Few shots I took on Sunday with the Afga Billy Record II

I detected 2 pinhole light leaks on the bellow and there seems to be some slight fogging on the inside of the lens.Just patched up the light leaks last night and planning to go botanic gardens again after sending the camera for CLA. Hopefully the shots then would be better.

There you go! The picture looks so much better! Colour is right. Sharpness greatly improved too.

There are still flare which can be addressed by a clip on hood. Singapore is too bright and sunny. We need that.
The problem may go away when you shoot in the late evening or in diffused light. But a hood is always much better.

The first picture is not bad. Not bad at all

Recently I am hooked to Cooke Triplet lens design. Maybe can shoot together when you Billy is fully restored.

Thanks for the advice.

Humm...Clip on hood. Never know they are available. Any advice on where to get them?

Would love to go shoot together and get some expert advice. I've been shooting mostly on trial and error all along. ;p

I use quite a bit of ND filters for medium format, here's one from a recent wedding.

This was taken at 12 noon, sun was right over us, the ND filter puts the colours and contrast in the sky

Digital back? Looks like a bit of PS done, standard practice for Wedding anyway

Yeap, on the Hasselblad H4D-40. Not that much post processing done actually, just the usual dodge/burn, soften/sharpen selectively, warm up the entire scene

Almost like a dream. The couple must be very happy!!
One guy with the Contax 645 did my anniversary. There was so much PS done until I thought it was another guy married my wife.

Ha ha :thumbsup::thumbsup:

I have a similar shot but with my kid doing a strange expression in the fore ground.

The 50mm did not manage that wide.
Did you use two photos to form a super wide panoramic?
Oh I see it now, you use a 35mm.

wah.. indeed a pro... :thumbsup:
This is a merge and cropped from 3 portrait shots.

this shot was taken last Saturday morning.

Always love how really slow shutter speeds can be achieved on TLRs with the strap + camera-on-tummy stance
