Ill second that, I’ve recently got a FastFoto for exactly the same reason - the ability to blast through 30 photos at 600ppi in less than two minutes will make it a very quick job. You can always ...

My understanding was that it was available in 120 and 5x4 but because of some issues at Adox they currently don’t have any sizes other than 35mm.  I’d be interested in 120 though if it is ...

There is a worldwide shortage of colour film, caused by problems with lack of supply and a large demand. I’ve heard that there’s unlikely to be more ColourPlus in Europe before the end of 2022 It’s ...

I think unfortunately you hit on the images that NegMaster use to advertise their product - https://negmaster.com :-) Ive been shooting a Macbeth chart with various colour stocks and using them to ...

Oddly people on a photography site can be a bit picky about copyright, and as far as I’m aware those images weren’t originally published in the USA (they’re look like the ones out of Silvergrain ...

Copyright aside, there are a number of pieces of conversion software available  which do a pretty good job of inverting negatives.  Do you have any specific experience in negative inversion that ...

You are Lukas Büsse and I claim my £100 ! :-) If you’re not Lukas Büsse you probably need to credit them with some of the shots

I’ve never had a Hi Matic but I have had a Canonet QL17 which also had a guide number as a setting. From memory if you set it to a guide number then it will adjust the aperture in line with the ...

Yes they look good, and mine where they were fairly evenly lit were OK. The problem came where there was a big difference between the ground and the sky (which wouldn’t fit properly on slide ...

With film, sizes smaller than 135 were (and still are) called sub-miniature, so that’s everything from Minox to APS.  So it’s certainly not obsolete, if only to define film sizes smaller than it, ...

Funny though, that “small frame” wasn’t chose cf. film :-)

As you only want to do it once it might be worth having a good read of the VueScan manual, particularly the parts about improving image quality - https://www.hamrick.com/vuescan/html/vuesc23.htm Yo ...

Obviously the sub-min users knew it ….. My point was that the argument seemed to be that “it’s just a name”, but when it was coined (not now, 20 years ago or so ) there were perfectly good historic ...

It’s also referred to as “small format” (c.f. medium format and large format) but that’s a bit simplistic, e.g. is 127 film medium format as it’s bigger than 135.  There’s probably quite a bit of ...

If you want a long read I’d recommend these three articles, drawing parallels between the demise of the SLR vs the P&S, and the DSLR/mirrorless vs phone cameras - * ...

I’m all for nouns, but in that case why not use the well known name for the 135 frame size - “miniature” (see subminiature, smaller than 135 frame size) Answer, because bigger is better in tech - ...
