Pan-F at Dawlish
The day I had a walk around Dawlish Warren turned out to be a bright sunny day, even though it was mid-October. Bright enough that I decided I could use up my last roll of Pan-F from my film stash. There is talk with this film that the latent image degrades quite quickly once exposed,Continue reading “Pan-F at Dawlish”
Short Photo Walk
When I have a little spare time I try to get out and have a short walk. If it is somewhere different then so much the better, even if its not, I take the camera with me. These are a few snaps made on such an outing – no theme, just what caught my eye!Continue reading “Short Photo Walk”
When colour is too old
I had an old roll of Colorplus 200, expired in 2002. I’ve used this sort of age film before, and always allow an extra stop for age. Many people suggest that 1 stop per decade is a good idea. My experience is that while 1 stop is good, going to 2 or more just addsContinue reading “When colour is too old”
More Colour from Dawlish
For those of you who have not read my previous posts relating to my recent Devon trip. I took my Canon EOS30, with the 40mm STM lens attached for a walk around Dawlish Warren, down in sunny Devon (UK). I had the film (Fuji C200) lab developed but scanned the negs on my Epson V600Continue reading “More Colour from Dawlish”
Stand: Rodinal
I was gifted a roll of Fomapan 100. No box, so no idea what the expiry date was or indeed even if it was a viable film, for all I knew someone may have exposed it all and wound it back into the cassette! I quite often go to Poole for a walk, so decidedContinue reading “Stand: Rodinal”
Agfa APX in Poole
I believe that the “new” Agfa APX100 is the same as Kentmere 100. Question: Have you ever come across a supplier that offers both? Not that it matters any, it’s a couple of pounds cheaper than FP4, so if I ever get to the point where I need to reduce my film costs, I’ll beContinue reading “Agfa APX in Poole”
Nepal: A Country in the Clouds
When I was young there were two places in the world I wanted to visit. The first was New York. I’ll write about that another time, let’s just say for now I was on the train going there, when a chemical plant caught fire in Buffalo, flames drifted across the tracks, halted the train andContinue reading “Nepal: A Country in the Clouds”
Good Old Fuji C200
Not too long ago I was gifted a couple of rolls of Fuji C200. These, expired in Aril 2010. This is what I now refer to as “the original Fuji stuff” as opposed to the current “new Fuji C200”. If one reads the “new” box, it states made in the USA. Well Fuji don’t manufactureContinue reading “Good Old Fuji C200”
Haytor, Dartmoor
Another day spent up on Dartmoor on my recent vacation to Devon, saw me at Haytor, or Haytor Rocks to be exact. As usual for this trip I had my Hasselblad 501cm with me, the 80mm Zeiss CFi lens on and a roll of Ilford Pan-F plus in. By this point in my trip I’dContinue reading “Haytor, Dartmoor”
