Cinestill images

[chassis]

Post your images using Cinestill film! I searched the site and found only two images that use this film. What speed are people rating it?

My intent with this thread was to share images made with motion picture film in still cameras. So this could be with Kodak Vision 3 / 500T, and other manufacturers' motion picture emulsions exposed in still cameras.

Here is my favorite (shot on Cinestill 800T):

Nice image mjork. The blacks and reds of this film are interesting.

Nice one. I am interested in what folks are shooting with this, having received the 4x5 film from the Cinestill Indiegogo campaign.

I am going to Paris in june and thats all I will shoot at night, i have tested it at home and it works very well. You can also buy some kodak 50D and 250D vision film in 35mm, 36 rolls from Nick & Trik photo in the Uk. You just have to remove the anti-halation layer. They have a how to guide for you to follow, as long as you home develop.They are really nice guys. Shooting cinestill in the city that never sleeps will be great.

Here's the link.

For this one, I went "old school" and used a Vivitar 70-150mm F/3.8 manual focus lens, rather than the usual autofocus Nikon 70-200mm F/2.8 VRII.

Nikon F5, Cinestill 50D, Vivitar 70-150mm F/3.8, Hensel studio strobe with a 48" octabox about 4-5 feet to camera left.

Nice compositions and colors!

...and sold!

Im going to try this at 120 next!
Looks nicer than Kodak Ektar in some ways.

How does it scan, does it need much colour correction adjustments?

The only thing i did to this scan is spot removal and maybe a little saturation increase. The light was very good though. I have 10 rolls of Cinestill 50 on order and looking forward to trying that out.

Here's an image made on the newly-released CineStill 400Dynamic, in 35mm. Please view, at full-size. The exif data is in the file, via Meta 35. It seems like it holds the shadow detail fairly well. I suspect I will continue use Portra 400 when I need a 400 speed negative/print film, though. Any thoughts?

Some random thoughts :

It is highly unlikely that outside of a fairly small film using community anybody would look at an (not "the") image and ask "what kind of film this image was taken on?".

The actual medium does not matter in a sense that it is generally not true that images taken on medium X will always be superior to images taken on medium Y, unless the said images were taken for the purpose of comparison of mediums' [physical] properties or advertisement of medium's properties. Usage of IR sensitive films almost want me to make an exception, but in reality it does not [qualify to make such exception]...

"Sinestill this, sinestill that"... What is wrong with using Portra or Ektar or any other color film that was specifically designed for still color photography?

Some people choose to pay more for what appears to be less (no anti-halation layer, sub optimal processing)

What is wrong with using Portra or Ektar or any other color film that was specifically designed for still color photography?

Ektar / Portra are wonderful indeed. However, for 10 sheets of Portra 400 in a box, my local dealer in Berlin charges 109.50€. That is 118.72$ approximately as of today, or roundabout 12$ per sheet of 4x5 film. The 8x10 costs 43$ per sheet. They're on sale right now. Normally the price is 45$ per sheet.

First rolls freshly developed Eastman Double-X XX 120 in Plaubel Makina 6.5x9cm Film Back. Plaubel Peco Junior View Camera 150mm F9 Apo Ronar with Broncolor C200 Octobox 150 Lighting. D23 1:1 JOBO Multitank 5 (six roll capacity) Unicolor Uniroller. 12 minutes at 68F. Beefy looking negatives as I am used to with 35mm XX. These will all be easy to print with the usually XX qualities but in the superior larger format. Bravo to the Creator of this! More coming I like this film. Olde 6.5x9cm Plaubel Makina 120 Back is playing nice too :) Two at F22 and two at F16, to give myself a choice.
