These were taken with the Spotmatic F. Most with the Super-Takumar 35mm f3.5, a few with the TTartisan 75mm f1.5 (Biotar copy). Love the vintage rendering of both lenses. It's not super obvious in these examples, but the 35mm really surprised me in that regard - it's sharp but not ultra sharp and a bit glowy.

These look great. Are the spotmatic shots hand held? Got some relatively slow speeds there.
Thx! Mix of tripod and hand held shots. I think it the light level was 1/30s at f5.6 at best and some of the water shots are about 1/2s at f16. The slowest I have successfully held with the Spotmatic was 1/8s but that was mostly luck.
I took this last spring but the conversion never seemed to work. I scanned it again today and tried each of the NLP Tone Profiles. Linear Gamma gave me the most dynamic range and a slight reduction in brightness made a big difference.

Some panoramas from yesterday's walk around town. MutexTech film back on a Hasselblad 500cm with 80mm f2.8 CF lens. Ultrafine Xtreme 400 developed in HC110 1:63.
I found this old Verichrome roll still in it's box - expired 2003. I did a search on iso rating for shooting, and it gave me iso 80. Just double checked, and now it says iso 50. I'm assuming my eyes were too messed up to read it correctly the first time, but I have it all shot at iso 80 now. Next, digital truth only lists two developers. HC-110 at 1+47 for 5.75min (but shot at iso 25) and something called SPD for 6min - whatever that is. I'm thinking I am off by about 1.5-2 stops currently. HC-110 for 8.5 min is my guess - here goes.
