Cold enhances reciprocity, but advance film slowly because static electrical discharge can mess up the negative.

When a camera has AF, I use the auto focusing and rarely need to adjust. When the focusing is manual, I focus manually.

Either work with or without staining.

1) I have used this since 1963, for slides it has been bang on every time: http://f-sunny.com/night-exposures-in-a-jiffy/ https://www.cppdh.org/download/jiffy-calculator-for-night-light-exposures.pdf https://www.flickr.com/photos/46322625@N05/30151457250 <=== This one, on the back tells you how...

I can buy a 50 Megapixel [35mm] camera so the 50 Megapixel Hasselblad is photographically like a 10 Megapixel [35mm] camera. That is no great shakes for me.

This is from the time when APUG did not want to show up on searches for eBay. It is a long held tradition.

Thank you the post. Welcome to APUG Photrio!!

Thank you for the information. Yes, it is great, but I do not want to go digital until film is no longer available. I figure that I might just be able to use film for at least the next twenty years and by then the phones will be much better.

Most of my lenses are CF and I have two Cs. So none of them have the electronic interfaces.

They sell Hewes reels and will do the exchange. How do I know? I went through that with them ten or so years ago.

Although well done Modern Photography and Popular Photography had side by side comparisons of slide films from many manufactures and yet because of the limits of magazine printing, it was hard to compare some of them. On internet, many comparisons do not show enough differences to make choices.

OMG KR finally wrote something useful. Damnit I am going to pour myself a drink. Would you like one? :redface::redface::redface::redface::redface: I even learned something from him with my F100

I would bet that the reels are bent. Are the top and bottom parallel?

Yes, it is catching at the cross bars and the film should not be doing that. Call FreeStyle and explain the problem. I like to talk to Oliver Tam there.

OT In college when I worked summers as a draftsman, one of the coworkers had spent a long time doing an ink rendering of a gear train on Mylar. My boss and I one night turned the Mylar over and with white grease pens drew railroad engineers and mechanics with oil cans and wrenches working...

If you got them from FreeStyle, have the receipt and it has not been too long, they will give you your credit for them to trade for the Hewes reels.

The ex-in-laws were the first to go. Besides people want to see the sights and vista not the sagging bodies.

Just take out the photos of the ex and you will be good to go.

The film is binding on the reels. What kind of reels are you using? I found the Hewes stainless steel reels were well worth the extra money. You can get them at FreeStyle, one of our sponsors. https://www.freestylephoto.biz/

Except for my in-laws, everyone enjoyed and asked to see my slides since the slides were well composed a follow a story-line, usually the travel log or about a subject which was being explained. It is a skill, not a bunch of snaps of the family at the beach where they are like ducks in a line...

Tap for air bells [air bubbles]. The dents have something to do with the film getting caught in the grooves. A suggestion: As you wind the film on, if you feel the edge of the film on one side is a little higher than the other rounds, you have something wrong with the way the film is sitting...

Some of the focal plane shutters were intolerant of finger pokes, but basically they were not rugged and the parts are not available. Even when parts and service were available, my Hasselblad repairman strongly discouraged me from even looking at the 200 and 2000 series. I am glad that I...

The 907x body body is expensive for my tastes, and I would rather spend that kind of money for travel. Also I would have to rent Photo$hop.

Even F and F2 bodies?

For snorkeling or just swimming one is limited to a maximum depth of 2 meters aka 6 feet I see that Nikon via Nikonos recommended A2 or A12 filters for could film. I cannot either, new or used. What is a good substitute? Is there a very weak orange filter, Y15, 81A, 81B, 81C, 81EF?

I got tired of darkroom printing so I am teaching myself to learn to play not one but two musical instruments. In the past I taught myself to speak a foreign language. I learn new thinks to keep active and young.

Double or cut the time in half for an f/stop change.

It is not worth the health risks to go out and shoot film. So I would rather help other people with photography until things get better. People helped men in the past and now it is time for me to help others.

It is easy and more practical to get the enlarger properly aligned first rather than making a hand crafted one of a kind item.

Thank you! I book marked these.
