Analog film photography and cameras

A few from Almuñecar a month ago.
M3 and I think Fujicolor C200. (Filmdev Noritsu scans, no sharpening requested.)

What kind of animal is that in the second shot in the back?

Noob alert:
I seem to have a load of Portra 160 knocking about. I’ve never done pushing of ISO, but would that be something that would make a 160 film potentially a bit more useful?

I thought it would be useful when I went to Hawaii, but it was rainy and overcast the whole time we were there.

oh yeah, i am not shooting 35mm anymore, that was just for the 'texas leica' shot :P

690 is great in use, have sent the rolls, lets see how they come out.

Now I want GSW690III. That and the Fuji GF670 is I think it for me. I already have Mamiya 7II with 43mm and 80mm but 2 cameras mean 2 diff speed films.

What do you reckon Tina?

I know this is not 160 but this guy has some good videos for pushing/pulling various films:

Ace, cheers. I was going to have a go with some tri x at first and see how I get on.

You could google (or search Flickr) for examples.
In the end I guess one should just try it out and see whether one likes the look.

You can push / pull all colour negative film (some more than others) and still get usable results.
Sometimes colours shift, and contrast changes - but you'll have to check that out yourself with the film you got in the light you're shooting in, and decide whether you like how it looks or not.

Putting together an impromptu advent calendar is causing me to revisit some old-ish pics. Good feelings :)

The common thread is that the were all done on various disposable cameras.

What do you reckon

Sounds great!

Please don't forget to keep us updated.

And post some of your shots @amey !

post some of your shots

lol, good one

Yep, I think I'm going to chuck a roll in something I can leave in my bag and get a wide range of shots from. See what happens.

the now re-homed bike pic? I'm dropping off this week at that well expensive place in old street with a load of rolls

Yes, that's the one. Great story needs a great pic to go with it... fingers crossed

Just going back to this quickly, how is this calculated? Surely dev times all matter more

lots of testing. just do it

just bought a GSW690

@miro_o want the 690?

lol

I think I'm having a reverse @amey, a #notbuyer moment. Have the money to buy a Leica thread mount or Contax IIa which I've fancied from afar for a while, but holding off.

Kind of wary of sinking money into another vintage camera that I'll turn into a shelf sitter when it's a money sink for CLA/Repairs. Also not getting enough time to go and shoot my existing cameras. Curse you sensible brain, anyone want to send me #buyer impulses my way ?

Yes pls.

Can you pm me shutter count. Any problems and what you’d like for it. I might need postage.

Don't buy.

I honestly don't know why I do it apart from the fact that its business expense for me plus I have bought all bar maybe two cameras at bottom prices, because they are commodity I can literally sell ALL for at least 50% profit.

I bet Tina is loving this chat.
