Test photo using my new 1983 Fujica GS645 Pro medium format folding camera. 120 Kodak T-Max 100@100 (as processes anyway) in Rodinal 1:150 semi-stand developing 50mins

Annoyingly the developed film came out almost completely clear. I managed to pull this detail using the scanner and photoshop. The Rodinal I used is more than a year old so I am glad it happened to this test roll rather than a film used for a model shoot.

It certainly gives a good vintage film look! War Memorial Park, Coventry

1983 Fujica GS 645 Folding camera + 120 Fuji Pro 400H

I had a few rolls of film back from the lab today and 2 rolls were shot in my new Fuji GS645 medium format folding camera. I had shot ISO 400 film at shutter speeds of 1/500 down to 1/125 yet when the shutter fired it sound slow regardless of the shutter speed. To Err on the side of caution I asked the lab to process the film 400@100 (-2 stops) to give me a chance of getting something. Fuji Pro 400H has good lattitude anyway in the highlights so luckily when I scanned the negatives they looked perhaps +2/+3 overexposed but the detail was all retained. Phew! The negatives looked a little washed out as a result so I upped the saturation and contrast slighly before posting. In some reviews Portra and Fuji 400H colours can look very similar but I much prefer them here.

If you missed it shared a Kodak Portra vs Fuji Pro 400H blog post yesterday - mrleica.com/2014/07/31/shared-kodak-portra-160-400-800-vs...

Very happy with both the sharpness of the 75mm f3.4 Fujion lens and the possible shallow DOF. Great camera despite the flaws.
