@@MeasuredLight you can drive so far up then basically on hands and knees but not rock climbing stuff. You could easily carry a back pack to the top. The tracks are old timber cutting tracks we camp near them then walked,climb to the top. On peaks crossing side is almost a shear cliff down. Best way to get there is Wyatt Rd near flagstone then turn right at the end of the road and just keep left on the road through a couple of gates till you get to the top. If you go right on the track you’ll end up at Peaks crossing and a sealed Rd.

Thank you so much for watching, and thanks for the comment. I added extra exposure time for reciprocity failure due to the exposure times being longer than 1 second. Kodak don't seem to have any info on exposure correction for Gold 200, but being a "consumer" grade film I tend to err on the side of caution and add half a stop of exposure time 🙂

I have the FujiFilm GFX 50SII and three Fuji lenses for it. I have the 20-35mm, the 35-70mm and the 100-200mm. I also have adapters to use my Hasselblad V series lenses and Mamiya M645 lenses. I must admit I like the Mamiya lenses better than using the Hasselblad. They are just a bit easier to use on the GFX. I also have the Olympus PenF and my 12-40mm 2.8 Pro lens pretty much lives on it. It is my go to camera for grab shots and street photography.
@MeasuredLight10 ай бұрын
Ooooh. I would love the 100-200! I would probably stop using adapted lenses if I had it! I use an Olympus OM 100mm, and Hasselblad V 150mm and 250mm for longer reach. I more or less only use the 17mm and 45mm F/1.8 lenses on the Pen. E-M1 MkII with 12-40mm F/2.8 pro is what I use every day for work though. The Pen-F is truly a lovely little camera!!

Working with the 617 panorama format, requires an understanding of when the pano image works, however, that said, rules are made to be broken, I have had some amazing/unexpected results over the years, by breaking the rules, but always had beyond stunning landscape results by sticking the the F617 rules. Fuji provided a centre filter for the WA lens for good reason, it is necessary for even exposure on film, unfortunately a lot of the few cameras floating around, don't have them, due to owners/new users, who are clueless, however, a certain amount of adjustment can be had in post. One also needs to keep the camera clean, not in the dusty condition, the one in the clip is in. The main reason for this, is because dust is your enemy, when it comes to scanning. Your choice of film/filters is also very significant for the 617 format, especially if you want to do landscape photography/get the tonality/quality the camera is capable of. The Fuji centre filter acts as a handy underexposure control for positives (best film for the format, but requires more technical ability) of course you can adjust up a bit for negatives. Filter factors need to be checked, if you're shooting as fuji's engineers intended. Anybody contemplating working with this camera, needs a different working MO than used with DSLR, A slower, more methodical/contemplative approach, that is common in large format photography, is the ticket. I recommend ND grads by Lee or above but not Cokin, due to CC. Line up the filter/use BT to hold it in place. I use a Hasselblad flextight to scan 617, in truth the flextight/fuji 617 have become exclusive friends over the years. Good luck to anybody with the Fuji 617, if you learn how to get the best out of the camera, you will never part with it, that said, 80% of owners typically sell them/move on, because they are an expensive one trick pony, but what a trick it is! The Fuji 617 (all versions) is a very special camera for people with special vision/photographic skills.
