For sure, my scanning s/w came with a Kodachrome profile and I have my best results scanning those old slides.

Thank you, revdocjim. I'm not satisfied with my scans either. I think #2 is the best one here.
I have the CanoScan 9000F, but would like a better scanner. The optimum would of course be a proper darkroom. I have, in fact, acquired an fine enlarger capable of handling 120 film and even 4x5" negatives - but I haven’t set up a proper darkroom, and many further investments would be necessary to make colour enlargements, e.g. a colour analyzer.

Nice shots. (..and HEY! Im not the only photographer in the Copenhagen area shooting 6X7 — we should meet)
It´s inspiring to see that you develop colorfilm yourself. (BTW: Is it the development or the scanning which produces the ‘spotty‘ texture seen on them?)
I have my film developed in a lab (Nannasgade) from the shop Photografica for 50kr a piece (ca.8US). But the idea to have a darkroom and develop (my film and skills) myself is on my mind too.
I have the Epson V750 which delivers decent scans. Or I rent the Imacon at Fotografisk Center (Carlsberg).
I went to Island this summer (with a trunkload of 6X7s and more) and am having the rolls developed soon. Then all the scanning..and then I hope to be able to show you guys a pic or two. Regards

Just a test roll though my new (to me) 67ii - seems fine, and nice to get 10 shots out of a roll as opposed to the 9 of my old 67!

Congratulations with the 67II. Such a great camera. a favorite lens too. Nailed that cats eye for sure. Nice metering, what mode?

No prism yet, so done off the screen! Guessed at 1/30th wide-open (on a tripod)...

..good guesswork! (there is a meter for sale at about 300EURO right now on ebay, but I don´t know that you need it?)

First medium format and first time developing. Shot through my Mamiya RB67 with C 90mm F3.8 lens on Delta 100, developed using Xtol at 1:1

A shot of a slipway going into the water at Qidi Vidi in St. John's. I've posted several different pictures of it so far, I just have a feeling there's a fantastic photograph in it, I just have to figure it out.

This is approximately attempt 12 of my third visit.

Bronica GS-1, 65mm PG, Portra 400.

Some shots of our last trip in Turkey. Wonderful landscapes and impressive historical sites...

Nice shots, Ristretto.

Some sea stack shots this weekend at Cannon Beach, OR, with a Pentax 67.

Tuco, that last shot is epic! Wonderful deep tones. May I ask how long did you develop the film if you shot it at EI12?

Thanks!

Why thanks. I cut the film's normal development time by 1/2. The procedure is highly developer dependent, however.

Thanks for the information. I have just acquired a 50mm wideangle for my 6x7 Bronica and I hope I will get some time to go out in the field and test this thing. I have also bought Pyrocat HD developer and I´m very eager to try it out.

You're getting some really great colours from that Superia. I've never used it but i know it's recently been discontinued. Maybe I should grab a box while it's still there, but i don't have much call for ISO 400 film in sunny Spain...
