Hi, Henry.

I left my lightmeter behind that day, as I had lost the high slide for it, and it wasn't coping well with the bright NZ light. This shot is grotesquely over-exposed, and goes to a flat, featureless gray when I bring it back down in LR.

The SWC is a fixed lens, which combines f/4.5 - 22, and shutter speeds of B, 1s - 1/500s. The problem was the operator, not the camera...

 

Thank you Eoin for your reply , next time will be better ... but I like this kind of picture

Best

The experiment with the film found in old bulk film loader I recently purchased:

 

Marking indicate Kodak Safety Film 5060, which I believe is also known as Pan X. As I understand, ISO rating is 36. This was shot with Zeiss Ikon ZM RF camera (competitor to M7) and Zeiss Jena 50mm 1.5 Sonnar. Process was Rodinal 1/100 for 55 minutes. As this was just to determine film type, and I was expecting nothing but disappointment from the found film, I did not take great care with negative. I also missed focus on the rusty nail. Camera metering was set to ISO 100. I took the same shot at 400 and found that all I had to do was adjust exposure in LR to get almost same result. It can be assumed the film was not stored in refrigerated area. It is a shame this film no longer roams the earth.

Thank you for watching and commenting

 

It's very easy Beresf ,  just stick the lens (and camera) against the glass to avoid 

reflection inside ... and on your M7 you choose first the aperture and after in A

(automatic) option  .... and let the M7 works for you

This is beautiful Christoph. I'm thinking you may have taken this during your recent visit to Sydney?

 

It's Christmas day here - Merry Christmas to all!

Phil,

 

You are right, Manly beach, 8:30 or so in the morning. I was amazed to see how busy it was early in the morning.,The surf schools started at 6am...

Thank you very much for chiming in, Philip and Eoin. I feel more reassured about the X-ray film damage. I guess that I will know for sure when I get back the film from the lab.

 

Great images in the last few pages. I hope I can contribute some soon.

Great find. A roll of Panatomic-X. A film I miss very much. Gone since about 1988. Your results looked good. It had 32 ASA. Lucky guy. Have fun with it!

 

Received sad news on xmas. In the german magazine PhotoKlassik there is a note, that Fuji abandoned Superia 200, 800 and 1600. So only Superia 400 will be left. Got this message probably a bit to late. These films are all sold out at my dealers.

 

Did someone else have informations about this?
