re fix them in fresh fix and they should be ok

So the govt keep going on about gateway drugs i think russian rangefinders lead onto harder things like leica m4

So im now declaring my love for rangefinder camera's my names dave and i have a problem... i took a wander to my local charity shop and at last they found the collection of camera's they had. So at the bottom was a jem of a fed 4 got it for 5 quid and here are the test results. shot on poundland...

well bessy the crown graphic lives again after a re varnish and new ground glass looking forward to making a triptych of contact prints for xmas gifts this year

think the fomapan is overrated on asa, used to expose the fomapan 100 at 50-80asa so maybe the 200 would work best at 120-160

sadly a 4k res is 3840x2160 so higher than the figures you quoted for your screen so you would not be able to show a true 4k image. sorry spend all day plugging 4k for a very large tv manufacturer

5k is so when your watching a 4k video you have space for a task bar for editing the 4k footage

ive been shooting film and processing my rolls since 2009 when i started my degree in photography and had had several shows of my work in the southwest mainly shot on film.. its not a case of deciding is film for me its more whats the pro's and cons of the system i asked about in my first post...

i think 35mm has a good place but the issue is buying into a system with stupidly expensive glass with a smaller format stupid when the cost of each lens is double a canon/nikon lens

looking on paper at the idea of getting a 35mm system may be a step backwards after looking at the mamiya 645af system that is coming in at the same price and offers some great optics as well plus the 645 format is better than 35mm for quality so may be a dumb idea to spend cash on that when a...

talking of big uns ive got 5x4 and 6x9 here so that is not a problem but it will give me a very good 35mm neg tho. its a shame the contax 645 system is mad prices because i would be tempted to make a move to 645 and ditch 35mm for walk around
