Pentax K-3 III Monochrome Review: Now live!

Nesster · 01-15-2010, 02:45 PM - **9 Likes**

To liven things up a bit, and to encourage us using our wonderful cameras more... I figure we should start a 'club', just post your shots using one of the Pentax Medium Format cameras, show off your lenses, films, pets, significant others, back yards

etc.

I'm sure there are some awesome shots out there, as well as plain ordinary ones (but lovingly and exactly rendered by the Pentax)...

To get started, here from the first roll through my P645, 75mm lens. Unfortunately I haven't yet managed to get past cat photos with this cam. Maybe I'll get daughter to shoot with it...

Great idea Jussi!
Tomorrow, I will get back my first develloped slide films made with my 'new' 6x7. I can hardly wait.
And then I have to scan them, I suppose, but I don't have a (dedicated) scanner. But I will post some of them here anyhow....!

Yes, I truly hope us 120 Pentaxians are actually using our gear... So folks, show your pics! Make the 35mm folks envy our Big Rigs.

Cute kitty. I have a theory why animals are so cute when they are young. It's a survival strategy for when they get domesticated by humans. When the kids want a new dog or cat, they don't pick out the ugly ones, lol.

rparmar · 01-16-2010, 11:20 AM

That is one darned cute cat. And some very nice shots!

As soon as I get a scanner I'll have something to contribute. The reults from the local photo store have been lousy.

**Rense** · 01-16-2010, 12:07 PM

Jussi, you intended this thread for 645 photos. Is it okay to post 6x7 photos here, or do you think it's better to start a new thread for those...?
If you want 6x7's here too, probably the thread title should be changed.....

....

the 6x7 really deserves it's own thread, but as the MF crowd seems to be few and far between with the pictures (yeah, we're for quality not quanitity

)... I'll change it.

HP5 and +1 filter. The +1 filter sucks resolution right out. I now have extension tubes.

Oohh, AAhhh!

that's some great photography. Looks like the 55 is a real gem too. That's such an excellent tractor shot.

Jussi, I doesn't matter to me if I - or anybody else - has to start a second thread for the 6x7 shots. So please, feel free to abandon 6x7's! I feel that is what you prefer!

Nesster · 01-17-2010, 06:18 PM

Looks like the name of the thread is locked or I'd change it... any Medium Format Pentax images more than welcome of course

Sorry for the pet theme. She's my rabbitt hunter. A really good one too!

Okay, as long as we are on an animal kick, here is my 2¢ worth.

Pentax 67, SMC 105mm ƒ2.4, Kodak 125PX, PMK Pyro developer

And here are some fish somewhere in that water

Pentax 67, SMC 105mm ƒ2.4, Fuji 100 Acros, ND2.7 (9-stop) filter, PMK Pyro, 60 sec exposure

Excellent doggies, the one with the 165mm is especially a fave with me... and Tuco, wow! 60 sec exposure, that's the kind of photography I want to do someday.

Here's nothing great, except that I handheld very slow shutter speeds with the 645 and 150/3.5, trying out an expired roll of Agfa APX 400 and developing in Fomadon Excel, an Xtol clone...

rparmar · 01-18-2010, 02:10 PM

Phenomenal shots Tuco.
