    Nikon F and lens compatibility?

    Many lenses are compatible if they have the F mount. Auto focus lenses will not work because the needed battery and circuity is not in the camera. You have a wonderful camera, enjoy. This article may help you or add so confusion until you work your way through it and understand it...

    Darkroom secrets, tips and tricks

    I think that it is a good practice, but Ron had said that it was not necessary. We agree.

    Exactly. So the bodies will not glow.

    Post your portraits here

    Interesting. I believe that is the first infrared portrait that I have seen. I am not surprised because the human body radiates infrared at 14-15 microns. EDIT: Underlined

    Capturing snow - voices in my head

    Echoing that. There are several ways to go: Use a general light reading and open up a stop or two, this works but is the least accurate Meter off the palm of you hand and put that in Zone 5 Meter off the clothing and place than in the right Zone area Use an incidence meter

    Time to break the drought...

    I use 30 seconds to a minute. As long as it is 30 seconds that is enough but it is ok to go longer without a problem. I tend to let it go for 1 minute.

    Costco shutting down its entire photo dept

    The closest Walmart is over 40 miles from me and in the past they would throw out the negatives. I would not take a chance on that happening, so I take my film to Samy's Camera.

    Is San Francisco really that bad?

    The title of the thread states the question: "Is San Francisco really that bad?" Really that would depend on what he did and to whom. Did he have their permission so it was consensual? Even then depending on the standard that one goes by, it still could be bad. Was he drinking or eating to...

    Kodak price increase

    Not at all like the Octapus, Kodak is passing on its costs, nothing more. And by the way so is everyone else.

    Kodak price increase

    Better yet drop the digital and move to film. One can buy a lot of film for the price of the top of the line Nikon or Canon and so new lenses. Now how about quit trolling?

    35mm or 645 for travel to Spain

    I usually carry my Hasselblad with the 80mm, 50mm and SWC when we travel. On a few occasions when I will not want to spend time on photography I will carry the Nikon N75 for color C41 film and the Nikon F100 for black & white film when we travel.

    Is San Francisco really that bad?

    I have now trimmed down the gear for the trip to the 509 CX with the 30mm Fisheye and the 903 SWC. One at a time or maybe both at once but that would have one of them in the backpack at a time.

    Want to Buy 95mm Red Filter

    Filter Find was the first place I went. I even talked to him on the telephone about 95mm filters of which he had none, they go really fast, and Nikon Bayonet Filters for the 13mm, 15mm and 16mm lenses. He did have cases for the Nikon filters, but not the original ones. Meanwhile, someone of...

    35mm or 645 for travel to Spain

    Carrying a camera, I made the mistake of cutting through the blocks from the hotel to Las Ramblas in Barcelona with my ex-wife. We were followed by another couple and all of us realized by the looks that we were getting that we were in real trouble. We walked heads erect and vigalent, as if we...
