Thanks for the link Viablex 1,have been there before but the soft version is new to me,the price is new too!Has to be expected though,it will always be worth it.Wether I can afford it is another question.I have 8 packs left.
I hear you it is expensive, I cleaned out my local walgreens, I hear that fuji will be marketing their instax products now. But I just bought an old sx-70 and some film for that!!

keep them coming very cool!!!

Another from the Mamiya TLR. I really need to dig this camera out of the closet and start shooting again.

C220, 80mm lens (I think), B&W film (most likely Ilford FP4), Epson 2450 scan.

Cleveland Ohio.

Beautiful image William!
One does not need ultimate sharpness to create an evocative image!

I am intrigued by the black margins; Is this a scan of a palladium print?

All the best,

Francois

Francois,

Thanks for the kind comment.

This is simply a scan of a print. The black borders are the result of myself filing out the neg carrier to be able to produce a black border. In this case I decided to include the whole border which explains the uneven structure.

Cool shots Jeremy -- love the second one.

I was shooting the R9 again recently...I have not been using it very much, but my lord, the lenses are so nice. These aren't the greatest pictures, but I love the way the latest 50mm summilux R looks. This is the E60 version. Here are two taken wide open:





I have the 50mm f/1.4 ASPH for the M, but I really like the way the 50mm f/1.4 E60 draws -- it is sharper than the old Summilux M (and doesn't have the ring bokeh), but not blazingly sharp like the summilux ASPH. It is the perfect balance in my view...

Here is one from a few years ago -- it has the great balance of very sharp in focus, but really gorgeous bokeh.

Stuart, you might like the Hexanon 50/1.2. :thumbup:

I failed to resist temptation and got my self a Pentax 67 with 105mm lens. Fantastic camera and the ease of handling is just perfect to me.

Here is a shot from my first roll ( Trix @400). These big negs are nothing short of fantastic.

Hope you enjoy.

Nice William -- I think people believe the mystique of medium format comes from the greater resolution over 35mm...I think it is more of a function of depth of field.
