2 test strips from the weekend
I’ve got my shooting/developing/printing down to where with Fuji Rembrant V G2 paper I can get a good exposure with about any negative at f16 at 15 seconds. If the neg is contrasty the zero filter will come out for 15 seconds, and then the regular light for another 15. Just to check though I usually use a test strip (or two or three) before I make my Real Print. These test strips are of guys in Tokyo with a camera, just two of probably a dozen or two you might see on the weekend on the streets of Tokyo. The fedora man with a Barnack Leica was in Aoyama, and the DSLR Gaijin was walking around Shibuya as conspicuous and cool as possible.
If you notice a difference in tones that is because one was shot in Medium format and the other in 35mm.
I’d like to put the full pictures up on here, but they are a little larger than my entire scanner, and I don’t have anything to scan film. Maybe something can get worked out here soon.
