I really do care, and I’m glad this thread stays here. Before my ‘vacation’ I was banned from the “ChitChat” Section, and removing that ban doesn’t seem to be important to the Admin - and I’ve chosen to not push the issue.

Now I asked him to end my ban, and got no answer.

SO GOOD BYE

Acoarst, there are bipeds who are hopeless at making breakfast, and they should NOT let misguided peer pressure push them into film !



I want to use film; I just allow someone else do the part I’d find a smelly task.

I have 3 or 4 card readers, only one is USB-C. What would happen if I plugged one of the other readers into the C slot?

Would the plug fit? The USB-C plug I have is much smaller than the USB-b sockets I have, but I do have USB-b to USB-c converters.

I don't know about Washinton state, but wherever there are cottonwood trees... eagle will be around. They love cottonwood trees and, in the winter, look for open water area. So, be sure you look for those trees. Good luck will be looking forward to seeing some photos!

Eagles nest anywhere there are any big tree and water to fish in. Here, we have a nest near the StJoe River, on land owned by Notre Dame Univ. There is a county park within sight of it, and the county and the University co-operate to allow people to see the nest without spooking the birds.

Completely different. First if all I was never big on shooting slides, but mainly with B&W film I was shooting a version of the zone system modified for roll film. Processing times and temperatures could vary for each roll.

To me they are the same question; no variation in B&W processing expected or wanted.

True.
But does everyone need or want them?
Or just certain individuals...

Batteries, tripods, ballheads, etc. tell much of a person's appreciation for quality. Many people on this site are willing to spend lots of money for the big-named star of the show, and then hire street bums for their supporting cast.

Some cababilities are available only on top-tier bodies.

I would never let someone else process my B&W film.

So, would you allow someone else develop your Kodachrome???

The one thing I have picked up on in all these discussions is, if you buy a third party battery, buy the same brand charger. Charge a Canon battery with a Canon charger. Charge a Wasabi battery with a Wasabi charger. The third party battery I bought when I forgot my Canon battery seems to be having problems after being charged in the Canon charger. A number of others have express the same thing, without a problem.

Let the flogging begin!

I charge my “Pentax” and “Kastar” batteries in either a “Pentax” or a “Watson” charger, whichever is more convenient for me.

Yes, but digital is quicker and less expensive and I don’t end up in a fight with my wife because I took over one of the bathrooms for a temporary darkroom.

Neither do I; I have it developed professionally.

Keep in mind, if you can't do what Chg_Canon recommends (great thought, btw), then when you do your conversion there are a couple of ways to do this. One is just to convert to b/w via the button that says, well, conversion to b/w.
Simple enough. Yet that won't give you the full spectrum of tonalities as it's a generic form of transforming the original color image.

What is recommended is to take it into Vibrance, Saturation - in Affinity it is simply labeled black and white - or whatever your particular program calls it, and take all the color sliders back. This will give you a full palate of tonalities with which to work.

It is a preferable method to those I've studied and spoken with, and good results are easier to accomplish, it seems, to finalize a 'classic' b/w image - yeah I know, now describe 'classic' -.....

One can use the sliders on the b/w details menu, where the separate colors can be used to enhance or detract for several varying tonality choices.

Quite some time ago I came across an article that explained how Hollywood transformed their color images to the
'classic' b/w tones they produced. If memory serves me, they had certain percentages of....well, this & that ! -to achieve their look. When I find it I'll post it.
Keep in mind, if you can't do what Chg_Canon recom... (show quote)

You could also do it how I do it - I use B&W film.

What would be the downsides of using non-Canon batteries in my R10? Example below. Not as reliable as Canon batteries? They're SO much cheaper, and the reviews are good.

People talk about “non OEM” batteries. That way it’s not brand specific. Look that up, and you’ll get an earful.

Or, let the target demographic age into the UHH community?

No gate keeps them out. The issue is their wanting to come.

NO, people that mostly complain about things are seniors and are crossing the bridge...

I am a ‘Senior’, and these days I don’t like crossing bridges, but I resolve the issue by having someone other drive {and don’t complain}.
