Advertisement Posted June 19, 2017 Posted June 19, 2017 Hi Doc Henry, Take a look here I like film...(open thread). I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
philipus Posted June 19, 2017 Share #34822 Posted June 19, 2017 Thank you Steve. I appreciate your thoughts. I don't think I ever shot APX 25 and I have no experience with Pyro developers unfortunately. But I have shot PanF which I find a bit tricky to use. In particular in the lighter areas the grain occasionally looks a bit mushy (even in 120). I actually prefer the Rollei Retro 80S to PanF. Have you tried that film? I've so far only used it in the lazy-man's developer Diafine but it seems to respond well to that in many situations. I like that it is quite grainless but still retains a bit of a 'bite' in the shadow areas. Not sure if the below examples show what I mean. And of course I'm only a happy amateur so I'm pleased if I get useable negatives when I develop myself...I do like that the 80S is quite malleable during post-processing (and that it dries very flat). I'm wondering if I should try it in some other developer (I currenly only have HC-110 and Rodinal). TTL 50/2 (11817) except last one which is with M4 and 50/1.4A Flickr Flickr Flickr Flickr One of the standouts was with Agfa APX 25 in Pyro through misty October Peak District drizzle. What an astonishing film APX 25 was, it was a sad day when Agfa discontinued it. Rollei RPX 25 is a good alternative but seems slightly more akin to Pan F, especially in sunny conditions where you can end up with unprintable negatives. 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NEIL-D-WILLIAMS Posted June 19, 2017 Share #34823 Posted June 19, 2017 You're doing something wrong. Take a look at the tonal range in Phillipus's images in #34827 compared to yours. They are chalk and cheese. A lot of your images look tonally weird, in many cases it's down to what you are doing to the files after you have scanned the neg (your black and white tea plantation images were badly mangled in pp, as is the colour image you uploaded before these). I think you need to look at what you are doing. Let's backtrack: What film & developer have you used here? Im using Tmax 400 in 135 and HP5+ or Trix320 in 8x10.............Im using LC29 or maybe it was D76...........it was one of those. Neil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Henry Posted June 19, 2017 Author Share #34830 Posted June 19, 2017 And some color At first glance , people who love digital , will say not too much corrected it is necessary to correct more. Habits are hard to get lost ! For me , the color is very soft , pleasant and relaxing , specially the green and the red is beautiful !

Thank you Wayne our rural photographer For Wayne , another picture of Master Sebastian , the "organic" farmer and his dog In France less than 10-15% of agriculture is organic and it is increasing not the case in the US ! I remind you that pesticides are the leading cause of Parkinson's disease among farmers and consumers are also affected ! Kodak TMAX400-Leica MP-Summilux 50 Asph Welcome, dear visitor!

blackandwhite Posted June 19, 2017 Share #34837 Posted June 19, 2017 I don't put a lot of pics into the "Film Forum", but I have a question... Do your images get much post processing? I mean does one still do colour corrections, sharpening, noise control etc. I for one do not...very occasional crop is all, as I prefer the raw film look (even though it is digitised from a scanner). Perhaps some wisdom from Henry on this? all best.. Most of the time I devellop, film and pictures, mostly on non-glossy / mat baryt paper (Ilford FB) , no correction filters, then scan the photograph and adjust contrast when necessary on Photoshop. Sometimes my wife scans my pics, I don't have a scanner. There's no absolute truth in photography, simply one has preferences. Mine is to work as simply as possible. But I do admire people who use zooms, close-up lenses and so on. I don't as I am not very much into too technical things. But the many many different positions / tastes / possibilities are part of the fun:-) 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
honcho Posted June 19, 2017 Share #34838 Posted June 19, 2017 Im using Tmax 400 in 135 and HP5+ or Trix320 in 8x10.............Im using LC29 or maybe it was D76...........it was one of those. Neil I would have expected a far better tonal range with any of those. How do your scans compare to your negatives? Do you have a lightbox and a linen tester (a magnifying glass will do)?
