What camera or lens did you shoot today?

Sirius Glass · Feb 22, 2016

I took some wildlife photographs with my two new lenses: f/8 C 500mm lens with and without the Hasselblad 2XE and the f/3.5 CF 100mm lens.

This thread is a cheap rip off on the "What film did you shoot today?", "What did you print today?", "What did you fix today"?", "What did you eat for breakfast?", and the classic "Which side of the bed did you wake up on?"

It was yesterday, but I used my Agfa Isolette folder at the park with my daughter after school. It fits nicely in a cargo pants pocket when I am going for a walk that might yield a picture or two.

Since this question is in a medium format forum, I assume you only want medium format answers.

Since this question is in an analog forum, I assume you only want film cameras.

Taking the Bronica SQ-A out for gathering with some other local film photographers here in Dallas tomorrow.

We do not discriminate on format size as long as it is digital. Film cameras only.

I'd love to see you shoot that 500mm. I had a Pentax 400mm FA lens once for Pentax 645N and Nll cameras. I never shot it. I just held onto it and flipped it after the Pentax 645D digital cameras came out. Made an $800.00 profit on that one. See, digital is good for something!

The lens is too unwieldy to shoot hand held so I used it on a tripod. Then I took the camera off the lens, put the 2XE extender on the camera and then put the two on the lens to shoot.

One thousand mm, wow!

I thought about shooting my daughter pitching fast pitch softball with the 400mm but I didn't have a place to sit up a tripod during a game.

I took the dogs and pentax 6x7 with the 105mm f2.4 lens to the woods in the park this afternoon.

etn · Feb 24, 2016

Didn't shoot at all today. (shame on me!)
But I spent a few days in Barcelona with my SWC and a few rolls of Portra 400 last weekend.

I just got a pup a few months ago, there's not much better than taking your dog and camera for a walk together! Mamiya 645AFd and 150mm N lens today

P.s. My dog avatar is a friends bulldog.

Retina IIIc The creek was clear from the last storm & the water was appealing. 'No pod, so we'll see how it went.
Crumpet8 - 'Grats on the new 4-legger. 'Hope you enjoy many years. You realize that mean you never have an excuse not to post images...

Sirius - would be nice to hear more about using that bazooka, maybe a glimpse at a shot.

TheFlyingCamera · Feb 25, 2016

Tele-Rolleiflex. Finished off the roll of Portra 400 in the camera on my way to work. Will try to burn another two rolls before the weekend so I can run a batch of C-41.

I've been playing with a few cameras lately.

ETRS with a 30mm shooting very old tall trees.

ETRS with a body cap and pinhole lens.

And this week I'm taking my collection of yashicamats for a walk in the park so they all get some exsersize.

Then I may take my folders out.

k.hendrik · Feb 25, 2016

I'm taking the G2 with 28 and 90mm the next week to Fuerteventura; loaded with Rollei Retro80s. We'll see.

Paul in Arizona · Feb 25, 2016

Began a roll in a newly acquired Zenobia -a 6x4.5 Japanese folder from around the 1950s. Glass is perfect, shutter speeds sound accurate so I'm hopeful that there will be some useful results. So far just some test shots and a few snaps of family.

studiocarter · Feb 26, 2016

A Hawkencam with a flipped lens and with an added 1+ close-up attachment was used with Ilford's 3200 ISO film. What is a Hawkencam? A Frankensteinish Cobbled together, fixed, patched, cleaned, flipped Brownie Kodak Hawkeye camera. My blog has a few photos.

trondareo · Jul 19, 2017

I shot my Durst Laborator 1000 today - does that count?

macfred · Jul 19, 2017

Bronica ETRSi (back from repair) - Zenzanon PE 75mm f/2.8 - TriX

Sirius Glass · Jul 19, 2017

I did my quarterly fire all Hasselblad lenses multiple times today to keep them ready and not needing a CLA.

RichardJack · Jul 19, 2017

I took a few photos at an Arboretum with my Bronica EC-TL with 40mm f4 Nikkor D-C, 50mm f2.8 Nikkor O-C, & 75mm f2.8 Nikkor H-C. I'm having a lab develop my Portra 400 negatives, if they look as good as my digital images do I'll be very happy. That camera felt great in my hands after all these years.

moto-uno · Jul 19, 2017

Fujica GL690 , 65mm f5.6 and Rollie IR 400 film with an IR850nm filter at ~1.5 ISO . This is nothing
more than an experiment with this filter as the 720 filter didn't give me the effects I'd been hoping
for . Sure hope this is a close enough guess on ISO. Might post a pic or two if I have any luck . Peter

My neighbor has a cluster of bushes and trees that form a pleasant arrangement either when frontlit by morning light or backlit by early evening light. It's a bit of a challenge to capture the mood just right, so I'm often making photos of this subject.

A month or so ago, I did make one very good photo - I think it was with my FE2 or an Exakta VX. Still, I keep at it: having one or two good photos doesn't stop me from wanting to make more.

Lately I've been trying to see if I can capture the mood with my Polaroid Image 1200 using Impossible Spectra film - it does have a somewhat surreal look in bright light. I made one photo this morning which I quickly put in a dark drawer to develop in darkness. I haven't looked at it yet.

MattKing · Jul 20, 2017

Today I used my RB67 Pro-S for two 120 rolls of TMY-2. Some shots with the 50mm lens, others with the 140mm lens.
