gnuyork Posted February 10, 2017 Share #28004 Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) Right, I sort of promised the colour segment, and while they are not as simple as the B&W, I was happy that the B&W post didn't turn into a squabble match. I think most are happy to use either or both, some are film only, and I respect that, others are digital only as well, both are happy. The film shots were with the R8, and the R28-70 zoom, used Kodak 200, so a basic el cheapo colour film. Processed locally by a semi decent lab, and scanned via my Plustek 8100. Same deal as the mono, slight downsizing to match the digital dimensions. No sharpening, no mucking with them. I'd be less than honest if I said I had a faultless scanning discipline for colour, the Kodak 200 always seems to give me a bit of a cast. Digital was same as the B&W stuff, all with the X-Pro2, and this time I used the Fuji XF18-56 zoom, and where I was able to, I matched the view zoom-wise with each camera, R8 being an SLR, Fuji having an EVF. Similar/same apertures. RAW files converted with the Fuji raw convertor, then converted to a JPEG in Photoshop. Same deal as the B&W, take it all with a grain of salt, no scrapping, it's more an exercise in seeing how the two mediums stack up. Gary Top one is night and day better than the bottom (in my opinion). Even in your lower res jpg uploads I can see a big resolution/detail difference. Edit: I read some other's comments. Many thing the top one is the digital (Fugi) and the bottom one is film. Surely it's the other way around, no? If not, I've been fooled.

gnuyork Posted February 10, 2017 Share #28005 Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) I did one other, this complete with dust and colour cast from poor processing is blatantly obvious. Gary Aside from the colorcast (which can be corrected) the film shot has more oomph. I've never shot a fugi X camera, but I'm seeing less of a difference between the film and Leica M digis in some of these examples from others. Could be the file Fugi makes or could be processing. Are you shooting jps or RAW with the Fugi? Edited February 10, 2017 by gnuyork 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good times with Cinestill 50 (which I wish I could get more of) ... M7, 50mm lux asph, Cinestill 50 Henry is right. This is a clever composition from an abstract perspective just looking at the colours from my perspective. I like bright colours because I have difficulty with light shades. But the sky colour is reflected in the water and the hat and shorts are mirrored. The skin colours create the glue holding the image together- it really works well. So it all works, the subjects interacting along with abstract shape and colour together. I really like it. It's the sort of image that would work even if you hung it upside-down if you know what I mean. I think you do. The best images often work that way.
