Hey Mike - I could not figure out how to make this a stand alone topic (maybe only you can do that).
Anyhow for all you other folks - this thread is intended for film users past and present to ask questions and share ideas.
Fill it up!

Hi Kat,
Sorry to about your trouble. It’s been a long time that used B&W film. I’m reasonably sure that your camera is not at fault. I had a Nikon SLR, never had a problem with it. It sounds to me, that the Lab has unintentionally messed up your negatives. Chances are your roll of film got thrown in with the colour processing. Or the film you bought was hopelessly outdated.
Cheers
Manfred

I like Mike's suggestions. I have shot a lot of film since picking up my first 35mm camera a very long time ago. And alas, I have never used the newer B&W C-41 process films.
Another question that comes to mind is - does this happen often, or is it a one off issue?
Other than that I will defer to the other folks.
I do highly recommend talking to the lab where the film was processed and getting their opinion though.

Great question Kat. Here are a few suggestions from a non-film user:
1) Bring in your pictures to our club meeting (this Thursday Apr 27) to show us your pictures and setup we might be able to better understand your situation that way.
2) Q: are you having over exposure problems with other film?
3) Q: if you are using auto exposure how do you have your meter setup? For example, spot vs. area readings may result in different results
4) Q: have you asked your film provider (Gabriele's?) if you need to make any changes to your settings?
Hopefully some of our film pros will see the posting and can shed better light on this topic : )

Great idea-here goes a question-I am a firm believer in "there is no such thing as a silly question" so bear with me as I am asking some very basic questions.I have taken some black and white photos and am finding them very green looking and over exposed, I am shooting on aperature priority and I have a Nikon SLR.The film is c-41 400iso I am having it developed at a regular photo lab.What can I do to clean these shots up? |
