Popular Post X_Beliebiger Posted December 26, 2017 Popular Post Share #44464 Posted December 26, 2017 I liked Steve's NYC series as it gives me a kind of intimate view on this city which I never visited personally.

Wayne Posted December 26, 2017 Share #44466 Posted December 26, 2017 (edited) Yes Wayne thank you ... and I add I have emotion when I look at your pictures Best Henry This is one- contre jour- of a scene that met my eyes when I emerged from a walk in the woods. Blondie, the dog that periodically escapes from the chain my idiotic neighbor keeps her on, accompanied me that day. It was a great conclusion to a wonderful walk with a fine friend. I think it quite pastoral. Miniature horses taken with miniature camera. Welcome, dear visitor!

STK Posted December 26, 2017 Share #44471 Posted December 26, 2017 Yes , Steve I agree Steve I already posted I think but post again for you some examples as I said above Case 1: M9/50 L1015577m9lux50testlf+++1000.jpg M7 Image2vnlampkp160lfht+++-950.jpg -the approximate color : of red , blue, yellow, color of bamboo ... in comparison with Kodak Portra -the background is blurred in film , not in digital (flat aspect) Saturation of all colors with digital All pictures are uncorrected of course DNG and TIFF (Nikon Coolscan 5000) convert JPEG Same lens , same moment , same place. I really notice colors and keep in memory when I shoot Also notice "sharpness" of sensor and "softness" of film Best Henry Thank you Henry. I like these comparisons very much and give an idea of the differencies. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Ricoh Posted December 26, 2017 Share #44473 Posted December 26, 2017 (edited) Steve and Philip I don't corrected , no post processing Directly DNG and TIFF and convert to JPEG for post Best Henry All credit to you, Henry! All images shared on this fabulous thread are digitised in one way or another, whether a negative, slide or print. The traditional way would be to produce a wet print in the darkroom, or to project, but scanning must impart a characteristic of its own, the characteristic of the CCD for example. If the last statement is true, we should consider scanning as a hybrid process one step removed from purity, yes/no? When it comes to colour, my attraction to the use of colour film is the uncertainty and the wierd effects from the likes of Adox Color Implosion (RIP), and possibly Ektar to a lesser degree, but more easily sourced. I'm not sure I want my colour images to appear exactly in line with my human vision, unless of course I'm trying to record as accurately and as faithful as possible. But for me art is more about interpretation, with the help of emulsion designers. The uncertainty factor is a definite pull for me.

I just purchase 2 news batteries for my digital M ... when batteries are no longer produced by factory and Leica the camera will no longer work like the DMR R8/R9 Best Henry It is true. And, possibly, it goes further. Suppose you do successfully preserve a digital file for all time. How do you control how the image is processed and reproduced in future? in my ignorance of the process, I consider that a new generation of OS may take the exact same information, even if perfectly preserved through electro-magnetic means, and turn out something different. Of course, as pointed out by Steve, the digital reproduction of a negative- through digital means- is subject to same, but at lease the negative can be processed through other means less subject to change.

Digital is like an eternal treadmill at the whim of manufacturers to increase sales. As I see it, digital cameras are now hitting peak, I suspect the smart phone will win. Basically they're the same, but one has a bigger lens. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
