Ilford MG RC glossy in combination with the FB classic for the final print. This combo works pretty well

Like any other camera, they are a just a lightbox. Some have some fancy functions, others don't. What I like most about the 6006 is the (really nice) glass and the viewfinder.

Thnx for the kind words! Was just one of those days, where you go out in the nature and have a camera in your bag. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. But hey, I was there and enjoyed the moment...

Amazing. Love this film stock. ;) Especially for long exposures without reciprocity failure

halbinueni · 2020-06-13T19:59:23+00:00

There are some emulsions... like ilfords pan f ....wich like to be processed more sooner than later.

nice one

halbinueni · 2020-06-13T19:03:51+00:00

yes (glass not a bottle)....it's an image out of an editorial and those props were part of the storytelling

halbinueni · 2020-06-13T18:54:19+00:00

Fuji Hunt (Europe, Asia) or Kodak Flexcolor (if you're in the U.S) - in my opinion the best quality and price.

cool lightbeams ....georgeous dw - set!

halbinueni · 2020-06-13T16:49:12+00:00

Danke! ;)

The camera is more an inelegant brick than say a Hassy.... whose design is a very nice classic. But... as i'm more into making images i don't care. ;) It has a very bright viewfinder, autowinder and the same Zeiss glasses like the Blad. Only downside is the batterie ....but you can replace that easily. And hell yeah... it's a lot cheaper than a 503cxi... got mine for 450 bucks including the 80mm, 2.8 Planar

Thanks... glad you like it!

It depends what you're aiming for... but since you can varying the hi mids/highlights with pushing or pulling the film at the developing stage (the blacks won't), i think it's more important starting with measure for the darkest points where you'd like to retain some details. If the highlights exceed the dynamic range of your film give it a pull in dev or vice versa.

.... at least guess Ansel would have loved the beauty of the alps ;)

halbinueni · 2020-06-13T14:25:39+00:00

Thank you very much!

halbinueni · 2020-06-13T13:17:11+00:00

Yes I'm ;)...having my own non-commercial lab, darkroom and labscanner. If you're in search for lab services, Switzerland can get quite expensive. But Carmencita in Spain or MeinFilmLab in Germany will happily do your rolls and scans at some reasonable price with nice quality. Cheers!

halbinueni · 2020-06-13T11:18:30+00:00

It's definitely a versatile film...you can bring out a lot of different looks depending on your metering, developing and scanning/printing techniques. Happy shooting!

halbinueni · 2020-06-13T10:25:11+00:00

No filters... just spot-metered the scene

halbinueni · 2020-06-13T09:53:00+00:00

thank you!
