This week, I'm at Broadwater Warren Nature Reserve in Kent with my 4x5 large format camera. I photograph a clump of five conifer trees using Fomapan black and white film and a red filter early in the morning.
Later, I try to find a composition at Eridge Rocks - a place with giant sandstone boulders and a Site of Specific Scientific Interest due to the community of plants growing on them.
I processed the film in my SP445 tank. The Fomapan was developed in Ilford ID11 (1+1) for 10 mins and the Ektar was dev'd using the Tetenal C41 kit.

You commented four is an odd number, four was much used in medieval city planning, four wards and its centre, but since at least the Iron Age the number three was considered to be importqant, it is a formulaic number; 3, 6, 9, etc. which was much used in divisional space.

Hey Craig, I'm just commenting to say I'm not a big fan of your landscapes but the last shot in the video already had something more interesting to show. The left part of the composition feels very flat, almost like it was a backdrop in a zoo. Just a penny ;)

Craig, your metering is right on. Good work. I like the 5 conifer shot, with the use of a red filter to add some separation to the sky. I shot a few sheets of 4x5 film this weekend in similar conditions, but did have some early morning sunlight to work with. I'd say you did a great job, with the light you had to work with. I do miss Barney!

@EwanDunsmuirImages 5 лет назад
Well done Craig. I smile watching you work. I laughed to myself as i remembered that if it were digital, you would just shoot shoot shoot, but the large format, makes you super economical with the shutter. I had also forgotten how much DR the old film cameras have. Image 2 with the dark shadow under the rock.... Detail! Regards Ewan
@CraigPrentisPhoto
@CraigPrentisPhoto 5 лет назад
Hi Ewan, I often wish I had a bit more flexibility in the amount I shoot and using digital would solve that. But shooting film does come at a cost and there's also the developing and scanning to take into consideration too, which all adds time to these trips out. I'm also limited with my lens choice which is sometimes frustrating too. I may start shooting a bit more digital alongside the film stuff as it will allow me to work a scene a bit more and doing a side by side comparison with any film shots would be interesting. You're right too about the dark shadow under the rock. It was seriously dark under there but there's a good bit of detail in the neg. All the best.

Great job Craig! Loving the Fomapan, i switch to Foma 400 myself to put it true my OM1 an Canonet 28. The HP5 is great but so expensive over here in the Netherlands, Foma is halve cheaper and looks beautiful if you ask me. Great photos, i love your landscapes, hope to see Barney again next time. Greetings, depressed shutter.
@CraigPrentisPhoto

Thanks very much. Yes, I've only ever used Fomapan 100 and 200 and like them both. Good price too. Hopefully, Barney will be back for the next one. Cheers.

Both images work well, interesting use of iso for filter allowance. Any allowance for the Reciprocity on Ektar? Colour holds well for 15sec.
@CraigPrentisPhoto
@CraigPrentisPhoto 5 лет назад
Not a lot. I checked out the reciprocity for Ektar and saw that it was good for 15 secs. As I was metering just over 8 secs, I just gave it a couple more and went for 10 secs.

Mate greta work, I am still debating between a Toy or a Hasselblad. I know they very defferent in format but weight is of the essence as I travel a lot. I have looked into a Mamiya 7 but the pricers are exorbitant ! How do you find lagging a 4x5 around do you travel with it ?Thanks, Dominique.
@CraigPrentisPhoto
@CraigPrentisPhoto 5 лет назад
My MPP is heavy at over 3kg and that's without the extra stuff like film holders, meter, filters, dark cloth etc. So it's slow work but if that's what I'm fancying that day, that's how it is. The Mamiya is expensive and holds its value very well. At the moment, I only have one lens for it and funding other lenses would be a struggle, but at least it keeps my workflow simple. It's portable, light and the results are excellent. Only you can decide what is right for you but whatever you go with, I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

@dominiquepierre-nina6120 5 лет назад
Hi thanks for the reply . When shooting in the fog do you over expose +1 or 2 stops? Because I've noticed your shots are clean and mine seam on the grainy side Thanks, Dominique .@@CraigPrentisPhoto
@CraigPrentisPhoto
@CraigPrentisPhoto 5 лет назад
@@dominiquepierre-nina6120 yes, it's a bit like photographing in snowy conditions. In the fog, the camera's meter will often tell you it's brighter than it is so I find it's best to over expose. I prefer to spot meter for the darkest part in the scene and stop down 1-2 stops from there - that will be my exposure. With b&w or colour neg you'll be fine over exposing.
@dominiquepierre-nina6120
@dominiquepierre-nina6120 5 лет назад
