Some more 01/1998 Fuji Neopan 1600 Pro this time in FX-37

08 March 2024 - 04:05 AM

CAMERA was NIKON F65 and I used several lenses -- I have 2 long zooms given AF Nikkor 70-210mm f4.5.6 D and AF Nikkor 70-300mm f4-5.6 G . I diluted the FX-37 1+3 and gave it 5 mins @20oC - thin negs couod have been rated 400 ASA instead of 800ASA

Trip to CHELMSFORD Essex with my 'Gift' F75

28 January 2024 - 04:56 AM

I went with Wife to CHELMSFORD Essex ENGLAND and had to suffer 'Going Round Shops' BUT managed to get a few snaps with my F75 + AF Nikkor 35-80mm f4 D loaded with outdated 'ACTIVA' ( KONICA) 400 film rated 250 ASA and home-processed in C41

The BUTCHER's SHOP was on a 50mm f2 Nikkor-H as I needed F2.8

F5 with some 11/1992 dated ORWO NP20 in 2-bath developer

20 January 2024 - 04:36 AM

All taken on the AF Nikkor 28-80mm f3.3-5.6 G lens I don;t think it is all that 'Sharp' at 80mm and full aperture - still 'Testing' Next time I may try D23 formula to see if the film 'Grain' gets better.
