    Worthy pursuit? Landscape astrophotography (untracked) on negative film using Mamiya 645 Pro

    @MTGseattle Yeah, I've been thinking about taking advantage of my options for double and multi exposures. Though I think aligning a graduated ND filter in the dark will be a painstaking task to get right 😬

    Worthy pursuit? Landscape astrophotography (untracked) on negative film using Mamiya 645 Pro

    @reddesert I'm not familiar with star trackers and currently, the online content seems to be geared towards use with digital cameras. I came across information about star trackers having "automatic DSLR shutter release control" and so I was concerned that my camera didn't meet the minimum...

    @MTGseattle thank you for the suggestion! I discovered that the RS401 set is for 645 Super, Pro or Pro TL cameras. I'll look into this option, but it look like it's hard to find. Nonetheless, I'd like to see a demo video or description that explains exactly how an analog camera works on a star...

    Hmmm the MOVE SHOOT MOVE NOMAD Grab & Go Star Tracker is currently on sale. Still a pricey purchase. Weight 430 g. Very tempting... ✨ It's unclear to me how exactly the shutter release mechanism would work when camera is on the star tracker? I use a manual shutter release cable.

    @reddesert I'm going to attempt to shoot the landscape with star trails under the right conditions and time required. I agree that many of the landscape + milkway posted online are composites. This is what my friends do for their astrophotography. As the only woman and the only one shooting both...

    @OAPOli - what you've shared verifies what I've been reading. Thanks for your input. I may try a different approach with Delta 3200 if I come across landscape lit with moonlight, which would be the more prominent subject. The stars will be tiny white specs that I might be content with. 🙂

    Thanks @abruzzi for sharing your results as a point of reference and the additional input. It's helpful. Unfortunately, I live in a place with a lot of light pollution and wouldn't be able to test any time soon in a location with the right environment conditions. The Moab trip would be my...

    Worthy pursuit? Landscape astrophotography (untracked) on negative film using Mamiya 645 Pro

    I've been researching on shooting untracked stars with landscape in Utah's Arches National Park using 120 negative film with Mamiya 645 Pro-TL and Sekor 45mm f.2.8 lens (and maybe Sekor 80mm f/1.9). Most of the online information or examples about landscape astrophotography is more applicable to...

    Options for shooting on Delta 3200 w/ Mamiya C330

    Hi @Arthurwg , it's Goodman Film Lab based in Texas. Formerly, the lab was based in California.

    My reason for selecting Delta 3200 was for my curiosity and desire to learn. I tried it out on 35mm and now I'd like to see how it goes on medium format. I initially thought about shooting on this film indoors and others on this thread have posted great photos.

    I've shot on a couple of 35mm Delta 3200 rolls for bright early evening and later evening street photography, no ND filter used, at 1/1600 and 1/3200. I did okay with those rolls. For medium format, I'm thinking about indoor photography with the 3200.

    I like HP5+ very much and appreciate the results even more on medium format. So I thought I'd try 1 roll of 3200 to challenge my thinking and approach... feed my curiosity : )

    THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I printed this chart when I first got the camera. I'm still very slow with all the mental prep work that goes into shooting with the C330. I've achieved some fantastic results shooting at narrow depth of field on lower film speeds, and I'm hoping 3200 will allow for more...

    My concern is shooting at 500 will result in overexposed images. Would this be case when shooting at wide aperture? I appreciate if you can enlighten me about shooting conditions that will work well for Mamiya C330.

    @Alex Benjamin, beautiful portrait! My big concern has been that my camera's max shutter speed is 1/500. So I'm unsure how to work with that.
