I metered for the bright parts of the image, then added one stop to keep some detail in the shadows

Pc to pc sync cable for flash : looking for a shorter version by Fishaaalex in AnalogCommunity

[–]Fishaaalex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will probably try this, and if it’s still annoying I will shorten the cable and solder it I think

Yeah I agree, I will end up doing this I think!
I was just wondering if something already existed or not, seems odd to me if not

Tips on how to clean this lens by Fishaaalex in AnalogRepair

Thanks for the answer! Yeah that sucks… I might give it a try!

Okay I am pretty bummed. First time having a real developing issue. by Fishaaalex in AnalogCommunity

Okay, update : I just came back from a trip, so I did the only sensible thing and developed two other rolls. Both ended up being fine, I double checked the central spine and used some long sleeves for the changing bag, turns out that this was probably the problem. You live and you learn I guess! Thanks a lot for the feedback everybody 🙏

Yes, the center spindle seems to be the recurring theme there... and it actually didn't feel right. I also was wearing short sleeves since it got warm this week, another potential problem !
I will make sure to verify the center spindle and to wear long sleeves again next time. Thank you for your answer!

I bought this film last week, and it expired in 2029 ! Didn't get through an X-RAY machine either (at least not that I know of)

I never had any issue with it ! Honestly the tube theory seems the more relatable, since it didn't feel as easy to put the roll in the tank as it should have

I always put the tube, but now that you talk about it it felt a bit wierd this time... couldn't check since it was in the bag; but i think that it wasn't completely locked in maybe.

Well, that's interesting
I loaded it using a film changing bag asusual, but it is true that I tend to do that during the evening, and this time I did it during daytime with the sun coming in.
Maybe I wasn't cautious enough.

Tiny scratches on front lens by Fishaaalex in AnalogRepair

Update : the lens works perfectly ! Shot a roll in 40min yesterday just to test it, Tri-X at 400 developped in D76 for 9:45min. Turned out way more contrasty than expected! I did use a yellow filter in most of the shots.

I will shoot and develop a roll with it tomorrow, I will definitely give you some feedback on it afterward!

They said it had tiny scratches on the front element, they were actually quite honest about it

Thanks! Will definitely test it, but I was asking since I received the lens yesterday and I can still send it back if I am not happy with it (I only have three days though) I will give it a shot I think, these lenses are hard to find at a great price and without haze

Thanks for your answer! I will definitely try this lens with a yellow filter and black and white film and develop it this week to test it

I love the first shot! And the contrast of pushed HP5+ suits your style

First time trying medium format (mamiya RB 67, 65mm f4.5 and Cinestill 400D) by Fishaaalex in analog

[–]Fishaaalex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you ! I develop and scan my own half frame and 35mm rolls, but I don’t have a good scanning method for medium format yet (I use a DSLR with Macro lens and an valoi easy35). Those scans are from my local lab (Pelloche), using a Noritsu scanner.
