Finally got around to processing 3 120's of Panf I shot in the Bessa1 a month ago. 1 turned out to have the snow defect. Now its 20 combined vision2 250d and vision3 50d and 15 35mm HP5. I had it all under control last spring, but it's built up again.
Just one, it's a pet peeve of mine to let film sit in a camera for a long time. I have I think 2 or 3 frames of Ektachrome left in a 6x7 back for my RB67 that I didn't manage to finish before the fall colors finished where I'm at. Probably burn them off this week.
Hard to believe but none.... except for a few film holders... Hopefully the weather will perk up tomorrow then the Mammy 6 folder will have some film in her... Lets see.... I shot a roll of HP5 in it and it turned out swell... maybe a roll of Pan F... but that would mean tripod... hmmm... FP4? Oh wait, I forgot I've got some TMY!
Finished the rolls in my RB67 with RH-20 (GP3-220) film back and in my Kiev 2 (Superia X-Tra 400 immediately replaced by Kentmere Pan 100). So number of loaded cameras, while still too many, is down by one.
Finished a roll of expired Agfa Precisa CT 100 with my BeLOMO Vilia. Probably a bit of a throwaway but we'll see.
Finished a roll of equally long-expired Kodak Portra 400 VC with my Super Ikonta III. I exposed these at box-speed and they're all way underexposed except for two shots wide open which were salvagable. I have some more of these so I'll probably try overexposing by two stops next.
Finished a roll of expired Fuji Provia 400f also with the Super Ikonta III. Shot at boxspeed and xpro'd, these all turned out very lovely with a very slight green-yellowy tinge and relatively coarse grain.
Just two more rolls to finish (FED and Ikonta 521) and I'm all "caught up".
After years I now have a roll of Kodak ColoPlus loaded in my Nikon F5. When I finish that roll I will load another roll in the Yashica Lynx 14e. I have the Lynx 14 which I like better than the e version but its shutter speeds are too slow.
I have a Canon F-1n loaded with a 24 exp. roll of Fuji Superia 400. I used it this morning at the Summit, NJ farmers market. I have a black Nikkormat FT2 loaded with a 36 exp. roll of Ilford Delta 400. There is a 105/1.8 AIS Nikkor attached. Somewhere I think I have a Pentax Auto 110 with a roll of Kodacolor in it. It's in an old fanny pack (remember those?) and must have been sitting for years. Later today I will load up a Contax 167MT to test a 180/2.8 Zeiss MMJ lens I just got.
F3P and F6 both loaded with E100; M6 and F2 both loaded with HP5 Plus; four A12 backs (in -28C freezer) loaded with my last four rolls of E100G; and two A12 backs loaded with Pan F Plus.
Four:
- Canon EOS Elan 7 with Svema Micrat Orto Direct (FPP Super Positive)
- Canon AE-1 with HP5 Plus
- Holga with 320TXP
- Kodak Tele-Instamatic 608 with ancient (if not older) Kodak Gold 200
All three mags loaded, as well as several 4x5 and 8x10 holders. Was out the door early this morning with the RB, and heading out the door in the early evening with LF.
I did that back in the days. But now I can't no longer afford to do that. I have to shoot a lot less and not process the film before I finish the roll. Going back to the mode I was when I was 10 year old.
