I haven't shot 35mm film in many years . Frankly 35mm film in the digital age isn't worth the effort. I do put a few rolls through the 6x7 every year though.

I'm teaching a photography class to middle schoolers this month. Last week, we were talking about the anatomy of a camera... I pulled out a K-1000 to demonstrate a few things, and asked: has anyone ever used a film camera? I got lots of blank looks, but then a hand went up, My Grandma has one!! So, there you go.

RE: Anybody still shooting film?
Yep, I've basically gone back to film for family stuff, as my wife complains that she never gets to see any prints from digital - mainly because my work involves being on the computer all day, and so I seldom feel like spending time on it again processing images. In addition, I have a small collection of film cameras, 35mm and 6x6, SLR's, a rangefinder and a TLR, all of which work well and deserve to be taken out and exercised now and again. It's particularly good when I realise again how smooth and pleasant to work with are the two Pentax's at each end of my collection, an SV and an MZ-S.

Allingwebstertwenty...@gmail.com wrote: I'm sorry, by their ages past naming convention, Ektar should by rights be a slide film. I didn't realize it was a reversal film. Ekta wasn't a naming convention reserved just for transparency film such as Ektachrome. Other products used the Ekta prefix, among them Ektacolor, Ektapress, Ektaprint, Ektaflex, as well as the Ektar colour negative film already mentioned. BTW, I hate to play the Grammar Nazi, but slide films and reversal films aren't opposites, they are one and the same. You must have meant negative when you wrote reversal. Simply explained, practically all emulsions are natively negative. Slide films have a reversal step during processing. Hence, slide film is called reversal film. There are (were) a very small number of natively positive products. Ilfochrome (formerly Cibachrome) is the one which most people will know. It is a dye destruction process, where the exposing light breaks down Azo dyes and renders them unable to be developed, leaving colour density only in unexposed areas. Dyeline paper (the newer alternative to blueprint paper) was a simpler type of the dye destruction where the dye in the white areas was destroyed by UV exposure while the remaining unexposed azo dyes were developed by ammonia vapour, to become the black lines of architectural drawings. Lastly there was a rarer process called autopositive or auto reversal. These materials had been exposed to the point of reversal, a point of gross overexposure where any further exposure actually reduced the latent image density, i.e. more light = less density. This material was definitely a lab material, not a general photographic film. It had very poor tonal characteristic but was useful in graphic arts processes. regards, Anthony -- Don't lose heart!

The cost of film is horrendous, and, Kodak keeps cutting their own throats. Kodachrome made them unique and bam, they discontinued it. I do like the Ektar and had quite a fling with it in 2010 and some in 2011. I expect Kodak will vaporize soon. I would liken Kodak's struggles more to amputating successive limbs trying to save the patient from gangrene. I understand why they ended up discontinuing Kodachrome. It was not economically competitive. Everybody *LOVED* Kodachrome, but they shot Ektachrome Fujichrome because it was just as good and cost less. Fuji Reala was my all 'round fave though. Can't find it in 35mm at BH or Adorama anymore. You would think they would serve the boutique market as I see several folks on Flickr posting film stuff.

Re: Anybody still shooting film?
Ofcause, I do. But, I would buy a digital, high resolution camera if I could - Perhaps a Pentax 645 or even better - a Phase One (costs about 50.000 USD here) if I could. Untill then I shoot high resolution images with my Pentax 67/67II. It's very good (when ever I can find a decent lab for scanning high end scans) and MUCH more affordable than a digital MF camera.

JC´s words... I have had my Pentax DSLR for 5 years now and only shot one roll of film since buying it. I am wondering if anyone is still using 35mm film regularly? - J.C.O'Connell hifisapi at gate.net - I still use it, not often. I do use it more often than I scan it - there are some 10 rolls waiting my attention rigth now. Situation #1 - load some roll into my amphibious 35mm (Nikon AW35, almost done but still swimproof and clicking). Situation #2 - load some roll into my disposable 35mm (EOS 500n, bonded baseplate, bent strap holders, scratched and gouged elsewhere). Situation #3 - feel like showing off and load the Mx (twice a year or so, and no - the Mx is rather nice). May stop using soon, since my Fuji supply is almost done and Kodak prices here and now are abbusive. Film of choice is any 200/ 400 ISO color negative under $7, since E-6 development is something from the distant past. -- luiz felipe luiz.felipe at luizfelipe.fot.br -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: Anybody still shooting film?
Every couple of months I run some 120 BW, (respooled onto 620 spools) through the Kodak Medalist II. The negatives are gorgeous, the subject matter no so much. A friend gave me a few rolls of expired and soon to be expired 35mm a couple of months ago. I loaded up a MX, a LX and the Spotmatic F, and I don't think I shot a single frame. On the plus side, all three of those cameras feel great in the hand.

Re: Anybody still shooting film?
Missed the original post... I'm still shooting it from time to time, though I have resolved to stop buying it. This afternoon I finished off a roll of Classic Pan 200 that has been sitting in a holga for several months. These days it is mostly 120 film or the occasional 35mm BW roll. I bought 20 rolls of 120 Porta 160 when Kodak went bust, and that will probably be the last color 120 I get. Several expired rolls of 35mm color print film in the freezer - some nice ones including an Agfa Ultra 50 and a Royal Gold 200. But I don't know when I'll use those. I gave my slide film away years ago but left one roll of Velvia 50 in the fridge that needs to be used someday... On 3/10/2012 11:56 AM, luiz felipe wrote: JC´s words...

Not regularly. I have a few rolls of film still in the freezer (nothing special - just basic 35 mm print film) and I put a roll through the LX a few months ago just because I thought I should (I've only had that camera for a year or so). I really can't see me using film at all in the future, other than trying out an old camera that I might come across. -- Cheers Brian ++ Brian Walters Western Sydney Australia http://lyons-ryan.org/southernlight/ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
Re: Anybody still shooting film?
Hi PDML Gang, I haven't shot much film since getting a K20D in 2009 and then a K5 in December 2011. The cost of film is horrendous, and, Kodak keeps cutting their own throats. Kodachrome made them unique and bam, they discontinued it. I do like the Ektar and had quite a fling with it in 2010 and some in 2011. I expect Kodak will vaporize soon. Fuji Reala was my all 'round fave though. Can't find it in 35mm at BH or Adorama anymore. You would think they would serve the boutique market as I see several folks on Flickr posting film stuff. Film was more fun and best overall and I didn't have to mess with it for hours. I get tired of sitting at a computer. I do miss the days of film where I could fire and forget. If you had the right film, glass and exposure, all you needed was a competent lab to complete the magic. Technology has pushed me into digital, and, it is quite good. I am also spending less money per year than I was shooting film. Love the K5. Love the dedicated APS lenses like the SDM 16-50 f2.8 and the SDM 50-135 f2.8. Just got a DA 35 Limited.

I didn't realize it was a reversal film. Ekta wasn't a naming convention reserved just for transparency film such as Ektachrome. Other products used the Ekta prefix, among them Ektacolor, Ektapress, Ektaprint, Ektaflex, as well as the Ektar colour negative film already mentioned. BTW, I hate to play the Grammar Nazi, but slide films and reversal films aren't opposites, they are one and the same. You must have meant negative when you wrote reversal. Simply explained, practically all emulsions are natively negative. Slide films have a reversal step during processing. Hence, slide film is called reversal film. There are (were) a very small number of natively positive products. Ilfochrome (formerly Cibachrome) is the one which most people will know. It is a dye destruction process, where the exposing light breaks down Azo dyes and renders them unable to be developed, leaving colour density only in unexposed areas. Dyeline paper (the newer alternative to blueprint paper) was a simpler type of the dye destruction where the dye in the white areas was destroyed by UV exposure while the remaining unexposed azo dyes were developed by ammonia vapour, to become the black lines of architectural drawings. Lastly there was a rarer process called autopositive or auto reversal. These materials had been exposed to the point of reversal, a point of gross overexposure where any further exposure actually reduced the latent image density, i.e. more light = less density. This material was definitely a lab material, not a general photographic film. It had very poor tonal characteristic but was useful in graphic arts processes. regards, Anthony -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
