On Wednesday I took the new Hasselblad with a roll of Ektar 100 out to the river to see what the Hasse would do with my favorite local mountain. I got the roll developed that afternoon by TCR and came home with the negs to do the scanning. Ever since then I've been working to clean up the dust spots. (That's why I don't like scanning!) I found a spot where I could get some foreground interest in the frame for Cany143.

The resulting TIFF is 201 mg. Sort of large, no?

I think this camera is a keeper. It's easy to use and gives pretty nice results. What do you think?

I like it. Medium Format film is great. I wish I still a 120 film camera. I agree having to spot out lint from scanned film is a pain.


Thanks. Film pictures are so great when enlarged.

I applaud you for following a passion. Personally, I've darn near forgotten all I knew about film work. A lot of satisfaction will come your way as you work through an issue, or two, that may crop up.

Thank you. It's that look of medium format film.

Thanks, Tom. You are so right. I have other medium format cameras. Each one got easier to use. The Hasse is the tops on my list right now.

Do you know how to use the Dust & Scratches filter in Photoshop? With very little practice, you can quickly fix large areas of dust spots and film scratches and you will not get the "blotchiness" from cloning or
individual healing brushing.

Photoshop Hall of Fame member Eddie Tapp (one of the most knowledgeable and helpful people I have every studied with) also has a technique that he invented before the newer tools of Photoshop were even invented and his technique works beautifully on dust. I have a "cheat sheet" I made for a class I taught about removing dust & scratches if you are interested, but try the Filters>Noise>Dust &Scratches technique in Photoshop first.

There are several newer YouTube tutorials about removing dust & scratches. Google can be your friend here.
