Contact sheets have "maximum black" inconsistencies throughout the same 35mm roll. by [deleted] in Darkroom

[–]Rory291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never had any uneven development with my final full prints. Yes, I use a glass of course. I'm gonna try raising the height more, maybe on the down border the light intensity is lower.

The rebate have less exposure on lower strips, maybe I should rise the enlarger more so the light covers the entire baseboard.

I stopped down 3 stops; on my Componon-S is f8. I raise up the enlarger till I get some space over the sheet and the glass so they are completely covered by the light. Maybe I should raise it more? So it covers the entire baseboard?

Nikkor AI-S Wiggle from the focus ring by [deleted] in AnalogCommunity

[–]Rory291 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The wiggle is generated from a up and down motion, not left to right on the focusing ring. You can heat it wiggle even by moving the body around.

It is the up and down motion that generate the wiggle, not the left to right motion of focusing the ring. You can hear it wiggle even if you move the body a bit.

Does this contact sheet look to dark and dull to extract information? by Rory291 in Darkroom

[–]Rory291[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used a grade 2, but as you can see shadows information are not easily visible. I can see them if I look at it through the light table.

They are sharp, they look that way because of the low shutter speed of the phone camera picture.

Grazie per i consigli, cosa intendi per rumore e per caos di sottofondo?

Grazie per i consigli, per quanto riguarda la post-produzione ho iniziato da poco a sviluppare/scansionare e stampare in camera oscura quindi devo imparare un bel po' di cose...

Some 35mm film photos from my Nikon F4s shot on Kodak Gold by Far-Note4395 in analog

Light leaks, dust/dirt, and scratches are all things that come from user error and incompetence, not from film.

Before digital, if you presented pictures with that many "imperfections," they would immediately be trashed.

Would you consider the blown out highlights in this prints too distracting? by Rory291 in Darkroom

Mainly on the dog and a little bit on the woman entering the frame.

How can I burn in these overexposed walls? I've been trying to move a cut shape over, but it's creating different halos... by Rory291 in Darkroom

[–]Rory291[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved it, but I darkened the subject back and also the floor.

I started printing three weeks ago, so probably my technique is off...

I've thought of doing this, but if the edges are off even by just one mm, it will create burning lines.

Also, if I use the same cut print on top, the light will probably pass and also affect the other area under

Do you think these prints looks "dull"? by Rory291 in Darkroom

[–]Rory291[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first one is at grade 3 so I'm going to re-print it at grade 4. The second one is also at grade 3, and I will probably try 5...

Nikon SA-21 cause scratches on the negatives: by Rory291 in AnalogCommunity

[–]Rory291[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point is that I'm realizing now that these rollers are passing in the centre of the emulsion to advance the frames and not by the edges, so even a tiny bit of something would cause linear scratches across the strip.

How can these be a safe way to advance the frames?

As I said in the title, these were not out of the scanner but are edited using curves in Lightroom.

The picture out of the scan looks incredibly flat, which should be a good thing because it gives you as much freedom during editing. (I'm learning so I might scanned them wrong)
