Bonjour Henri,   I still prefer black and white film (I use almost no colour). The advantages of digital don’t mean much to me. Seeing instant results is not so useful, since what comes out of a cam

Harold nice place where you can eat delicious meals

Superb color of Ektar

M6 is still a good camera

I'll post for you some pictures of this place with my Summicon 28

Thanks for sharing Harold. Glad you join us :)

May be the second picture will be also great in color no ?

With my experience and I already post above some examples you lose

some details in black , when you converted color > b&w

Henry

 

Thank you Henry

 

Yes sometimes the choice between B&W and colour is personal taste. Whether to focus on form and function or the kaleidoscope

 

Some pictures I just take because I like the colour (again Ektar + M6/Voigt):

One can clearly see the difference with the lower contrast/more detail of the Portra vs the Ektar

 

I should branch out and maybe try a pack of 10 Portra for my next order ...

This is not from that day but dewy grass near where I had the MOT for the car one morning. I just wanted to see what it would look like on film.

This is great Adam. Does the Tecnnika Press allow shift at all? That might have straightened the verticals a bit. Still, it's a very nice photo.

Love this one Harold. Very well spotted and composed. Plus fantastic colour of course.

Well I'm feeling very stupid. Only ever having used an enlarger for 35mm before, I was only dimly aware that I needed a longer focal length lens for bigger negatives. This ought to solve my vignetting issue. Thank goodness for eBay and the numerous brands of enlarger lenses made in Rochester in years gone by.

Thanks, Philip.  The camera does have a small tilt potential.  But I am not that proficient with Schimpflug.  I will tinker a little with the horizontals and vertical in LR and see what i can come up with.

Good call, Adam. The smaller cameras do fit a niche - pocketability. I once bought a Contax T3 with just that idea in mind, but it had a fault with the film advance so i returned it and didn't bother again.

 

Leicas fitting into pockets is, of course, also a factor of how big your pockets are. Hmmm... how big your pockets are.. this applies to Leica in more than one sense of the phrase!

 

An LTM Leica with a collapsible 50mm Elmar is pretty pocketable and doesn't require particularly deep pockets either  :)

Btw, any particular ballheads one should consider for the table-top?

 

I think the KGOON is as good as it gets. I had the later large ball head but it would not rotate quite 90º to the side making it pretty useless for portrait orientation shots. The KGOON on the Leitz table top tripod makes an excellent chest pod too.

The perfectionist within is annoyed with the flare, there are a few shots with it, so either the light bouncing between the filter and front element, or simple flare, not sure, but annoyed.

 

Tripod I have is this:

https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/983551-REG/manfrotto_mtpixi_b_pixi_mini_table_top.html

Perfect for travel, cheap as chips, and light, certainly lighter than the Leitz. Whether it would hold the Hasselblad etc I can't say, try mine in August. I did use my Leitz with the SWC recently, but possibly a bit lighter than your 203++++. Ball-head is part of it, built in. For my Leitz I have the Leitz ball.

 

A-16 is the Hasselblad frugal film back, I always used them for wedding work, similar to the Bronica etc, and gives (I think) 6x4.5 dimensions. 16 shots on a roll is always going to be more cost effective than 12. The Bronica etc is "15 on", Hasselblad went one better and get 16 on. Orientation is landscape of course, but back in the days Hasselblad also made a 6x4.5V back, so portrait orientation, but of course, 12 shots, with wastage on either side, never could figure that one out. With the SCW I simply rotate the camera, but lose the eye-level bubble of course.

Gary

Sure, certainly agree on this! I've got the pixi 2.0, and that is capable of holding a bronica etrc. Which I guess is about similar in weight to a Hasselblad

I visited 2 days ago an organic farm products . Vegetables in general
are produced in this farm.
And the farmer I have known for over 10 years , in reality I know his uncle

who retire now and his nephew Sébastien took over the operation.
He agreed that I would take some pictures.
 

So here are these pictures developed yesterday

 

All are taken with my Leica MP with a Summilux 50 Asph

Film is Kodak TMAX400 ,  the first time I use this film on the MP !

 

Thanks for watching and for your comment ?

 

I hope I can post all the series in the same time

Chris , one question about developer dilution. You think it's better to dilute like you 1+50

or use pure or dilute 1+10 or another dilution . How about grain when you dilute 1+50 versus 1+10

how about contrast , defintion , b&w tone etc... better in what dilution ?

and also dev time ? I think much time when you dilute

Thanks

Henry
