How I invert my negatives in Darktable using Negadoctor

I recently put up a video on my YouTube channel about my scanning process (avalible here). In it, I shortly show Darktable, and how I invert the images there. I have since inverted a few more images with Darktable, and figured out a workflow for myself. I thought I would share it with you here … Continue reading “How I invert my negatives in Darktable using Negadoctor”

I was wrong about the Essential Film Holder, and why I decided to re-edit an video

If you’ve been following me on YouTube, you might have noticed I just removed a video to then re-upload it. I edited out a part about the filmholders I use to scan negatives. This is down to a mistake on my part, and I felt it was a big enough mistake to warrant me to … Continue reading “I was wrong about the Essential Film Holder, and why I decided to re-edit an video”

About reciprocity failure (BnW Film)

In my last YouTube video (found here), I mentioned something about reciprocity failure. For photographers, reciprocity means that we generally need to add some time to our exposure when we exceed exposure times of 1s. This is only relevant for film photography. I won’t go into the technical details about what happens. That’s what Wikipedia … Continue reading “About reciprocity failure (BnW Film)”

However, not everything survives the final cuts, and sometimes, you just plain old forget to mention things. Therefore, I wish to clarify and add some things I didn’t mention in … Continue reading “YouTube Clarifications, Large format gear & cost”

Last chance for HP5, Youtube companion post

I recently put up a video on my youtube channel. Go watch it if you haven’t! I don’t have too much to add to the video, more than that I’m still not convinced about HP5. I’m going to try Delta 400 next, and the search continues for my default 400 ISO – film. I haven’t … Continue reading “Last chance for HP5, Youtube companion post”

Some thought about the FujiFilm X-H2 | YouTube companion post

I recently bought the mythical, the magical, FujiFilm X-H2. 8k recording, 40 Mpix, F-log2 and all the other stuff I don’t really care for. I do firmly belive most cameras from the last 5-10 years are more than good enough for landscape photography and photography in general.
