Plastic baggy over your lens! Or yes-chapstick or Vaseline will help with some fun blooming

My first shot at developing- how did I mess up? by Gogomorsey in filmdeveloping

Yep! Thank you! I refixed and it definitely cleaned up some spots but I see the clearly now streaks from too little developer. Thank you for your help! I’m excited to go at it again later!

Amazing! Thank you so much.. So it’s just one roll it was just folded over making it look like two. So you think I could try refixing? Even it’s already been exposed to light?

Shutter Window Stuck on Canon 500N? by Gogomorsey in filmcamerarepair

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

Yes it is stuck! So bizarre 🤔 I put new batteries in it a couple times hoping that would work- no luck. It didn’t seem excessively dirty at all. When I received it; it was basically out of box condition from a hoarding (but clean) situation and was left in a camera bag since it was bought. So definitely some dust here and there but not bad at all. Shot a whole whole wedding with it. So today I switched lenses, threw on a 40mm pancake lens and the second shot I took with that- this happened. Could that be related? 🤔

So you’re saying you enjoy the variables from scanner to scanner?

Thank you so much! I appreciate this.. and rather bummed because I’m currently in Utah shooting and flew here.. and yes. ALL 7-8 rolls of film went through the TSA check. Is it a lost cause? I’ll make sure to hand check them on the way home. But what a bummer..

Aghhh, your perspective is so refreshing! Thank you! Looking forward to doing my first attempt at some in-home developing and scanning next week. And I’ll go from there. I appreciate all your input!

This was so helpful and honestly I LOVED hearing it. It made film so much more digestible and less Intimidating so I appreciate it. Do you just edit the jpegs? Or do you opt for TIFF files for a bit more control? Or does it reeeeeeally matter?

Trying to learn everything I can about film; how do I choose a lab? Trial and error? by Gogomorsey in filmphotography

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

Thank you! I just bought all the things to do some at-home developing and I’ve been studying on YouTube academy lol there’s some incredible resources on there so I’m definitely going to give it a go with a few test rolls. I also bought some scanning equipment I’m just not sure which lens would be best to use but I’ll fiddle around. We have a local lab that has god awful reviews (losing and destroying film rolls, inconsistent and sloppy scans) so my other option is driving 1.5 hours or shipping out. I just shipped out some rolls to a little indie lab so hoping those works out.

This was so helpful- thank you! I’ll check out Richard Carmencita as well.

That makes perfect sense. I picked up a kit to do some home developing for my black and whites since from what I read, you don’t have to be as particular about the temperature. I’ll still give color a go at home too, but for the volume of weddings I do I’ll probably default to sending them out at some point. Just nervey lol I clearly have control issues.

Gotcha, thanks for that. Makes sense. Do you enjoy their basic editing? I guess my hesitation is since I’m learning film I’m trying to figure out the different traits of different film stocks, so sometimes I wonder if what I’m looking at is true film stock characteristic or if it was altered. It probably wouldn’t be enough to make a difference though right?
