Hunter “Man-On-The-Street” White interviews none other than Mister Dave Bias. If you’re thinking the name is familiar then you’re right! Dave has moved on from his role in the Impossible Project and has joined up with the team at Film Ferrania!<br />

The Italian Film manufacturer is making a comeback! The massive factory complex that was shut down back in 2010 is slowly being prepared to start producing film again! They’re hoping to get a small batch of stock ready for the near future! Dave is excited, considering that unlike Impossible that had to scrounge up equipment and material, Ferrania was basically mothballed and saved intact by the Italian Government who has played a major role in getting the factory up off the ground.<br />

The goal is to get one the only four fully self-contained film manufacturing plant back up and running, the team has been working around the clock to make sure the equipment can be run constantly. So what product is going to be coming out, slide film of course, the one thing that has really fallen by the wayside with only Fuji producing new stocks of Chrome films. The first off the line will be an ASA-100 film, which is based on the Scotch Chrome formula, but there are plans to bring 400 and possibly 3200 speeds into the market. Format wise they’re working with 35mm and 120 in still photography along with Super 8 and 16mm for motion picture.

<strong>Impossible Project Update!</strong><br />
FPP Super-friend Dan, better known as <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/nano_burger/">Nano_Burger on Flickr</a> had a chance to check out this year’s <a href="http://www.photokina.com/en/photokina/home/index.php">Photokina</a> event in Germany and managed to snag a pair of interviews with some of the dealers. First up is Danny, the PR guy from the Berlin office of the Impossible project brings some updates. First off is a twist on the classic square with their round-frame 600 film.<br />
<br />
<div class="rtecenter">

<div class="rtecenter">

<div class="rtecenter">
<em><br /></em></div>
If you remember the Instant Lab, which allows you to print photos from your smart phone screen onto Impossible Project Film - they’re bringing a new version to market to work with Android phones, Tablets, and the iPhone 6.<br />
<br />
<div class="rtecenter">

<div class="rtecenter">
<em><br /></em></div>
In the film stock category, new formulas for their 8x10 PQ line of films and an improved colour formula will be coming out as well which features shorter development time! Also, a new B&W film that doesn’t require shielding! The most exciting news is that they’re finally bringing their camera to market! Yes a brand new camera designed for Impossible film will be out Summer of 2015!!<br />
<br />
<strong>FoJo, You Know!</strong><br />
A rather unique idea, the guys at FoJo are in the manufacturing stage of making a new enlarger that is driven by your smart phone. That’s right, using your smart phone to project a digital negative through a lens and onto traditional paper and make prints!<br />
<br />
<div class="rtecenter">
<img alt="" src="http://filmphotographyproject.com/sites/default/files/uploads/content/FPPpodcast/FPP_110/2014_10_01_fpp110_IMG_5296.jpg" style="height: 640px; width: 470px;" /></div>
<div class="rtecenter">
<em>above: The Fo Jo!!!</em></div>
<div class="rtecenter">
<em><br /></em></div>
They even have an app that will allow you to tweak the image in phone before printing, or using traditional techniques. Best part, it also works on regular 35mm and 120 film, and uses your phone as the light source. The enlarger alone costs 200$ or get it with trays and a safelight to really get started for 300$. They’re not ready yet, so sign up at: <a href="http://www.fojo.me/">www.fojo.me</a> to pre-order or get the latest news!<br />

<strong>Making Kodak Film – The Book!</strong><br />
Ever wondered how Kodak makes their superb line-up of film? Want to know about the complexities behind the K-14 process and Kodachrome films? Then the book of the month is for you! Making Kodak Film by Robert L. Shanebrook is now into its second printing! Mat says this is the perfect book for the science heads or just those interested in the process behind film, want to order the book head over to: <a href="http://www.makingkodakfilm.com/">www.makingkodakfilm.com</a> to put in an order!<br />

<strong><br /></strong>
<strong>For the Love of TLR Cameras!</strong><br />
Bringing back the TLR love from Episode 109 but now with the addition of Mat and Leslie! Both of them are big fans of the camera, great way to shoot medium format and certainly have style. Leslie even has a <a href="http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/Rolleiflex_Automat_Model_3">Rolleiflex Automat</a>, one of the first TLRs to feature automatic frame counters rather than the old red/green window. The Automats were produced between 1937 and 1957. Leslie loves to shoot architecture with them. Plus the 6x6 format works great if you want to post film shots to your Instagram account!<br />

<strong>Photak Foldex 120 and 620! What!?</strong><br />
Mark shows off a recent flea market purchase, part of a massive 15$ lot of accessories and cameras, the Foldex 20 by Pho-Tak is basically a medium format folding box camera. A fixed focus 105mm with fixed aperture and shutter speed. For a box camera it has some interesting features, an M-Sync’d hotshoe and the most unique part…it takes both 120 and 620 film, without need for adapters or changing settings.<br />

This past August I had a lovely opportunity to spend an
entire week with loved ones in beautiful Ocean City, New Jersey. You might
think that my day-to-day vocation of working/shooting film and producing The
Film Photography Podcast had me a wee-bit burnt out on shooting film – no way!</div>

opportunity to shoot some new-to-me film stocks and some cameras I have yet to
handle. Here are a few examples of the images I shot.</span><br />

It's always a blast to get my hands on a new-to-me film stock, especially if it's something special! Enter <b>Eastman Double-X Negative Film 5222 - </b>designed for general production use outdoors and in the studio, in dim
light, and anywhere you need greater depth of field without increased
illumination. This high-speed camera negative film has excellent
image-structure characteristics.<br />

<b>There are a growing number of still shooters using motion
picture film in their still cameras - specially Eastman Double-X as it
can be developed in traditional BW chemistry and the film has no "rem
jet" layer that has been an issue with the Vision color motion picture
films.</b><br />
<br />
According to Project Double X online, <i>"...it is the look of
Double-X that makes it that little bit special and with users exposing
it at and beyond its designed exposure index and in various developers,
the images it produces are beautifully rich in tones and clarity.</i><br />
<i>Motion picture films using the Eastman B&W film stock
include: Schindler's List (1993), Memento (2000), Kafka (1991), I'm Not
There (2007).</i><br />

Fall 2012 Photo Walk with my Canon T60 shooting Kodak Ektachrome 400HC color slide film (expired 01/1994).<br />
<br />
Guessing that this film was stored in a sock drawer at various temperatures throughout the years. Some color shift and lots of added grain. Expired film - Best to over expose your shots 1 f-stop for every decade the film has aged.<br />
<br />
Below: More images from the same roll of expired Ektachrome. <br />

Use it or Lose It!<br />
Always best to shoot or exercise your camera. <br />
<br />
After my trusty Canon FT has been sitting for a year, I decided to take it out for a spin this weekend. Sporting a Canon 19mm FL lens and CVS 400 color print film I hit a snag. <br />
<br />
At the higher shutter speeds (1/250th and above) the film curtain was only exposing part of the frame (top shot). The bottom shot was exposed using 1/30th.<br />
<br />
Could it be the cold weather, lack of use or both. No such problems in the past.<br />
<br />
Flickr member "AgfaPan-25" says - <br />
"If the camera has not been used for a long time the shutter might be a little sticky, and repeatability firing the shutter may sort this out."<br />
<br />

Images from one of my last shoots (June 2010) using Kodak Kodachrome color reversal film. "<b>Kodachrome</b> is a type of color <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reversal_film" title="Reversal film">reversal film</a> introduced by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastman_Kodak" title="Eastman Kodak">Eastman Kodak</a> in 1935<sup>.</sup><sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Basin_2-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kodachrome#cite_note-Basin-2"></a></sup> It was one of the first successful color materials and was used for both cinematography and still photography. Because of the widespread transition to digital photography, Kodachrome lost its market
share and its manufacturing was discontinued in 2009 and its processing
ended in 2010."<br />

<br />
It's smooth, dreamy tones are a bit different than anything I've shot recently on BW film.<br />

It ain't called cult for nuthin'!<br />
<br />
"The EE (Electric Eye) feature and viewfinder were made as small as possible and the internal construction was completely different from the original Canonet, making the QL17 a totally new model. However, it had a strong Canonet-like appearance. The "QL" stood for "Quick Loading," a feature which made film loading quick and easy. At first, "Quick Loading" was inscribed below the Canon logo. It was later replaced by "QL." <br />

<br />
<i>With its FAST f1.7 lens, the QL17 is the perfect camera for night
photography. Load it up with fast film or switch the camera into manual
mode and shoot the night away!

"The classic little rangefinder that punches above its weight. In the 1970′s the Canonet became a household name, with over a million units sold. So let’s have a look and see why this camera became one of the best selling fixed lens rangefinders ever made."<br />

<br />
"Originally sold in 1965 the QL stands for "Quick Loading" -- you don't have to wind the film around the take up spool, it's very similar to today's "drop and load" cameras. You put the film in, close the back and wind away. "<br />

<br />
"The Canonet QL17 (new) represents the prized and popular side of the sought-after compact rangefinders; to be sure, its 1972 successor, the oft-touted GIII version is often mentioned in the same breath as the Konica S3, Minolta 7sII, Olympus 35SP, and the Rollei 35*. "<br />

I Purchased a 1951 Kodak Tourist II film camera that had an exposed roll of Kodak Verichrome Pan film in it. From the looks of the processed image, the film was sitting in the camera about 60 years.<br />

I purchased what I thought were light-proof black bags online in order to ship 4x5 sheet film for processing.<br /><br />
Surprise, surprise..I checked the black bag description..."These plastic bags are not light-tight by themselves." YIKES! Make sure your bags are light tight before sending exposed film to the processing lab!<br /><br />Pictured: Dane of The Smoove Sailors (an American Improv Rock 'n Roll band)<br /><a href="http://www.thesmoovesailors.com/" rel="nofollow">www.thesmoovesailors.com/</a><br />May 2012 / Jersey City NJ USA rehearsal space<br /><br />photo by Michael Raso<br />Graflex Crown Graphic press camera<br />Kodak Ektar 100 4x5 sheet film<br /><br />I host the The Film Photography Podcast Internet Radio Show - <a href="http://filmphotographyproject.com/podcast" target="_blank">http://filmphotographyproject.com/podcast </a>Michael Rasohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12234532261659261900noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3591231784199984451.post-32444354722498712002012-08-20T10:41:00.001-04:002012-08-20T10:44:57.935-04:00VHS - The Analog Revolution<div style="font-size: 0.8em; line-height: 1.6em; margin: 0 0 10px 0; padding: 0;">
