mikemgb Posted August 3, 2016 Share #19281 Posted August 3, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) So, after a financial hiccup which meant letting my M cameras and lenses go. I'm back with iiif and 50mm collapsable Summicron. 1Bridge over the Wey by Trevor, on Flickr 2 Quarry Street by Trevor, on Flickr Beautiful photographs, I use a IIIa and 50mm Summar, I love the soft, vintage look of the photos from these old lenses. Have you tried colour film in the IIIf yet? 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A miller Posted August 3, 2016 Share #19284 Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) Adam, Your careful choice of film depending on light and colour situation is apparent once again. And no, I won't mention "spirit level finders" Rgds Christoph Thanks, Christoph. I can always count on you for a careful look. Even more careful than me, apparently. Thanks for catching the tilt, which is easy enough to correct even on my iphone Below is the corrected version. Funny you mention film choice. I have shot quite a bit of Velvia 50 in 120 format here in Israel over the past month or so. Much more so than Provia 100F or Portra 160 (whichbi also have a lot of here) The rational side of me says that i should just use the provia and that it is perfectly fine for gorgeous colors and the look i want (i have been working on a special series showcasing the many different aspects of the terrain here, and only on the side of the highway connecting Jerusalem and Tel Aviv (which includes vineyards, pomegrante orchards, sabris cacti, watermelon fields, and flower farms...) I have been shooting in late'ish afternoon or late morning light, in which everything is pretty much exposed to the same light. My emotional side has caused me to use the velvia 50 most of the time. I hope that i am not making a mistake. One issue that i am grappling with is film storage and exposure to heat. I have been keeping the film in a dark closet at room temperature and then when shooting with the film it is normally exposed to hot temperatures. I then have been (promptly) storing the exposed film in my frig. Not mich elae i really can do as i dont trust the film developers here in Israel and dont have room in my frig to store all of my unexposed film. Do you think i'll be ok? Others?

Strange effect , when I see color film of Adam, I am amazing because it's in fact a real color that you all must see So through our digital photos, it seems we have some distortion in color Very nice color Adam , I like this blue of the sky , the green of the sea ,the red of the umbrella and the beige color of the sand .

Doc Henry Posted August 3, 2016 Author Share #19289 Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) .... Reflection Incidental finding on a photo underexposed of my CCD M8 (similar for CMOS) I post to have your opinion. "Black holes" * (BH) distributed over the entire picture. Here I enlarged 100% and posted a part of the photo. Instead of the Red-Green-Blue (RGB) pixels for color + Bayer filter , "black holes" are due to a lack in the manufacture of the sensor , at the microscopic scale (at the micron µ scale) , I speak . So no homogeneity in the distribution of pixels mentioned at the time of manufacture, not possible to do otherwise.There is also a "dead pixel" that camera software must also eliminate. Thus camera software do a great job "smoothing" all impressed "square" RGB pixels + BH to give the impression of a "perfect" image (manner of speaking) when you watch at the end your picture.

Doc Henry Posted August 3, 2016 Author Share #19292 Posted August 3, 2016 ... conitnuation What it gives at the level of film (underexposed) ? It shows a certain homogeneity of the distribution of grains Red Green Blue (RGB) In general appearance of the film cropped (100%) below , anyway no black hole in my opinionLook at the foliage level ! It is without appeal , superiority of film. Sensor and manufacture of the sensor to be reviewedDigital fans will blame me , but I do not care if I make myself enemies One can not deny the evidence and we are in the thread "I like film" Welcome, dear visitor!

Very good Lux 50mm V2 lens Best Henry Hello Henry,The summilux 50 pre-asph V2 is in my opinion the best summilux 50 never made, a stellar lens, much better than the latest ASPH.... Of course in my opinion ;-) The only problem is to find the filters, it has a 43mm thread but to use the original hood it is required to use the original Leitz filters from the 80s..... For this pictures I used a Leitz GGr filter. Massimo 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I see in KR link , indeed there is a filter problem of "hood" in 43mm secondly you must correct by factor 2-3 http://www.kenrockwell.com/leica/filters.htm Best Henry Edited August 3, 2016 by Doc Henry 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was trying to under expose, but still managed to go over, and made things worse by stand-developing. RPX is a great film, but I need to get myself better aligned with it.
