Emil, I tried to look up the film & found nothing. I can see why you like it. Would you have a link to the mfr page for the film? Seems like a winner.

My fault - I misspelled (difficult to remember two letters.. :) )

It is FO5

I got the 4x5" from Macodirect in Germany ( https://www.macodirect.de/en/film/black-und-white-films/?p=1&o=1&n=36&s=108 )- but have other formats from Banse und Grohmann GmbH. ( wephota.de)

Sorry about that..

Emil, Thank You so much. I'd not heard of Wephota before, but the results look wonderful. I was able to find Euro sources - perhaps we'll see it over here (US) some day. I appreciate your kind help.

Since the FO5 is a very technical film, be aware of some accidents :-)

Shot with my new-to-me Tele-Xenar 360mm. Mell is a Burlesque performer so I was trying to give the effect of her being on stage by using a gridded medium reflector as a spotlight. I quite like the effect and think I'll refine it and explore this style a bit more.

Amanda and Mimi

Taken with my new Intrepid 4x5. It's a cheaply made camera, I know. But as a non-professional 20-something, the price was right for me.

It's never the gear ... it's the photographer ... and you've made a beautiful portrait!

Film, lens, aperture?

thanks jim! shot at f/16, 1/8s. 210mm caltar, tmax 100 tray developed with HC110 dilution B.

I'd taken 4 shots during this session and this is the only one that didn't scare Mimi and make her move!

This is excellent Antonio. She's being a good model. You're keenly aware of the background and where the subject fits into the scene. Keep it up.

Hi Emil!
I never could tame the contrast of that film: may I ask which speed and which developer you used?
