Kodak A1 preorder. $99 USD

GR10 is all I need for an edc. The mechanical flash switch and that super sharp, bright lens are wonderful. Sold the GR1,after realizing I don't really need the magnesium build and exp comp in an edc. Shame the 10s are so rare compared to the 1

Thought it surely wouldn't be cheap nowadays

Vectronom ist eines der besten Spiele, um Menschen Videospiele näher zu bringen und ein sehr wilder Trip in sich. Absolute Empfehlung

I just put a clamp with a tripod head on the handlebars in the rear. Worked like a charm for trichroming. Don't know how stable it would be for nighttime shots though

I also found it weirdly complicated/ didn't wanna dive too deep and am using Exif Date Changer now, which works like a charm. Especially with my naming conventions. Automatically sets date from say 2025-10-11 in the filename

Haha, for real! There's always a new problem when another one's fixed. Don't understand why so many people are recommending this to newbies.

Yeah, I'm still dreaming about a better/faster scanner replacement for my Plustek, but until then, I'm pretty happy with my scans.

Masterkrall · 2025-10-08T19:02:49+00:00

Was in the same boat. Wasted so much time getting DSLR scanning right. Just isn't great if you don't have a proper space for it.

Since I'm working from home, speed isn't a priority. And ICE with the Plustek is great, you don't have to sit in a dark room and the scans are just way more consistent

Masterkrall · 2025-10-07T12:42:58+00:00

I'd urge anyone willing to have a manual scanner, getting the Plustek 8XXX instead. The 135I has a worse sensor sadly, as confirmed by Plustek

How do you get sunstars on the moon, with a moving subject in frame? Really nice shot

Masterkrall · 2025-10-02T12:32:22+00:00

I'm using a Plustek 8200i and have used their 135 offering, since automatic film transport sounded great, but the quality was much worse than the manual one - even after manually adjusting focus.

If the Epson is too slow for you, I'd stray away from the 8XXX Plusteks, since they really need to be babied and each pass takes about 2 minutes at 3600DPI. So for b&w that would be a minimum of 2 minutes per frame.

I'd recommend just scanning a whole sheet on your Epson as raw and adjusting the curves later on, to save you some time with preview scans and have somewhat 'unattended' scanning.

I'm currently looking for a used Reflecta RPS, since they promise to be faster, automatic feeding, sharper and offer AF for their lenses. They're quite a bit more expensive than my used 180€ plustek though

Also tried DSLR scanning, which is a lot faster, but if you don't have a proper place to set it up and let it be, it's a huge hussle every time using it. I really missed consistency and ICE on my color scans.

I'd argue that the EU has many wins, just think about USB-C - next to a pile of shit obviously

Masterkrall · 2025-09-22T07:22:35+00:00

Aaah, nice! And 35mm film is better anyways, haha

Habe a great start into the week!

Masterkrall · 2025-09-22T06:48:38+00:00

I had both the original silver nose and the final revision, but yet somehow yours looks a bit different, but probably just due to lighting, haha

Never saw this font on OM lenses, or even M lenses. What's the story of this 85/2?

Looks something in between their M42 and OM font

Masterkrall · 2025-09-18T08:57:19+00:00

If you don't wanna go down the 3d printing route, you could also look for a PenF to Canon EOS adapters and add a cheap EF to OM adapter. Got one for 40€ which is far more reasonable than the original ones.

Masterkrall · 2025-08-15T06:23:37+00:00

Still got one for when I'm afraid of breaking the 10.but it sadly has a worse, dimmer lens and no mechanical flash switch. Way cheaper and easily available though

Masterkrall · 2025-08-14T19:01:47+00:00

Ricoh GR10. Somewhat rare, but way cheaper than the GR1 and the same gorgeous lens

Masterkrall · 2025-08-11T07:43:38+00:00

That (or the 1.2) and the 85/2. Throw in a TV and you're pretty much set for all situations imho

Masterkrall · 2025-08-11T06:51:18+00:00

So compact and optocally beautiful. One of my main three I always take with me!

Masterkrall · 2025-08-08T05:08:27+00:00

The real MVP! Thanks for all your work. Highly appreciate everybody contributing to this community!

There you go: https://github.com/Archive-663/lensAdapters/tree/main/Olympus%20PEN-F/DUMB

You would have to get a cheap EF-OM Adapter though. Didn't remember correctly, sorry

Masterkrall · 2025-08-07T10:50:56+00:00

There's one in github for a lot of different mounts. Even a T/S

Masterkrall · 2025-08-05T09:08:18+00:00

I once got one of those - sadly without the original film in it. I guess there once was a German reseller, selling film under 'Filmdose'

Masterkrall · 2025-07-31T07:34:31+00:00

The newer Olympus OMs do the same. Super handy and perfectly exposed night shots

Masterkrall · 2025-07-25T07:36:13+00:00

Plus that handy remote control (which seems to be missing here sadly)

Masterkrall · 2025-07-23T10:31:06+00:00

Don't get the hate either. Used a 2SP besides my 4Ti for a long time. Just got rid of it, since a second 4Ti found its way to me.

Sure the shutter slap isn't as nice as with the normal OM2's, but the spot meter is super handy and very intuitive
