*Post Your Film Shots*

My father was a very accomplished Cleveland artist as well as high school art teacher and had a very productive career. I shot this in his make-shift garage studio back in 1975 using my old Mamiya C220 TLR, Kodak Tri-X Pan ASA 400 film, and likely the standard 80mm f/2.8 lens. The film would have been developed in Microdol-X. A couple of years ago I scanned the preserved negatives on my old Epson Perfection 1200PHOTO flat bed scanner. The results were some very nice 20MB TIFFs.

This is another from my portrait series of dad in 1975. Again I was using 120 rolls of Tri-X pan at ASA 400, developed in Microdol-X, scanned on my 20 year old Epson Perfection 1200PHOTO flatbed scanner. This particular scanner dropped dead when I moved to Win7 some years back. However I was able to resurrect it when I purchased the scanner driver package from Hamrick Software. I can't say enough good about it. It works perfectly in Win10 and also runs my old Nikon Coolscan V ED slide scanner. - Stu

This old EOS does a pretty good job, The lens is kinda hit and miss, but overall I'm happy. I still love my AE1P though. LOL

We took one last vacation this week before the baby arrives in May. I shot a roll of Delta 100 with the Holga 120N. I'm really starting to like this camera. I made a few accidental double exposures. I just have to remember to keep track of my shots.

Holgas look fun, especially in 120! Congrats too, by the way.

Thanks!

I haven't developed color film at home for quite a few years now. I decided to give it a try today. Here are a couple of shots from a roll of Ektar 100.

Nice shots!

Going back to Mexico City in January for two weeks by myself so I will have a lot of time to shoot/explore. When I was there 8 months ago I took my X100F and Fuji GA645i, although I didn't get any spectacular shots. I was there with a friend from HS and it was a bit of a sh¡t show to say the very least. I blame the tequila, but there could be many factors...!

Fast forward to now, I am going by myself this trip. I was planning on leaving the big 6x4.5 GA645i at home in favor of my Minolta X-700. I can shoot a lot more and for cheaper! What lens do I bring though? 35mm 1.8 or 50mm 1.2? The X100F has a 35mm FL, so I am thinking the 50mm might be the winner this time around. Any thoughts on this?

I'll be shooting mostly Portra 400 (I've got 2 pro packs in the fridge) with a couple rolls of slide film and Tri-X.

I'm stressing about gear for the first time, lol. I would just pack two lenses, however, I am a carry-on only traveler. If it doesn't fit in my Domke F-5xc, it stays home.

I vote for the 50mm. Like you said you have the 35mm FL covered by the X100F, so that'll let you switch it up for the shots. I've also found with film every extra third or half stop of aperture helps when the light gets low. Also, if you want a photo with shallow depth of field it will be much easier with the 50mm than it will be with the 23mm on a crop sensor.

Another vote for 50mm - it's just such a versatile focal length, and as Scott says, there's not much sense in doubling up with the same focal length as the X100. Between the 50/1.2 and pushing your Tri-X, shooting at night becomes very do-able.

I have a roll of pushed Tri-X on the go at the moment ready to head to the UK.

I've also finished scanning my backlog of photographs from September to early December. I'm going to switch to a more professional lab and have them handle my scanning from now on, and probably sell the V600 on now that it has fulfilled its duties of scanning the dozen or so rolls I had racked up.

I still need to go through and do dust removal on half my scans. This is from a roll in late November. I love these vans that you see in all rural Spanish towns, nipping up and down through tight, cobbled streets or up goat tracks at surprising speed. I was out my bike photographing the greenhouses and the rural landscape, and when I saw this Pueblo Van it made my day.

I think I may just take the 50 1.2, though I am eyeballing the GA645 again, LOL.
Good point with pushing Tri-X, and I can do the same with Portra 400.

Recently picked up a Yashica Mat LM. Some of the first shots I've taken with it. Portra 400
