10:18 beautiful shot !

[@darrengodssonfielding]

Thanks Dylan. I came away after shooting that, thinking I completely messed up the shot. But when I developed the film & scanned it in I was so surprised and enthused to see I actually got the shot. That's whats awesome about film. Being surprised by the images you get back

[@DylanFilm]

@@darrengodssonfielding Yes totally, it was shot on the fd 50mm right ?

[@darrengodssonfielding]

@DylanFilm indeed it was. Have you shot any film recently?

[@DylanFilm]

@@darrengodssonfielding unfortunaly no. but I've been experimenting fd lenses for video

[@darrengodssonfielding]

Awesome! I’m super glad this came in handy for you!!! Keen to see your results

Definitely a fan of all Tmax stocks. Particularly when processed with Tmax developer. Unparalleled latitude.

[@darrengodssonfielding]

Another TMax fan. Glad to make your acquaintance! I haven't used the tmax developer yet but I'm keen to try. thanks for watching and for letting me know about the developer. BTW, I'd love to see some of your favourite tmax images. end them my way on instagram or threads

@darrengodssonfielding When the film and chemistry first came out, my photo partner brought it to the studio/darkroom with the Kodak white paper. As I recall, the claim was highest range and lat with the finest grain made by Kodak when processed with the dedicated developer. We shot a test roll through a Bonica ( I think) and processed it. It was to my eye, and his, the best we had ever seen. Almost foolproof and forgiving, it was everything the white paper said.

[@darrengodssonfielding]

@@TherootsolutionsLV Very forgiving indeed with a brilliant sharpness & clarity. I need to get hold of the developer and try that combo out, now you've got me excited about it. Thank You
