Welcome to Photrio. I am looking forward to seeing more of your work and posts.

"I see" said the blind man to his deaf wife as he picked up his hammer and saw.

Welcome to Photrio. I have not needed to repair my F100's door latch, but the camera is worth repairing. It is my "go to" 35mm camera when I want to do serious 35mm photography.

I am confused. Using ISO 32 the negative is thin but ISO 80, which is not the real film speed, provided a denser, more usable negative? This needs some 'splaining, please.

I "discovered" gauntlet ski/snowboard gloves with internal liners in Banff years ago. They are great with or without the chemical hand warmer packets in cold weather.

I happened upon the O Winston Museum in Roanoke Virginia and had a wonderful time there. Brought some of his books with his steam engine photographs. Definitely worth the time if you are in the area. https://roanokehistory.org/

I use an Arkay 150 drum print dryer that I picked up for small pocket change from a photo finisher selling off its darkroom equipment and switching over to digital equipment.

I am definitely a late bloomer in this collection of members.

When I was putting together the family genealogy I learned that in the US during the 19th and early 20th century it was common for a family to have multiple spelling for the family names and often on given names on legal records and censuses.

I use Ilford HP5+ because there is not Tri-X 400 in 4"x5". I like to remove the lens cap and then pull the dark slide. I often manage to do that on the first sheet almost every time. With my focal plane shutters and 4"x5" I like to remove the lens cap, open the shutter, pull the dark slide...

What I typically see is that the contrast of the darker areas and the highlights are increased when compared to a single grade print.

I should have reported the destruction of my Nikon SB800 strobe damage.

If you have any package of batteries leak or "grow beards" call the company [Every Ready, Duracell, ... ] with the expiration dates on the batteries and package numbers. They will send coupons for money off batteries, but the coupons will not work at Costco.

I have the 30mm C Fisheye, 38mm CF SWC, 50mm CF, 80mm CF, 100mm CF, 150mm CF, 250mm CF, 500mm C and the 2XE extender. No 120mm nor 135mm lenses.

A late comer or a late bloomer? :whistling:

Hmm early on I was thinking about switching from the 150mm to the 180mm lens. Since neither would get much use, it is better that I did not swap.

I bought my Nikon Z7ii LN- from KEH does that count for the "your latest new old camera" thread?

My most used Hasselblad lenses are the 50mm, 80mm and 100mm. I do not take portraits so my least used is the 150mm lens.

Thank you. A great walk through the past.

Once you own a Hasselblad body, it just takes more time between purchasing each lenses, but you will get all the lenses that you want eventually.

It has been Portra 400 and Tri-X 400 for years, but now I am using my stach of Kodak UltraColor 400 and adding Ektar.

Congratulations! No matter how hard it try, I cannot catch up with you and your time on board. Note to self: work harder and faster! I started with 35mm and color only. Next a Mamiya C330 and three lenses. Added black & white, then a darkroom. Next a Hasselblad followed by a number of...

Welcome to Photrio! Please contribute often.

The only advantage I see with the 40mm lens is that one can see through the lens. I greatly prefer the 38mm Biogon because of the rectilinear correctness and lighter weight.

Or write it in the air. :laugh:

I have trouble following your calculations using audio only during the videos. If you would show the calculations on a white board, it would be easier to follow and provide an audit trail for you. I would have started with an incident reading or Zone V off my hand based on my experiences...

When you are in snow conditions like that, hang your camera bag under the tripod: So you can find it in the snow. Keep the snow outside the camera bag. Added weight to the bag in case the wind comes up, not needed this time. So you do not loose things.

Any places to find a copy or other source please?

Thank you.
