First Exposures

[aFeinberg]

Well...it's been a few months to say the least. Finally got out to shoot some of my first sheets (4x5 Shen Hao) the second week of Sept. Then sent them to Oahu to be developed. However I did not have access to a proper scanner until tonight. Got the Epson v700 on recommendation. Stoked to finally see what I did. Vaguely remember my process, and of course didnt take notes, but here are the first results. Some curves/levels adjustments to taste. Composing via the gg is a lot more tricky than with digital. Plus the 4x5 format can be a bit awkward sometimes imo. Either way I look forward to shooting more and getting a better handle on the camera. Shots are Ilford 125 and Fuji Quickload 100 (though dont know which is which :P).

Used my Nikon D800 to 'meter'/chimp as I figured the film has a better DR than the digital I was close enough it seems.

Appreciate the help getting to this point and look forward to being a part of the community
