story that will come out in due course. In the meantime, I think the camo of the bokeh sufficiently masked the pain and produced a beautiful film rendering. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
