This is a great shot.

I don't much care for DPR's forum structure - so I don't ever pay attention to it. Photography wasn't offered during my scholastic years, as the town I grew up in was very small and "backwater." It is a unfathomable miracle that a very motivated and extraordinary technology teacher somehow...

Negative lab pro. I noticed with the FPP chems it seems to go a bit crazy with red/brown tones - so I need to make a profile for that. I may try my Epson V550 scanner to see what it does. This would eliminate if it was the chemistry or the software.

And for comparison - here is the Nikon F4s. This was also Kodak UltraMax 400 and mostly used with my Nikon 80-400mm. Amazing how now matter how far you go - you can't escape sh*tty people. Nikon F4S -Ultramax400 - 9-4-25 - FPPCS41 - D800-2366 by Paul Taylor, on Flickr Bridge / Dam Nikon F4S...

So here are some film shots. I developed this with a new-to-me developer - Film Photography Project's C41 kit. And here are some shots from the new-to-me Canon F-1. Needless to say, it appears to be working correctly. This was some Kodak UltraMax 400. Lens was either the TTartisan 75mmF.15 with...

After last week's debacle of batteries with the F4s - I decided to go back to Arlington, and take some more shots. Since we had a heavy rain last night - the temps were nice so I wondered around a bit more on the hunt to channel my inner "Grainydays" (youtube photographer who loves...

I don't mind constructive criticism or suggestion - however I would prefer my images be left as I present them unless I grant permission for someone to mess with them. I wouldn't presume to re-write sections of someone's short story, grab a brush and add a color to a painting, or add a few...

Thanks Beth! I am going to try to head out there this week and shoot the film I originally planned to.

I will pick up a speed finder for it - thank you for the suggestion! I was surprised at the condition when it arrived - but I did pay on the upper end of the market for it (and glad I did in this case.) Excellent article as well! I was sorely lacking in the Canon department when it comes to my...

The Ebay suggestions algorithm has me figured out pretty good. I seen a Canon F1 pop up in the "You may like" section - and since I am not a big Canon guy - that led me down a rabbit hole.I learned there was three versions. The last version was made 1981-1992 as a "tribute" to the old F-1 - and...

Since today is my last day off for the week - I thought why not brave the heat (even though it was cooler today than usual at ~102 degrees) and do some photo-ography. I hadn't shot my Nikon F4S in a while, so I thought I would load it up with some UltraMax 400 and take it. I had some freshly...

I should shoot the same scene with my other CCD equipped camera - an Olympus E500, then shoot it with a CMOS camera (I have several.) Would be an interesting comparison. You see a ton of chatter about CCD vs CMOS - but very few comparisons of the same scene.

Decided to dust off the ol' Minolta 7D the other day for this couple week's camera rotation. My only houseplant : PICT0018 by Paul Taylor, on Flickr Arizona clouds PICT0013 by Paul Taylor, on Flickr Standing Tall PICT0024 by Paul Taylor, on Flickr

I didn't know Peter was *that* tall!

Here is tonight's update : I glued the yellow film holder / back guide on, and masked for paint. PXL_20250802_033047091 by Paul Taylor, on Flickr I used some matte black acrylic paint on the "lens cone." PXL_20250802_041231021 by Paul Taylor, on Flickr Some threaded inserts, and...

Thanks Pete - I was surprised to find something like I was looking for already made. At best, it will work as intended - at worst I will have to modify the files a bit. Either way, it should be fun. There was a ton of conventional 3d printable view cameras but this was the only handheld large...

This isn't my files - I linked the website of the person who made the files in the post. However, for the stuff I design/model I use TinkerCad (free, web based and super easy to use) for simpler stuff - and Autodesk Fusion360 for more complicated stuff. Autodesk Fusion360 has a free tier for...

After having success with my resin printed (Creality Halot Mage - great resin printer. Love the thing) 6x12 and fdm printed (AnyCubic Kobra Max - mediocre machine, but it has huge print volume) 6x17 - I started looking for a handheld 4x5 (mainly to use my Lomography graflex compatible instax...

Looks like you are getting it figured out Gary!
