Show ... your pics with really slooooow film!

I love slow film - for years I thought the point of rangefinders and fast lenses was so you could use the slowest possible film in any circumstance. It was quite a moment when I realised that so many used 400asa as a routine film and f8 as a normal aperture!

Here's a recent PanF+ shot

Hi Rob,

I've got some cms20 and plan to use Rodinal - how long are you developing for with 1+200?

Thanks,

Mark
 
The first time I used really slow film was during my recent trip to Petra. This is ADOX CMS 20 @ 12.5. I will definitely use this film again.

How about this for slow - Efke IR820; effectivelyISO 1.5 (with R72 infrared filter)!

Camera was a Kodak Duaflex III, tripod mounted of course!
 
Wow, very impressive shots. I've got a roll of Velvia 50 on ice that I've been afraid to shoot. Of course, until now all I've had is an slr. What's the key to getting such great results with film this slow?
 
WOW ! It doesn't get any better than that !
How do you scan your negatives ?

Thanks!

I use an Epson Perfection 4490 PHOTO.

I scan them with 16 bit grey tones, 2400 dpi and standard settings.

The scanner can handle 135 film both negatives (2x6 each) and slides (4 each) and also medium format up to 6x9.
 
The first three are with my Hassy and Efke 25 "pushed" to 50. Why? Because I had my light meter set for reflective, but used it in incident fashion, when I took my first couple shots of the day. Later I noticed the problem, and decided to just continue to underexpose. Developed in Diafine. And came out fine.
