  1. Canon Scoopic. I'm selling one in Mexico city, it you are interested
  2. Do you think this dilution 1+8 and time would work for an ORWO N74+? How would you develop a B/W negative?
  3. Are you interested in vision 200t 5274 and vision 500t 5279? I've got short ends.
  4. Does anyone convert arri 2c to 2 perf in NY or in the United States?
  5. Want to buy a 2 perf 35mm film camera. Preferring a 2c. Im in mexico
  6. I would even rate it at 50 and develop it normally. After scanning and grading you will have more flexibility with shadows. Don't worry about highlights, film will take care of it easily.
  7. I've had the issue with quarz ds8 soviet cameras. I sent them to my trusted tech. He told me he just cleaned it very well inside and now they are working perfectly. Soviet made are very sturdy and, according to him easy to repair.
  8. Hello, I own a set of Zeiss ZF which i use for cinematography. I love the microcontrast / image fidelity / background separation / 3d pop effect... as you want to name it. I infer that lenses with less than 7-9 eelements will enhance the effect. However some Zeiss wide angles have more elements and a phenomenal pop like the Distagon 25mm f2. This is my favorite feature of lenses. I privilege microcontrast way more than sharpness or corrected aberrations. I haven't tried voigtlander lenses but I know they have similar rendering. Do you know other lenses —excluding the super expensive ones— that have high microcontrast? I would like to buy more lenses like this. Here I attach two photos shot with the Distagon 25mm f2 ZF.2 to illustrate what I'm talking about.
  9. Another postcard, this time developed by me (very messy).
  10. Another postcard. This time developed and scanned by Labo Digital, Mexico City
  11. A tech in Mexico City already repaired 2 canon DS8 for me. If you come sometime let me know. He is an excellent tech. He has repaired almost all the cameras I've sent to him.
  12. If you come to Mexico City I could offer some shoot and develop workshops in different formats and films.
  13. I use a Kern Switar 25mm f1.4 since the viewfinder corresponds to that focal distance.
