p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · A few shots from 35mm film.


Hi, all. I've browsed the forums for a while but have never posted anything. I'm a photo hobbyist...it's a hobby I've been into since I was a kid in the mid-1980's. Currently own a Canon 5D Mark II and a Canon 7D, and a handful of 35mm SLRs. I shoot film for fun and as a way to 'archive' photos of my family. I just got some film processed/scanned (The Darkroom) and thought I'd share. These are shots of my sister's family - I recently visited them for the holidays.

Camera used: Canon Elan 7NE.
Film: Kodak Portra 800 (shot at 400)
Lenses: 85mm f/1.8 USM, 24-70mm f/2.8L.

These are great Did you develop these (The darkroom)? Just bought some film myself, and going to give it a shot.

Thank you! I really enjoy how light looks on film, and the vivid colors of Portra 800 when it is shot at 400 (overexposed).

No, "The Darkroom" is one of the labs I send my film out to. They're based out of San Clemente, CA. I have developed B&W film in the past, but I currently don't have a place I can do that right now. One of these days I'm going to convert a bathroom into a darkroom.

Nice images. Really like images 3 and 4 (wish the boys were looking at the camera in 4).

Are you doing your own scanning, or is your lab scanning them for you?

If you're doing your own scanning what scanner are you using?

Thanks.

Thank you!

I really wish the boys were looking in image 4 as well. That's one thing I don't like about film - not knowing if you got the shot, especially if children or pets are involved. I managed to get a good shot of everyone with a DSLR (attached), though. Shot with my dad's Canon 5D Mark III and a 85mm f/1.8 USM lens. 1/100sec, f/1.8, ISO 640.

As for the scanning, I'm just going with the lab scans for now. I'd like to get myself a good scanner at some point in the near future, as I've got quite a few slides and negatives that I'd like to scan for sharing purposes.

Thanks for the comments!
