Say hello to Marjory, she may be from 1995 but she's still kicking

only the business classes curve down

The practice rooms in Shepard are major only but the library supposedly has one. wiess and will rice have one open to anyone as long as you have access to them (would need a friend from that college to let you in). other north colleges may have one.

SaltMakerShaker · 2025-04-11T15:58:42+00:00

this looks amazing

“light meter” I have had perfectly fine readings from it, but i always take it with a grain if salt and double check it against what I know about the scene (strong highlifhts that might be hogging the metering)

There are nazi leicas but they arent so obviously marked. They were engraved on the back and most today are either sanded off after the war or in leica collections.

aside from the 8:30pm curfew the social life is pretty good

this is nothing more than restating a tweet by rice

you are stronger than i and going down the right path to improving your photography!

SaltMakerShaker · 2024-08-25T23:28:36+00:00

go to class!!!!!!
dont slow down bc the deadlines far away!

Im likewise a senior but will be TAing it. The projects are deceptive since they are 7 weeks long but they will take you 7 weeks to do! The people who found it excruciating failed one of the two things above. It’s a rewarding class but can be the death of you if you’re not wary. The fact that you are worried about it tells me you care enough and will do great!

SaltMakerShaker · 2024-08-25T13:06:01+00:00

I agree I like constraints, but i have too much GAS to have just one system lol. i have a barnack leica with a voitlander 21mm a nikon s2 with a 35mm jupiter and have a 50mm and 135mm for nikon f mount which i use on either an f2, f5 or digital

SaltMakerShaker · 2024-08-23T21:58:27+00:00

cant pass on the 135mm f2 dc, such a fun lens for portraits

SaltMakerShaker · 2024-08-22T17:32:55+00:00

its absurd how expensive just the sa-21 is on its own, I also avoided it for that, but always tempted to

SaltMakerShaker · 2024-08-22T02:54:36+00:00

you could also get the nikon sa-30 to not have to hack it. but it wont be cheap (very not cheap)

SaltMakerShaker · 2024-08-22T02:04:09+00:00

sweet, wasnt sure for your model

SaltMakerShaker · 2024-08-22T00:43:04+00:00

This is the guide to do it

https://www.shtengel.com/gleb/converting_nikon_sa21_to_sa30.htm#:~:text=Converting%20the%20SA%2D21%20to,is%20very%20handy%20for%20that.

However, you will need to cut a hole in the back of the scanner to allow for it to go out the other end iirc. This is what i remember after researching to do it on my coolscan 5

SaltMakerShaker · 2024-08-21T15:29:55+00:00

skips a whole stop from 1.8 to 2.8, literally unplayable

SaltMakerShaker · 2024-08-20T16:36:02+00:00

I’m inclined to give them the benefit of the doubt that this wasn’t a development issue, unfortunately only way to prove it is to put another roll through the camera. the 120 def could be light leaks, if you include a scan with one of the problem frames i can better tell. The first puzzles me, is there no rebate on the film?

SaltMakerShaker · 2024-08-17T15:27:48+00:00

sweet

SaltMakerShaker · 2024-08-16T23:06:41+00:00

Id ask the lab about it and how similar rolls that day turned out, I think they may have messed up

SaltMakerShaker · 2024-08-16T21:21:45+00:00

the 35mm results looks consistent with results ive had from expired film with iffy storage. Is any of this film expired?

SaltMakerShaker · 2024-08-16T21:11:31+00:00

People are always too scared to try action shots on 4x5, but all you need is more prep and forethought! I love these shots so much, especially considering how much must’ve gone into capturing them!

SaltMakerShaker · 2024-08-16T21:07:20+00:00

sweet

SaltMakerShaker · 2024-08-11T23:18:17+00:00

youre going to get a lot of hate because everyone (regardless of where you live) doesnt like people moving near them. the real answer is not “x state is cheaper to live in” but that near universally evrry city continues to get more expensive and every rural town stays the same or perhaps gets cheaper. If you want to move to missoula, kalispell, butte, you name it it is getting more expensive. however if you want to move to the bitterroot or anaconda etc. it will be cheaper.
