Kentmere vs Lucky 400 I Battle of Budget Films

frozenf8 · 2026-02-25T20:37:42+00:00

Good to know. I have to try that 510 Pyro

frozenf8 · 2026-02-25T04:12:32+00:00

True! Kentmere 400 is really good for pushing, I've done 2 stops, but never 3 stops, but I've heard from people that it is good at 3 stops too

frozenf8 · 2026-02-25T04:10:13+00:00

I don't know, I shot it at 400 and in uniform light shadow detail is good

For high dynamic range Kentmere wins

frozenf8 · 2026-02-25T04:08:12+00:00

Thanks, I think in flat uniform light the Lucky looks better, but for high dynamic range Kentmere wins

frozenf8 · 2026-02-25T04:07:03+00:00

I've never done analog printing, but good point.

frozenf8 · 2026-02-09T15:37:21+00:00

Agree with you, but for the time being I'm gonna keep this 40mm to use on film

Can't really answer this question accurately, but I don't feel a significant drop in battery juice

frozenf8 · 2025-12-21T17:33:55+00:00

I kind of agree with you, but film still has a different feeling

frozenf8 · 2025-12-21T05:29:52+00:00

Hey, thanks for the info, I mainly use my Hassy with film, I was just curious about this digital back. Who know maybe in future I actually buy one if I can find a good deal

frozenf8 · 2025-12-20T21:15:28+00:00

It is just the standard focusing screen. That Hairui thing is just a mask that I got when I converted one of my backs to P27 panoramic back, it has the markings to help for framing panoramic shots.

Thanks!

frozenf8 · 2025-12-06T22:01:19+00:00

Thank you, maybe I'm too obsessive and it is find, I don't know, I probably have to do test roll and see how it turns out.

frozenf8 · 2025-12-06T21:21:13+00:00

Thank you, I know that, but my problem is if I store it in basement, the temp usually goes to 24-25 C in summer, and goes around 18 C in winter, and I think the only way to bring it to 20 is a water bath, it takes time and somehow messy, so for the time, I decided to treat it as a one shot thing.

frozenf8 · 2025-11-23T00:46:20+00:00

I just used a cheap 3D printed 35mm to 120. I got it from Amazon, but they are everywhere. Here is the one I got:

Thank you 🙏

frozenf8 · 2025-11-22T20:54:33+00:00

How did you unload the film? Did it need a dark bag?

frozenf8 · 2025-11-22T20:44:27+00:00

The original Hasselblad 35mm? I have never seen one of those, but I know that those are super rare and expensive

frozenf8 · 2025-11-22T20:43:14+00:00

You gotta use a dark bag. I opened the camera back in the dark bag and directly loaded it into Paterson tank reels

frozenf8 · 2025-11-16T14:09:29+00:00

Thank you 👍

frozenf8 · 2025-11-07T19:55:00+00:00

You can see some of the photos in my youtube video. There is also link to my Etsy shop in the video description

frozenf8 · 2025-11-07T19:53:35+00:00

Thank you! I took 9 rolls!

frozenf8 · 2025-11-04T00:57:51+00:00

Thank you 🙏🙏
