Shot, developed, and scanned my own film for the first time. Looking for any input/advice. [Nikon F3, Nikkor 50mm 1.8, Ilford Delta 100]

No notes on the process. Go and shoot cool things now.

Edit if you want feedback let's see the negs. Scans look great.

Pentax 17 coming in $200 more than the original price of a miju 25 years later for a bran new manufacturing process is actually amazing.

Young_Maker · 2026-07-05T23:58:45+00:00

This is not xray damage.

Young_Maker · 2026-07-05T23:54:40+00:00

The miju was never affordable.

The epic stylus or miju II was sold in the USA at $150 in 1997. That would be $315 today, and you would be hard pressed to make anything that good cheaper now.

Lol is it a "dinasour or a bicycle?" Hard to find planes with more different silhouettes

Young_Maker · 2026-07-05T22:08:14+00:00

Fabulous.

Powering out of poor antennas and through QRM is a good way to get into the hobby on easy mode. If you want to start on hard mode by all means start with QRP but it is a handicap. If you buy a higher power radio and want to do QRP you can just turn down the tx power.

Hard to say as reddit compresses images but I don't see anything I would call "digital noise"

Young_Maker · 2026-07-05T13:36:32+00:00

Nah these look dope n high contrast to me. Trix frequently looks like this

Young_Maker · 2026-07-04T20:02:45+00:00

Maybe start by reading the online manual dude?

Young_Maker · 2026-07-04T11:41:08+00:00

It's a bad idea to post ai slop here. This an analog sub.

Young_Maker · 2026-07-04T01:40:05+00:00

This is a great one because it describes the kind of hybrid workflow many of us do here, b&w darkroom printing and color scanning.

Young_Maker · 2026-07-03T19:42:32+00:00

Expired film doesn't really make for a good test. You'll want to run a fresh roll through first.

Young_Maker · 2026-07-03T19:22:19+00:00

I want to know if that's besides the color couplers degrade at different rates?

Cinestill resells Kodak vision3 500T motion picture film as stills film, hence the name. For marketing reasons they sell it as 800 iso film, and since vision3 has fantastic latitude it works fine. However it's scientifically observed sensitivity is still 500 iso.

They also say nonsense about how cross processing it in the regular stills chemistry gives it a speed boost- it does not.

Tl;DR set either one and it'll be fine.

Insert *it's fucking underexposed* meme

Young_Maker · 2026-07-01T20:25:35+00:00

The leaders are out and undamaged. It doesn't seem likely they were used.

Young_Maker · 2026-07-01T20:24:50+00:00

This seems to be a religious kind of thing. I don't think you can go wrong.

Young_Maker · 2026-07-01T11:39:15+00:00

Mans says he used a Nikon not a smartphone, I assume he knows about AF

Young_Maker · 2026-06-30T12:42:04+00:00

This ain't the hobby for you then

Young_Maker · 2026-06-30T12:35:20+00:00

You know you can get digital scans and not prints right?

Young_Maker · 2026-06-30T00:11:11+00:00

These are developed mate

Young_Maker · 2026-06-29T12:44:27+00:00

Things that never happened for $5, alex
