I'm reminded of this every time I shoot with my 4x5 pinhole camera or my Canon 300D with the drilled body cap.

I do. The shower is where I'm drying my film now.  I could turn on the water to steam things up a bit before hanging my film, but we're under some pretty serious water restrictions in Southern ...

Thanks for the responses,  I've given my negs a closer look, and it's obvious that there is dirt embedded in the emulsion.  Clearly, my drying environment is not dust free...  Too bad I can't just ...

I used to have a home darkroom, in which I created lots and lots of prints up to 16x20.  It was built from particle board as a free-standing unit inside my garage.  Needless to say, it was not the ...

Thank you, Ulrik!

Shot in the Cleveland Botanical Garden in May, 2022.  Canon AE-1, Canon FD 50mm f1.4, processed in HC-110. Nikon 5000ED scanner.

Took a studio lighting class during lockdown.  The school had enough equipment to loan two Profoto strobes, umbrellas, softboxes, and seamless to everyone in the class so we could set up a studio ...

So here is my take.  Shooting film is hard!  Unless you find a camera with a decent autofocus system, you will be relying on your eyes to focus.  That's been the biggest challenge for me. I have a ...

Thanks, everyone, for the opinions and links.  I don't know how many more lenses (except for vintage glass) I'm likely to buy, but I'll probably just have to invoke the "is this good enough for ...

A common theme on many of these forums involves folks who argue over the sharpness of a particular lens.  The argument often ends with "You got a bad sample.  Send it back."  Honestly, there seem ...

I'm 71, in not awful shape, and I carry the 100s and a backpack with extra batteries, a 23, a 100-200, and a water bottle.  Sometimes I add a Canon AE-1 into the mix.  It's a bit of a slog if I'm ...

Good to hear you've avoided Covid so far.  I have, too.  Like you, I bought a 100S.  It was not my first Pandemic purchase, though.  In the early days of Covid when Los Angeles was under lockdown, ...

When you look at your LR library, do you see the jpegs?  If yes, then you should delete the unwanted images through LR.  If not, then you can delete them outside of LR, because LR doesn't know ...

Thank you!

Unfortunately, the Express version doesn't include the only feature I need -- tethering.

I had to use Capture One while taking a studio lighting course, and I was impressed by how easy it was to tether my GFX100s.  Tethering via the Fujifilm plugin in Lightroom, in contrast, is kludgy ...

I have a 50r and a 100s.  The joystick on the 50r works.  The one on the 100s doesn't.  I'm reminded of just how bad it is every time I need to format a card.  A press is almost always interpreted ...

And for me, that one issue is worth my $10/month.  Images that I gave up on, say 5 years ago, can now be turned into images that people hang on their walls.

I had this same issue the last time around.  I used the Fuji Cam Remote app on my phone to download and transfer the new firmware to my camera.  The app is pretty crappy overall, but it seems to ...
