Re: Thoughts About Making Good BW Negatives, and a challenge.
FWIW After I have processed and dried my film, I lay the negative/strips on top of a fixed sheet of paper. If the highlights are blocked, the negative was over exposed or over developed. if the shadow detail is missing, it was under exposed. From those I feel will print, I go for it. Sometimes an infirior negative will be found where the subject matter is worth having a go at. At that point, I may (only if I have hours) try and print it. I can't tell you the number of times I have wasted paper, time and chemistry trying to make something out of nothing. When shooting BW, I take two bodies or two backs for my VHR and mark them low and normal contrast. I develope accordingly. Earlier, there was a topic about JOBO processing of BW film. Well, lazyness prevails for those who are in a hurry. I was one of those, and I am back to inversion. You have to tend the processor for as long as you must tend a tank. The negative quality difference is amasing especially with 35. I use my JOBO for colour prints and E6 only. Regards, Bob Rapp Bob - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.

Re: Stan H Tinkers In Toronto
The camera is fine. The 35mm lens is fine. The filter sacrificed itself, bending its edge to absorb the shock. Which was no big deal as the camera only fell from about 12 inches off the floor. So far, thankfully, I have been spared the high adventure of having a camera fall from my hand or shoulder or tripod.

Re: Thoughts About Making Good BW Negatives, and a challenge.
Bill, This is a great idea! I would appreciate an opportunity to participate in such an interesting experiment. Regards, Bob --- William Robb [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: - Original Message - From: Shel Belinkoff Subject: Thoughts About Making Good BW Negatives Ansel Adams was reported to have said The negative is the score and the print is the performance. Of course, he meant that without a good negative you will, at best, struggle to make a fine print. It is only when all the needed information is contained in the negative - when all the tones are recorded, so to speak - that an excellent print can be created. Rod Dresser, writing in the current issue of Camera Arts magazine, suggests that those new to BW darkroom work should learn what a good negative is. He suggests studying the good negatives of an experienced printer, looking at the quality and qualities of the recorded image. When I read that I wondered how many of the new BW printers we have here now - and there seems to be a few who are just jumping or or rekindling their darkroom interests - have had a chance to look at such negatives, and compare them to their own, or to one another. Rod Dresser's suggestion is an excellent one, and I just wanted to pass it along for anyone who is interested, especially those new to the darkroom. A nice suggestion, but perhaps not a particularly practical one. One of the qualities of a negative, to me, is ease of printing. If I can pull a good print out without a lot of effort, I have done my job in the field. The thing is, what is easy for me, may be very difficult for someone else, and as a consequence, what I consider an easy negative to print, may well be someone elses nightmare. What I did find very instructive when I was starting out, was to go shooting with my mentor, and then compare our prints after we had printed them in our separate darkrooms. Better still, was when I was able to print with Roy in the darkroom, making suggestions, and telling me what his thought process was. I was never really able to tell much from looking at a negative as to how the final print was going to look. I could look, and see that I had ample shadow detail, and that the highlights weren't blown out, but this didn't necessarily translate to a good print. I have seen some wonderful prints from negatives that made me cringe when I saw them, and some coyote ugly prints from what I thought would be wonderful negatives, due to the qualities that the printer was able (or unable) to bring out. Now, the challenge part. Not so much a challenge, perhaps, as seeing how other people do things. I have often thought that it would be nice to see how other people would perform a score, so to speak.

I think this challenge sounds like a pretty cool deal.

One of the labs I use has, more times than I'd really want to admit, given me really impressive prints when I've given them some pretty awfully mis-exposed negatives to work with (mostly HIE).

Re: ZX-L and Pentax Metering
If one brings his or her right thumb up along side the viewfinder of the ZX-5n while shooting it helps one see the exposure info much more clearly. The 5n is a great camera, I would recommend it without hesitation. DG At 04:43 PM 5/6/02 -0600, you wrote: Nitin is right. I forgot that the 5n also has center-weighted and spot metering. I'm very anxious to see a 5n replacement. As it is, I can't recommend the camera (as I've noted here several times). In bright sunlight (most of my shooting) one can't see the exposure information in the viewfinder, and it's not duplicated on the external lcd. The 5n replacement will presumably fix this problem, and probably add some other goodies, like pentax functions. I'm looking forward to seeing it. I hope they put aperture priority on the body.

Re: Statue of Liberty Recommendations
Newark is too far inland, and too far North. Probably around Bayone. The best thing to do is get a map and draw a line through the Statue of Liberty and extending from an accesable point in NJ to Manhattan. A few things to keep in mind: - The statue faces into the bay (southeast) so you will have to be of it south to get a side view. - Best light will be very early morning so the stature is front lit with the skyscrapers side lit with warm light. - You will be miles from Manhattan and pretty far from the statue so you will need a clear, dry (low humidity) day, a long lens and a solid tripod. For a simpler, postcard shot, take a Circle Line cruise ship around Manhattan. A nice sunny day, some white puffy clouds, 100mm lens, fine grained film and you've got it made.

Re: The PDML Print Challenge.
Yes, I am ... but I'd dearly like to try printing a larger neg, too. You can send me two negs if you'd like.

Re: leaf shutter for 35mm? (was RE: how good)
- Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: leaf shutter for 35mm? (was RE: how good) The Mamiya RB67 system, which is a big SLR, has a dark black flap that sits behind the mirror and swings up just after the mirror has lifted, and after the leaf shutter has closed immediately before exposure-time. Its well-sealed enough that a separate focal plane shutter is not necessary to prevent fogging. My old Contaflex worked much the same way. The mirror was also the light baffle.
