Exploring Tri-X: 70 Years of Film Magic, Fresh vs Expired (1983)
มุมมอง 395หลายเดือนก่อน
Kodak Tri-X is one of the most iconic films in photography, but the Tri-X of today isn’t the same as it was when it came out 70 years ago. Will the present hold up to the past? Let’s find out. Throughout the years, changes in silver content, and evolving manufacturing techniques have transformed it into the 400TX of today. In this video, I take a deep dive into the history of Tri-X and put it t...
Simple Fix For Minolta SRT101: Stuck Mirror and Shutter
มุมมอง 254หลายเดือนก่อน
In this video, I tackle a common issue with my Minolta SRT101: a stuck mirror that won’t return and a second shutter curtain that doesn’t always close properly. After making the repairs, I thoroughly test the camera to ensure it's working correctly. These problems are often linked in this camera model, and when they are, the fix is relatively straightforward, requiring only minimal tools and ex...
I Tried Recreating a 130-Year-Old Developer... My First Time Developing Film
มุมมอง 2412 หลายเดือนก่อน
I’m jumping back into film photography after a five-year break. In this video, I’ll be shooting and developing some black and white Arista 400 film for the very first time. I’ll also take a closer look at the chemistry behind film development and try my hand at making the classic black and white film developer, Rodinal, myself.

    EXCELLENT! In wildlife photography we often have low light conditions and relatively high ISO, so we intentionally overexpose...a term called expose to the right (ETR), so the histogram is shifted towards brighter values but highlights of the subject are not blown out.

    Nice video! Do you know the storage conditions they were under? I just got a few rolls of TXP from 1983 that were apparently frozen until July 2024. From what I read and researched, I was quite surprised to see you go down to 50-100 ISO. I read that a single stop of exposure (from 400 to 200) might be enough for a film that was frozen for 40 years. Also, you didn't mention you experienced any fog...perhaps the HC-110 helped?

    • @NeverfStop
      @NeverfStop 15 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I don't know the storage conditions for certain. I got the film from someone who went to an estate sale. He said it was inside someones darkroom. So I'm guessing room temp, which might be why it worked a lot better at 50-100 instead of 200. If yours was actually frozen I'm sure they have held up a lot better to age. Also if you have TXP and not TX its 320 ISO and might have held up a little better. As for base fog, there definitely was some. But it honestly was minor. The negatives looked gray instead of clear. Very noticeable compared to new film but still very transparent. I didn't try any other developers so its hard to say how much the HC-110 helped. But, I suspect it was a factor and that's one of the main reasons I chose HC-110. I'm sure you'll get images shooting one stop over and you can always adjust a little for the next roll. Anyway, glad you liked the video and good luck with your Tri-X!

    You can calibrate your SRT to use modern batteries in it. th-cam.com/video/DYaKaJs8nOI/w-d-xo.html Also you can download light meter apps that are pretty accurate to compare camera/light meters too.

    Greetings from Malaysia. A big shout-out to you for this very straight forward video..mine having the exact problem and saves me repair costs which will probably be more than the camera itself! Initially i thought its the tired springs after so many years.. Did exactly what you taught..voila it works like a charm and its so smooth and energetic till you can feel the camera shakes abit when the reflex mirror and shutter hits😅 Thanks again..Cheers

      Thanks! Now that the solution is older with air exposure it’s a brown color and not as red so I’m leaning towards the dye with how much more red it was.

    I can recommend having the ingredients of caffenol on hand. It lasts a very long time if you leave it in its core ingredients and can be mixed shortly before use. However if you want absolute image quality and need it to last a long time I would suggest one of the Pyrocat recipes. But congrats in making your own developer, it is very addictive in my experience.

    • @NeverfStop
