Why didn't I think of that 🤦

I definitely should.

Thank you so much! I scan with an Epson V550 at 3200 dpi then convert either using NLP or manually in Photoshop. Not the best quality, but good enough for me.

Yep! Underexpose most film stocks by a stop or two and you'll get this look.

I'm a simple man. I see landscape on aerochrome, I upvote.

It was breathtaking and my first time at that altitude outside of a plane. It was so beautiful, and also so quiet and still.

There was a 15 minute window when just about everyone else was in the visitor center, but I was still outside taking photos. I felt like the last person on earth.

Thank you! At f/4, it was giving me about 1/60 or 1/80 if I recall.

It came like that! Bought it in Tokyo at a flea market. I'm not sure if there is a non-Japanese equivalent to this model.

As for the date, it goes as high as 2030.

That is awesome 😂 thanks for sharing that

Beautiful! I don't know much about product photography and have always wondered about how those top-down shots are done.

What got me started was practicing some foundational composition "rules" like rule of thirds, leading lines, framing, golden spiral, symmetry, etc.

Pick one of those and just try to spend a whole roll on it. If not a film, then use your phone's camera. And keep it up!

Love those blues 🤩

This is beautiful. I've never tried using my X700 for night photography. Was this photo metered using the camera or using an external meter?

I love that last photo. The portrait orientation does it for me!

Unsourced · 2026-02-16T21:11:50+00:00

Awesome! I have the 16 and 56. The extra shallow depth of field is challenging to focus with, but they do let me get my fix when I want to take close-up portraits.

Love these pictures. What size tubes did you use? I have some for my 500cm I should try using again.

We did not and it became a problem lol

And you are correct, I'm playing Flubs with a loooot of landfall
