    Is The Hasselblad 100mm f/3.5 Worth Owning?

    I prefer the 50, 80 and 250. My 150 is my least use lens.

    Is The Hasselblad 100mm f/3.5 Worth Owning?

    I found the 60mm lens was too close to the 80mm lens, so I bought the 50mm lens and have been happy with it ever since. It is one of most used Hasselblad lenses.

    Is The Hasselblad 100mm f/3.5 Worth Owning?

    The reason I have the 30mm Fisheye C 500mm C lenses is that they were offered a price I could not walk away from. Otherwise I would have bought the CF versions.

    XTOL failure

    I found that for me, Ilford films needed one minute added to the 20 degree C time and then adjusted for temperature.

    XTOL failure

    That is why I use the StopLossBagsTM.

    XTOL failure

    I use replenished XTOL, but I always test the developer on a 35mm film tongue first. I also store XTOL in StopLossBagsTM from www.stoplossbags.com and use their funnel to avoid spills. Those bags allow me to squeeze out all the air. I have stored replenished XTOL successfully for over two years.

    Is The Hasselblad 100mm f/3.5 Worth Owning?

    Depending on the price yes. I have 30mm Fisheye C, 38mm Hasselblad 903 SWC, 50mm CF, 80mm CF, 100mm CF, 150mm CF, 250mm CF, 500mm C and the 2XE. The 100mm is a little longer than the 80mm but much sharper. Sometimes I find the 100mm for some compositions. If you can try one in a store or...

    What should I expect from this old IR filter?

    I would expect it to perform like any other 720 IR filter use a filter factor of 6. I use the light meter to meter the subjects without the meter seeing the sky and open up 6 f/stops. I use Rollei IR 400 at ISO 400 exactly that way and have never had a problem.

    Its a start. It will improve with more time over the target. How much, is harder to predict.

    Add to that his art training in composition so that one can understand his refusal to allow anyone to crop his photographs.

    Archival Methods: Great Customer Service

    It is nice to hear that a manufacturer will go the extra distance for a customer just because they can.

    Weather where you are

    Rochester New York has two seasons: winter and the 4th of July. Some years the 4th of July does not come to Rochester. The reason George Eastman founded Kodak in Rochester is because Rochester is the world's largest natural darkroom.

    Tall Large Format Shooters *(Over Six Feet) : What Tripod/Head Are You Using?

    That sounds like a low blow! Why would you do that to someone who is height disadvantaged?

    Nikon D750 vs Z mount cameras.

    I only use the view finder even when changing setting. In fact one thing I like about working with settings is using the view finder instead of the screen on the back of the 7ZII.

    Nikon D750 vs Z mount cameras.

    Me too. The mirrorless viewfinder leaves a lot to be desired, especially when compared to the real thing.

    Tall Large Format Shooters *(Over Six Feet) : What Tripod/Head Are You Using?

    We could solve your problem if you will add 15 cm to my height and take the loss of the same. That would get rid of my height disadvantage and help you find your tripod. By the way I rarely have to duck my head for doorways and low ceilings. Are you interested?

    IR distance adjustment formula

    I have one roll of HIE 35mm film left. When I use Rollei IR 400 I use small lens openings and do not adjust the focus for IR film.

    Nikon D750 vs Z mount cameras.

    I bought a Nikon 7ZII instead of a Nikon D series. If I had bought the D series I would not need a lens adapter to use the rest of the lenses. Yes it is lighter and the lenses make it tip forward when it is around my neck, but the contrast range of the viewfinder is poor compared to a mirror...

    IR distance adjustment formula

    Fortunately for me, my lenses have the IR focus mark engraved on the lenses and they are near the infinity but offset a bit closer.

    Nikon F6 Firmware

    I had problems with updating the firmware on my Nikon z7 II, so I took it to Samy's Camera on Fairfax and with some difficulties they were able to get the firmware updated. It turned out that the firmware was still zipped up after the first unzipping and it was only through a SWAG* that they...
