I'm sorry, I should have metioned I'll be shooting at 120 format.... but I will try the TMax 3200 in my half frame. Thank you tho'

P.S. I love Neopan 1600 also. Wonder if that would be enough for nite time shooting in the street.... worried about pushing it to 3200 tho'

Good evening. I'll be shooting the Halloween parade in Greenwich village and was wondering if I'm better off with Ilford 3200 @EI 3200 or Tri-x 400 @ 1600 or 3200 Thank you much. Tom

This is old news. They take your order and then email you two days later that it's out of stock and it takes a LONG time to get the credit on your card.

Q.G. What do you have against incident metering? :) All I can say is that I've been using my 3 to 10 degree spot metering and compensating for the zone. I've been hitting the shadows and stopping down two stops and my neg's have greatly improved. I'm also in a habit of writing down my exposures...

Mine was given to my by a widow. But you can buy them. I would start as mentioned above with betterscanning.com and if not go to the Epson site.

Tony, the scanner plate I have holds two 4x5's. They are directly in the middle of the plate and both are scanned with one pass on the V500.

Just thought I'd let those that did not know this, as I've seen the question a few places, that the Epson V500 does indeed scan 4x5 neg's and E6. I ran into a 4x5 holder for the V700 and used it. You can make one as well. FWIW.

I really love these. My fav is the 800z. Do you over exp? I always do by at least one stop.

Keith gives good advice for sure. Where are you located? I have a complete RZ system, I mean everything. It is an outstanding camera. I use to use to for Handheld but now because of an issue my arms are becomeing weaker and I may have to trade her. She is indeed heavy and cumbersome. The...

Always a help Keith, thank you.

One more thing, I'm learning from J.C. not from his processing and "settings" but from his "eye" as well.

I've used them and they are indeed the best lab on the planet with one execption. My darkroom.

Jonathan, I've leaned long ago not to take too much of what is said on forums to heart, you'll live longer. that said, there is an amazing group of people here, it's just that some peeps have to argue as they have too much time on their hands. I hope you hang out. It would be good for us and...

Jonathan, P.S. you have a wonderful looking family and it says a lot about the man they way he talks about his family and the way he teachers others.

Jonathan, I am the OP here on the thread.... Thank you very much for your joining and and sharing. Helps a lot! Also, a VERY welcome to you from APUG. (By the way, you state: 'Film is a magical thing people, you should try it' ... That's all we do here. I have watched your website, your...

Ken, good idea thank you. Checked. Nope. But would have made sense. Now, without the back on my 4x5 I placed a pola sheet into the holder and watch it go in. It clicked and in a bit I'll attach it when I'm ready and see if the env pulls off leaving the film. (Can't do that now or I'll loose the...

http://newyork.craigslist.org/fct/pho/1422826884.html Not mine as I will never sell mine.... just came across.

that's over $22 for a roll of prints.... without the 7.50 for scanning. Yikes.

Perk, thank you for this, this seems to fit exactly what a lot of folk here at stating. I'm going to run with this in the next few days and see. Today I shot my first 4x5 film. Having issues with the polaroid back but I'm working on it. It's all fun. Thank you all. Tom

Keith, I did not bracket this as it was more of a snapshop but I did indeed use avg. metering which I use to use quite often before I've begun turning to my hand-held almost all the time now.

That picture is interesting tiber, that is very close to the style I'm trying to get at here.

Mark, thank you a great deal. I'm going to try this. I've been over exp only 1 stop but sometimes not backlit. So you think I should place the incident dome at the face and have it face the camera? I've used Richards and I felt they are by far the best I've ever used but now with my darkroom...

Ta da indeed. Just for info guys, here is another photographer that gets that same look that I am trying to get. I don't always want to shoot this but sometimes I wish I could. http://josevillablog.com/

Tim, he own a Noritsu Minilab, the 2500 I believe.

I think bracketing is a good idea. Also, I notice on a lot of his images he has shot directly into the sun.... I'll give this a try with the 400H first, then the 800z. I really do love fuji color films. Even use their instax...

Thanks guys. We are all on the same page. So, it's not grabbing the film and pods when I pull on the two tabs. So how does one Tweak this up. It's impossible to grab, I've even tried using a size zero screw-driver..? Thank you again.

This is what I get but perhaps he is shotting directly into the sun. And this was a nasty day so I'm sure I did not over exp. 800z is no doubt my fav color neg. When it looked like they were going to discontinue it, I cried... :) Thank you much.

Well, you see Vaughn, this is very interesting. First, per the instructions on the 55 and the pola holder, I move to "L" before I put the sheet in. Is this not correct. Does this little silver tab "JAM" the end of the film sheet (Black bar) and prevent the film from coming out. I have to...

It does look a bit "lensbabyish" Very nice photos Keith, I'd be interested in knowing. I use the 800z quite a bit and don't get that. This guy uses a Contax 645 a lot and I don't think they make a lensbaby for that. Thank you.
