    Negative Scanner / Flatbed Scanner with Film Adapter

    Cheapest option is to buy a second hand scanner, use it, then flog it once you've archived your negs. Lots of people do this.

    For people who fear sensor cleaning..

    Oh god damn you, you're just reminding me that I still haven't finished working on mine! Congrats on the succesful op though :D

    Twas a good day for huntin'

    Liking that last one, because of the leaf. Would be interested to see an "untidied" version of it.

    Who still uses film?

    Rollei PAN25 is nicer... I wouldn't want to take it to a lab, though.

    B&W Film Verses Digital ramble

    I just did a load of work with a fairly basic Bronica setup, a load of Rollei PAN25 (slightly hard film to find, it is stocked in the UK though) & some heavyweight 16*12 matt FB paper... God damn the results are gorgeous. Since doing that, I'm finding it very hard to shoot digital for a few...

    It was a rainy Monday, but..

    I'm liking the B&W composite.

    Important announcement regarding Photography Forum Judges

    Pretty good photography forums . And there are lots more knocking about. I suggest people wake up, and if you want somewhere half decent to, well, talk photography, shove off.

    Infrared Filter

    If you really have no idea of what sort of exposure to use (which you won't at first) then an easy way to work is shooting at the highest ISO and widest aperture available. Then use cunning maths to transpose your decided exposure to a lower ISO and stopped down aperture.

    Infrared Filter

    I can see that it's your foot, but it looks like your nekkid. NEKKID AND PLAYING WITH IR FILTERS.

    Infrared Filter

    PUT SOME CLOTHES ON JOHNNY :eek: Lots of good advice there though sir. IR aint for everyone, but it can become very addictive - I'm having lots of fun with my recently modded D70 :D

    Cardiff bay.....

    Look around, eyes open. The bay is full of textures & abstracts - use them.

    Orton Effect photos........

    Doing it the "real" way produces better results - you get highlight halos et cetera. Some cameras will merge the shots in-camera. If not it's easy enough to do it afterwards in PS. It's nice for flower macros & other luvvy duvvy dreamy scenes ahem ;s - but I've seen it used best taken...

    Photography is evil but I love it!

    I've had the same set of lenses for a while now. There are big gaps between the focal lengths of my lenses. They're all OK quality - not great. Wider, longer, faster, better built lenses would be nice. But I just use these lenses, often going out with only one lens and little or no other...

    35mm B+W InfraRed Film

    Those aren't IR Raymond :) Ildord SFX is a bit crap - it only has very limited IR sensitivity. I use Kodak HIE - it's pretty nice, but not the best. It is the only one I can source easily, though. Can't tell you where - competitors.

    AF-C Shooting + Composition

    Truth. The centre AF point is a cross type, the other four are single line. Read this. While it doesn't relate directly to tracking moving targets, it will help you garner a better general understanding of the autofocus system on your D70.

    My first batch of Infrared photos

    It's down to the lens unfortunately, so the "fix" is a different lens or photoshoppery.

    New Legs?

    the 055 is inherently more stable than the 190 pro, too. The weight is prohibitive for wimpy little me, though - so I use the 190 pro.

    Rule of thumb...how to get the best sharpness?

    Sorry, I thought you were blindly telling me all that without any reason. At first thought, what you say now makes sense - but I'll need to think about it! I'll get back to you :D
