You can't drive to Texas to meet some rescue dogs and not take a 16 hour detour to Marfa

Night photography still remains the ultimate challenge to me in film photography. The internal meter in the Pentax MX did a pretty good job.

However without editing the shots would not be fully to my liking - contrast for example, or some artifacts. I am not sure of parts of it is related to the scanning.... Anyhow, this means I need to shot even more and become better

I take the chance to give a strong recommendation for darktable, which is an excellent tool for photographers in many ways!

Dang, you certainly got the timing right. No harsh midday light here. Lovely!

Haha thanks. With my small kids, I never get to go out during good lighting and usually am stuck with midday lighting. It reminded me how much more beautiful it is at sunrise.

I personally err on the side of lots of overexposure at night. Lately I just take a meter reading with my phone app and then plug in the reading into the reciprocity timer app. Then I usually add even more time on, sometimes doubling it.

Fuji Velvia 4 x 5 transparency scan including edges and developing clip marks of the sheet film just for fun. No Lightroom work other than a small increase in exposure and contrast plus sharpening (the drum scans arrive a little flat and dull). The color cast is a result of being lit by a blue sky in shade. The scene is monkeyflowers in the Paradise River high on the flank of Mount Rainier, WA.

I’m loving my new compact scanning setup. It gives me consistent results with much less dust when scanning with perfect lighting.

so cool, I have the same scanner. But for my Sony A7RV I'm using the Sony FE 90mm f2.8 Macro G OSS. I read on the Valoi website or somewhere else that up to 100mm is okay - hopefully that's right.

It should work. You just need to experiment with the included rings to see which one is needed to get the film perfectly focused with minimal cropping. I like the Laowa for its compact size and sharpness. It also focuses down to 2:1, providing more flexibility to achieve the perfect focused frame. One thing I’ve noticed is that 60MP is overkill for scanning film. Next time, I’ll likely scan at RAW “M” (26MP), which is more than sufficient for scanning film.

My daughter got so enthusiastic shooting with a point and shoot digital camera from the 2000s.

I recently ran into some 20 somethings who were using the same sort of camera. They asked me if I could take a pic of them w it, and in return I handed the girl my camera and asked the same.
