Pentax ME Super, Ilford SFX200 film, SMC Pentax "K" 15mm f/3.5 lens.

I've had 5 rolls of SFX200 sitting around all summer and haven't shot a roll yet. This has given me some inspiration to finally work with it.

I quite like it. Shoots like regular film with no filtration but give it a dark red filter and its IR film like. I got some nice shots in NYC last October with it. I don't use it that much as it is a bit pricey...

Another shot of the 1957 Ford Fairlane. The other picture was from the street. The owner came out, we talked and I was able to get a closer shot.

Crown Graphic, Symmar 150mm, HP5+, D-23 (1:1)

My first contribution to this wonderful thread is the result of some FP4+ on a Pentax K2 with K55/1.8 and K28/3.5. Developed on Rodinal 1+50 and DSLR scanned.

Congrats! Those are some nice night scenes

There are some out of gamut highlights and blacks in that first one but of course it's nighttime. I most often will favor exposure for either the highlights or shadows in situations like that so I only have one end out of recordable range of the film instead of having both.

Really nice shots there. What were your shutter speeds like for those?

rodaballo · 10-08-2019, 02:04 AM - **9 Likes**

Many thanks for the positive reception! Shots were made between 3-6 seconds. I metered basically at mid-shadows with the K2 meter and then took FP4+ reciprocity index into account. A Benro tripod and a remote shutter was used. I will post another one from the same set.
