I see people posting dyptichs for the world wide half-frame photography day, which is cool, but why stop at two frames? #wwhfpd (shot with Chaika-2)

Had a lot of fun hiking the Alps with my Nikon FM and a few rolls of Kentmere 200

Absolutely loved the results I got in medium format with orange filter (and the help of this glorious late winter afternoon sun)

First roll of Kentmere 200, shot in Paris and Strasbourg on my beloved half-frame Agfa, and developed in Ilfotec LC 29. Love the results so far!

Je remercie @odna.eu de m'avoir rappelé que j'ai ce sténopé panoramique qui dort dans mes tiroirs.

Oh! Je crois que j’ai exactement le même, acheté à Bayeux il y a quelques années !

I used to be very happy with my Soviet Seagull too, I might dust it off for the occasion

Spring has arrived and I went for a walk in my local countryside with my Agfa Isolette loaded with Ilford FP4 shot at 100 iso

Si ce sont des tirages pour l'expo à venir, c'est prometteur! Je n'aurai pas l'occasion de venir en Haute-Savoie en mars, je vais rater quelque chose 🥲

but that test roll actually came out too thin (not sure why really, but my film was slightly expired) so for this roll I have it one extra stop and a half

Now with regards to exposure... the ND3 is required because the Optima Parat's lighmeter has a max sensibility of 200 ASA. I shot a first roll @ 200 and developed it @ 3200 which should have resulted in a 1-stop overexposure...

I used Kodak TMax P3200 in a half-frame Agfa Optima Parat fitted with a ND3 filter, and developed it with TMax developer!

J'en étais à me demander s'il ne fallait pas demander des nouvelles par personne interposée. Welcome back! (et très très beau tirage!)

Wow, 6 stops is a lot. For my 1st redscale attempt I gave it 1 extra stop of exposure I think, film came out very much underexposed, so for the following one I gave it one extra stop again, in effect shooting it at 50 ISO instead of 200 IIRC. I should try overexposing a little more next time.

I’m no redscale expert but since it’s just standard colour film flipped over, yes I suppose you should get normal images if you flipped it over again yourself. I’m not sure how they set the ISO rating after redscaling the film at the factory though.
