Nikkormat FT2, NIKKOR-H Auto 50mm f/2, 1/125s, f8 – Kentmere Pan 400
Developed in Ilford Ilfosol 3 at 1:9, 6½ mins at 20°c.

A few years ago I found a shabby NIKKOR-H Auto 50mm f/2 lens in a charity shop for a fiver… I wouldn’t say the results are shabby though, would you?

Digitised using Nikon D5600 & AF-S Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8 and Nikon ES-2 Film Digitising Adapter with minimal cropping and tweaking in Lightroom Classic CC.

Nikon F75, AF NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8D, 1/180s, f8 – Adox Color Implosion!

I’m not sure how long this roll of Adox Color Implosion! had been sitting in my F75 but Adox appear to have ceased production of this film in 2017!

I obviously didn’t pay much attention to the tell-tale window on the back of the camera either as until I unloaded it I thought it was a roll of black & white film!

Fujifilm DL-270 Zoom, Fujifilm Super-EBC Fujinon 35-70mm at 70mm, Fuji Superia 400

I’m not over fond of zoom lens compact/point & shoot cameras but the Fujifilm DL-270 Zoom seems fairly capable. Not bad for a fiver!

The Canon EOS 30/EF 40mm f/2.8 STM combo is probably my favourite camera for snapshots at the moment, I’ve used it quite a bit this summer…

Single frame… Infrared experimentation

Nikon FA, Nikkor 24mm f/2.8 Ai-S + R72 filter – shutter speed unrecorded, f11, – Adox HR-50
Developed in Ilford Ilfotec DD-X at 1:4, 7½ mins at 20°c.

In a recent post about infrared photography I mentioned a roll of Adox HR-50 that was waiting to be developed… this is the first edited image from that roll…

Again, nothing complicated on the settings front, aperture priority automatic, hyperfocal focusing and +1 stop exposure compensation (in this particular instance…)

I’m definitely going to be experimenting further with infrared!

Fujifilm X-E4, Fujinon XF 16mm f2.8 R WR + R72 filter, 17s, f5.6, ISO 160

The recent hot weather has seen me dabbling in infrared photography, both with film and digital.

The roll of Adox HR-50 awaits developing but this image was taken with my Fujifilm X-E4, 16mm lens and a Hoya R72 filter.

Nothing complicated on the settings front, aperture priority automatic and the monochrome+red filter…
