After this run I was so impressed with the results I decided to go again:
Took some more at a local street festival this past weekend that didn't turn out badly. Haven't gotten a chance to process (resize and crop out scanning mask) those yet. To now, these have all been shot on the Mamiya/Sekor 500dtl @ 80iso and meter.
I just got a new camera from Lomography. The Sprocket Rocket. In comparison to the 500 it's very limited. Single shutter speed, no film speed setting, 2 f stops for "sunny" and "cloudy." So, I figured, it wasn't too sunny the other day I'd shoot a test roll and develop it at home. So, I set it to the "cloudy" setting for more light and hopefully a bit over like the 80iso set. I was pleasantly surprised with the results:
The first thing I did when I got the Sprocket Rocket was pull out the sprocket hiding mask. I mean... why would they even send that with the camera? Anyways, I was very happy with the outcome. Granted, it's a little more foggy than I'd like; I can live with it, I think.
Now, I just have to mix my HC110 and get some more Tri-X. Looking at bulk rolling The Tri-X rebrand and saving myself a couple bucks. Just need to get that equipment.
Anywho, that's all for now. Oh! Meeting with a gallery owner about a possible show in November. We'll see how this transpires.
