'Little Venice' London with Dynax 5

[pentaxpete]

First results on C41 Film of a Long Boat trip in 'Little Venice' Regent's Canal, London
I used my 2001 Minolta Dynax 5 loaded with 08/2007 dated Kodak Colorplus 200 which I rated at 160 ASA. The negs were a little 'Thin' so next batch I will rate at 100 ASA to make up for being outdated. I scanned negs on my old Epson 1650 flatbed + Vuescan Pro + PhotoShop 7 and very little adjustment had to be done. Lens was the Minolta AF Zoom 28-100mm f3.5-5.6 D mostly at f5.6 on AV programme.

…next time you want to got that film I suppose you'd
have better chance in an Antiques shop!

Surprisingly, it kept a good DR though the emulsion
seems to have lost quite much of it bite…or was it the
Dynax that is a tad soft, Peter?

Good Morning Mr Kodiak : Well I think the slight under-exposure had an effect -- I have some MORE of that batch in my fridge so will give it more exposure next time and maybe use a PENTAX !
