Advertisement Posted June 10, 2015 Posted June 10, 2015 Hi Cuthbert, Take a look here I like film...(open thread). I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
A miller Posted June 10, 2015 Share #4962 Posted June 10, 2015 Hi Adam, Had a brief look at your set of pics. An interesting model indeed! My preference goes to pic no. 3 as her head is better separated from the background. The"model-like" shots seem too artificial for me. And perhaps I would have moved in for a close-up. As a side note: while I understand that a 28 with it's seemingly infinite depth of field is the preferred tool for spontaneous street photography, in cases like this, where quick reaction is not essential and a busy background may be disturbing, I would chose a lens setup with significant less depth of field. Having said all this, I still really like the images, well done! Best regards Christoph Many thanks, Christoph. I really appreciate your feedback. I never carry more than one lens (except when I also take out my Linhof Technika Press, which I just got a Polaroid back for, which is very cool), so the 28mm was the only card in my deck. And I literally was only able to spend about 2 minutes with his person. So this was the challenge; a very sub-optimal focal length and no time to think enough about composition, directing and making the most use of the lens. As soon as I left her, all sorts of images entered my mind as to what I should have had her do. Not much I can do about that. I do think that if I could take another crack I could make effective use of the 28mm; one just needs to think a little outside the box. She had very long extremities, which could have played well into this. All in all, it was a good learning experience and I seek to do more of this, as it really puts me on my toes and tests my wit. The fact that I may have gotten one shot that holds together out of just 5 or 6 is mildly satisfying. Thanks again for taking the time to convey your constructive feedback and all the best, Adam 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellie Posted June 10, 2015 Share #4963 Posted June 10, 2015 do you have two M7s? Nope, the color roll was just 24 frames so I loaded XP2 after this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuthbert Posted June 10, 2015 Share #4965 Posted June 10, 2015 Nope, the color roll was just 24 frames so I loaded XP2 after this. I'm asking because I have two Spotmatic Fs, one black and one chrome, and sometimes i carry both of them, one loaded with colour, the other in B&W...of course for the M7s it would be more expensive. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbealnz Posted June 10, 2015 Share #4972 Posted June 10, 2015 And they look fine Gary, I recall someone else doing this (XP2 in Rodinal), ChrisM, perhaps? His results were great as well. Might have to try this myself. Gary 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might have to try this myself. Gary Guilty as charged! The only time I put XP2 through C-41 is if I have to do a colour film at the same time. For those who haven't tried it yet: Expose at ISO 200 if you want fine grain Rodinal 1+100 About ten inversions at the start Let it stand for 30 minutes Then three inversions Stand again for 30 minutes Fix and wash as usual.
