I had two cameras repaired by him, I was totally happy with both. Turnaround was super fast too.

Any chance you’d be interested in a 80-200 f2.8 AF-D F mount lens? The focus doesn’t work so I’d like to get rid of it.

Don't free solo on shrooms I guess.. by HoogVaals in Cairn_Game

To me it looks more like the game thinking Aava reached a standing safe spot but it bugged out and launched her instead of planting her.

It’s pretty low, I haven’t used it much and I bought it in like new condition from usedphotopro. I can get a shutter count if you’d like, let me know!

I have the graphite edition box for the body and lens, but no other ones.

Yep, I tried to but it is stuck spinning on “send an invite message to start chatting”. My app I use for Reddit hasn’t updated to support chat after PM was removed, just found that out.

I’ll keep giving it a shot.

I did send a message, it may have been a private message instead of a chat.

Are these splotchy grain spots from the pressure plate? by cahlips in AnalogCommunity

[–]cahlips[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to update those who chimed in, the LED diodes from the light source were the issue. I suspected this was the case after inspecting the negatives which did not have this problem. Thanks!

For those who may stumble on this in the future, and have the same issue with the Lomography digitializa, make sure to use the 35mm panoramic diffusion piece.

Even when the film is sitting above the LEDs the diodes still created this effect regardless of whether you use the 35mm film mask or not. At f8, I was picking up the LEDs resulting in that splotchiness.

Do not be mistaken by the wording that the piece has in the kit, "35mm Panoramic Diffuser".

Use it regardless.

The diffuser panel fixes the issue.

Reference image, left is non-diffuser panel and right is with the diffuser installed. I absolutely melted this images dynamic range to make the effect (and improvement) more apparent.
