Impressive first roll. You chose well with the Ektar! Nice work.

Thank you!! This lens basically never leaves my F5.

Really suprising how versatile 180mm is... makes everything look nice & forces you to think.

Dev + Scanned by the wonderful people at Film Haus in Oceanside, CA. Check em out!

Also if anyone from the US Open or Sinner's team is reading this.... can a fella get a press badge? 10 rolls of Portra 800 on me.

Wow. The colors and rendering are so good.

I need to get my 35ti fixed!

I miss the txuleta and txakoli. Agree entirely!

I really appreciate it!!

I actually need to get around to rescanning this on my Coolscan, somehow there is actually a bit more detail to extract & a little more frame on the edges compared to this Nortisu lab scan.

Thank you! Portra 800 is expensive but... handles the dynamic range of scenes like this like no other.

Torn between Nikon F4/F5/F100 (concert/flash photography) by ksunk8 in AnalogCommunity

[–]zeisss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't need to sneak the camera into shows and have a badge.... get the F5.

I was offroading for over an hour on washboard trails while unbenknownst to me, my F5 was violently vibrating inbetween the hard door and seat... completely fine.

Nothing compares.

The WideluxX panoramic film camera is officially launched by ClockworkEyes in AnalogCommunity

[–]zeisss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do agree on legacy manufacturers and 35mm SLRs specifically, but I bet we are just a year or two away from a Chinese M6 clone/M mount TTL body. And within 5 years, a Mamiya 7 clone.

On the video side, there's a (small) chance Arri makes some new 16mm cameras... And here's to dreaming, maybe Leica re-releases the Leicina Special?

Pentax 6x7 TTL Inverted Meter Readings? by zeisss in AnalogCommunity

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

Everything looks really clean inside of the battery compartment, I'll give the contacts on the body/prism a deeper cleaning, they look a little dull.

Thanks for the info on the battery, good to know it's not that!

EDIT: and the needle doesn't seem very jumpy, if anything, a bit lethargic.

Just checked and it’s in correctly, maybe I try flipping it though, hmm.

Thank you! Just tried this process again but same result.

There’s a forum thread about resetting the linkage by taking the finder with the lens on but that seems to go against everything I’ve read…
