    EOS Film SLR: Is there a straightforward method for achieving precise manual focus?

    When I have a problem focusing an SLR manually, I focus back and forth past the sharpest focus until I can converge on the best focus point that I can find at full aperture.

    Source for miscellaneous and unusual lens filters, etc.

    Now that the filter manufacturers have stopped making black & white contrast filters, all the filter sources have dried up except filter find. They are now my go to filter source.

    Law regarding photographing people (right of image) in France

    I never saw HBC publish anything on the internet, so he would have been clear of that part of the law. As far as his books, then he did not have a problem publishing, today would be a different story since he would need releases from those who could be clearly identified.

    Photography in disaster areas/circumstances

    I agree. I avoid taking photographs of disasters unless there is an overwhelming need for it, such as for insurance records. I do not need to record someone else's misery.

    The 2024 Great North American Eclipse

    If you choose to have the time take your smart phone and pan it 360 degrees around you during the totality. Also watch the shadow approach your location and leave your location! It moves extremely quickly and one should make sure to watch for it.

    Tripod head

    I prefer carbon fiber tripods rated at about twice the weight of the camera and heaviest lens. I found that the Induro tripods cost much less then the big names and use the same tripod quick releases such as Swiss Arca et al.

    Can you help me identify this film?

    I had a similar problem a few years ago. I loaded the film on a reel, closed the tank and then looked at the paper from one end to the other. The beginning of the paper told me that it was Rollei film. I suggest that you try the same thing and then examine to length of the paper. Also you...
