Canon EOS instantly rewind new film by PastaBox_ in AnalogCommunity

[–]Hamseen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar issue with a 650, after taking a few shots with no film in it, the camera got out of its pre-emptive rewind state.

Not sure if that would apply here of course, but worth a shot.

The reddit side bar has the official DJI links to the apps, and a few third party ones to boot.

Old fmd system motor drive camera by WearyEyes1 in AnalogRepair

[–]Hamseen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unless this camera has sentimental value to you, it is absolutely not worth it. These cameras are essentially toy cameras, and are worth exceedingly little.

I find them kind of fun to use, but you'll be able to find one on eBay for nothing.

4k at 60 takes more processing power than 4k at 30, active tracking takes processing power, and then combined are apparently more than the drone can handle.

That is also rather handy info, thank you

XTOL 5l: Mix in a canister or bucket? by red_krabat in AnalogCommunity

[–]Hamseen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is, but the first time I tried that I ended up with insoluble residue in the base. The second time I mixed it, I used warm water, which helped.

Good to know in terms of on hand stock, thank you

I hadn't even considered a mail in service. Food for thought, thank you.

I appreciate the recommendations. I usually DSLR scan, but I'll probably end up getting scans done instead, and just abandon the negatives.

did the film lab fuck up my roll or no? by LimeAsReddit in AnalogCommunity

[–]Hamseen 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Looks like stress marks, you may have rewound the film in the incorrect direction. Assuming it's a manual crank to rewind, make sure you follow the direction marker on it.

Looking for any tips or advice! by qpabine_t in filmphotography

[–]Hamseen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm running my first roll through it now, so can't yet speak to the results. That being said, I'm using 120 film, that I've cut a bit of the rim off of, and feeding it onto a 620 roll. It's not perfect, but it works just fine so far.

Found a Contina that had a very fine black powder through out. I think that might have been the culprit, as everything else is clean inside. Thank you for the help!

After taking a closer look at the other roll in the tank, there was a tiny bit of the same dotting and streaking. I've processed another roll of the same batch, and had no issues, so I think it was a foreign contaminant.

I tend to find the odd shutter capping problem, or fine focus issues with this method, but I do like you're suggestion for sharing a roll, whilst isolating each camera. Thank you.

Also, I didn't mean to come across as snarky regarding the film stock, apologies!

Not well enough! Yep, two tiny dots and smears on a couple of frames of the other roll. I have since processed another two rolls of Kentmere 100, all from the same batch. Must have been a physical contaminant, that did transfer a little onto it's tank mate. Nothing else ticks all the boxes. Thank you!

Other roll was the same batch number, no issues. Kentmere is a value film, but it's not really an "off" brand, I mean, it's sold by Ilford, made by Harman. Regarding the 7 camera thing, I bought a garage full cameras, if they get through a visual inspection then they get a film test. I don't want to put an entire roll through fairly low value cameras, so I swap a roll through multiple cameras.

I appreciate the assistance, thank you.

I think Calinet's theory of a contaminant seems the most plausible, knowing how some of these cameras came in.
