chrism Posted April 2, 2017 Share #30006 Posted April 2, 2017 (edited) How do you "under-develop"? Under-expose, I can understand, but under-develop a shot? I'll go make the morning coffee. Gary Under-developing is a perfectly normal accompaniment to over-exposure. It's what we refer to as 'pulling' (as opposed to 'pushing') a film. The point is to give more light on exposure to the darker parts of a scene so as to illuminate them, then save the over-exposed lighter parts of that scene in development by not allowing them to develop as much. So you end up with more metallic silver in the dark parts of the subject (ie the light parts of the negative are darker, and in the positive they will be lighter), and less metallic silver in the light parts (ie the dark parts of the negative will be lighter and in the positive they will be darker) than you would have expected. That is to say, less contrast, shrunken dynamic range, and maybe, just maybe, everything in the scene photographed will show up in the final print with some detail and not just white or black. Take all that kind of idea a bit further and you will end up in the zone system and developing each frame for the best result, which is the bee's knees for sheet film, but not so useful for 35mm or MF film, since you cannot expose and develop each photograph individually. I think you already knew all that, but somebody might benefit from seeing it written out. Double negatives confuse, but triple negatives really mess things up. I know that you knew that I knew that you knew that already! (I think...) C. Edited April 2, 2017 by chrism 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Posted April 2, 2017 Share #30007 Posted April 2, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Milan, Indiana. It is "Final Four" time in USA college basketball.....in American sports, an event to rival Super Bowl. Basketball has become somewhat of an international interest, so some may have seen the great movie "Hoosiers," starring Gene Hackman. For those who have not, it is an inspirational, sports movie featuring the story of a high school basketball team from a small Indiana town. In America, it is considered one of the great sports movies. In the movie the small town is identified as Hickory, Indiana. In fact, it is the story of the 1954 high school basketball team from Milan, Indiana. I had the good fortune of meeting a Milan resident as he was taking his morning coffee and cigarette break. He was very willing to share what he knew of the event and team. Of particular interest to him, was the recent news that, now, all members of the former team managed to stay in their marriages for 50 years, or more. Welcome, dear visitor!

Guest )-( Posted April 3, 2017 Share #30008 Posted April 3, 2017 (edited) @Ian - I'm really enjoying all your great countryside shots with your Summaron. Fantastic stuff. How do you find /5.6 and 400 speed film? Are many of these shots 'wide open'? @Henry - You should jump on that 21m Super Angulon! A perfect lens for film. No metering and no built-in viewfinder but thanks to the latitude of film, so what! I just use Sunny 16 and scale focus and only look through the 21mm Viewfinder. 21mm is a pretty familar FOV in any case. It's great for architectural straight lines, just perfect, and on colour film it gives a superb character/imperfection for me. A couple more examples with it. I also spent the weekend in the laundry (my darkroom), making little 5x7 prints from 6x6 negatives. Just an awesome way to spend a weekend, I'm only sorry it's Monday morning. I don't have a way to scan prints to share, and to be honest the more I wet print, the less motivated I am to scan all the film I expose. @Philip - those 400 speed colour negatives were scanned with a Pakon F135 - the Kodak magic in the software means I rarely do any PP on them, just removing dust. I think it really nails the colour and exposure pretty much every time. I prefer 400 speed colour film in general for its subtle grain. Feed and forget scanning is much more appealing, and I don't print colour negatives 'in house'. Unfortunately I don't like the results I get for B&W with it, or I'd throw those through it as well.

wattsy Posted April 3, 2017 Share #30010 Posted April 3, 2017 (edited) @Ian - I'm really enjoying all your great countryside shots with your Summaron. Fantastic stuff. How do you find /5.6 and 400 speed film? Are many of these shots 'wide open'? Many thanks. Very few if any are wide-open. I try and avoid F5.6 if I can – the vignetting starts to come into play (though not as noticeably as appears to be the case with this lens on a digital M) and the corners are soft at that aperture. I also prefer a more stopped down look and tend to use the more "natural" depth of field you get from subject placement and focus distance. In the main, I haven't had a problem using 400 speed film and this lens for the type of photography I tend to do. 100 speed film is likely to be a different case and I'm pondering my options here as I have quite a large stock (by my standards) of T-max 100 that I want to start using again.

Fotoklaus Posted April 3, 2017 Share #30011 Posted April 3, 2017 Finally I managed to shoot some pics on film again. Rolleiflex 3,5F, Tmax 400, D76. I also made some slides from this beautiful Magnolia, but not developed, yet. This old industrial building will be gone in some weeks, but nature refreshes every spring, no matter what we do.

Sent from my SM-G903F using Tapatalk Like all movies, some things are not exactly true. The Hackman character does land this job as a sort of last chance, related to a problem in previous employ as a coach; I do not think, in movie, drinking had anything to do with it. There is, however, an issue with a drinking assistant coach. It does have great human interest aspects.......Aside from the basketball. Best Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
