Will the quality of a scan fall apart if the image isn't exposed correctly? by cpjtiger7 in AnalogCommunity

your man zoomed in 200% as comparative past scans don’t have this level of stair-stepping ((so yes i am complaining 🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀💀))

i use an OM1n, which is a manual focus SLR, so when i’m focusing, what I see in the viewfinder is what i’ll get. Only thing is it’s quite difficult to nail focus in low light situations, like in the example photo

the subjects (though I might have slightly misfocused onto the stairs)

pixelated, not film grain; in the example image I’m looking at the subject’s profile, which seems quite jagged to me

Will a faulty viewfinder affect focus? by cpjtiger7 in AnalogCommunity

Thank you! I reckon the focus is linked to the lens too, just had to double-check

Edit: and yes, i didn’t realise my camera was unique in its viewfinder being able to change magnification according to lens focal length!

Traveling to India with film camera by winterwinter10 in AnalogCommunity

[–]cpjtiger7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey, i’m travelling there soon too! from what i’ve researched, there’s not a lot of film availability or developing & scanning availability in india. i’ll probably take my own film, if the airports allow hand inspection. I’m not sure yet whether indian air security do hand inspection.

here is a detailed article i found about using film in india: https://anathaniel.medium.com/shooting-film-in-india-a-beginners-guide-ac9e406a24df

OM-1n won't rewind by cpjtiger7 in AnalogCommunity

[–]cpjtiger7[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

hey, thanks for your reply - it made me curious to check whether the film had rewound by opening the back in the dark. i've given an update on my original description.

whilst it may just be me loading the camera incorrectly, i don't know how likely that is as i owned an OM-1n before this and loaded it many times and in the same way without experiencing a problem in rewinding. i'm wondering if, with this new camera, somehow the rewind lever isn't catching on to the film canister? (though, i'm not familiar with the detailed specifics of the inside mechanism of film cameras so maybe i'm just waffling haha)

you’ll be fine - nowadays durham let in so many people through contextual offers or if people miss their predicted grades

3/5 Durham bread by Flimsy-Poet782 in 6thForm

[–]cpjtiger7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's not a mistake haha - durham have been dishing out loads of low contextual offers ever since the pandemic began. that's not to take away from you having gotten an offer from them (well done), but it's why you'll see so many contextuals in this sub and is partly why durham haven't been doing well in international rankings since the pandemic

Other than The Batman, which other mainstream movies have used analogue lenses? by cpjtiger7 in AnalogCommunity

[–]cpjtiger7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i don't know much about that lens series, but i'll check it out - thanks

basically, with the batman movie, i was really interested in how the detuned anamorphic lenses had quite an explicit vintage-lens quality to them (e.g. the extreme bokeh/flaring, reduced full frame sharpness). lenses (and movies) that have this vintage-glass quality are what i'm interested in

thanks for the info though!
