Thanks for all the comments, I was quite dissapointed to get so little good shots out of what i shot but thats the nature of film i suppose, especially when your just starting out.
very nice, like them all, unfortunately they are over the size guidlines ofr the forum, 800 pixels on the longest side.
Have had to break the links sorry.
Edited the first post with smaller versions now.
Very nice shots, the strip down the side could be light seals or the film could have come unraveled a slight bit when you took it out of the camera? did you bracket your shots?
Will see if its there on the next rolls i put through, its the skipping frames thats bothering me more. I did bracket the shots but alot of them came out with an under exposed foreground but i guess theres nothing much you can do about that unless you have filters.
Damn, those are good. Would love to know what settings you used on the 'Blad?
These are the kind of shots that entice people to try out M/F - well done
Havent been writing down the settings for each shot but think ill probably get a small pad for next time .
They are really stunning. Can I ask a couple of questions?
What film do you use?
Where do you get them developed?
How do you scan them?
Do you process the scans at all?
Now that medium format is becoming afordable I am getting tempted...
The last 2 shots were fuji astia on the 'blad and the first two velvia on the bronica. Velvias definitely my favourite film now, as soon as i get a tripod attachment for the blad im gonna put a few rolls through it.
I get them developed at peak imaging, there not the cheapest around i think its about £3.40 a roll but i posted these on monday morning and got them back on wednesday.
Scan them myself at home on an epson v500, not cheap but with it being about 15 pounds a roll to get it developed and scanned to cd from peak it wont be long until its payed for itself.
Just did a quick process on these ones cropping and sharpening and i think a tiny bit of contrast on a couple but the colours are pretty much as they are on the slides. Also did some quick cloning as i cant seem to keep the slides clean at all, they go straight from the sleeve to the scanner but still end up with dust on them somehow. I think i might rescan some of them at a higher resolution and do a panoramic crop.
Horizons are off..... I had to say that cos wow
Stunning detail there.
echoing everyone else's comments; just stunning results. can't add more I'm afraid!
p.s. get a spirit level
I never used to understand why people used spirit levels with dslrs but now i can, i find it near on impossible to get straight horizons with the waist level finders, find myself pointing the camera in the totally wrong direction sometimes aswell.
