Beautiful images all around on this page - love the portraits, shadow play and landscapes.
Bought a mint Ricoh Diacord L on a whim and have not regretted it. Such an underrated little TLR and the meter still works very accurately. Taken on Trix rated @ 400 developed with XTOL stock and scanned in with a Coolscan 8000 and 9000

Here are some shots with the F6 and either the Sigma 50 1.4 ART or the Sigma 24-35 2 ART. Using Portra 800 and 400. A problem I discovered was going in and out of dark(er) museums etc. then into bright sun. not like with digital!

Jon,
Thank you for pointing me where to find a Pakon scanner in Europe. I've got a 'slow' F135 non-plus, which still breezes through my film rolls, compared to my Nikon Coolscan 9000.
Here are a couple of shots:

Olympus XA. A nice little camera, but I tend to push things out of focus inadvertently with my fingers.

Wow, those came out great! How did you color correct them?

Kevin,
The scans are pretty close to what they need to be. I do auto contrast, auto levels and auto colors in Photoshop, and pretty much reduce the effect of each step to something between 10-45 per cent. And I lift the shadows ever so slightly (most times just 2-5).

Paul, glad you found a pakon. They are friggin' great for 35mm! Your scans look great.
Kevin, great thing about pakon and c-41 is that the colors are almost always spot on as the scanner has the baked in Kodak color profiles for the emulsions. So unless the film is expired or was developed incorrectly, colors will be what they should instead of something else with color castes/wonky colors which takes a good bit of work in post. The two biggest benefits of a Kodak Pakon is the speed and correct colors. A definite plus if you shoot a lot of 35mm and a lot of c-41. It was on this thread when I was venting frustrations with flatbed scanning about 3-4 years ago when it was suggested to buy a Pakon. I did and have never looked back. In fact, I sold my medium format gear as I am having so much fun with 35mm.

Thoughts on tmax developer? Got a bottle of it here. Been mainly using hc-110, rodinal has been getting more use and good old d-76, which I really like. thought about going back to xtol once my supplies get depleted but wanted your opinions on tmax developer for both 100 and 400 speed films in 35mm.

I have read that XTOL is better for TMAX 400 for less grain. I had some 400 that I did w/Rodoninal that had more grain than expected. I have the chemistry but haven't mixed it up yet.

A few old trucks
These 1st two were shot on TMAX 400 with the Mamiya 7.
These were taken back in October & just got them developed.
Seems the contrast had diminished (image latency/time) so I processed them in P/S with Silver Efex
These next two were shot on Cinestill 800T, w/warming filter, also with the Mamiya

Been using rodinal for some wl2210 (basically tmy2 on ESTAR) and for tmy2. Grainier but not obscene.

Looking For Love in All the Wrong Places...
I revisited this folder of images I made for a Johnny Lee record cover about thirty years ago, and with new tools and techniques, I like it. Can't believe I actually shot TMY, as I never liked it. Actually I pretty much hated that film, but it scans pretty well. I remember we had problems with the portable strobes and ended up using a direct light instead of umbrellas or soft boxes, and that almost makes it look cut out, but it's not. The location is Vasquez Rocks Regional Park about an hour north of Los Angeles, where way too many original Star Trek episodes, tons of commercials and countless movie scenes were shot. Everything from Blazing Saddles to Big Bang Theory have shot there. I've even done product shots there as well, many many moons ago.

Hi Peter, curious about your personal distaste of tmy and what characteristic you don't like. I believe you do like tmx, at least my memory says you have stated you liked it (my memory has been incorrect before). Just curious, food for thought stuff. Thanks!

I have had grain issues with TMY & contrast. But might have been my processing
