Those of you shooting 4x5, is it such that I can take out only one or two sheets at a time and then box it back up? From reading and watching some videos, it seems like it but wanted to make sure. I wanted to just try loading one, and if I get stuck just exposing it to daylight so I can practice with it.
Nikon FM2n, AI Nikkor 50mm f/1.8S, Ultrafine eXtreme 400, developed in LegacyPro L110 at 1:31 for 5.5 minutes. Three individual black and white frames shot through Tiffen #25 Red, #58 Green, and #47 Blue filters, respectively, then combined using GIMP to create a trichrome color image.
Kodak Tri-X 400 & Cinestill Df96 - Scanned using some new (to me) camera tech (Z50 & 40/2.8 Micro DX) which is much smaller and lighter than my previous setup. I'm liking it so far! I think I can move my rig a bit closer the next time I scan some negatives.
I met up with Huss in downtown Sacramento last weekend and he let me try out his Fuji GW690iii as we strolled around. Not only did he let me try out his Texas Leica, he even loaded it up with film for me. What a champ! I was very impressed with the camera and quickly took to the focal length. I definitely liked how solid the camera felt in hand. If I had one gripe, it would be that I don't own one (yet)! Unfortunately, I don't have a 6:9 scanning mask and as such, the scanned images are actually cut off. I'll have to see if I can make a custom 6:9 mask or find another way to scan the image in its complete entirety.
Thank you very much Huss! It was a pleasure to meet with you and talk about all sorts of things as we snapped and strolled around downtown. I might have a GW690iii coming my way after filing my taxes this year.
I forgot to remove the Heliopan lens hood from the 28/2.8 AI-s lens, which resulted in some very heavy vignetting on all the photos on this roll. In some instances, the "forced" vignette added a unique feel to the photo.
