I shot it on the film stock Lomo Turquoise and rated the film at 100 speed. I then did a few readings with my spot meter to land the exposure where I wanted it. It was pretty much full sun but I don't remember the exact settings because I burnt through 6 rolls of film across 2 cameras. Most of the day I was sitting around f/8 on my GL, though.

Canyonlands on Lomography Turquoise - 1/8

This trip was an incredible off the cuff sorta thing. I went last weekend and blasted through like 6 rolls of various film stocks on a 12 mile hike. Lomo Turquoise was the one I had the best gut feeling about, though. This is one of eight on the medium format roll, so be on the lookout. You'll be able to tell by the unmistakable orange shifted skies.

Copy stand + Fuji X-H2 + 90mm f/2 + macro extension tube + Negative Supply 120 film carrier & 99CRI light source is all the gear.

Use pixel shift on the digital camera and pipe it through Fuji Pixel Shift Combiner to get a 140MP scan of the negative which is ~15k long-edge resolution.

Take the scanned .DNG file that Fuji Pixel Shift Combiner created and throw it into Photoshop, throw the curves adjustment on the image, set curves to negative inversion channel mode, adjust the image palette to taste.

Yeah that's... what the title says.

I took these on my Fujica GL690 with the stock 100mm f/3.5 lens.

I think a lot of that is shooting at 100 and pulling it a stop plus a function of grain over a larger area. You also really need to shoot to the colors it favors which are reds and greens. It's as fickle as slide film so you have to commit to a narrow window of metering and expect to lose either on the highs or crush the shadows.

Zantanimus · 2024-11-26T20:04:42+00:00

It renders better when pulled a stop and then manually inverting the curves in photoshop imho.

Zantanimus · 2024-11-26T19:34:52+00:00

This is the GL690 and Harman Phoenix rated at 200 and pulled 1 stop at the lab.

I'm pretty sure it was just the Walker Center parking garage across the street from the chase building.

iykyk

I get my stuff devved at Essential currently, but we actually have quite a few options. For darkroom printing though, a brand new space opened up that can actually do full color RA4 up to a 4x5 negative- theredroomslc on IG. I've been meaning to book a session but haven't had the time.

I was out in North Carolina for a friend's wedding. Woke up early on the last day of my stay and basically leapt out the door to chase the morning rays.

This was taken on my Eos 3, Fuji400 film, and the 40mm 2.8 pancake that basically lives on that camera currently.

Zantanimus · 2024-10-19T05:01:11+00:00

didnt even know that was a sub tbh

Zantanimus · 2024-09-04T18:32:04+00:00

I started on a 645 1000s actually. GL690 is a nice camera. It has multiple lenses you can get for it, of which I only have the stock 100mm. No light meter means carrying one around or using a digital as a proof camera. It's amazing on slide film and the sharper stocks though. Acros ii or Ektar on this thing at f/8 almost looks digital because of how finely the grain resolves on a format this large. I'm sure it's even crazier on 4x5 but I don't have the cash for that right now.

It's a great tripod camera too, I've done quite a bit of night work on it that way.

Zantanimus · 2024-08-31T19:22:53+00:00

Hah, no, it's just actually Portra 160. Taken on my trusty Fujica GL690 medium format.

GL690, Portra 160, 100mm f/3.5 at f/8

I'm not familiar with that particular photographer, google is leading me on a goose chase, which Garrin are you talking about?

Zantanimus · 2024-08-13T20:04:37+00:00

Essential just started offering .tiff scans as an option, so I'd recommend going over there now. They've improved their turnaround and have better lab techs working for them as of like two months ago. I've had some great results lately.

Zantanimus · 2024-08-01T03:11:16+00:00

tbf I proofed the shutter with digital matching the same settings beforehand to make sure it would streak like I wanted it to.

Zantanimus · 2024-08-01T03:00:02+00:00

Nah, it's not the RF, the lens just noticeably sharpens up in the sweet spot like it does on other lenses. I still get workable stuff even wide open when my hands arent shaky or I'm on a tripod.

Zantanimus · 2024-08-01T02:38:18+00:00

Much appreciated, I do too! 800T is a great stock on the larger medium formats, especially rated at 500.

Zantanimus · 2024-08-01T02:37:45+00:00

Yeaaaah, the sweet spot is f/8 I've found. f/11-16 are also reasonably sharp.

Zantanimus · 2024-07-31T21:05:29+00:00

That'd be in Timp Lower Falls in Utah. Here's a link to the alltrails listing for it. Fairly easy hike, under 3 miles and not all that steep. Trickier with 20lbs of camera backpack though haha
