The posting has been quite slow here lately. I am sure everyone is too busy shooting.

I thought it would be nice to have a post showing what everyone has been shooting in the past couple of months with their MFDB's.

I love seeing others work, and it always motivates me.

If you can, post an image with -camera info , processor app., and exposure info.

sounds like a tough session....

My picturesque neighborhood tourist trap.

Tech data: Handheld P45+@ISO400 underexposed by two stops, and Mamiya 80mm, my own profiling software to recover an image out of the underexposed capture, and heavy PS filtering. Original image is decently sharp.

Agreed--nice idea, JP.

Developed with LR, Hasselblad 500C/M, P45, CF Zeiss Planar 2.8/80, ISO 50, exposure unrecorded.

Indeed, Sacre Coeur. The world travels through it.

I've heard some ethereal singing in there.

Here's a few things I've shot recently. The captures were made with the P45 and Mamyia 645. Jim

Richard,

If you really like ethereal voices, you should visit my old college chapel (King's College, Cambridge) for an ordinary (non-special) evensong. The trick is to get a member of the college to find you a gown and take you into the closed off part of the chapel where the choir sings. If necessary bribe a student or don with a decent bottle of wine, it will be worth your time and expense.

Here is a few with Mamiya ZD, 80mm and 55 mm lens. 2007 Colorado and Vermont.
Some of these are multi-shot stitches.

Edmund,

It's now on my list for when I next travel to those parts. Thanks!

I love the birds in the sky.

Valeo22, H1.

I recently made the artwork for the "Worlds Largest Advent Calendar" (as far as Guinness is concerned) at the new Eurostar London, St Pancras Terminal.
The illustration of a London and Paris cityscape was done by an illustrator named Heather James on A3 bits of paper (eg. the Eiffel tower on 1 piece of paper, the London Eye on another piece etc.) This I then scanned in, hand traced and detail added in Adobe Illustrator.
1st pic is taken the 1st of December when the advent calendar started, and the other pic was taken on the 10th Jan, the day before it was pulled down.
A very annoying place to take a photo... can't get high enough and there are always wires and crap in the way.

250th F/11 60mm on the H3D at minus 5 degrees. Colorado. Bracketed the focus (3).

How did you blend the files, manually in Photoshop with layer masks or software like Helicon Focus? If the latter, I would be curious to hear about your experiences with it.

AFD w/ Aptus 22

Small shoots like this have let me ease in shooting MFDB for jobs. Still working some kinks out that just don't exist with shooting a Canon. The quality is worth it though.

[attachmentid=4662]

Jim,
I'm diggin' some of those airport shots. Great mood/tone.

Not as interesting as other peoples work for the moment...

Just Photoshop. I never heard of Helicon but found the site, for $300.00 US, I would be interested to hear if it is worthwhile. Best focus for any lens seems to be F/11 and 16, that means I could be doing this more often. Focus does not seem to be an issue with my architectural work at 11's and 16's, but landscapes are another challenge altogether.

mmmmh,

I cheat a little bit...
it's MF,
but it's film scanned and then processed in PS...

Well this is a really interesting topic and so much more informative than arguing endlessly over bit depths and noisy pixels. For me I think I prefer the Leaf files out of the digital backs. But, I'm sorry overall I prefer David's film image !!!

What film/camera/scanner did you use David?

not sure it has a lot to do with the film because I processed a LOT in PS. subtle NR, subtle sharpening several time, Layers, duplicate background, soft light, saturation, you name it... and a lot of back and forth to get there... so it's not too much film anymore... I guess I was inspired that day... and I guess it would have been easier with a digital file... but I don't know I keep looking at my bag and I don't find any DB

The scan I don't know I should ask the lab.

The camera is mam645, 35mm, I use a film as neutral as possible to have more room for post-process, exposed to it's nominal value not to increase the contrast, 160NC portra. Flash. The image was pretty flat actually but really clean. And I figured out it's, to me at least, the only way to process as I want a scanned film. In only film time I did expose the 160 at 100 or even 80 and the 400 at 320 but then I can't get too much from a scanned file.

ps : and it certainly help to have a web size image...

I'll add two more. Hey, it's January. Forgot to mention - H3D-39

Mamiya 645 AFD amd P45 Back. 55mm 1/8sec @ f/11. Table Rock Mountain South Carolina.

Gorgeous work, David.

P.S. Starting with film ain't cheating at all--great stuff.

Having trouble posting my image earlier.

Hasselblad H3d-31 HC 80mm lens. Aperture = f5.6; Shutter speed = 1/125s, ISO 100. This was a Christmas Holiday special.

Nicolas,
I know that you can do better than that, cause I have seen better images on your website. Is this my Polish friend when she was young?

I think this thread has some long legs!

Here are some personal ones of mine and some work ones.

All on H3D.


cheers

Nice thread, great work here!

I'll try to complete this post later when I've got more time but to start... Hasselblad H2 80mm with p21 and Contax 645 with film.
