i scan and dev at my house too. but my scanner is the cap ayam 1. Canoscan 4400f. so the picture quality is not really that good.

got a hassy le bro...mamiya oso can...hehehe

to get good picture consistently with a lubitel/mamiya/ hassy, u'll need to buy a light meter. a simple 1 at least! get the analogue 1 which cost 400 bucks will do.

apart from that i choose to use camera with metering so that i dun need the hassle...heehhee

nope. lomo is just a style of processing.

film has much more than just lomo.

FILM is very addictive in everyway...i mostly shoot street phog with film coz digital still cant emulate b&w fully like how film does.

but why were you using expired films? (a lomo trend)

and your black and white photos, seriously aren't that good tonality speaking.
i used to teach black and white processing and printing and to be honest with you, it's a fail student's work.
hope you don't take it in heart.

i am thrill that there are people who have the commitment of self processing the films and stuffs but i guess maybe you do not have people to guide you to do it the right way... or you prefer it that day: water stains, dust, low contrast, etc...

that is why i am asking.
again, i am not looking for a war

but why were you using expired films? (a lomo trend)

and your black and white photos, seriously aren't that good tonality speaking.
i used to teach black and white processing and printing and to be honest with you, it's a fail student's work.
hope you don't take it in heart.

i am thrill that there are people who have the commitment of self processing the films and stuffs but i guess maybe you do not have people to guide you to do it the right way... or you prefer it that day: water stains, dust, low contrast, etc...

that is why i am asking.
again, i am not looking for a war
*
i am so glad that u point out my weakness actually. thanks a million. i really need feed back other than the usual "good work" comment.

my b&w processing is not a proper process. i didnt regulate the temperature. i just hantam wat ever temp it is in.

i hope u can give me a guide. i learnt my b&w processing in a course i took in my university. it is taught my a technician only...

cheers!

i only process BW film bro.
future planning develop slides film.

my developer - either i used ilford ID 11 or DDX. u can test both of it . to find which checmical suits you.
i used both. Since they have different kind of feel in the way of sharpness and graining.
i dont use stop bath .. since i got fixer. Fixer already enough to stop the chemical to develop.
You need to get right temperature for your developer before u can start to develop ur film. i mostly standby 1 pack of ice for this purpose.
since Malaysia room temperature is kinda high. smile.gif
then after my film fully develop i scan it and touch it up in PS.
nanti senang2 kite develop sama 2 ok !

135, 120 and 220 can .. 4 x 5 nope !
my reel can only fit 2 135 and 1 120.
and we shoot a lot of BW 120 film. makan masa gak nak develop.
i dont take money for doing this. since i share it with my frens. He got a studio and a FILM Scanner. and i own a analogue darkroom.
so we share things. i develop his film and he scan my film. i've oso got enlarger, i got it from ASFON few years ago.
so for now i dont take any customer since i still have load of BW film to develop.
tp klu nak join nanti boleh.

wah guys,
why wanna TT with me? hahahaa
i did a talk for photomalaysia members' night last week and i was showing them my photos.

by the way, all my works are photographed in films. and it has been like 10 years since i last do my own black and white. however, i was still teaching black and white in a uni until 4 years ago when they decided to go digital.

i dont mind giving some tips on how to process films. hahahaa it took me like 5 years to prefect my skill in using HP5 (was only using this film last time) processed in LC-29 or ID-11 to get the maximum tonal range.

eh, i suggest to use stop bath as it will prolong your fixer's strength. if you can't afford it, can use those clear vinegar. if you can't stand the smell, get those without smell.

do you guys use wetting agent? it's important to use it. don't get the ilford one as it's crap. get the kodak one

Actually I have to tell you guise that even though Hasselblad H series is digital, but it really behaves like a film camera.

1 AF point only. People are often telling people how many AF a DSLR have but this, only has 1.

ISO maximum 400 where >200 is noisy enough already. And lastly? Almost-Accurate colour control where you just snap and upload your picture. Isn't this Film enough? lol Last time film camera also behave the same way, just doesn't have digital control.

now that Hassy had already release a Digital back for their V series. So people who want to convert also can =D

Hassy is amazing. Its Hasselblad for a reason.

I am now wondering whether the F3 still can be used or not LOL.

bit tough on that. as cross processing will somewhat contaminate the c41 chems.
your best bet would be in KL.


Added on December 21, 2010, 11:44 amif anybody is interested, i do teach BW developing/printing/archiving. the whole works, in a proper darkroom.

pm if interested. thanks.

All films need to be developed. Just that BW films you can do it at home with minimal costs, color need more costs for home developing.

A film scanner isnt that expensive.
A decent Canoscan 8800FF cost around 700-800 RM. Good for web viewing and small prints.
The next step up are the Epson V700, but that will cost around RM 1800-2000. But of course the scans are significantly better.
After that are the dedicated film scanners.

Better or not is subjective :-)
I print mine in the darkroom so I'm biased. hehe.

Price wise, of course digital is cheaper.

You can get it in any lab then, just ask for a border.

They are both different mediums and will give you a difference experience in using them. That's purely a personal preference. The film will give you something quite unique, something digital conversions cannot emulate, but a good conversion can give you something close to that.

Real B&W films are more expensive because they contain silver. The emulsion is made out of silver halides, and prices of silver are increasing now. Color films are made out of layers of dye, so it is cheaper. But not that much cheaper if you see some types of color films.

First one was taken with Velvia 100 (argh, so hard to scan slides!) and the second one is with a Reala 100.


I should start using that camera again, haven't used it in months!

that's cold coffee brewing technique. It's super slow (overnight even), but every coffee lover should try at least once. The coffee that comes out is mighty concentrated, without the caffeine. Basically, the better the beans, the better the taste.

Some say this is the only way to try kopi luak. i've tried it, super expensive, but seriously it's out of this world

Uhm, no idea where people get this idea from. smile.gif

All films need to be developed, that's why they are called films. If you dont develop, there is no image to see on the negatives.

Scanning or printing comes after the developing.

I think he meant as develop and scan, skip the prints. I do that occasionally, but mostly to see what I want to print in the darkroom and choose a few to work on.

Here are a list of shops you can visit to buy some B&W films.

A decent flat bed scanner is the Canon 8800F. They should cost about RM 700-800 in Lowyat. Decent quality for small print, web presentations but not so good for large prints.
Next level up is the Epson V600 or V700. Very good quality even for large prints. But price is RM18XX.
After that are dedicated film scanners, like Nikon Coolscans, etc. RM 3XXX and above.

Drum scanners? They work by photomultiplier tubes rather than the CCD/CIS the usual scanners have. Drum scanners are really high end machines, they render images about 8000-10,000 (some even 24,000dpi) dpi. Usually the pros use it for exhibitions or commercial jobs for e.g billboards, posters etc. I doubt you need so much resolution, unless you plan to print billboard size. The only lab I know that offer drum scanning is PhotoMedia at SS2. The last I checked, the rates were RM 1= 1MB. And the size of each image is at least 100MB. Usually more.

The dedicated film scanners are like Nikon Coolscan. Small, portable and gives good output. The problem is they are still expensive and the lower end models only take 35mm. And I think they are discontinued ever since digital become more popular. So if you want, you need to either ask Nikon to ship one here or buy from eBay.

The problem is they are still expensive and the lower end models only take 35mm. So,if you plan to use 120mm or 4x5 in the future, you need to upgrade scanner. That's why I usually recommend the Epson V700. Quality is at par with the Coolscans and much cheaper. It takes 35mm, 120mm, 4x5 and 8x10 films.

If you want the scanner just for web presentations or small prints (up to 8x10), the Canon 8800F (or similar models) are good enough. Most of my stuff are scanned using that.

If you are serious about archiving your negatives and print larger than 8x10, go for the V700.

For a hobbyist, I won't recommend getting a drum scanner. Not only it's expensive, you need maintenance, etc.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you need anything! smile.gif

A decent flat bed scanner is the Canon 8800F. They should cost about RM 700-800 in Lowyat. Decent quality for small print, web presentations but not so good for large prints.
Next level up is the Epson V600 or V700. Very good quality even for large prints. But price is RM18XX.
After that are dedicated film scanners, like Nikon Coolscans, etc. RM 3XXX and above.

Drum scanners? They work by photomultiplier tubes rather than the CCD/CIS the usual scanners have. Drum scanners are really high end machines, they render images about 8000-10,000 (some even 24,000dpi) dpi. Usually the pros use it for exhibitions or commercial jobs for e.g billboards, posters etc. I doubt you need so much resolution, unless you plan to print billboard size. The only lab I know that offer drum scanning is PhotoMedia at SS2. The last I checked, the rates were RM 1= 1MB. And the size of each image is at least 100MB. Usually more.

The dedicated film scanners are like Nikon Coolscan. Small, portable and gives good output. The problem is they are still expensive and the lower end models only take 35mm. And I think they are discontinued ever since digital become more popular. So if you want, you need to either ask Nikon to ship one here or buy from eBay.

The problem is they are still expensive and the lower end models only take 35mm. So,if you plan to use 120mm or 4x5 in the future, you need to upgrade scanner. That's why I usually recommend the Epson V700. Quality is at par with the Coolscans and much cheaper. It takes 35mm, 120mm, 4x5 and 8x10 films.

If you want the scanner just for web presentations or small prints (up to 8x10), the Canon 8800F (or similar models) are good enough. Most of my stuff are scanned using that.

If you are serious about archiving your negatives and print larger than 8x10, go for the V700. 

For a hobbyist, I won't recommend getting a drum scanner. Not only it's expensive, you need maintenance, etc.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you need anything! smile.gif

Thanks a lot for the info, was actually thinking of choosing which scanner and juggling between the options of getting a dedicated film scanner vs a flatbed =/

hmm? What issues? The 8800F is actually quite good for 120 scans. Here are some examples of mine:

But if you have the budget, go for the V700 smile.gif

I think it's just a different film advance lever. But if you aren't sure, then ask someone over there to confirm.

Locally, you can try various forums like this one, PhotoMalaysia, FTZ, etc. That is, if you want second hand.

First hand, like Ifer says, Shashinki.com. Or Shiro (they sell Zeiss Ikon), or Keat (Leica) or the new Leica Store at Avenue K.

You also can get them through oversea online stores like eBay, KEH.com, BH Photo, etc.

Depends what you looking for smile.gif

Well, depends on your budget actually... I'm assuming you're looking for Leica M-mount range finders. Voigtlander Bessa's are your low budget options, Zeiss Ikon mid range and Leica's are premium range rangefinders.

What time does Keat closes actually? I finished work late yesterday and drove by at about 8 and the chicken rice shop were placing their tables in front already. =/

Nevertheless, I managed to get hold of some Tri-X at Central Market for RM22 each. Price hike's steep. sweat.gif

I realized I dont have many color shots. hehe. Here is one:

user posted image

Shot on Velvia 100.


I think the complains are re: the color reproduction. They seem to have a little harde time to scan slides and some color negs. But nothing that cant be tweaked during post processing (which you should be doing anyway after scanning) So it wasnt an issue to me. The 8800F is cheap and good. I would have kept mine last time, but I needed to upgrade to scan my 4x5 negs.

Well, more or less. Try pushing your film to ISO 400. Most c41 negatives can take up to 2 stops of pushing/pulling and show no difference in the results. But that's just a guide, you'll need to experiment and see how it goes.

they basically develop the film for a longer time

but then again, with the booming of digital photography, mini labs are closing faster than usd dropping in values lol. most of the labs returned/sold the film processing machines as they can't maintain it due to low amount of films to be processed

did you process the film yourself?

it's dusty and notice there is a sort of 'bulan sabit' (lol) on the 3rd photo?
it's mishandling of the negative. accidentally 'folded' the negative.

but on the other hand, it gives a very nice 'feel' to it.

Yea, first time developed the BnW myself, taught by a very kind friend.

Yup, these scans are quite dusty due to poor scanning skill and rush, scanner borrowed from a friend haha...
i'm thinking of getting myself a scanner so i can put more effort on scanning my negs.
I see...gotta handle my negs better next time...I thought it was caused by flare lol...

Thanks !

dont worry about it.
self processing is fun. and tedious at times. once you are serious about it, you will realise that there is a huge world of black and white darkroom technique waiting to be discovered.

dust and scratches are normal for beginners but try to minimise it.

Not really tedious once you know how to do it. Takes me about 30 mins as well to develop 2 rolls of 35mm B&W film (more if you have a bigger developing tank). B&W has alot of variables that can change how the film look like, so if you do it yourself, you get to control the output.

well, I hold classes for photographers who want to learn how to develop or print for themselves. My next one should be after Raya.

But keep a lookout at the FB page, I usually put updates on stuff re: film photography there.

Overexposed is a certain, frame 11,12 and 13 could be affected, and any other frames that was exposed to the light too.
rx330 I asked my father to bring back some films from S'pore, but it seems over there you don't have much choice either. Where did you go for films?

Nokton 50 1.1 is quite an underrated lens as in bokeh but i found it to be opposite. The bokeh seems quite smooth to me
although i don't really care about it. It is the cheapest f1 lens in the market and available new.
Some say it is better than the rather overpriced nocti f1 in some ways.

P.S also much smaller than nocti f1 tongue.gif

I did contemplate to get either the nokton, the 50mm f1.5 ZM sonnar or the summicron as they are almost the same price but in the end I chose the cron.

Despite this, I'm really interested in the new 35mm f1.2 nokton!

I quite like the 50mm f1.5 sonnar, it has something special to offer...i love the old sonnar formula !

Cron 50mm DR is a spectacular lens too ! I would say all the old and new M/LTM mount 50s are incredibly good !

Maybe what you can do is to cross process (C41) the slide. hmm.gif Then can push 3 stops. thumbup.gif

I think I read it somewhere.

I you process using E6, the time the film is soaked in the developer is longer than C41. To compensate for it, some people suggest you overexposed your slide film if you plan to cross process E6-->C41. (<--I could be wrong coz others do cross process with no adjustment to exposure. notworthy.gif )

Anyway I think the reason you have very little error for slide is because when you develop slide film, you get transparency. That's it. The End. Finito. cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif

If you develop print film, you get negatives. Then you can still play a bit with the exposure icon_idea.gif when you print your shots. So a bit more leeway than slides.

If you develop slide as transparency with intent to scan (instead of using slide projector), perhaps you're more like normal film step. You can tweak exposure further in photoshop provided your negatives are not too thin, then send out for digital print.

Anyway, you can choose to do E6 or C41 just by informing the lab, though some labs will refuse to cross process vmad.gif . No need to DIY at home. thumbup.gif

LOL...i only have my 8800f...plustek is hard to get in Malaysia but it is considered the cheapest
dedicated 35mm film scanner in the market now.

Just realized that scanning expired film with flatbed scanner requires a bit more tweaking in setting
to reduce noise in shadow and better quality.

They are both different type of scanners. 8800f is flatbed and plustek is dedicated 35mm scanner.
If you plan to scan 120 medium format in the future, 8800f is the one you should pick as plustek can
only scan 35mm film. Quality wise, dedicated 35mm scanner is better but not really world apart difference, unless you use drum scanner which will cost RM30k.

If you are going to use your scans for sharing and uploading to flickr, the scan quality of flatbad scanner is more than enough.
You can get quite high quality from scanning fresh film without much tweaking. Refer to the photo i posted above which i
took with fresh fuji superia 400.
For me, flatbed scanner has more functions as you can scan documents, prints, photos, etc.

morning guys.

any idea where is the best yet cheap place to develop the 135mm films? so far i've sent my rolls to bybest photo seksyen 2, shah alam, but recently they increased the price sad.gif

any place in klang valley that charges RM5 (or lower) per roll for C41 developing process? the cheapest that i could find so far is RM6/roll at section 18, shah alam.
some info for E6 developing process fee would be nice too smile.gif

I've never used a v330 before but a V700. The v330 seems to be able to scan only 6 frames of 35mm film each time
and doesn't support medium format which may be important if you are going to shoot MF or have any MF film to scan later on.
If your budget is below RM1k and you want the best performance flatbed scanner,
by all means, get the canon 9000f or 8800f if you can still find it as they both cost around RM300-400 more than a V330.
I think the top up is worth.

True, but it takes some practice. Sometimes the tape doesnt catch on to the film leader.
You can also try to buy a film picker.

If u scan negatives, the color doesn't really matter much, it more likely depends on how you recover and tune the color as the scanned result will have different WB n magenta cast which need to be corrected in PP.

For sharpness comparison, I can't say much on v330, but v700 does produce very sharp scans. Canon 9000f is capable of producing sharp scans as well. IMO, sharpness is heavily affected by how flat is the film and not curvey, if your film is flattened before scanning, the result will certainly gain more sharpness.

If I were you, I wouldn't consider Fotosun to process my B&W. I have sent 2 rolls to them, maybe I'm just that "sueh" or what, but my 2 rolls of B&W destroyed by them, total loss, damages are like batshit splashed on all over my photos.
Their C41 is okay, but RM2 more expensive than I normally pay for at other place.

just want to share some information on the B&W films. unless you were using the CN type, usually the B&W films need more attention than the usual CN (Colour Negatives aka C-41 process) films.

conventional B&W films are also known as silver halide films and they use different type of chemicals to process. can't use machine to process these films and one has to do hand process and therefore, mixture of chemicals and etc are very critical.

what i will suggest to those who shoot B&W is to go to someone who knows how to process these type of films. or at least have massive experience in doing them. people like Yoong has been processing these films for years and therefore, you will surely get good results from him. there is a lab in shah alam, glenmarie area with the name of COMCOLOR. there is another sifu there by the name of Alan Ng. he has been processing his own B&W films for the past 30 years.

i stop doing B&W process myself 10 years ago. I used to teach students in tertiary education in doing these process. it took me like 5 to 7 years to perfect my development. it's not an easy job.

what i want to say is: don't let noobies ruin your films. it's not the money that hurt you the most. it's the lost of images that hurt

i think you can. check on the type of chemicals that require to push this films to 3 stops.
but why don't just get a 3200 films? TMAX 3200 or DELTA 3200?

If you send to the lab to develop and print, usually their machines already calibrated with each other, so their output is OK. If you scan at home and send to print, you need to calibrate your monitor to their printer.

just want to share some information on the B&W films. unless you were using the CN type, usually the B&W films need more attention than the usual CN (Colour Negatives aka C-41 process) films.

conventional B&W films are also known as silver halide films and they use different type of chemicals to process. can't use machine to process these films and one has to do hand process and therefore, mixture of chemicals and etc are very critical.

what i will suggest to those who shoot B&W is to go to someone who knows how to process these type of films. or at least have massive experience in doing them. people like Yoong has been processing these films for years and therefore, you will surely get good results from him. there is a lab in shah alam, glenmarie area with the name of COMCOLOR. there is another sifu there by the name of Alan Ng. he has been processing his own B&W films for the past 30 years.

i stop doing B&W process myself 10 years ago. I used to teach students in tertiary education in doing these process. it took me like 5 to 7 years to perfect my development. it's not an easy job.

what i want to say is: don't let noobies ruin your films. it's not the money that hurt you the most. it's the lost of images that hurt

Just want to re-iterate what Ifer is saying. And it's true.
Learning how to develop yourself is easy, takes only a day. But to master it and understand how it works and how it affects your negatives takes long than that. I too took about 6 years to understand and master the developing techniques.

Yes. Just the 'cuci' part. You can learn how to calibrate your shooting style with your negatives and eventually your negatives with your printing. Learn how to adjust variables to control contrast, grain, density, etc. How to compress your tones, how to push/pull, stand develop...and the list goes on!

But I guess you can cut down the time in half if you do it everyday for 3 years hehe.

do yourself a favour and read up on the "Zone System" for shooting and printing. Then try to read up on Adam Ansel's original books. No respectable B&W photographer should have any excuse not to know him. His books and methodology on shooting and printing B&W is the "bible". It taught me when to push pull processes, when and how to over or under expose my film and process your film later in the lab for highlights or shadows. The only way to get the best B&W unfortunately is still to DIY.

Yes I know Ansel Adams. I have browsed through two of his books The Negative and The Print. Very dry, very difficult to read. Yet if you decide to study Physics or Chemistry (the sciences behind photography), you can get a degree within 4 years and probably a PhD in 7 years.

If you pile up all of Ansel Adams' books versus the total coursework for a 7 year program that leads to a PhD, that is a whole lot of learning. I hope you'll see my point of view. nod.gif

That is why I said "try to read up" his work smile.gif
But yeah it is super dry i have to agree so just pick up "The Negative". I swear that the moment i started using even the basic the Zone System philosophy for exposure for my photography it nearly eliminated all my exposure errors. Best part is it also works for colour photography.

ermm, you can get a 3rd class degree in 4 years. and of course you can learn how to process a roll of black and white film in 3 hours.

but it is a different pot of soup altogether if you want to master in processing black and white films

Ifer,

I understand that there is a lot to learn especially if you want to print. Most of us part time amateurs here just want to get B&W negs without "splotches of batshit" from the local lab. If the lab screws up your negs, perhaps some want to DIY.

When you start to say it takes 4 to 7 years to learn to cuci filem shocking.gif , sure a lot of people will shy away from giving it a go sweat.gif .

In reality, B&W processing involves only 3 chemicals (Some even use less ohmy.gif ). Follow the manufacturers instructions and you can't go wrong. It not rocket science. Negs good enuff to scan and post in Low Yat thumbup.gif , but for photo exhibition in the Gugenheim surely cannot la. shakehead.gif

p/s - I look up how long it takes to do a degree at MIT and Caltech. Guess what ... its four years. These can't be 3rd class degrees no? flex.gif

Zone System is just one type of workflow. And it's just Ansel's way of taking his photos. It's not really THE way to take photos. There are other worklows like Beyond the Zone System, etc which is actually a little easier to understand.

It's good to know, but not a must.

hiroboroi,

it's true that there are only 3 chemicals involve in black and white developing. more if one is more how to say, concern about the outcome of the negatives.

film developer, stop bath and fixer are the 3 main chemicals. you mentioned less. some do not use stop bath and use only water.

i mentioned more. i use photo-flo/wetting agent to reduce the water marks on negatives. some will use rapid washing to reduce the time used to wash the negatives after the fixing step.

as i have said, it takes one 3 hours to learn how to process their own black and white film (with supervision). i used to teach classes like this everyday last time. it's easy. and i am sure you will be able to learn how to process the film in 3 hours, not 7 years. it's the perfecting the skill that takes the longer time.

p/s: if it's only 3 steps of chemicals and thus, simple enough for amateurs to do, why do certain photography labs who are doing it professionally gets 'splotches of batshit' result?

p/s II: 3rd class degree means a CGPA lower than 2.5 and not where you get it. you get an average of C in all your result and you will get a 3rd class degree... even from MIT. heck, MIT might not have it because you will be kicked out long before you graduate i suppose.

p/s III: it will take even longer to perfect the skill in printing. i have known ILFORD certified master printers in london who took them 40 years to get the certification. and of course, it's not rocket science. it's art.

Ifer,

Why splotches of batshit? That was someone's comments here, not mine. But if I have to guess, I think the lab hired Mr. Bean to cuci filem. Or more likely, El-cheapo lab wants to maximize profits. Used expired/contaminated chems. So customer kena con. doh.gif

Not really because it's expired. It because of how it's developed and the post processing into it after scanning. From the looks of it, it's because of the sharpening.

USM in software also can cause over sharpening and increased grains like that. Or it may be due to the compression. You need to check the negatives, as I said earlier somewhere else.

The best way to assess your photos if by inspecting the negatives. Check the density, contrast and grain. Use a loupe and check it. Scanning is a transfer of data, so some data will be lost or altered, therefore it is not accurate.

with this you can inspect the grain, density, detail, focus and colour balance. I also used to determine if my negatives are scratched or just part of the picture (sometimes this is not obvious to the naked eye). Then once I have selected the picture I want I ask for high res scan of that 1 frame... save me some money on having to low res scan the whole roll.

A loupe and a lightbox (a proper light balanced one if budget permits) they LOOK something like this (again u dont need to spend a bomb on them. The picture is just as example of what a loupe and lightbox look like). Two loupes on top of a lightbox

My friend got an old loupe which was originally used for checking stamps, but he now uses it for checking his negatives lol

Just buy any loupe like you said for inspecting stamps, then use your computer screen in a white background or iPad as the lightbox. That's what I do.

riggo, usually densitometer is used by pro lab or university/college or super hobbyist black and white photographer.
i learnt how to use one in college actually and seen it when my colleague was using it to check on the ESIX process for kodak.

A densitometer is a little overkill, but if you really want one, EBay is the place to get it.

Nice clean scans. The second BW photo needs some adjusting on the curves though.

Get a scanner and scan them yourself. A decent one is less than RM 1k now, for both 35mm and 120mm.

Hey guys! Where could I get a reliable film developing service in KL? I have a number of films from my recent trip to Vietnam. I usually go to Photosun SS2 but I wasn't too happy the last time they did my B&W.

Any suggestions? I don't mind paying a little more as this is a one-off. biggrin.gif

Would love to really, and the bazaar looks fun but I just got back from Miri and still recovering from a fever. Anyway I think I'll send the B&W stuff to you, about 2 or 3 rolls. Will PM you.

The rest are C-41 though, any recommendations? I've read that E6 at Pudu is quite professional, anybody here tried their services?

Tried C-41 at E6, not that good for me during my last visit...and uber expensive...scanning alone costs about RM25...developing around RM15 if im not mistaken.

Sure. Just pm me when you want to me to develop for you.

E6 is not too bad, but expensive. Try ColorDotCom at Damansara Utama. So far I've heard good reviews of them.

That's a myth. All scans need some post processing. Even if you ask the Fuji lab to scan them, their machine does some post processing. Scanning is transfer of data and there will be loss of data in transfers. So you need to tweak them to bring out the details, set the curves/levels correct and apply sharpening at least.

rx330,
developing the film is some kind of 'pp' - what chemical to use, etc.
print out is some kind of 'pp' - what type of paper used. burn, dodge, types of chemicals used. technique of printing, etc.

i think 'pp' is necessary to create something that we want. not necessary a must but i think it's necessary to do if one would like the image to be something that one sees in one's mind eyes

But on the other hand people like HCB who do street photography is not that much into "performance". I think they are more interested in the the scene inside the picture, the moment, the faces of people. So I think HCB subcontracted his printing out. thumbup.gif

HCB's photographs are very different from Ansel Adam's photographs. Besides, by simply choosing this b/w film rather than that b/w film is already a 'pp'. no meh?

true! Haha! Some film gives more sharpness and others give more grain while others renders skin colours better.


Added on September 20, 2011, 3:04 pmrx330: no matter pp or not pp, you'll have to at least adjust the curves of the b&W photo to make it "pop". Else it would have just been in boring shades of grey. Your before and after pic above best represents this =]

LOL u two ! haha,

Hehe, apparently its easier to use large aperature lens on RF than a slr or dslr. (if your RF and lens are adjusted properly) biggrin.gif

never tried SLR, but i guess manual focusing shud be quite similar on the DSLR and the hassy
yes, rf is much more easier

zeipher, nice one,.... care to share the settings for this kind of shot?
and another reason i like film is the outcome after developing... priceless wen u got it right

oh ya, just gotten my V700

@rx330: Thanks. Used an Olympus RC35 + Fuji Superia 200. Camera settings, don't really remember laugh.gif

manual focusing on my SLR is straining my eyes compare to focusing with RF sweat.gif maybe if you have those split image screen would be easier but mine is the matte type

Yes it will help a lot for manual focus SLR. But which one will better? Horizontal or Diagonal?

Question: Do the normal shops, let's say photosun ss2 develop slides or black & white? or need specialty store to do it?

Till now, all I've used are superias and a cross processed elitechrome (don't like it shakehead.gif )

Not all labs do E6 and B&W. But I wont call those who do specialty stores la. tongue.gif Some will take orders and outsource them.
BTW, as you can read from LZF's post, I do B&W films. PM if interested.

@ifer: I have no qualms about the slight magenta color cast in that pic as I kinda like how it turned out to be. So, didn't bother removing it during PP.

@yoong: Noted, but I've yet to try on some B&W films.

magenta cast could add nostalgic and film feelings into the photos sometimes, just do whatever works best for you.
