1st roll through new Bessa R...

[fishtek]

Bought a 5-pack of Fuji "super HQ" at the drugstore, drove up to the "cabin in the woods" to do some leaf maintenance, and took the new Bessa R. Here's one of the shots I scanned...

Seems to be a bit of "noise" when I enlarge the image...maybe the scanning process...maybe the film?

Regards!
Don

Doesn't look too bad. What are you scanning with?

Hi, David!

Scanning with a Canon 4200F. I'm thinking I'll start browsing through various films and see how each scans. Empirical observation often teaches more than opinion, 'specially as everyone's tastes are different...

Regards!

Hi, Mark!

Ni Hao!

Yup...that was me. If you'd had that lens available when we first talked, you woulda had me. I'm pretty stoked with the camera, and am now scouting around for lenses, a piece at a time. Got a deal in the works for a 75, but won't know for a few days.

Regards!
Don

Hi Don haha =)
nice nice
Yeah Upgrading is one step at a time.
I could have sold the R and SkOPAR 35 but that would mean i have to spend alot more to upgrade both body and lens.

R was sold.. and now I am releasing the CV Skopar 35 f2.5 black.
Bought another lens in replace of it =)

Good scan. It can be better to manipulate a bit the magenta in software after scan

Don
are the fall colours up where you are PEAK (yellow, red , golden)or Past PEAK (eg brown and leaves falling ) ??

 

[fishtek]

Past peak, Mark! That photo is up near Milford, PA. The reason I was up there was "Leaf Management"...lots and lots of oak, hickory, beech, and other...we get a LOT of leaves to move...
