The new medium format cam I have is an old Rolleicord. I'm not sure of the exact model off the top of my head.

Thanks for the reference looks like it's a Rolleicord III K3B.

Though I figure I should mention the first picture I posted was looking down on my brother's mamiya rb67. It jammed after a few shots and I've never gotten that film back.

Everybody street is pretty good, yeah. Worth renting off vimeo if you are interested. I really coundn't care less about recent wake of photographers shooting whatever in street, pushing contrast to the max and calling it street photography but the real good ones are very good.

Nice stuff 56. Your blog has a lot of good shots.

I really coundn't care less about recent wake of photographers shooting whatever in street, pushing contrast to the max and calling it street photography but the real good ones are very good.

agree 100% with this. i think good street photographers are like 1/100, maybe even fewer. its definitely a hard thing to be good at, and i always get really excited when i find someone who shoots street shots exceptionally well. i think a lot of people are drawn to it because it sounds cool though. add the word street in front of anything and it becomes edgy and cool.


tubulishoomaroom, your stuff has be so sick lately!

I definitely recommend Everybody Street. Jill Freedman, Boogie, Bruce Gilden, so many good photographers in it. It definitely gives me some good inspiration before I go out to shoot.

Them bodies in the vacants.
That's actually the thing that makes me the most nervous while shooting in Baltimore. Not necessarily bodies in vacants, but with thousands of abandoned rowhomes, there's gotta people in a lot of them. So when I think I'm in a quiet, deserted block, who knows how many crackheads, dealers, etc. are literally 10 feet away from me.

Hello Slap Pals, I recently (finally) was able to get a film camera and was wondering where the best places are to get the film developed? It's 35mm (400 color)  if that makes a difference?

Thanks guys!

Where are you located? I have a local place here in Baltimore, but when I'm sending out, there's Citizens in Portland, Oregon and Dwayne's Photo in Kansas. Citizens is moving spaces right now so I'm not sure when they're accepting film again, but I've heard Dwayne's does a good job.

If that sending out business just ain't for you, there's always CVS, Costco, or any of those places that'll do it on the cheap. Just be weary that they tend to do a worse job at it in the sense that they may cut your film strips poorly, dirty up your negs, etc. I still have a lot of friends who are perfectly fine with the chain store development and swear by it.

i send mine to mpix.com. they will send envelopes to your house, then you just mail your film back to them. id recommend it if youre shooting a pretty large amount of film and want to save a few bucks. cvs is ok, but nobody working there is going to be a photo expert, nor will they give a shit about your film, so you tend to get crappy scans from there, and since they dont know what theyre doing and their equipment is always broken, it can take them a really long time to finish your order. where i am, they typically charge anywhere from $8-10 to develop and scan your film, which in my opinion is pretty expensive. the last time i went though mpix, i got 12 rolls developed, scanned, and put on a disc for around $85-90, which compared to cvs is a huge discount. the process can be a little bit confusing, but if you decide to go with them and need help, you can PM me.

theres plenty of options out there if you look around. im sure anything cadillac mentioned is a good bet too. id say if you're paying more than $10 a roll, keep looking. especially if you're just starting out.

Was looking to get some pointers, I recently got a canon eos 33 (i think they also call it a canon elan 7). It's my first film camera and I was hoping to get some pointers when shooting with film. Also any recommendations on what kind of film to buy? I'm new to this and just been shooting with my dslr. Also I was given these two argus cameras. Not sure the model of the top of my head but they're very old. Was wondering if anybody knew anything about them as I'd like to shoot with this camera as well.

id recommend cheap film for starting out. look on ebay or amazon and see if you can find some kodak gold 200 or kodak ultramax 400 for cheap. if you look around, you can find that stuff for under $3 a roll, and its not bad for what its worth. i like fuji superia 400 and 800 too. those tend to run a bit more expensive, but are still pretty cheap. i wouldnt spend your money on anything thats going to cost you more than $5 until you know what youre doing. also, if youre using a camera thats pretty cheap, or the lens is old and dirty, its my opinion that putting expensive professional level film through gear like that is a waste of money.

the biggest thing youre going to want to look for is whether or not youre cameras work before you load any film in them. if you dont know how to do that, set the camera on manual mode, open the aperture as wide as it goes, and set the camera on a long shutter speed, then open the back of the camera so you can look through the lens from the back and fire the shutter. if you see it open, good. then set it for a faster shutter speed and do the same thing. if its noticeably a faster shutter, youre good. now go back to a slower speed, but close the aperture down and fire it again. if you can see that the aperture is stopping down, then everything is good. if the camera doesnt have manual controls, open it up and fire the shutter in different lighting conditions. if you see that the camera is adjusting to the light correctly, your fine. its also a good idea to put new batteries in the camera if its really old. i dont have any experience with any of the cameras you listed, but google and youtube are your friends.
