Filmshooting

I would like a Leica camera with a quiet shutter. To short tele lenses though.

I've used leather hand bags and purses for camera bags and blimps.

I found the manual and took a photo of it.

I've purchased chemicals from these three places.

Just today I bought 25 sheets of HARMAN DIRECT POSITIVE RC GLOSSY 8x10 paper for still camera use from http://www.thedarkroom.co.uk

There is also http://www.novadarkroom.com/

I've processed found C-41 film from the 60's and 70's that came out fine. For example below it was an Ilford Sprite 35 bootsale camera. Had no idea who was in the photos though... For a list of 16mm film processors, check out the list of labs over at onsuper8.org Alternatively, if you are in the UK,...

The camcorder will probably pickup the film camera's motor noise, unless you blimp it or place its microphone some distance away. Use a clapper board or have the talent clap their hands to sync the audio visual tracks.

Of particular interest for processing, drying, and editing film, see the scenes starting at five minutes : thirty seconds ( between 5:30 - 7:00) in part 1 of Charlie Chaplin's "How to make movies" from 1918. I can imagine scaling this down from 35mm cine film to smaller gauge 16 or super 8...

"How to make movies", by Charlie Chaplin, 1918. The master film maker shows us how to do it in a silent he made almost a hundred years ago! http://i2.ytimg.com/vi/alMlkcDg5CU/default.jpg How to make movies pt 1 of 2 http://i3.ytimg.com/vi/Z22gyZ5fbhU/default.jpg How to make movies pt 2 of ...

Here is a link I found to a modern instructional video clip on youtube about loading a short roll of still film into an apron processor. Another search result explains a bit of the history of apron processing technique from the 'focal' Photo Guide No.46 (1956) by Percy W Harris ... writes: 'Apron' S...

Put the pix on someplace like the pix below on flickr.com or http://www.tinypic.com, copy it's location to the clipboard, then paste it into the message between the img tag brackets.. These cameras are ready for my Halfling's Thursday Break Dance shoot: http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5095/5506959791...

Found these plans in my book shelf, bought the article clipping on ebay a few years ago. Think I may have posted this on here a while back.. Published in an article from the magazine Popular Mechanics, somewhere between the 1930's and 1950's. You'll need a pretty big bathroom (darkroom)... Sorry 'bo...

To me there seems to be some sort of collective online amnesia regarding apron processing. Anyone have seen a library book about it? Why is it like "the one who's name we must not mention"? It reminds me of the ancient greek gods, who were defeated and dethroned by the "one" god ...

The instructions say keep the film level with the apron, so I guess it's either 16mm or Standard 8 / Regular 8 mm. I was hoping for somebody around here may have seen this or used this and explain it to me...

Yes that's right, John Schwind labels his film cans. I supplied Mr Nowill with empty 25' spools and cans together with my 100 or 400 foot film cans of my own 500T, 50D C41, and 100D E6 films. Haven't done any B&W Kodak or Foma-R yet. We recycle 25' spools and cans. My film cans were embossed wit...
