Good start there with a very familiar camera.
As mentioned in the "I just picked up...." thread I set out last weekend to test the newly acquired Zorki 10. I loaded an Adox CHS 100 II film and shot a few frames on every ISO setting on the camera. I used the auto setting and expected the worst since a selenium meter that is 50 years old is very likely to be way off if it works at all. To my pleasant surprise the camera produced images at all settings, but as expected the ISO 20 shots were blurry due to camera shake. The best results came around ISO 160 and 250. Here are some of the shots, the ISO setting is in the picture titles.

Love that opening shot, Fluminian.

Violating my self-imposed one-shot-per-weekend-thread rule because these sort of go together, but it's not a large enough set to really qualify as a photo essay. Taken on a recent weekend trip in Massachusetts. Ilford Craftsman, Ektar.

Last weekend we had a meeting of film wasting photographers in Würzburg.

On this location I noticed 3 young women taking picures of each other and I couldn't resist to ask if one of them would be my model. I was lucky.

I really like that sailboat shot Fluminian. I just recently got my View-Master film back from the lab and put the reels together. It usually takes me about a year to go thru one roll of 36 exposure film which produces about 70 stereo pairs. These are some pumpkins on my porch for halloween. I used a 36-inch Close-up attachment for this shot.

And it looks even better when you use StereoPhotoMaker http://stereo.jpn.org/eng/stphmkr/index.html

Now I need to find some 3D glasses. I have the polarizing ones that work with my View-Master projector but I'm not sure if I have the red/blue type.

Easier to just cross your eyes. That pumpkin picture works really well in 3D.

Francois · « **Reply #11 on:** January 29, 2017, 02:53:47 PM »

Somehow this trick never worked for me. So one day I got tired of the crappy cardboard glasses I had and just ordered a pair of good ones on eBay. The ones I got were built big enough that most eyeglass wearers can use them.

hookstrapped · « **Reply #12 on:** January 29, 2017, 03:11:30 PM »

Or do away with the glasses completely and just shoot through an old petzval lens -- instant 3D

From the night I met up with Satish. Shooting Fuji Eterna 500T at 800 in the Pentax K1000. I dev'd this at room temp for 25 minutes.

I can't seem to make the eye crossing thing work, now I have a headache. The close-up attachment seems to exaggerate the 3D effect a little.

I just ordered a pair of glasses like that, I really want to see how it looks on the computer screen. I'm sure it won't be as good as the real thing though.

It for sure won't be as good as on a viewmaster that's for sure. The viewmasters were really hard to beat for 3D.
But the anaglyphs are definitely not that bad. You do loose color saturation and the 3D effect is sometimes strange but still, it's really not that bad and so easy to do with the right program (it took me months to find this one and it's definitely one of the rare ones that are really worth the download)

From last night...
I used a Nikon F2 with a 1.2 Nikkor lens shot at f/2
Film was Ilford FP4 125
I had the camera on a tripod with no tracking for about 40 seconds with my camera/lens and film combo.
I forgot my timer, so counted one hippopotamus, two hippopotami,
three hippopotami..etc. etc. up to 40 hippos to time my photo. Sounds
silly...but it works for me, plus I have a tendency to count slow so I
have an added reciprocity factor built in.

Anyway, I snipped out the exposed frames in a dark bag this morning
and then developed the film in Arista Premium 1+9 for about 5.5 mins.

Nice.... I usually count photographers instead

I do enjoy a bit of nighttime photography.
I bet you're pleased with those.

Beautiful shot Becky!

Very cool!
I can free view it and it is great!!
My husband bought me the Brian May book " A Village Lost and found" for Christmas and I've been toying with stereographs since late December.

Francois · « **Reply #22 on:** January 31, 2017, 10:03:18 PM »

I really need to build myself a stereograph viewer...

Bryan · « **Reply #23 on:** January 31, 2017, 10:06:32 PM »

Thanks Becky, I looked up that book, it looks interesting. They have new and used versions of it on Amazon but I bet the the used ones don't have the viewer included.
