>Thoughts on Pentax's plans for a new camera. Would you spend ~$300 on a plastic fixed lens SLR to support more cameras in the future?
no doubts. But I will wait reviews first, don't want to waste money on garbage.
Also I'm bit disappointed that it will have manual rewind, I'm ok having kind a "ricoh R1" p-n-s with good lens, sharp, smart, compact with good IQ

Pentax didn't actually make any notable film compacts did they?

>>4178263
No notable cameras period since the 80s

It’s a dead company. They can’t even support the k1.

>>slow films better than fast
shit thread

yo! what's the smallest camera that you can focus through the lens (so no zone focusing).
I think it's the olympus RC/RD, asking because I need something small but manual as I'm tired of carrying my SLR with me. It's a really small SLR but the lens means I can't just pocket it.
also should I just get over it and learn zone focusing? I'd like a Rollei 35 ideally but I don't want to ZF.
thanks!

>>4178488

You can't use an RF? That would be the Olympus XA and most of the Leica and Leica clones.

If you have big enough pockets, you can fit a Nikon FG and 50mm pancake

>>4178492
yeah I can use an RF, sorry I didn't make that clear.

>>4178494

That changes things. I have an Olympus XA and it's barely the size of my wallet. Great camera. My Leica with a collapsible lens will fit, as does my Russian FED clone with collapsible lens. Any of the cheaper Leica clones should work as well Tower, Leotax, etc. The FED is the most accessible and make sure you pair it with the later Industar-50 multicoat collapsible lens. The Soviets improved on that collapsible 50/3.5 so much that Leica guys buy them for their cameras. Mine made good results. FED-2 also fits with the collapsible. Mine is calibrated to an I-50

The Nikon FG will fit in a larger pocket with the 50 Series E or the 45 GN. The Rollei 35 is a good camera too if you don't mind paying Leica prices for one.

You should learn zone focusing though, or carry an external rangefinder.

What are you fuckers shooting with today? I just finished the full lens set too, with the Schneider 85mm.

If you've been on the fence about one of those KEKS EM-01 light meters that mount on the shoe, get one

>>4178495
the XA is cool but I'd like something with a fast lens, faster than f/2 ideally. I usually shoot with the olympus OM2 with the 1.8 and I'd like to retain its shallow DOF for certain things I like to shoot. perhaps I'll have to make some compromises. The Olympus RC/RD/SP and the Canonet QL seem to be fitting this bill at the moment with their 40mm 1.7 lenses. Another option is the Minolta Hi Matic with the 45mm 1.8.

Are there any viewfinder (zone focus) cameras with under f/2 lenses? I'd be interested if something like that existed, I'd learn ZF-ing for it.

Gonna take the Sokol 2 out again for a spin, rangefinders are nice.

FG/50 Series E

Trust me on this one. I used to carry a black one with the E in a pouch on my hoodie. The FG has full manual, albeit with a battery. It's lightweight and the image quality on the E is very good. See if you can cop its Japanese brother the Nikkor with better optics. They made a Nikkor pancake which is mechanically identical to the Series E but has better coatings.

>>4178511

Not yet. Pimping/lot lizards aren't really a thing anymore with the advent of the Internet and OnlyFans. Women have learned they can make the same money without having to actually have sex, at least the smart ones have.

I do about 3 rolls a month and that means that once I mix up enough chems to develop those 3 rolls they are expiring or not ideal by the time I go to develop my next batch of 3 rolls. due to the innate nature of C41 developer I know I basically have to make it one shot, so what's the cheapest way to make one shot developer?

Get him a n6006, it's cheap as fuck, not too bulky, and it's piss easy to use

I'm about to buy an Olympus Pen F.
Someone tell me why this is a bad idea.

This is how I'm convincing myself:
I have an OM4 which I use for serious stuff / when I'm going somewhere specifically to shoot. I think the Pen F would be a good snapshit camera or if I want to try out a dumb technique but at the same time use less film doing it. I don't care for the Pen EE versions because of the worse lenses and lack of manual control, and the Olympus Pen D has great lenses but is zone focus. The only downside to the Pen F is the larger size compared to the other Pens, but it has a smaller footprint than a Leica M and if I remove the lens and put it in another pocket it's pretty much as small and discreet as an XA.

>>4179214
Pen F is an absolute marvel of technology, if you can get it without banking too much, go for it.
It have a big resale value so even if you don't like it, you won't lose money.
If you just want to snapshit, the Pen D will be better.
Half-frame sound fun to use, i got myself a Yashica 72E, cant wait to see the negatives

>>4179217
Yeah the Pen D is the only thing that's making me somewhat reconsider. It's about half the price. I guess the allure of the F is that I can switch from snapshit to effortlessly taking proper photos in an instant thanks to the better focusing system.

alright I backed out on the Pen. I realised that scanning half frame is more expensive from the lab so I'll basically need my own scanner otherwise it's only negligibly cheaper to have 72 exposures vs 36. In reality I think to go half frame I'll need to budget 350 for the Plustek then the cost of the camera itself. Perhaps one for next year I guess.

>>4178719
Based. Go to a hall of cost museum and take some 1488 pics.

>>4179423
Can't you just ask the lab to scan it like any pic and then crop by yourself?

This is an old-timey slide duplicator. Those things are stupid cheap on ebay, like 5-20$

Ask tmax400/XX anon, he uses such setup with (imo) great results

I am a massive beginner, and recently got an old Vivitar slr. The light meter works great, and I'm getting back some B&W I pushed 2 stops. How do I just "know" what fstop, and shutter to use? The fstop is what bothers me, as I understand what speed would make sense, but then throwing the amount of light fstop throws in messes me up. Do I just trust the selenium light meter, use an app? sorry for being a dumbass

>>4179449
I can I suppose, though it necessitates having to buy the highest res scan so I can crop it. That's basically a difference of around £7 per roll.

>>4179511
not a pro but f stop will just change the size of the depth of field and with some lenses the optical quality (vignetting) gets better/worse at certain focal lengths. I know my lens is sharpest around f/4 so I try to keep it around there, then depending on subject I'll keep an eye on shutter speed (i shoot on AE priority). But generally for everyday stuff any shutter speed will freeze the photo, only matters for vehicles.

>>4179038

if you had 5000 dollarydoos for a darkroom setup, what would it look like?

I really really want one. The last time I saw an original model Pen F go for a good price here in Europe was a year ago, and I should have bought it then. What I find really fucking cool about the Pen F is that it's the smallest SLR ever, and it's an all mechanical technological marvel. A small but handy camera that you can slap a tele on, or use with a f/1.4 lens.

Foma 400, ID-11. Strong backlight was no problem with this film. I think it's a great film.

Have film stock gone through the roof in pricing recently (like last year not just last 5 years)? Before I was able to buy a pack of kodak gold 200 from ebay for cheap, now they're like $300 I swear.
I'm a casual and I know film photography has become way more popular. Not just in the 5 years but like 10 years so not unexpected just very noticeable for me a casual.

>>4179758
I'm curious of Kodak's sales numbers after their latest bump in prices. I def haven't gone out of my way to buy any Kodak except for special occasions after the latest raise.

>>4179758
not really, i feel like in the UK film has remained at the same price for the last 2-3 years: gold is about £12, portra is about £16

from an outsider getting interested in film, the cost of developing and scanning seems like the expensive part, not film. It's like $15~20 bucks per roll, has it always been like this which is why no one complains?

>>4179764
ultramax at the store i buy from (a different state in my country) sold out within 2-3 days after they got new stock, about a few weeks ago. gold sold out a day or two after that

>>4179795
yeah thats been constant

>>4179795
also c41 dev is hard to get perfect at home. b/w is easy (and cheaper) but c41 issues WILL get you colour shifts, and the developer will only last like 2-3 weeks once mixed. the working solutions do about 10 rolls but who the fuck is shooting 10 rolls a month?
the best way to develop c41 at home if you have pictures that you care about is one shot developer and that stuff isn't much cheaper than a lab.

The pentax 110 auto is a much smaller slr

Need suggestions for a new m42 body... my TTL got fucked again and I'm not so happy spending more money and time on repairs for a subpar camera

>>4179869
Mamiya 2000 DTL - the best m42 ever made. But as I know it's not compatible with some Takumars.

>>4179869
Fuji ones are pretty good.

I have the original Spotmatic and it's great. Can recommend.I think it excels at very long (>15 minute) exposures as it's purely mechanical. No batteries to run out during exposures. Other than that it's a pretty basic SLR

any tips on whats going on with my pentax zx-m? it shot one roll fine and to completion, but after two rolls, it stops and rewinds mid roll or after only two shots. granted i got it for dumb cheap after an auction and didnt bother to get it cla'd or even just looked at so it might be my own fault

thanks. ive never tried shooting much landscape stuff with b/w, always preferred it in urban areas. though I guess I've found there's less opportunities for different compositions in nature unless you're in a particularly picturesque place.

im pretty sure i slapped in fresh batteries? i mightve mixed em up with some older ones though. ill load it up with fresh batteries and try it again

>>4180126
>>4180102
ok so with fresh batteries and another roll, it did it rewound the roll right off the bat. also, everytime i turn it on now it sounds like its trying to go straight to frame one, even when unloaded

>>4180142
circuit board is probably fried, sorry anon

>>4180146
ah poop. i got the thing for 8 bucks and ive got an me to finish out the rolls so im not super peeved. i might take it to my shop anyway to see what their diagnosis cuz they do it for free. thanks anon

>>4180175
Me and a few others went full mechanical because barring a shutter curtain limping across the frame or some kind of catastrophic failure, they have a "limp home" mode where you will know there is a problem but still be able to get photos on the right settings.

>>4180246
yeah i was originally running just the me but i picked the zx-m up cuz it was a steal and i prefer manual over ap shooting. oh well, moral of the story is dont fall for the 90s plastic slr meme. maybe an lx or a program plus will fall into my hands.

It's a little cleaner and really flat, but run 400 at 200 and fuck with contrast and there isn't much difference. You can pull more from the toes but not much. Slightly different grain patterns depending on the developer too. I'm sticking with foma because I can't tell much difference other than the negatives are a little more prone to curl.

is it worth bidding on cameras from goodwill? ive mostly only bid on lenses and thrifted bodies, which for the most part have been fine. since my zx-m is out of commission though, im in the market for a new camera. picrel is the p30t ive got my eye on, but theres also a bunch of om-1s and om-10s on auction rn that are grabbing my attention.

not him
I have a Pentax P3n, I don't like cameras that you can't override the DX code/change iso on so if that's something you do I wouldn't consider the p3 series but if you only shoot box speed then it's a fine enough camera - nothing special about it and they're pretty cheap I got mine for like $30 off keh

Do you use a UV filter when you shoot film, or are they still just lens protection?

>>4180627
just replying to myself for w/e reason lol
yeah i dont change speeds too often so i most likely will bid for it but the plastic door is kind of a turn off. the rest of the camera is metal though right? skimming results on google didnt tell me outright. ill probably pass on the olympus bodies for compatibilities sake

Only if there's a chance of my lens getting wet like when shooting in rain or at a beach. Easy to wipe water off a flat filter surface.

>>4180647
my understanding is that the P3t is the most plastic of all the P-series cameras so don't drop it

>>4180659
good to know thanks. tbf, you shouldnt drop any camera at all lmao

>>4179535
$5k won't get me a bigger apartment or let me buy a house so it'd be that ilford darkroom tent and then whatever cool compact shit I can fit into it from eBay. I am pretty sure with such limited space I'd have to be trying hard to spend all that money. If you relax the requirements a bit to include film processing stuff that's not necessarily darkroom related then I'd probably get an automatic processor in addition to the darkroom tent and then I'd also maybe buy a nice scanner like a Pakon plus an inkjet photo printer so I can make real prints with the enlarger or do scans and make inkjet prints

>>4179795
it is pretty bad. I need to buy a scanning mask for my scanner and I'll just pay for processing and scan them at home myself so instead of $15 per roll it'll be like $5 to $8.

i always use filters so i dont have to bother with caps

so how much of a problem is mirror slap shake on an SLR when doing long exposures? with a stable and secure tripod is it basically a non issue?

>>4181154
>is it basically a non issue?
the longer the exposure the less the issue. it's a main issue shooting like 1/15 to 2 seconds

>>4178527
Sugar, I have a Kodak Medalist II which i got in pretty rough condition at a highly impressive price.

It works okay but the shutter button is really stiff, and the rangefinder gets stuck frequently.

Do you have any repair guides to share?
mostly curious about the shutter button, where the rangefinder cam is, and how to unscrew the front and rear lens elements for cleaning.

Thanks

21mm. It's become my comfort zone and I rarely shoot any other length these days.

The electronics on my Nikon FE recently went kaput so I'm in the market for a new Nikon camera. I have a pretty solid F mount lens; should I just go buy another FE or try another Nikon?

FE2 or FA would be better I guess.

What was the most common filmstock for shooting animation? I can't seem to find anything even on popular shows. Think late 80's, early 90's cartoons, like Batman: TAS. Vibrant colours, magenta hue on the midtones and blue tint on the highlights.

Fuji, most likely. They had to have had motion picture films because the price on Kodak over there is retarded.

>>4181351
get an FM2. it only needs batteries for the light meter, if you don't mind living without aperture priority. you can always use it manually at all shutter speeds without any batteries.

get it fixed now before the seals totally disintegrate and mess up the rest of the camera. As far as I know seals are easily replaced and the mirror getting stuck issue probably just warrants a simple CLA. not even a CLA just a CL

200, it's a stop faster than 100 with no obvious difference. It's not a matter of liking, it's the only economic option for shooting large format. In that size the lack of contrast becomes really glaring but at least it's very easy to handle in the darkroom because of the thicc and rigid base.

Thanks. Have you ever pushed it? I wanted to try some 400 at 1600 but some people say it's a huge grainy mess. I mind of want it as an option to bulk roll, because it's about 40% cheaper than the BW I currently bulk roll, and sometimes I shoot at night. Maybe I should just get a bulk roll of 200 instead. I've only ever shot foma once, on 6x9, it was 100 I so but I liked it

i lost the bid :(((
but i won a ricoh xr-s; anyone use it before? havent found too much on the internet on it. and whats the general consensus on ricoh? i know modern ricoh/pentax are memed to hell, but what about film ricoh?

>>4182219
You didn't lose anon. It's a cool looking camera but very low end and has limited compatibility. Try getting something like a Z-50p at least.
Or this, no bidding required: https://www.ebay.com/itm/314596155948
Good luck and do your research before commiting to a purchase.

I've shot a lot of both and pushed them 1-2 stops most of the time. They're good budget films. I've moved onto paying an extra $30 to shoot 100ft rolls of Kodak Double-X instead. Big difference in quality.

i got myself some rz67 polaroid backs that ended up having some shots left in them, probably around 10 total. some fp100c and fp100b. theyve been stored at room temp in a pelican case for at least 4 years. beyond that i dont know anything else about them. any tips on getting the best exposures i can out of them?

i want an ultrawide lens for my pentax, what would people recommend?

Tokina 17mm RMC. I had the FD mount version and it's a very underrated lens.

Why is that when I scan some film the sky always comes out as this dull grainy mess? Am i supposed to turn the sharpness down after scanning?

This was from a roll of Kodak gold 400

i know film has grain, but this is like bad dirty grain. the scan looks terrible. the 4x6 print looked fine

That's what it looks like you dolt. If you want grainless skies then shoot E-6 on medium format, or just go digishit.

I always figured they smooth the grain out in the printing process

Budget, high iso, expired
Try another film stock with low iso, for example portra 160, ektar or some slide film.

Gold 400 aka ultramax tends to have blue skies go quite grainy. If you're underexposing it'll be worst. Finally, you're using a flatbed which always makes 35mm film look like shit. A lot of that grain is actually digital noise (zoom in, it'll be rainbow coloured).
