I sent a copy of this picture to the forum about 10 years ago, and this is a new and better “print”. I still like the picture. XP2, 50mm Welcome, dear visitor!

Advertisement Posted September 3, 2017 Posted September 3, 2017 Hi Michael Hiles, Take a look here I like film...(open thread). I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
A miller Posted September 3, 2017 Share #39482 Posted September 3, 2017 Phil - This is truly outstanding. So many facets at play; the motion of the waterfall, the rolling stream and the wealth of tonality. Really stellar!! I don't have the Hasselblad any more, but I'm looking forward to putting some FP4+ through the Mamiya 7 soon. It is just a wonderful film, especially I think in medium format: hopetoun falls, 2012 hasselblad 500c/m, 150mm sonnar, ilford fp4+ Phil - These are also amazing. Each has its own strong points, but my preference is the B&W b/c of the way you have captured a wide tonal range in the leaves. Having said this, I could totally see how one could go either way; or be squarely (and painfully) on the fence! Actually, here's a pair, taken at the same time as the last waterfall photo, using the (very useful) facility of interchangeable backs of the Hasselblad. Both taken using superb films - FP4+ and E100VS. I chop and change a bit over which one I prefer - do you have any thoughts either way? hopetoun falls, 2012 hasselblad 500c/m, 80mm planar, kodak e100vs (top) and ilford fp4+ 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the color shot it seems almost to be growing out of the frame. Best, Wayne 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

erl Posted September 3, 2017 Share #39490 Posted September 3, 2017 God Hasselblad 503CW Tmax 400 Neil, a great pic, not sure how you did it. A bit of 'photo magic' I suspect. I see traces of processing marks in the sky area. I don't think it is scanning artifacts. If you can clean up those artifacts, it will make a great hardcopy blowup!

Guest Nowhereman Posted September 3, 2017 Share #39497 Posted September 3, 2017 (edited) For some time I have been contemplating to acquire a BEOON myself. I would be very interested in your experiences, setup and workflow, once it is established. I would specifically be interested in how you handle lighting, distancing, positioning and film transport/image alignement. Perhaps you could consider opening a new thread on this? (I currently have two dedicated film scanners, one for slide magazines and one for film rolls, but both suffer to some degree from banding artefacts, sometimes barely visible, but in homogeneous midrange clear skies they can be a nuisance, thus I would be grateful for an alternative)... Mathias - There are several LUF threads that discuss the setup for, and quality of, BEOON digitalizions. See this thread, which I started when I was surprised how good my combination of BEOON + M10 + Focotar 2 was for digitalizing transparency film: basically I feel that I'm getting quality at least as good as I got with my old Imacon Precision III scanner (6300 true optical resolutions and dMax of 4.2) — with the speed of 5-10 sec per frame. I was also surprised that these files required substantially less post-processing adjustments than I had to for the Imacon scans. Here are a few examples of Kodachrome digitalizations that, in my view, reproduce the look of the film as opposed to having the look of the M10: Leica M3 | Summicorn 50 | Kodachrome 25 Leica M6 | Summicorn 50 | Agfa Scala Sop Kai Village , Mae Taeng, Chiang Mai Leica M3 | Summicorn 50 | Kodachrome 64 Leica IIIc | Summitar 50 | Kodachrome II Northern Uganda (1965) on the way to Karamoja Leica IIIc | Summitar 50 | Kodachrome II Kampala 1965 _______________ Alone in Bangkok essay on BURN Magazine Edited September 3, 2017 by Nowhereman Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also thanks for sharing these very impressive results! Sadly, just now the BEOON seems to become quite scarce/ overpriced. There is currently none on German e-bay or from any of the mainstream Leica vintage dealers. Maybe too many people are reading this forum ;-) Kind regards Mathias Edited September 3, 2017 by schattenundlicht Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
