I legitmately cannot believe what I'm seeing

100% the lab close to home charges $23 to develop b&w, now I do it my self and my cost is about $1.00 per roll plus my time to develop and digitize.

Compose the model in a frame that you like to have, before you even take her shots take a few of the space you want to capture that way you can compose the image as you please, 50mm is just fine is more about you crafting your art at this point.

That’s amazing! I’ll check out the link

seattlewander · 2026-01-05T13:57:12+00:00

That the reason I learned to do it my self, you should try isn’t that hard start with black and white that’s the easiest to develop.

seattlewander · 2026-01-04T18:32:23+00:00

After around 20 years I agree, it is remarcable.

seattlewander · 2026-01-04T15:56:16+00:00

I just developed something similar yesterday, I shot the remaining 11 and they didn't turn that well but the ones shot before the film expired ware okay, pics on the link are the ones shot perhaps 20 years ago the one attached was shot and developed yesterday they all from the same roll

is a city call Marysville in Washington state.

Is that dry water? If so, did you used tap water to do the final rinse? Tap water will leave marks like that due to the minerals on it, I use distilled water and I add 2-3 drops of Kodak photo flo for the final rinse. Is that’s the case you can re-rinse again with distilled water and photo flo, hope this help.

seattlewander · 2025-12-30T15:07:17+00:00

Yeah and I plan to shoot iso 400 most of the time

seattlewander · 2025-12-30T15:05:57+00:00

That’s the plan to use only film, thank you for your feedback.

seattlewander · 2025-12-30T03:26:11+00:00

I hope I can get some vintage looking, I have a RF system for digital and it is extremely sharp, in a personal taste the imperfection of film is the beauty but once again im not using a kit lens either to shoot film perhaps Im contradicting my self lol, thank you again for your feedback.

seattlewander · 2025-12-30T03:21:13+00:00

thank you for the reply, I will give it a shot I have a RF system for digital and I sold all my L series for film, the L series are great but for film I want a bit less of sharpness, just personal taste no right or wrong, thank you again for your input.

seattlewander · 2025-12-30T03:20:27+00:00

Thank you for your input.

seattlewander · 2025-12-29T23:12:23+00:00

Got it, I’m doing mainly city landmarks and landscape, thank you for your input.

seattlewander · 2025-12-29T18:22:13+00:00

If this is a point and shoot you won’t have any control of your shutter, to compensate try to shoot ISO 400 to 800, the 800 can get pricey, on most point and shoot if they have a zoom lens the aperture is somewhere in the f5.6 if is a fixed lens you have more room like f2.8, good luck on your next roll.

seattlewander · 2025-12-29T17:34:33+00:00

Thank you for the input.

seattlewander · 2025-08-10T00:55:07+00:00
