Chihuahua. It makes me smile just to type the name. And inspecting you with cocked eye, no less. Priceless. Thanks.

 

And, now that I see my quote causes a re-post of the image..............I feel absolutely no guilt. In fact, I would do it on purpose. :)

Very lovely, Michael.  

 

 

Very nice portrait Michael which shows his character well. What film and developer?

 

 

Thank you both for kind comments. 

 

This is now an old negative - Ilford XP1. Right from the start Ilford's chromogenic film knocked my socks off. Sharp, very fine grain with long and beautiful tones. Today's XP2 Super is even better.

These two photos were both shot with the M3 and the DR Summicron 50 on Tri-X, developed in D76. The second was shot a year ago and may have been posted then, but I'm including it here with the first picture to show how different it is in its more prominent grain: if I tried to get anywhere near the gradation of the first image, the grain would became much uglier. Granted, the image is shot directly into bright, harsh noontime sunlight, but could have something gone wrong in the development in the lab to give a look that is so different from what I usually get with D76?

...me too when I scan with Nikon Coolscan 5000 in Tiff 16 bits in sRGB I have the same size

as you ie 118 Mo in color (and in b&w like you 40 Mo in Tiff 16 bits)

and with the same image in color in comparison (same camera digital M and analog M) I obtain 10 Times

less 12 Mo in Raw-DNG (Adobe Lightroom 16 bits) DNG= Digital Negative created by Adobe...

 

The statement that a TIFF file from a scan will be some 3-10 time larger than a DNG file from a digital camera of the same image is a tautology: it stems from a how these two type of files are structured. This basic information is easily found on the web to any degree of detail that you wish.

 

The issue that was being discussed was your earlier statement that a scan was better than a camera digitization because the scan would produce a TIFF of about 120MB while the digital camera digitalization would produce a DNG of only, say, 12MB. Actually, when I digitalize a 35mm film frame with the M10, I get a 30 MB file but when I export that file as a TIFF from an image processing program I get a file of about 140 MB: the same information is in both files, but the exported TIFF is about 10 times larger — for the aforementioned reason.

I really like your museum series Jean-Marc. This one takes the cake, for me.

I'm afraid I don't know D76 but I do like the photo with the lady.

Wow, what do you use for flash, a Sun? Terrific.

It's been awhile since I've had the time to get out and shoot some film, but I finally put a couple of rolls through the M7 this past week.

 

M7 + Nokton 50/1.5 + Provia 100. "Scanned" with an A7ii + Tamron SP 90mm Macro and lightbox.
