      Who needs Tri-X, this is exactly the same but for half the price. As evidenced here.

    • @Nitidus
      @Nitidus 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      ​@@chumleyk Especially since Agfa doesn't do medium format anymore. For 35mm, Agfa 100 or 400 (forgot which one) has almost the exact same reproduction curve as Tri X. And depending on where you live it might be available in almost every drug store. Then again, a lot of people say Agfa and Kentmere are the same emulsion, so in case that's true, it doesn't matter.

    The photos are stunning as usual, but I'm also loving the atmosphere in the studio. You have a great, positive attitude that turns the photoshoot into something relaxing and friendly. Add to that someone like Kendall, who is just as positive and radiates tremendous vibes, and that's it. Nothing can go wrong. 🙂 Cheers! //Rick

    What I appreciate most about your photography and your channel is your interactions with the subjects you capture; you have genuine interactions with everyone you collaborate with and there’s always positive energy. I wouldn’t initially pair lingerie with boxing but somehow it works. It’s dope. The business casual is well executed and so effortless as well 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

    Bring film back. I remember the days of that Pentax beast.
    Like to see you with an enlarger, dark room, red light and photo paper. Go all the way. No computer, no software, just photo paper, developer and fixer. In the early 70s, while stationed in the Philippines at Clark AB, we had a photo lab where we developed film and printed black and white pictures. That was a ton of fun.

    Nice shoot Mike, great model. When I shoot studio Pentax 6x7 I use either the 90 mm or the 165 leaf shutters and just lock the mirror up shoot any shutter speed you want. That 1/30 speed with that focal plane shutter is just way to slow with any ambient light or subject movement with strobes.
    Keep up the Great work.

    I love seeing people shoot film. But without discussing the chemistry you used to process or how it was scanned--it's really not a useful film review. How does this compare to other films processed under similar chemistry? I suspect you don't know because you had to send it out to someone who has a Noritsu medium format scanner. This film was designed to be printed--not scanned. So what was the point of the "review"?
