Seeing where your focus is, she is not the only one who was fascinated :naughty:

Despite there being a new section, I'll continue to post in this amazing thread until it dies.

Anyway, here are 2 from HuangShan (yellow mountain) in Anhui Province, China.

Film is Kodak Portra 400vc, tamron 19-35mm lens with a cokin style cheap chinese ND grad.

That first shot of the yellow mountain would look great in a large print.
 
Got to agree with Liam and Brian, that mountain pass shot is amazing.
 
Picked up my latest roll from the developers..

Well today was one of those days. I had decided I was going to shoot film today and so I loaded up my SP2 put on a super tak 55f/2.0, loaded it with Ilford delta 400 and left for Venice. Normally I am pretty happy to have a few good shots, usually 1/2 the roll, but today, Nothing....I think more than anything, it was the lens. It was too long for what I am used to, hence there is nothing personal about this roll. No life.
Having said that, these where the only two I sort of liked.

All taken in cornwall







a good few years ago with tri-x rated at 1250asa







using a long gone and much loved olympus OM1 with 50mmf1,8








sorry there so small:cool:
 
nothing special - but my first roll of colour film in years

bought a Nikon F3 some months ago
and finally some lenses - so added a roll of 'cough' Boots colour film, and went for a walk
dev and scan to CD at Boots ..£9 - not cheap - may as well use pro-Lab like Club 35

quite pleased - F3 with Nikkor pre-Ai 28mm, so had to use Exposure meter - Weston Master V - took me back 50years..:D

first try with Photobucket ...........so

****F3 with Nikkor pre-Ai 28mm, so had to use Exposure meter - Weston Master V***

Huh...erm with the problem of using M42 lenses as well....a Nikon is limited compared to my Canons and Minotas. ;)
 
.
'limited' ...:shrug:..... depends what one needs
mainly a Nikon D5000 if I'm out doing "serious stuff"

. but the F3 is 'pleasurable' to use
I could buy a Nikkor Ai-S which would meter - prefer to use the Weston
nowt wrong with the image I would think...:thinking:

also have a Canon A-1 with 6 FDn lenses, so certainly not biased...:D
 
Our phone line was down for several days - a nightmare!

Anyway, hi to you all. Here is a picture of a guy taking a picture (wearing shorts - ahhh) :)

Nikon F3 - 35mm F2 - Fuji 400CN - Genie

I am starting to get some withdrawal symptoms from not using my crown graphic, but I do have over 100 sheets in the freezer including some portra so bring on the christmas holidays!
 
another from the walk with the Nikon F3
.


is film able to capture a wider range of tones than DSLR as the dark leaves and lighter grass both seem to be ok...?
 
Negative film (colour and B&W) certainly has a wider dynamic range, there is much less in slides but I think there's still more there than DSLRs can handle, especially when shooting jpg.

thanks.....hope to get my Canon A-1 back soon [away for TLC] so may indeed try some more colour film
 
They're only £1500 or so, not exactly something you need to sell a kidney for :shrug: About the price of a couple of decent modern lenses.
 
compare that to a 100 for a film camera ! :p .

yes, a fullframe canon mkII 5d with video and everything is acctually a bargain for about 1500, but still.
 
I know, I know - 1500 does buy you a couple of EOS-1v's and enough left over for a BIG bag of film :)

My point is, it's still far more affordable than my last couple of hobbies (Mountain Bikes and fast motorbikes... still not exactly Champagne, Charlie and Hookers!)

Never said I'd sell one of my OWN kidneys now did I...

Plenty of oxygen thieves around here that wouldn't be missed ;)
 
Even the FF like the 5dII (I have one) haven't got anywhere near the range and 'MP' of 35mm film. Then when you talk MF or LF film ... well !:LOL:

You're in west yorkshire too, mate - you should know what it's like - I live half way between the Rhubarb Triangle and the Liquorice Fields - and it always amazes me, with all those purgatives available, just how full of **** most of the people here are :LOL:
 
Well I was impressed with N. Yorkshire (E of York), is that where the better class of people live ;)
