Film Lomo LC-A (Because Why Not)

[agentlossing]

I'm sure I'm only the latest of many who have picked up this legendary little compact, zone-focus camera. But we don't seem to have an image thread, so here goes! Please add your own thoughts and/or images, if you like.

Film notes: HP5+ developed in the Ars Imago Lab-Box in Rodinal 1:25 for 6 minutes, scanned with the Pacific Image XAs.

Third roll I've shot, some excessively curly Tri-X developed in Rodinal 1:50. Rodinal's known to not be great with Tri-X or other higher speed films, as it goes to town on grain. I actually like the way HP5 looks in Rodinal when pushed, but I'm inclined to think people are right when they say Tri-X isn't a good match. Incidentally, it's the second roll of Tri-X that I've ever shot, and I'm still not sold on it. Also, these negatives looked a little dense. Could have developed a little longer I think.

Having fun with the camera though!

One of the last rolls of my (scratched and bungled) hand-rolled Fomapan 200. I tried a different agitation technique this time, agitating every 30 sec instead of 1 min for 6 total minutes (Rodinal, 1:25). I think it developed this film more completely. The first image is guesstimating (with decent accuracy) the minimum distance of the scale-focus lens at 0.8m.

Next one was with the focus tab set unwittingly to 0.8m, the closest focus setting. Gotta say, the lens has good bokeh!
