What RF camera are you using today ?


weihsuan,

how to do 50mm FOV on a m3 ? you mean outside the frame lines ?
pls post your experience! the 40mm rokker/cron are inexpensive and very sharp...

Hello raytoei,

Yes, I'm hoping to use the entire finder and hope it estimates to be a 40mm focal length. No parallex error compensation, but I'm guessing at medium to far focus distance, it should be a good rough estimation. The M3 doesn't allow me to focus under 1m anyway.

I'll try to report back with experiences.

Cheers
 

Today, i am using the M6TTL with SF20 flash with 35 Cron.

Want to see if flash photos come up right.

hoot. My contax ax arrived yesterday with planar 50/f1.4. trying it out today.

this camera is one of its kind: a AF system that is based on manual focused lens. instead of the lens moving, the body moves the focal plane to give a AF system.... this means all the old MF zeiss lens based on c/y mount is now AF on this body...

Wanted to use the M9-P and SX35FLE today but never got to it. Maybe tomorrow...
 

my Olympus 35DC arrived today from seller. came with a px625 battery already included.
set the ISO to max of 800 and I am all set for my 4 day business trip.
this camera is a point and shoot in that the aperture and shutter speed is automatically selected,
i still get the pleasure of RF focusing but no DOF markings.
will be shooting with Neopan 400 pushed to 800.

Goes with the territory i guess.

inspired by a quote from susan meiselas who shoots documentary photography with a m3, i think with hp5.

"The camera is an excuse to be someplace
you otherwise don't belong. It gives me
both a point of connection & separation."

I'm using Voigtlander R4A currently.

Lens goes with it are 21 f4, 28 f2 and 35 f2.5.

I love using pancake lenses. they are so light and and easily be forgotten when shooting in street. :)
 

today, i am shooting with a really challenging combination:

- Leica m6ttl with 35 Nortkon 1.4
- Poly Pan F 50 iso

* i really can't get the hang of 35mm FOV so I want to challenging myself
shooting something so wide, ie. I have to get closer.

* i bought 152m of this surveillance film, translate to roughly 500ft of 35mm perforated film.
Which is approximately 100 rolls of 36 exposure film or 130+ 24 exposure rolls which I am used to.

At 50 ISO ..... hahhahaha.... yesterday I shot 3 rolls at 50 iso and told fotohub to develop one roll at ilford pan f time,
one roll at pan f + 1/2 stop push and one roll at 1 stop push. Let's see how they pictures come out before I develop this roll.

even at one roll a day, i will never finish my film stash in a year...
