Hello everybody, My name is Tunku Fawzy

[TunkuFawzy]

Hello everybody,

My name is Tunku Fawzy. As an aside, Malay names are patronymic, that is I have no surname as such. I am generally referred to as Tunku or as Fawzy, both work, and I am retired after being put to pasture.

I shoot different formats:

135 Format
120 Format
and of course digital (when I feel it is necessary or when I feel like it)

I have the following cameras:

Nikon FE, F2AS, F5, and a D850 - with a whole collection of different AI, AI-S, ED lenses.

I also have a Hasselblad 500c, with a 80mm and a 150mm lens.

Types of emulsion: both black and white, and colour.

I process my own emulsion and currently use CineStill Df96 and CineStill CS41, and scan my images using the Epson V600 / Silverfast 8. I have tried using the DSLR to capture the negative images with mixed results. I will be going back to ID 11 at some point as that is easily available in SE Asia.

As part of my workflow, I use Luminar AI and Luminar Neo.

So far, I have had challenges with uneven development, bromide drag, surges and a long list of other issues, but that is where the fun is.

I look forward to listening (reading) to the stories and experiences and obviously to pick up useful tips and ask questions, and contribute where I can.

Best regards
Fawzy

You will be able to view a lot of images processed in CineStill Df96 with new ones appearing almost daily. Looking forward to seeing some work. Just remember, when you are retired, every day is Saturday! Welcome to the forum.

Hi Fawzy! Welcome from Japan - it's nice to see new members from this part of the world.

You have a nice collection of cameras. The FE was my first real camera and remains my first love, even though I've moved on to the FM3a. Looking forward to seeing more of your work here.

That is how surnames started. All the “sens” “sons” and “dotirs” are examples.
Or they are derived from livelihood “Smiths” or “Schumacher”.
Or placenames like da Vinci or van der Meer.
