Yeah man totally agree im thinking like Lf and 6x6 for me i got some atl 2 real cheap so i can process at home now so makes it even better.
plus you can print too, which i want to do.

he can probably sell it for more than he got it for like me, instead of keeping it then it being worthless, e.g d200. although Fx will probably keep its prices.
can always buy another d700 if he changed his mind.

Yeah that's what I meant... It's an awesome camera don't get me wrong, I don't get any income from photography and I would rather shoot film as I have access to a minilab where I work now, and its alot cheaper, and its more exciting having to wait to see your pictures.

I got the D700 right when it came out and paid around $3200 with tax... I'm loosing about $800 which ain't that bad, I really would like to take a road trip or something with the money I get from selling my digital.

I love the idea of having a Mamiya 6. It would be awesome but I don't know if I could deal with the F3.5.
Even with this in mind though, I keep coming back to the idea of getting rid of my 500cm for one.
If you have a hassy I'd stay with it. The mamiya is a great camera but since I got my hassy fixed I haven't touched it. The 3.5 doesn't bother me since my hassy lens is an f4. I should have got a mamiya 7 (they are still servicable) but I just wanted a square shooter to keep in my bag.

Most of these cameras I inherited from my Grandfather and Mother since I'm the only member of my family who has any interest in this stuff at all. I know that my brother has my grandfathers Leica R3 MOT and I want to see if he'll send it to me to use. The flash was a gift from my brother but I can't find any information on this thing anywhere.

Hmm - I think I need more Canons.
What's in the picture:
Canon 40D
Canon 1N
Canon IXY digital (SD400 that was sold in Japan, and was cheaper than the US version when I bought it, so why not)
Canon AE1 (with split-prism focusing screen and eyecup which make it usable)
Canon 17-40 4.0L
Canon 70-200 4.0L
Canon 28-105 3.5-4.5
Canon 50mm 1.8 (FD)
Canon 550EX with a piece missing, but it still works.
Bogen/manfrotto 488 tripod head with hexagon quick release, which is HORRIBLE, and takes way too long to attach or remove the camera, but it's sturdy as hell.
Bogen/manfrotto ground level tripod. Great piece of gear because it's a tripod you can fit in a small shoulder bag, but you have to find a ledge or bench or something or shoot from the ground. Live view helps tremendously if you have to shoot from the ground, by the way.
On payday I'm gonna order an FD mount 85 1.2L, just because I could have such a great piece of glass for relatively cheap.

Meanwhile, the price of good color processing is slowly climbing. I saw two Noritsu minilabs on craigslist here in dallas for like $400 each. That's less than a D40. I don't do enough volume, but if I had a garage or something, I would probably start a small-time photo lab. With what pro labs charge for MF/LF color processing, I'm sure I could get enough business to keep the thing running.

Yes i got this stupidly cheap, i can sell one of the drums for more than i got it for. and yeah this is going to be allot cheaper for 120 and 5x4 processing plus i can do it all at home no waiting for a week to get my photos.

The chemistry isn't really too cheap from what I understand though. Either way, that's awesome and I hope you can keep it running for a while. I hardly ever shoot color, and normal BW developing works fine for me. Either way I'm pretty jealous. It has a dryer incorporated, right?
A Tetenal Kit only cost around 30-40£s and that does like 100 rolls and im sure you can push more out of it. Same with E6. i didnt want a processor this big id would have got a little jobo but for the same price i found this and does it all for you so why not. to have something like this you really should be shooting atleast 10 rolls a day.
Quote from: Seb_C;3177295
Luke that is such a cool setup! I've seen a few minilabs for sale but they dont really fit in a 1 bedroom flat!
Yeah if you can find a cheap one id go for it, I would have liked a Atl 1500. But i didnt really want to spend over £400.

Yes they have allot more than you would think. My Toyo seems more precise and allot more smooth to move all the movements but this thing is so small and light i love it.
All i want now is a 6x7 roll film holder, your going to see allot from this thing this year.
5x4 are seriously impossible to shoot at night you can see the image for shit.

You can even map the image out on the ground glass to compose and use movements. Very useful. I do it all the time even when it's not totally dark, because it's way easier to say, focus on the front surface of something smooth, when you shine the laser on it. Otherwise, if there is no texture you have to like squint and shit. Anything you want sharp, shine the laser on it and focus till the spot is small. It's like having selective AF points, uh, kind of. I've even done swing to get different elements in focus. There's a keychain laser pointer permanently magnet'd in my speed graphic.

One thing i noticed when i was using V4's was that the battery connection in the receivers was real lose and wouldn't make good contact. If yours is like this i'd recommend taking the whole thing apart and bending the connection out thats attached to the circuit board. The connection thats closer to the edge of the receiver is just too weak and can break easily.

It's a huge improvement over the old 50 1.4, very fast AF, better contrast wide open and very light. If you plan on upgrading and don't have any old film cameras(the 50 1.4G won't work on any manual focus Nikons), its definitely worth the money, I keep the lens on my camera all the time.

Post by: Robbb on February 07, 2010, 07:23:28 AM
i really like it 'til now but it's my first day with it so i can't say much about it. it's pretty compact and i love the rf focusing. the screen is much brighter than that of the xa and makes focusing totally easy. but the annoying things are:
1. the lightmeter is always working and you have to put the lenscap on to "turn it off"
2. i already wasted a few frames because of forgetting to take the cap off the lens
3. it uses a 1.35V mercury cell that isn't sold anymore, so you have to get an adaptor which is about half the price i paid for the camera.
now i'm just excited to see the results.

It's great you got a good deal but I've played with one in a camerashop a few times and it was the most digusting thing in the world to focus with that system.

i bought a new ultron after i sold that one to you, i am in the market for a nice 35 cron now. black paint m4's are rare, how did you come across that?
We got it in on trade with a bunch of stuff and the gear was all the persons fathers who had just passed away. They had no clue what it was, or what it was worth and we gave them fair money for the trade in, however no one I work with knows that BP is worth a ton more, or that it's rare so I picked up the BP M4 for $450. I also paid $300 for a 35mm Summilux because there was fungus and the focusing tab was broken off. $100 later and the Summilux seriously looks new. DAG cleaned it and replaced the tab and the glass is perfect and it focuses great. So I lucked out huge.

Worth more than my car (but not by as much as the Nikon version is). Can't say I wouldn't love to have one, though.
I was at a Nikon store yesterday, and some guy came in and wanted to feel the 500mm I think it was. He ended up getting it with a D3 for like 12000 dollars. I was standing in the corner thinking "hmmm is this bag worth 200 bucks.."

Only the one from the thread. Won't be here until Wednesday. You should be getting your lens sometime this upcoming week, if international shipping timeframes are to be trusted. But I sort of find it hard to believe that a lens going from the US west coast to east coast is going to be slower than the US to the UK.

I just got so burnt out on digital. My friends and everyone around me shoot digital and photoshops their shit to hell. It just got to the point where I didn't even want to take photos anymore. And the whole "click shutter button, check lcd screen, delete, reshoot, repeat" business gets old. I started on film and ill always prefer film. I've been wanting a medium format set up for years, and to finally have one, especially a hasselblad... Definitely the most excited I've been about anything in a long time.
Yeah, Ive started to shut off the LCD, limit the amount of photos, and force myself not to look at them until I get back to the hotel - when shooting at night

I guess if you run around with an easier to use 35mm camera than the hassy would allow you to shoot more and more spontaneous pictures.

but im thinking about switching iso, storage of memory cards (film takes alot of space and you cant leave it in a warm car, take it through Xray without hassle and so. the only "really" good think about film while traveling is no need for batteries. but then again we all have cellphones with us so we need to charge it every now and then

they're pretty cheap and can be had in sizes that hold up to 50 rolls of film.
the one i have now dwarfs the 15 rolls I have in it.
Last summer I brought my digi and film, this time around I'm just bringing 35mm.
Just make sure you bring enough film and extra batteries.

led bags is super good. until you realize that you just turn up the power on the xray to see straight through the bag.
I just figured, after seeing a big lead bag in your bag, they would just open it after it came out of the xray machine.
Then look into the bag, see it was just film and dismiss it.
I haven't tried using mine yet so I guess I'll find out.

Just keep your film in your hand luggage and you will be fine.
Your checked baggage and your carry-on baggage get x-rayed at least once.

Quote from: dstrctn;3373335
Your checked baggage and your carry-on baggage get x-rayed at least once.
It does, but the x-rays used for checked luggage are of a much greater intensity than those used for hand luggage. The ones used for hand luggage will have little to no effect on most film. Slide struggles more, as does film with a higher ISO rating. Last time I went away my film (Portra 400VC) went through five x-rays when it was unexposed and then another five exposed. There was not a hint of damage and I think I had eighteen films in all. The chances of getting your film damaged using a high street photolab compared to getting them ruined by an airport scanner must be close to 100:1.
You can also ask for hand inspection if you want. They can refuse, it depends who you speak to. If you have a lead bag they will often re-scan it, doubling the chance of it getting shagged (particularly if you have no idea of the effectiveness of the bag). If they're suspicious they will get it out and check anyway.
It always strikes me as being absolutely pointless using one. Just walk up with the films you have and ask for them not to be scanned if you're really bothered. If they say yes, it will set your mind at ease. If they say no, there's fuck all you can do about it. Putting those films in a lead bag at this point would just make them suspicious. I already look borderline homeless and like I'm on a different planet, I do not need to bring any more attention my way, particularly seeing as I have something in my knee that will set off the metal detector without fail. I often have prescription painkillers with me as well. I don't think I've ever got through security in less than ten minutes. Faffing about with lead bags will not help my cause.

I don't worry about carry-on xrays, because I don't think there is any risk of xray damage from them. I worry more about the security assholes exposing my film to light in the course of the idiocy.
Of course I don't fly at all now, ever since they made it illegal for people with dignity.

you pretty much have the right to get it hand checked. at least in the US. just put it in a transparent plastic bag and tell them that it's film and that it is two weeks work or something. (kinda sketchy, cause it would be pretty easy to fill them with something explosive hah)
led bags, the xray machinist will recognize and know what it is, if it's not the first day at the machine. they will just increase the strength until they see straight through it.
i've done a test with my mju. passed the xray about 50times and the apx100 made it out fine. i've fogged some portra 400nc though. and i know that jfax fogged something on his trip (right?)
the xray at the carry on is way weaker than the checked luggage. so don't leave your film in that bag.
on another note, it's really fun to crawl through the carry on xray, fastest way to see if anythings broken haha
Post by: Robbb on December 15, 2010, 03:17:19 PM
took a huge bag full of film with me, in my carry-on bag, mostly kodak and fuji 400 colour film and some t-max400 on a short distance flight inside europe. (i believe the security checks in europe are way weaker than in the us.)
but anyway nearly every film has that typical x-ray damage in wave form. even the unexposed rolls that i exposed a few months after the x-ray treatment still got that wavy pattern albeit not that strong as the already exposed films.

i tested it back home and cut the piece just small enough to avoid getting the framelnes dark(35mm) but still increase the contrast in the patch and making the 135 or 90 wichever you see when yo have the 35mm frameline up go a little bit darker

Both have their advantages, but the d700 is just better in my opinion.
The AF on the 5d simply sucks, compared to nikon's.
Also the handling of the nikon is way better, except for choosing single af-points, you can do that faster and easier on the canon.
All in all, the canon is a really nice camera, the video-option is reaaaally nice, but if you don't need that, the nikon is just the better camera.

Honestly, I'm biased with Nikon. I've used plenty of Canons and they never felt "right" to me. I just thought I'd get your input seeing as you are the owner of both and have plenty of experience with them. A d700 is on my wish list as of late, no idea when I'll be getting one though.
Post by: austrian on December 18, 2010, 04:58:47 AM
And sometimes the 21mp of the canon are nice to have, but most of the time, you don't need them.
oh and btw, i don't own the canon, it belongs to the studio where i work, we also have a 1d IV which i like a lot more than the 5d, it feels better and the af is way better!
Post by: Jens M on December 18, 2010, 07:26:32 AM
Think like this: if both were 12, what would you get? Only people that does fashion needs that many pixels (and it's only the editing that needs them, the billboards aren't even that high res).
Just skimmed this page, so sorry if it has nothing to do with the resolution. Talking as a D700 user though, I've started to get dependent on all the quick switches on my D700, after using it these 3 months. Going from 51point Af, two switches (one point Af and continuous Af) and I have focus tracking on the subject I choose. I've also set the regular "choose a point Af" to 11 points, which makes it fast for me to move the point across the viewfinder since you usually do not have to be spot on, just move one degree and Af, hold and take photo.
The most useful thing that I would have a hard time without, only after three months with it, is that I set the middle button on the multiselector to 100% zoom on the image - one second to check the sharpness. It zooms 100% on the focuspoint you used in the photo.
Post by: austrian on December 18, 2010, 08:40:02 AM
Not only fashion "needs" the resolution, there are more and more kind of clients who want the high resolution from the different kinds of photos (even though they don't need it, but explain that to a client)
Oh and also stock photography..you just get more money for the bigger photos..
But all in all, I've never had a problem with my 12mp d700.
Post by: Pffffff on December 18, 2010, 09:15:16 AM
And I am not sure about it, but I think that if you used the same quality lens for nikon 12mp body and canon 21mp, even if canon might look softer at full-size, i bet it would be as sharp, if not sharper when reduced to 12mp.
Of course D700 is a great camera, it almost made me change systems, but I am canon guy. I don't know why, but I find it more comfortable for me.
Post by: austrian on December 18, 2010, 11:39:22 AM
An nikon is sharper because their antialising filter is thinner. But most of these things are only important for pixel-peepers, and won't have any effect on actual shooting and using it.

I picked it up at an antique store for $35 the other day. It's mint condition (after I wiped a bunch of red dust off), with a selenium meter, coupled shutter speed and aperture(!!), leaf shutter and a 45mm f1.9 7 element lens. I just ran the first roll through, can't wait to see the quality! I'll post the best stuff up here when I get it developed.

I like it a lot (especially with the Panasonic lens). Only big downfall is the lack of a viewfinder (I'm not used to using the screen to compose shots). I'm going to get the VF-1 external finder to fix that.
If you get a E-P2 or E-PL1 you can get the digital finder which works with all lenses, shows focus and exposure data etc.

I have one of those and a regular stylus. I don't like them as much as the XAs because of shutter lag but you got to admit the AF and built-in flash makes them more versatile. The one thing that annoys me is that the flash always resets to auto when you close it, so every time I open it I have to press the flash button twice.
I really like mine, but similarly hate the flash. The Mju II (Stylus Epic) is the camera that I always have with me. I wish it could focus a little closer than it does though.

Nice! What's with these lenses? I hear a lot about them on LF forum, but what are the main things that make it a "petzval"? The apperture?
its just the cut and quality of glass and the way the lens is built. Petzval lenses are most notable for their super dreamy swirl bokeh.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/richard314159/galleries/72157624453174055/ (http://www.flickr.com/photos/richard314159/galleries/72157624453174055/)
most antique brass lenses have the swirl mostly because they are just holes for the aperature opening. but the way the glass is cut and arranged on a petzval creates a more intense swirl and seperation from the back and foreground

It also has small pitting on the body so the tape will also keep moisture out, and protect the paint some more, Im a sucker for keeping shit in nice condition.

That looks awesome, glad to see you took the tape off.
Do you loose much light using that red filter?

Yeah i took most of the tape off, still some to cover up the name.
It seems to be around 2 stops, the sky becomes totally awesome, I'm pretty sure that Trent Parke guy would have used a red filter.
Post by: scott on August 15, 2011, 05:18:48 AM
I should probably tape over that stuff as well; or at least the little red dot.

I've looked into them a little, but I always find myself struggling for enough light. Even shooting at 800 I sometimes have some issues so I'm not sure that a filter is the best idea; even though the results are awesome.

Sounds like you would like a yellow or orange filter!!
Yeah ill only have the red filter on if its sunny.

b+w seem to make the best filters. They seem like very good quality to me.

Actually it seems the half frame function is only on the first Auto-Reflex, it was dropped on the T2 and T3.
I have 2 T3 frames. I was going to offer you one of them for the cost of postage (since I have no use for them), but you probably wouldn't want it as it doesn't have the half frame function.

I had all my money in glass since I was waiting on the D4. Aside from that DX is pretty helpful for motor sports since its basically a free 1.5 TC with no change to F-stop. My 300mm F2.8 with a x1.4TC is like having a 630mm F4 when on the D7000.

I'm thinking of getting an F100 next month to replace my F-601. Kinda of a bit of motivation to go rinse the darkroom at uni before I have to pay for things. I'll like it won't I?
Probably. Everything feels the same as a dslr to me but it shoots film basically.

I love mine. I was actually considering selling mine to get an F5 though, but then I got laid off, so that plan is on the backburner. :l

My 50mm gets soft at f/2.
I think it actually gets sharper. If it's the 1.8D, it's sharpest at like f/5.6

D600, 50mm f1.4, 20mm f2.8, SB600 & nikon cleaning kit.
Reverse side of the pouch has enough room for both chargers (flash and camera batteries) extra batteries for both, 2x sd cards, and my remote.
Missing my tripod from the picture, Oben CT3500.
Saving for an 80-200 f2.8 as well as a 60mm f2.8 macro to round out my kit.
Having a digital again is really nice.

Post by: dstrctn on February 05, 2013, 12:18:07 PM
Every time I handle it I like it more haha.
And Jens I've been using manual solely on an FM10 for the last 2+ years so it isn't really anything to get used to. Only time it can be somewhat difficult is all the way down at f1.4 since there is so little margin for error.

Also, hoping KatzEye comes out with some screens for the new Nikon bodies. I just bought a new body and all my lenses are of the AIS variety. Hearing you are having good luck with the focus indicator is good news.

About the oil/dust, from what I've read - it disappears on most of them after 3000 shots.

Jens, the ad is mine, I had the cash but couldnt completely justify keeping it for myself. So I put up an ad to see if I would get anyone interest and perhaps make a small profit off it, so far nothing.

dude!I had to buy the long glass since I work as a freelance motorsport photographer. Oddly enough I bought the big stuff before I bought the wider primes.

It's basically the same thing but has screen that can tilt, hotshoe for optional electronic viewfinder (Sony's one is way too expensive, waiting for some other brand to jump in), a slightly better sensor and it has wifi. That last thing seemed a bit obsolete at first but actually it's really cool to be able to use my ipod touch as a a wireless remote (with liveview!). The camera creates it's own network which you than can join with any mobile device so you can even use it out in the jungle. I will see how much I will actually use that...

Left to right:
Olympus E-PM1 with the Panasonic 14 mm f/2.5 pancake
DSLR quality in a tiny package, I love this camera. Also as a 300 € setup I think it has amazing value. Backup and snapshot camera, or when I need the photo quickly.
Leica M6 with the Voigtländer 35 mm f/1.4 Nokton Classic MC
My new main camera. Street, portraits, sports, everything.
Bronica SQ-A with the Zenzanon 80 mm f/2.8
Mainly for landscape work, though I shoot some skating and BMX with this as well.

Selling both my Zeiss glass due to the fact I need the AF versions now for what I'm shooting.

Before getting the 85 afs, think about the sigma 85.
I had the old nikon 1.8 before and have never been really happy with it, so I was in the market for a better 85 this summer, thought about getting the nikon but I ended up with the sigma. even a used like-new version.
One of my most favourite lenses by far. And I'm really picky. Used it on about 8 weddings, portrait jobs, everything. Has never failed on my. Super fast AF, sharp, feels good in the hand. To sum it up, one of my best lenses. And way cheaper than the nikon.

I got my Sony RX100 stolen in China, and the RX100-II just came out last week so I got that instead.
(http://images.gizmag.com/inline/sony-rx100ii-6.jpg)

The new RX-100 mark3 is out now. In addition to a little more tilt on the screen, it's relocated the flash for a digital viewfinder (not many of these cameras come with this) The shooting is pretty similar except the lens has traded some telephoto range for more macro.
It's great for me because I will use it mainly for shooting product design projects and work, as well as on my travels, and taking pictures of people. Used to think I would be a DSLR man, then maybe a mirrorless interchangable lens, but then I saw the functionaity of this thing, and the image quality! Really really impressed in low light, great for creatures of the night.
The wifi feature is dope, which has elevated my instagram game to superman status (2 new followers in 2 weeks) but I have to imagine I'm gonna want to poke my fucking eyes out when I uncover the number of duplicates.
Love it though really, and I will be making some attempt to put the best photos from my west coast road trip next week on my instagram. @milkywilky if you want to see what up.
