Oh nice, I really like FP4 especially pushed to 400. Never used Pyro, been mainly using Kodak Tmax developer. I'm sure it'll play well with Pyro too. These were all scanned with a mix of a Nikon Super Coolscan 9000ED and a shitty Canon flatbed. I scan now with a Sony a7 and macro lens, wayyyy quicker with better results.

>>4492392
Thanks anon, appreciate your comments. Get some colour film and have fun! I don't shoot it anymore, bw film tickles the itch for me now.

>>4492418
Thanks anon <3. I enjoy playing with scale a quite a bit for sure.

>>4492421
Probably because it essentially was, given it was a Canon flatbed from the early 2000s.

>>4492486
I want to move back regardless, miss it.

>>4492509
Thanks anon, go back for a visit. What internship were you doing? Also always open to critique. Taste tends to outpace skill.

Digital Medium Format thread

Quoted By:

Well I ordered a used Fujifilm GFX 100s for 3k and the Gf 50mm f3.5 for a little over 600$. I've been doing a series of suburban/urban landscapes late at night and was previously shooting with a Nikon z7ii and the 35mm f1.4 and Voigtlander Nokton 40mm. I think the 50mm should be a pretty good light weight option but I was also looking at adapting some pentax 645 and Mamiya glass. I've also heard the Mitakon 65mm f1.4 is pretty good. Any suggestions or tips for someone who hasn't ever shot digital medium format?

I rented a hasselblad x2d a week or so ago. Truthfully after editing they looked pretty much exactly the same as Fuji ones. I would go with hassy if I needed high speed flash but otherwise I don't really see a reason. Plus I could only use the electronic shutter of I was adapting anything.

i had a 50r and the 50mm 3.5 and the 65mm mitakon for a bit. sold the 50r and the 50mm and got a 100s and the 45mm 2.8. it spends most of its time with an adapted macro lens attached now lol, because i use it to scan my film. the mitakon is good, about what you'd expect from a large aperture lens on the cheaper side. otherwise it's mostly used for friends and family pics
normally i shoot film or apsc. the most noticeable thing about shooting on the 100s for me is that the files are giant and slow to work on my computer. another strange result i get with the 100s and had with the 50r is color banding on jpegs. which seems strange to me because i never had an issue with that any other cameras - compact, apsc, full frame, etc. probably user error since i haven't heard of others running into this. you could say just always shoot raw if you're going to go to the trouble to get a gfx. that's pretty fair but a lot of the time you don't want to deal with a 200mb raw file and its annoying for such supposedly powerful camera to have such a lame shortcoming. besides that, it's very nice

people hear 'medium format' and expect to get blown away. but as you'd guess from the sensor size, it's not radically different from ff

Actual medium format film is noticably nice because you get very fine grain (except for 645) and pleasing film attributes in basically any scenario outside of super low-light.
GFX Medium Format is like what... 1.2x larger than FF? Pretty sure 645 is 1.4x the size of 35mm/FF, and 6x7 is 1.5x. Except I'm absolutely convinced due to the way smaller pixel pitch you get worse colour rendition and less light gathering.

Yeah, I can't quite pin it down, but I feel the same way. Photos just look better on FF somehow. I'm certain that you can edit both in LR for specific shots and I won't be able to tell them apart, but the JPEGs my camera spits out look so much better when using FF.

I'm sure somebody will just say it's because I'm a shitty photographer, which wouldn't be totally untrue, but to me it was like the aps-c REALLY needed totally ideal lighting to look good, where the full frame sensor is more forgiving. It's like the threshold for the quality of a "normal" image is a lot higher, so even stuff in non ideal lighting looks better from the get go.
I don't know how to describe it, but I could just instantly tell I preferred full frame.

That being said, I loved the size of the x100vi and the different configurations you could set it up as with the conversion lenses and external flash etc. both for photo and video. It was insanely handy, it just wasn't right for me.

I know exactly what you mean, but for me it was the inverse path to yours.
I started on APS-C as my first ILC and used it happily for, I kid you not, close to ten years. My dad has been running FF with an MF prime that whole time and every time I would look at his photos, I could see that the images would just come out differently. Eventually, I ended up buying a FF camera last summer and my images they have that same something that my dad's did, even though I'm running a superzoom.
Hard not to be excited about FF with compact bodies like A7C2 and Zf.

Show us the AI generating a coherent 14 bit raw file. No crazy histogram per rawdigger. Expected shadow and highlight recovery per the model. Realistic metadata (which is a lot more than exposure). Correct non image info like masked pixels and sensor state data.

I’ll wait

Film is fun but it needs to be more advanced to btfo digital veracity. For film veracity it has to generate a coherent 8 bit, 24-36mp image. Maybe less because film is a medium and the writing process could go through an authentic film camera lens

Camera is just a tool. A good tool gives utility which a shitty tool does not have.
It's the camera user who takes the good and bad photographs. One who can not take a good photo of a slow or static subject in good light with a shitty camera likely can not do it with a good camera.

I'm fine with our main points being in agreeance, but is "everything that really matters" only like 0.5% of photographs taken after we exclude phone pics (which reduces that to like 0.005%)? Idk man, I've seen plenty of studio-tier and natgeo-tier stuff that's been taken with Cannikons and look great.
One day I'll do some 6x7 stuff but honestly fuck me it feels like the pricing on those cameras is scuffed lately.
