Camera Talk

Should work if you can get the shutter blades thoroughly dry afterwards. Maybe dunk in a very light solvent as a last pass before drying with air. Watching your progress with interest!

Working ok from here

Thanks for the comments!

Which 400 speed film did you use?

It was Ilford HP5+, bulk loaded, expired August 2022. Really need to finish this 100 ft roll before it turns sour, which is a good incentive to keep shooting.

Finally got to roll’s end in the Pen D3. Half frame in this little camera is a pleasure, I should use it more often. Took it first to the Candombe group street rehearsal. They do it at dusk; I shot a long series at 1/100, f/8. They start by preparing the drums. https://hosting.photobucket.com/186bde...

Tough luck! Hope you other LF cameras keep doing their job!

Impressive.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! Not easy to go out for photography in winter, kudos for your decision.

Nice landscape and clouds!

What a shame you can't explore those old buildings more. Here we have very few abandoned buildings, and "health and safety" prevent you getting close. Yes, no chances taken, the place is full of warning signs, entrances closed with wire mesh. But those old coal deposits are made of stone,...

Took the little Perkeo, loaded with expired Tri-X, to a street rehearsal of a Candombe group. Underexposed like heck, and processed in my last drops of home-made D76. Scan technology to the rescue, but horrible grain. https://hosting.photobucket.com/186bdee3-b3ac-4c5b-a283-35846fbfd9f8/2ce19067-30ae...
