Whew, I got quite a few shots from this roll, but am going to narrow it
down to these, plus the ones I posted on the trollsview thread:
dev'd in HC-110B, 7.5 mins, 20C
I'm really liking this Arista film. I'll be ordering Fomadan R09 (Rodinal
equivalent) and see how I do with that. |

Yes very nice shots. There's a hint of a hint of vignetting but nothing nearly as bad as I get with the Yashica T4's Tessar.
The flatness of tone is most likely in the scanning, depending on subject a slight curves adjustment often does wonders... which I don't have available on Elements, so I often dup the photo and blend it back in 'soft light' mode. When the photo calls for it.

Hummm, I think where I went wrong is not putting the contrast back in
when I ran the files through Bibble. I lower the contrast there to get rid
of the flash/bright marks the software puts in the picture (along with
exposure control). I usually hit it with contrast when cleaning up the file
in PSE 4.
Jussi, there's a Smart Curve plugin for PSE you need to download. It's
free:

Thanks for your comments, guys. |

Martin and Eeyore, thanks, thought this thread was dead.
I emailed Jussi the Smart Curve plugin using my POP3 account (Gmail
doesn't like sending zip files). If anyone uses Photoshop Elements and
wants this plugin, LMK, and I can email it to you.
Martin, the cat makes a handy model on rainy, crappy days, like today. |

Bill, I would LOVE to get the Smart Curves plugin.

The images are about as clean as I could ever see with black and white film. Gorgeous, with no perceptible grain.
