Lamp Still Life

ACTUAL FILM BLEACH BYPASS NOT DIGITAL

 

I like how this shot came up in the cheap lens when I was testing it with a digital cam. Shot with voigtlander Bessa T and testing cheap toy lens, 32mm fixed focus f/10,

 

C41 bleach bypass test.

Old Fuji 100 12 exposure. Shot at ISO 100. Could have underexposed a bit. Developed in Fuji CN-16 N1-MV developer.

 

Imagine 3:15 minutes in developer and 8 minutes fix. All done. Well sorta. I borrowed this process from theoldcameraguy youtu.be/YRHdmLDbGec

 

Presoak 100f degrees for 3 min

C41 at 38C for 3:15

rinse 1:30 min

Fix (ilford hypam 1:4) 8 minutes

Wash ...

Fotoflow.

 

recommended underexposure 1 to 2 stops your mileage may vary, these were not underexposed.

 

Scanning: These were dense and I expected trouble in the Canon 9000F. I was right. Vuescan could pull up the images but they were very speckled and mottled. I scanned them anyway as color negatives at 4800 DPI and 48 Bit RGB. I was expecting disappointment but here are the results.

 

The raw scans were black and in photoshop I had to boost the exposure and the brightness to 100% each to get the image. I adjusted the colors in the histograms where necessary and opened the images. Usually they were somewhat washed but there was color. Allowing for auto levels, auto contrast, and auto colors, usually gave great results.
