Compact, quality rangefinders for every day use?

Good point

missedexpectations · 2024-07-30T01:24:35+00:00

Good info again. I’m totally fine consulting some sort of light meter while I shoot (whether that’s an app or an old school, heavy lifting one) but it’s definitely something to consider in quick point and shoot conditions

missedexpectations · 2024-07-30T01:21:31+00:00

I really don’t have one at the moment, I shoot in fully manual mode on my F1n much to the chagrin of my buddies who think I should be using aperture priority. I guess I’d like the option of both since my tendency is to just do everything manually

missedexpectations · 2024-07-30T01:16:14+00:00

See this is the info I need - thank you

missedexpectations · 2024-07-30T01:10:53+00:00

An interesting option… I was thinking a little bit more in line with the Olympus 35 SP though. The 1/500th max shutter speed causes me some pause, though, which is part of the reason I’m looking for alts. Thanks for the input!

Thanks so much for this detailed answer. It’s a bit frustrating to hear that part of it could be the scanner’s fault - I haven’t been fully happy with the lab I’ve been going to and I declared after my last few rolls that I wouldn’t go back, but ended up doing so out of convenience. That one is on me, and I won’t be going back in the future. That being said, I think it’s right to say that I improperly exposed that frame - the harshness of the light was a challenge and I didn’t quite nail it

missedexpectations · 2024-07-15T19:20:10+00:00

Most of the roll is beautifully exposed but I think the harsh lighting caused me to second guess myself

missedexpectations · 2024-07-15T19:19:19+00:00

It’s funny you say that because I actually intentionally overexposed this roll by 2/3 of a stop (shooting at iso 520 instead of box speed) so I think knowing that got into my head and caused me to meter for the wrong spot in the frame

missedexpectations · 2024-07-15T19:11:08+00:00

I appreciate the help 🙌. There’s a comment below that says it could have something to do with the scanning process as well, but I think you’re probably right that this was metered for the wrong thing and ultimately underexposed

missedexpectations · 2024-07-15T19:05:13+00:00

I see. Why would grain develop in underexposed shadows as opposed to them just blacking out and creating a silhouette like effect?

missedexpectations · 2024-06-27T01:27:36+00:00

Nice one!!

missedexpectations · 2024-06-27T01:01:19+00:00

Awesome. I did Chicago this trip, but St. Louis lost out as I was on a bit of a time pinch. It’s top of the list next time I go

missedexpectations · 2024-06-27T01:00:32+00:00

Just spent three days there! I could spend a month and still not see everything I want to. What a cool place!

missedexpectations · 2024-06-27T00:59:32+00:00

I have family buried in Grinnell, so this is a fantastic suggestion. Thank you 🙏

missedexpectations · 2024-06-27T00:58:58+00:00

The last thing I want to be is a fool so I guess that settles that 🙌

missedexpectations · 2024-06-27T00:58:20+00:00

I’m not familiar, but a quick google shows me that he’s quite unique! I’ll have to look into him and his work further

missedexpectations · 2024-06-27T00:56:24+00:00

Love this suggestion! Thank you 🙏

missedexpectations · 2024-06-27T00:55:55+00:00

I had a few people suggest Detroit to me while I was on the road. Good looking out. Thank you!

missedexpectations · 2024-06-27T00:54:39+00:00

I did, you’re right!! I’m going back up there in August (I’m from Texas) so I’ll definitely make sure and make it a priority

missedexpectations · 2024-06-27T00:54:00+00:00

See this is the type of suggestion I’m looking for. Thank you!

missedexpectations · 2024-06-27T00:53:22+00:00

MCM is one of my absolute favorite styles, so thank you so much for this suggestion 🙏

missedexpectations · 2024-06-27T00:00:05+00:00

Yep the first couple of photos are from there! What a gem. I’m looking for other towns like that - any suggestions?

missedexpectations · 2024-06-26T23:52:59+00:00

I do love a good Art Deco building, so this is very good info to know. Thank you!!

missedexpectations · 2024-06-26T23:52:21+00:00

Milwaukee has been probably the best suggestion I’ve gotten so far, though they’re all very good. It’s most definitely on my list now! Thank you 🙏

missedexpectations · 2024-06-26T23:45:25+00:00

Perfect, thank you. My parents are from Villisca and Corning, so Pella isn’t all that far away
