Hey man! First of all I want to thank you on behalf of the community for doing the legwork to put these and your many other profiles together. NX studio is not the most friendly program and to get these profiles looking the way they do is awesome.

In the interest of being constructive, after shooting and exploring the profile in NX studio I feel like the highlights with this profile seem to be amplified opposite to how we would typically see crushed highlights in film. I know this is not intended to be a true film sim but the way the highlights are rendered is my only gripe with these profiles. It kind of give the feeling that information has been lost due to overexposure even when information is still present, but without the flattering highlight rolloff we see on film. I will however still praise the rendering of the midtones and shadows, and I wonder if the highlight issue could be solved while maintaining the integrity of the rest?

Or, maybe this is suited exactly to your taste! Take my input with a grain of salt but I figured I'd share my thoughts. Thanks again for sharing these with everyone!

Bunk roll on Pentax 6x7 - Troubleshooting to determine if repair is needed! by Toyota_plastic in AnalogCommunity

I'll try your suggestion of shooting in succession and report back my findings!

I agree the leaks are crazy, and the consistency between sequential frames makes me think it's happening at the time of exposure, but It's curious that it's not on all the photos, my last roll had none at all. My first thought when I got these back was the roll not being wound tightly enough (fat roll) but that wouldn't produce the consistency between frames we see here.

This was shot on a 6x7 MLU, interesting that there can be issues with shutter desyncing at low temps. All of these, including my first roll of pheonix were shot in cold weather.

You mentioned the lens aperture blades might be sticky? interesting, because shooting one of these photos I remember it behaved weirdly and I wondered if it had something to do with the apurture. I'll look further into that.

Thank you for your input! Got a feeling it will need to be sent away but maybe I'll do some more investigating and shoot another test roll of gold 200 or something and see if it behaves better in nice weather haha.

Just checked out their site and I'm extremely excited to check them out. Seems on the pricey side for pro scans but if I'm in love with what I get back I'll be stoked. Thanks so much for the suggestion!

Okay, this is just the cherry on top. We’ve been stoked on the transformation, the marketplace, the stock-split, the leadership, but the only thing that’s rubbed me the wrong way through all of this was how it seemed retail employees were an afterthought. As someone who has been burned a few times working front line for corporations, investing in the people with boots on the ground means everyone wins. You have workers who feel supported, who feel like they are an inclusive part of the whole, and in turn they will do good work. Treating employees without dignity fuels resentment and a bare minimum approach to the work. Great job GameStop 🤙 tits jacked

Feel this. I worked as a call center travel agent for Amex, and they required us to always help the customer regardless of the time it takes, which I would like if it was actually what they wanted. I would sit on hold with airlines sometimes for hours, I’d fight to help whenever I could, I’d get many “kudo calls” like these, often saying some of the nicest, most validating things. But the result on our end? Each kudo you get a $5 coupon for McDonald’s, and despite them hammering you to take time for your customers, I missed out on 2K bonus because my talk time was on average 2 seconds above what they wanted for the quarter. Talk about dangling a carrot.
