:cool: Lets see those ''film'' shots

jgredline · 03-08-2009, 03:03 PM

Hi folks...Since our film community is small here, I thought it would be a great idea to have a thread on images that show the beauty of film...Does it have to be a Pentax? ''No'', lets make it about photography...I and others, I am sure, would like to see what different films put out, so film type would be a help if you know. Now lets see those film shots.

Canon AE-1 with 200 provia film.

Great idea - gives me an excuse to show pics from the mid 80s, with ASA400 film I've long forgotten, the Oly OM2s and the Tamron 35-80 SP... Some of the best pictures I've ever taken were from that time.

Most of these are scans of prints...

ahh the Film days, I still shoot film...but nowhere near as much as I used to.

some images from various cameras, Bronica, Hasselblad and of course Pentax 67 and 645...and an Ebony 6X17.

Here's some oldies. Not so sure if they are goodies, though.

The 70's and early 80's were pretty much a self-medicated haze for me.
I seldom forgot the camera but sometimes forgot to put film in it!

When the film counter goes past 36 then 37 then 38 .... damn! .... is there any #!@*'ing film in this camera? Arrrrggghhh! Not Again!

Anyways, on the rare occasions I did remember camera, film and light meter I took some pictures.

Kodak slide film
Praktica L (1976?)

Forgotten film
Pentax ME Super (I think)
Self portrait one Halloween night long, long ago. (late 70's)

Forgotten Film
Pentax ME Super

Daughter swinging (20 years ago)

Son and Daughter playing (again, 20 years ago)

Forgotten slide film
Forgotten Camera
Foggy memory
Foggy morning (34 years ago)

Jim- those slides are awesome! As nice as Velvia can be, I do love Kodachrome...

The following are shot with Fuji PRO160S in a Pentax ES-II:

The above two with an SMC Takumar 105/2.8, the next one is w/Tele Takumar 200/5.6 preset:

160S is pretty cool film, I have a whole load of it slightly expired in 120 size. I do have some trouble getting the colors right when scanning it myself.

Here it is home scanned, used in a Ricoh Diacord:
