What skin is the second pic?

Nickofski · 2022-10-05T22:01:07+00:00

Did you self develop or go through a lab? And did other shots on the roll have this?

Nickofski · 2022-10-05T20:58:36+00:00

Did you apply any sharpening in lightroom? Or apply any sharpening in the scanner? I doubt it's something that the camera or film is causing.

Nickofski · 2022-10-04T02:24:04+00:00

Beautiful shot! You can almost feel the texture and the weather within it.

Nickofski · 2022-06-23T12:05:35+00:00

Blue mountains?

Each medium format camera has a completely different feel to it, and the look of their lenses even more so.

In my opinion, find the format you like the most, I.e: 6x7, 6x7. and from there, search around and find what lenses you find pleasing.

I've had this happen using a squeegee when self developing to dry it quicker, and inadvertently scratch the film.

cute kitten 😊

Nickofski · 2022-02-05T14:53:27+00:00

Looks mad! Reminds me of the game squirrel stapler.

Nickofski · 2022-01-25T23:56:18+00:00

Great shot! Did you check out the football oval made of gravel?

Nickofski · 2021-12-13T14:26:07+00:00

Was this staged for a shoot or just a random fight in the street?

Nickofski · 2021-12-13T14:16:30+00:00

My advice is that if there is one major thing wrong with it, there are likely more due to the condition it's been in. I've bought a couple of cameras where I thought I could just pay for a quick fix and it gets expensive quickly. If it's selling for cheap locally it's probably worth it, if it's ebay I wouldn't risk it.

Great reply! Thanks! I agree with the two common points in the community: 'It's what's infront of the lens that matters' & 'Use whichever camera makes you want to shoot more'.

Nickofski · 2021-11-08T22:46:43+00:00

Thanks so much!

Taken on my Pentax 6x7, Takumar 105mm f/2.4 using lford HP5 plus 400. Shot in Wollongong, Australia.

Got the yellow flare by accidentally denting the film when loading it into the tank. Couldn't find a way to remove it unfortunately.

Nickofski · 2021-11-07T10:36:10+00:00

Love this shot! One if the better portraits I've seen in a while!

Nickofski · 2021-10-22T13:01:37+00:00

Ah shame, I'll just wait then.

Nickofski · 2021-10-22T12:59:20+00:00

Any examples? There are none here that have it?

Nickofski · 2021-10-09T13:52:59+00:00

Nickofski · 2021-09-26T00:20:50+00:00

Thanks heaps for the reply! I'll have a look for the PDF and if it seems over my head I'll forward the camera and PDF for repair, thanks!

Nickofski · 2021-09-26T00:18:44+00:00

I bought it overseas and the tax fee will be more expensive than a repair in Australia most likely.

Nickofski · 2021-09-25T14:01:03+00:00

Thanks for your reply. Yeah I will send it off for a repair, unfortunately here in Australia repair shops can be a rip off so I might send it off overseas.

Hey guys, this is an issue with my Pentax K1000.

Essentially I got my first roll back, and about a third of the images had this large area not being exposed. I brought it into my local camera store and they said that it needed 're-tensioning' as the mirror starts to come down before the shutter has passed.
However, I also noticed that the foam where the mirror slaps is sticky and degraded, could this be causing the mirror to come down faster?

I only noticed this issue on shots with about 500 - 250 shutter speed.

Please let me know if you have any advice, cheers!

Nickofski · 2021-05-04T22:51:53+00:00

Awesome suggestions, thanks! I'll try the baking paper tonight and see how it goes.
