    I could tell that was Foma 200 and Rodinal before I even saw the description. It has a certain character that's hard to miss.

    Micro 4/3 Advice on really portable M43 for street and travel shots

    I took an EM5II and a GRIIIx to Greece early this year, and the EM5II was more useful most of the time. Having different focal lengths is hard to beat for travel, and I would probably pick the GRIII 28mm over the IIIx if I did it over. The EM5III has a much better EVF than the GX85, so what you...

    What game are you playing or looking forward to play?

    Brothers isn't a co-op game; it's a game where you operate two characters as one player. On the Xbox, it meant that half the controller plays one character and the other half plays the other. This is used to masterful effect.

    Film Expired Film Exposure Comp Query

    I think Fomapan often benefits from being shot at a lower ISO than what's on the box, so it probably wouldn't hurt to shoot that at 200; then again, you could shoot at box speed and double down on the grain, it's a pretty grainy film, in a nice aesthetic sort of way. The Gold 200 looks good shot...

    Film Expired Film Exposure Comp Query

    That would actually be push processing; pull processing would be less development time = simulating less exposure. My understanding is that giving it more light, i.e. some positive exposure comp is better than pushing the film, because it will look grainier (both because of the age/degradation...

    Micro 4/3 Advice on really portable M43 for street and travel shots

    The GX7 had it, but that early stabilization wasn't on par with their later stuff. Bear in mind that with the GM series, as with the GX800/850, the mechanical shutter tops out at 1/500, and faster speeds are with an electronic shutter which doesn't have the best speed, resulting in rolling...

    Just finished reading this, and felt the urge to snap a photo with the Pentax Monochrome and 43 Ltd... ... and then felt a tug of appreciation for the K-1 as well, and shot the same shot with the 35-70 at 70mm in "Macro" mode: Satobi profile really does do scenes justice. Both edited a bit...

    Lens TTArtisans new 75mm f1.5 lens in M42 mount (Biotar based)

    In live view, yes; and the OVF has a focus confirmation even in manual focus, by means of a green dot in the bottom of the OVF, illuminated focus point and/or a beep.

    Lens TTArtisans new 75mm f1.5 lens in M42 mount (Biotar based)

    I think the cool thing about releasing lenses in M42 mount is that they should be adaptable to the Pentax DSLRs, which usually lose out to these third-party lenses which only ever tend to get released in mounts with shorter flange distances.

    I think a bulk roll of Fomapan 100 sounds like a great time - as long as it has no manufacturing inconsistencies, which seem to crop up now and then. I had a bulk roll of Foma 200 and enjoyed it, but 100 is probably my favorite B&W film. Its look is so classic and it is chef's kiss with Rodinal.

    News Bruce Gilden “I’ll be broke in a year”

    I mean, I don't hate his work. Some of it is really compelling. I think his schtick, the in-your-face street ambushes, are the least interesting work he does. Viewing them gets old for me almost immediately. Much of the other stuff is really interesting. I think he's a better portrait...

    If you're "famous," I think you are open to rather harsher criticism, as long as it's not completely unwarranted. Which I don't believe your post was.

    I find Rodinal gives it some added analogue charm. You're right though; it is almost too clinical of a film, while also being impressive in resolution.
