[pinhole-discussion] Zero Image 2000 6x6 - which way does the back fit in?

2001-10-29 Thread TSHACK
I've just shot my first roll in my Zero 2000 6x6 camera. I screwed up by thinking the takeup reel goes on the right (as you look from the back), just like most other cameras. I ended up shooting a roll that was wound onto the takeup reel with the film on the outside and the paper on the inside.

Try 85B. TO get accurate colors you will also need to use color correction filters, like the ones you print through. I found the ones I got with just the 85B were kind of neat though I only did a few shots at the end of the class because we had a few sheets of paper left over... have fun...it's

Thanks for the replies re P30. I had looked in the on-line catalogues but not in the hard copy. Calumet says there's no extra shipping charge as long it is shipped by ground. Which 85 filter is best? And is the paper ca ISO 6, like BW? I've made a camera which will yield a close to 180 degree

A zone plate focusses like a lens so you should adjust the focus for objects at different distances. On the other hand, they tend to have large f numbers (like f/32) so they have large depth of field. They are also hard to focus because they are so dim. I congratulate you
