Scenes from Rome on 35mm ACROS :
OK so who knows where Kevin lives?
I reckon he has stashes of this stuff in 5x4

Really appealing, I like it a lot. Would look good on my hallway wall .
Unfortunately I could never stomach the price of Acros in 5x4, even when it was in production. I bought 5 rolls of 35mm before that holiday and still have three rolls left.OK so who knows where Kevin lives?

I haven't tried that yet, I would have had a go yesterday but I managed to use all 12 shots on that roll with the lens mounted normally.Have you reversed the lens yet to get very close? You say Distagon 80 but I know the Planar could do this, but can't remember if the lens was 80mm or 75mm.
Two photos of the same thing on two different cameras ,First one is a Praktica Nova L using the sunny 16 method of exposure second is Kodak fun saver using the press it and see you have no choice anyway method of exposure. I don't think there is a lot of difference between them and knowing what they were taken on I'm actually more impressed by the photo from the disposable !

Glad you liked them, Chris - here's some more.Bloomin' 'eck, @Kevin Allan those are brilliant pinhole images! That RSS pinhole must be tuned dead-on... and the compositions are great, too.
Love both of these Kevin
If I was confident of getting similar quality results with pinhole, I'd have a go with LF.
Well all you need is a pinhole lens board to put on your LF camera
And the very real risk of wasting a sheet of film
You could argue that you're less likely to waste a sheet with pinhole than with a lens-based LF camera, because you don't have to worry about the focusAnd the very real risk of wasting a sheet of film, well near certainty if I'm taking the photo... Although its a near certainty regardless what lens I'm using.

Or stopping the lens down, or cocking the shutter!You could argue that you're less likely to waste a sheet with pinhole than with a lens-based LF camera, because you don't have to worry about the focus
You've gone to all the trouble of choosing your spot, selecting your composition and metering, then somebody just wanders into it and stands there regardless. Ah well, maybe it gives a sense of scale? Crovie, Canon Z135, Fuji Superia 400

True dat...Could av been worse and been some ugly aging tramp like me dominating your image
... and if you backed a Chroma camera, you get a free pinhole! Wonder where mine is?Well all you need is a pinhole lens board to put on your LF camera - no need for a separate camera and then you can decide between lens or pinhole on a shot-by-shot basis. I've blogged about LF pinhole here https://filmphotography.blog/2018/08/21/pinholes-with-the-intrepid-45-camera/
This one was a potential shot for the FPotY comp back in May.

FILM - On the edge by fishyfish_arcade, on Flickr
I really like this one! The Lomo film isn’t one of considered before as in my mind i’d always likened it the looks out of their cameras but it makes perfect sense that it’s a nice film in a more sophisticated camera I realise that sounds daft but might be something I need to look into
I also have a Sureshot Zoom somewhere too, although I think it’s a 105. I’ve never shot anything through it though, perhaps a trip into the loft is in order to find it
Thanks Andy. The Lomography Color Negative 400 film is rumoured to be Kodacolor VR film that has been re-badged. Whatever the case, I really like how it looks.
I've got two Sure Shot models (a Telemax and the Z135 that I used for this shot). Both give really nice results. The other one I've used (but no longer own) is a Sure Shot AF35M II, which is an earlier model. The controls were a bit clunkier, but it had a fixed 38mm f/2.8 lens that also gave very sharp results. There are loads of Sure Shot models and I don't know how all of them fare, but I'd be happy to try any of them based on my previous experiences with the range.
