Okay, thanks for your advice! I skip it then.

Hi everyone, I’m wondering if anyone used the above lenses with extension rings for macro shots. I could grab any of the two for a really good price. Both non ai. I’ve the 55mm f3.5 micro but would need more dof for macro.

Yes, my biggest concern is the price which is high indeed. Since then I found a solution I’ve tested it and it works. Needed a bit of time to think how to bridge this and it’s okay now. I use a negative holder from an enlarger and I’ve sticked rubber feet on the bottom to be able to place my...

Thanks for the link, I appreciate it, will have a look into it! As for the thing we’ve created, I think I’ll find a way to give it a meaning. Don’t know now but this surround leds are something which is worth to think about at least that’s what I feel.

Thanks for yor response and infos! The advantages and speed which cone with this devices are irresistable :smile: for me and the fact that I can take it almost anywhere along with a lightbox and is so convenient moreover the film and the camera sensor are parallel and also I don’t have to worry...

Hi all, I’m thinking to get a Nikon ES-2 and use it on a D3200 with a Nikkor-Micro 55mm f3.5. I use extension rings as well as I currently use this setup for scanning negatives. I’d like to speed up the process as the ‘traditional’ (tripod/negative holder) way is slow and moreover I’ve to...

Yes, we were aware of that but we just wanted a good looking and funny design. The only downside is that I need more time but otherwise it’s really convenient to carry and I’m thinking of using round or different shapes of objects so the light would surround it; can be an interesting way to...

I coated twice but I haven’t waited till the previous one was dry so I’ll do that next time. I need a hair dryer as well as I’m entirely bald. :smile: I’d looove to coat glass and found a few methods (so I’ll also look into the link you’ve sent) but first I want to clarify the very basic. Thanks!

I also have this thought that I’ll wash it again with diluted vinegar and also make another one and expose it a bit more. The light source is also on a test run, 15 minutes seemed alright but it wasn’t. It’s a LED UV strip approx. 70W. We made it with a friend of mine and the housing is a tom...

Okay, I didn’t know this, so thanks! It’s rather that I think the paper is not a problem in my case, at least that’s what I feel, as I’ve done two prints and one of them came out fine.

The paper is free from any additives. I’ll make another stock solution this time in a larger quantity and give the flower a bit more time to develop properly.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Hi everyone, I’ve made these two yesterday. My first two attempt. The one with the cars came out better though I couldn’t measure the chemicals accurately as I only realised just when I poured the chems in the tray of the scale that it can’t measure only in 1g steps. =) So I added the chems...

Oh yeah, I know what you mean, I neither don’t like it. I do use polarizers only when it’s really an advantage, rather no than yes, but as I shoot black and white I thought I ask first how others do when shooting colour, so I gather up some info before I start my first colour roll.

Thanks for your reply! As I wanted to go with the Ektar and it’s currently gone I’ll drop a pol filter and give it a go.
