    Inventive. The car wash is « dope » [really striking]. Start small [fixed focus]. You're already planning the variable focus version. Consider adding masks for 6x12 and 6x9, and adding more red windows to facilitate proper frame spacing. On Etsy over 8 people have it in their baskets.

    That's impressive! My current challenge is that I dig the look of large format photography but I'm only willing to handle something as heavy as a Pentacon Six or Pentax 67. Maybe there is a way to build a lens addon that compressed the image circle of a large format lens on a fresnel lens and than getting compressed and thrown at medium format film. I've seen similar things getting done with projection lenses. Maybe this could be an inspiration for one of your future videos :)

  • @ClearComplexity
    @ClearComplexity Před rokem

    I photoscan with a MFT camera all the time, from the E-M5 Mark II years ago, to an E-M1 Mark III now. They all come out with great results when using HiRes shot modes Olympus put in and Panasonic copied with the G9 and now S cameras. I also photoscan with a Pentax KP first and now a K-1 Mark II, both using a Pixel Shift HiRes mode to improve color detail and get less noise. Another use for them is I take digital shots of large paintings for people that want digital backups without scanning large pieces.
    Interesting pano camera, 2 thumbs up for building it and developing the film yourself. I make prints now too after getting a massive discount (free outside of going and getting it) on a solid color enlarger and everything else for developing prints from the college I went to that axed their commercial photography major and the film classes along with it.

    @sr3d-microphones Před rokem

    Night shots taken just before it’s completed dark gives great deep blue skies, they call it something but I can’t remember the term, magic hour or something I think.
    I used to be obsessed with photography and even built a fisheye lens with a load of lenses a local photo shop gave me, used plastersene or however you spell it to fix the lenses in an old lens case.
    Never let your passion die, mine died for photography it is truly alive in binaural audio, I now manufacture binaural microphones 👍

      It is called « L'heure bleu » [blue hour]. Of course there are two: before dawn and after sunset. Today in California: blue hour is 05h58 - 06h33 and 17h42 - 18h17 [35m for both]. In contrast, golden [magic] hour is longer and just after sunrise and just before sunset.
