my uncle gave a wonderful gift a few months ago. fuji gsw390III. its a medium format rangefinder. ran a few rolls through it with nice results but i wasnt blown away. however i recently shot a roll of only portraits with it. i can safely say this camera is now designated for portraits only. shocked at the sharpness and contrast.

i actually live in busan now. there is local shop here that does film quite cheap (even black and white or medium format are very reasonable). i didnt have a film camera when i lived in seoul, although i have sent my film from busan to seoul before and it was very pricey. that place was called photopia.

i few shots from a roll or two shot through a borrowed yashica TLR. while i thought the TLR was fun to use (also quite challenging), i am not too pleased with the results. my first medium format experience. could just be that the yashica has a poor quality lens, as opposed to a rolleiflex. or maybe the scans from the lab are really low resolution. still got a few funs snaps.

hey guys so ive been shooting mostly film for the last year now. pretty much dont touch my dslr unless im on vacation and i want to be 100% that i get a few keepers. i usually dont make prints. i just get my film developed and scanned by the local photo shop. i guess they do a good job but i never really looked at the file size or resolution of the scans too much. i went to get some medium format prints made today (i wanted them to be nice big prints) but the guy told me (i live in korea and my korean is not too great) that the file size was too small to make a big print. he told me to make an 8x10 the file size should be at least 2000kb. the scans i have been getting are nowhere near that size. what can i do???
i plan on buying a scanner when i finally make it home. but for now do i have to suffer from low quality prints? could i just ask the print shop to re-scan the negatives at a higher resolution? is there anyway to boost the file size without ruining the image after it has already been scanned??? i didnt even know i needed to think about this stuff before! someone please give me some advice!
thanks!

wombat i dont know where songbo is... that picture is from Busan, South Korea. thanks for the help guys. its seems that most folks feel that strange effect is due to a development error. i dont develop my own film. these were however developed in a pro lab (quite expensive i might add!) i plan to develop my own photos when i return home. i just cant justify buying the chemicals when i know i will relocate sooner rather than later.

so my friend let me borrow her dad yashica 635 tlr (rolleiflex copy) and i took a few rolls. two of them came out with nice results (kodak t-max 400 and acros 100) but the ilford hp5 plus 400 has these strange vertical "splotches". any ideas what it might be? the film was not expired. bad scan???

i dont really know about the scanning. i took it to my local place in korea. (i dont speak korean) they usually do a fine job. never had any problems before. i guess i will save the negatives and if i ever get around to buying a scanner i will try them again? thanks!

here are some examples of my messed up shots. i tried to compare some of the negatives. ***i have no idea how to "read" a negative*** the negatives look somewhat similar. perhaps a bit different from another roll. i guess its worth noting that some of the exposures were worse that others. most of them if i just tuned the contrast and saturation down, came to bit of a more nuetral tone. ideas???

hey guys i had a question about expired film. what are some of the results of using expired film. i just took a vacation and got my film back. one of the rolls has a SERIOUS blue tint to it. the skys are completely saturated and the contrast might be pretty messed up too. i honestly dont even know if the film was expired or not. or i heard the same results can also occur if the lab used auto color correction when the scanned the negatives. any ideas? i will put up an example or two later. thanks.

here are another few from a different lomography film. this one is an "extended range" redscale the recommends metering anywhere from 50-200iso. i prefer the ones shot at lower iso. but the crazy red saturation is also pretty cool. enjoy? (if at all possible)

i honestly have no idea about the overexposure. this was my first time using any film with an iso below 200. i though 64iso meant i could shoot in direct sunlight easily. but also tungsten film is a bit different than normal color film. so my answer... i dont know. haha.

here are a few shots from my first roll of Lomography x-tungsten 64iso. i tried shooting with this metered at 64-100 and still the results were slightly overexposed. i will shoot the next roll at 200 if im in direct sunlight. also i boosted the saturation a bit because i like the look of it. it gives the pictures the blueish tones i was expecting to get without any post processing. anyway interesting film for sure.

i went a little on the adventurous side and bought two 3-packs of "alternative film" from lomography. some x-tungsten 64, and XR (extended range) redscale 50-200. anyone have any experience shooting with these types of film? seems like both have their subdued characteristics when shot at low ISO but when slighty underexposed they give some pretty extreme colors. thoughts? advice? ill be sure to post some pictures if my results turn out alright.
