philipus Posted June 14, 2015 Share #5125 Posted June 14, 2015 Usually I do the "film box end flap in the hot-shoe" thing, but either the flaps have got bigger, or the shoes smaller, as the last roll this was difficult. Perhaps I need to cut the flap a bit? Good way to remember, especially if you are trying all manner of films. I always stow films in my bag without the paper packaging and put a strip of white masking tape on the canister (or plastic cover for 120 film). I pre-mark these strips with codes I've invented for the film types I use, such as FSR400 for Fuji Superia 400, VIA100 for Belgian 100 or PTA160 for Portra 160. When I shoot a roll I put the tape on the bottom plate (or film magazine) and note the camera, motifs/events/dates, push or pull info and, sometimes, the lenses used. Works for me. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
philipus Posted June 14, 2015 Share #5126 Posted June 14, 2015 (edited) As a sidenote I must also point out how much I like 'Poundland' film (AgfaVista 200) – in fact, I prefer it, in the main, to the saintly Portra. I agree, a great film. And pushes well one stop, sometimes even two. Edited June 14, 2015 by philipus 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

honcho Posted June 15, 2015 Share #5140 Posted June 15, 2015 That said, I'm also finding myself increasingly dissatisfied with my venerable Monochrom for my more 'serious' stuff (for reasons I can't fully fathom but I think it's the clarity and resolution – just too much of it – and, for all the so-called "malleability" of the files, the tonality just often isn't right) and find even 35mm ISO 400 film is doing the trick. I've looked at the MM and it's successor from every possible angle I could to try and convince myself I wanted one. I came to the conclusion some time ago that I don't want a Monochrom at all, mainly because my MP is so important to my personal work that it would be impossible for me to justify the purchase of an MM which, frankly, wouldn't get much use by comparison. Digital cameras are soulless things and and every single one of them exists on a photographic Death Row, even Leica digital cameras and I wouldn't trust a digital M as far as I could throw one anyway. Conversely, the current film MP & MA Leicas (and every other working film Leica) deserve to be used in the hands of enthusiasts and artists. Each image I make with my MP is another step on my journey, whether the image was made as a simple record of my travels, my family or my never-ending quest to experiment with different film and processing techniques and ideas, each one is a benchmark. I just can't imagine being without my MP 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
