I have a sink. What I dont have is free and clear access to the windows. They are blocked by 3 issues, plumbing, the ceiling cuts across them, and they are recessed.
Could you not black them out from the outside? Back in Canada when I was living in a basement apartment I had to block out several windows across multiple rooms. I used several very heavy duty garbage bags and taped them up on the outside of the house. It wasn't pretty, but it was easy to take down when I wasn't using the darkroom (aka my bedroom).
Now that I've sold off about 60% of my camera gear (all 35mm cameras and lenses except one)
"For his purposes"?
Sometimes I think I should collect older digital cameras which have a certain look which is good but not too refined: Let's see some grittiness at ISO 400! Sometimes I regret selling my Ricoh GX100 for that very reason. Ditto my Canon Powershot SD1000, one of the very rare cheap compacts which appeared to have weak antialiasing and little noise reduction. It was perhaps the finest photographic purchase I have made from an office-supply store to date.
There's been a lot of advancement in sensor technology since 2008. My DSLR is from that period of time or slightly earlier and shooting at ISO1600 is a painful experience. Today's cameras shoot well in excess of ISO6400 without much image degradation at all. I dont see how one can objectively say that a 2008 camera is as good as one today.
Blimey Ratty, what have you done with all that Fuji C200 you bought? It was your favourite colour film and you told us you had a few years of stock.
My Canon 5D has unbeatable 1600, it was my default ISO. It is 2005 camera. I owned MKII after it shortly and rendering was next to awful. I'm not sure if electronically cleaned high ISO is worth it from current cameras.
My 500D from 2008 is just as capable of 6400 and 12800. I learned very simple rule from P.O.T.N. members.
As long as you provide enough light to the camera it will handle it well. At least it is the rule for many Canon DSLRs.
what i really dont like in this thread is the starbucks advertisement!!
maybe it's a huge face?$20,000 on shaving equipment? Good god, I can't even imagine how that is possible.
Sounds like gearhears without photography myth to me. Canon 6D gives one of the clearest high ISO. But who in real world cares?I still have my Fuji TX-1. I consider that a medium format camera rather than 35mm even though it uses 35mm film. The final image size falls under the medium format classification IMO.
Canon today is routinely considered to have the worst high ISO performance. Sony and Nikon are considerably better.
simply not true.no one was advertising anything, mentioned any coffee company by name or logo or hint .. but YOU
My wife has been telling me for more than forty years to get myself a mistress and set her up in an apartmentMy wife was born in rural China, and so had next to nothing for most of her life. She rarely ever buys herself anything. She's quite the miser and only now at 53 years old is learning how to treat herself to anything. She would never buy something like an expensive set of shoes or a designer purse.
My wife has been telling me for more than forty years to get myself a mistress and set her up in an apartmentbecause it would be cheaper than my photography

whew it wasn't me
mmm vienna !
gotta thank those ottoman soldiers for needing to stay up all night
before the long walk home ...
i agree they are kind of aggressive and can be obnoxious .. o well ..
sorry i was blinded by thinking it was moi ..
Glad you've got a camera to run the film through.
I have thought about that, but not using garbage bags and tape. I dont know how well that will hold up, but I think it is worth trying. My thought was to just spray paint these block windows black. If tape can reliably hold up a plastic covering, then that would be easily removable.
Thank you for the suggestion.

Money can get vacuumed pretty fast if you start collecting "New Old Stock", limited editions, customs, prototypes & all the memorabilia.maybe it's a huge face?
Not to sound saucy here, but did you think about printing/processing late at night? Very little light at 2am and what may come in from the street lights should be easily blocked with even the most rudimentary efforts. I doubt it's everyone's cup of tea to be up late at night but for those that don't mind it may be a viable solution. Your mileage may vary however.I have thought about that, but not using garbage bags and tape. I dont know how well that will hold up, but I think it is worth trying.

While not in the ocean yacht racing financial sink hole, I'm continually amazed how quickly people chop in top of the range digital cameras.
