There has been an underlying assumption that because humans are so inherently flexible and adaptable, it is easier to let them adapt themselves to the machine, rather than vice versa.
Developers traditionally have been more comfortable working with the seemingly ‘‘black and white,’’ scientific, concrete issues associated with systems, than with the more gray, muddled, ambiguous issues associated with human beings.
Developers have historically been hired and rewarded not for their interpersonal, ‘‘people’’ skills but for their ability to solve technical problems.
The most important factor leading to the neglect of human needs has been that in the past, designers were developing products for end users who were much like themselves.
There was simply no reason to study such a familiar colleague.

Another bad day weather wise so time to brew up a new batch. The milk containers are HDPE plastic and are stored in a secure, dedicated area of the garage well away from the kitchen. They are suitable for chemicals and CHEAP. I store in the dark. 40 rolls or 3 months life I estimate, which do you think comes first ?

Adox Scala 50 film in négative processing:
After testing the high-resolution and ultra-fine gain film Adox HR-50 processed with the fine-grain developer Adox Atomal 49, I would like to compare with the Adox Scala 50 that likely the same formula but commercially intended to be processed with a reversal chemistry. I tried this chemistry past year but, unfortunately the bleaching bath was degraded and I obtained incompletely bleached positives that I reported here: flic.kr/s/aHBqjBCCha. The Scala 50 could be however processed as a normal negative using the same processing times and developer as recommended by Adox for HR-50.
For testing Scala 50 as a negative, I picked up for a second time my newly arrived exceptional French 35mm camera FOCA Universel RC (see below for details about this rare and fascinating camera), I went for photowalk at Port Rambaud, along.the Saône river bank, Lyon, France. The weather was very fair with gentle clouds in a nice blue Skye with a mild outdoor temperature (28°C).
I mounted on my FOCA the OPLAREX lens 1:1.9 f=5cm equipped with a yellow filter FOCA x2.5. The OPLAR /OPLAREX lenses for the FOCA’s only accept push-on filter (42.5mm in this specific case). A vintage Genaco cylindric stainless-steel shade hood conceived for a 5cm focal length was also used all along the session.
Expositions were determined for 32 ISO to compensate the absorption of the yellow filter (not the x2.5 coefficient due to the enhanced sensitivity of the film in the yellow). Metering was achieved using a Minolta Autometer III lightmeter fitted with a 10° finder for selective metering privileging the shadow areas, but too much to avoid high-lights saturation, or also in the incident-light mode with the integrating opal dome of the Autometer.
Most of the views were taken at 1/50s to 1/200s and f/5.6 to f/9 apertures.
Port Rambaud - La Confluence***, July 31, 2025
69002 Lyon
France
_____________________
*** Port Rambaud is a former river port in Lyon, on the Saône, located in the Confluence district at the end of the peninsula between the Saône and Rhône rivers up to the Pont de la Mulatière. The construction of the port was decided in 1909 but work was frozen during the First World War and only completed in 1926. Initially 500 m long, it was first extended in 1929 to the Pont de la Mulatière, reaching 1,000 m in 1953, allowing 16,000 m3 of hydrocarbons to be stored. From 1985, the activities of the Rambaud port were transferred to the new Édouard-Herriot port on the Rhône and the Rambaut port was closed in 1991. The old port became a concerted development zone to create the new "La Confluence" district where post-modernist architectural projects.
In 2014 was opened the Musée des Confluences (French pronunciation: [myze de kɔ̃flyɑ̃s]) a science centre and anthropology museum l ocated at the southern tip of the Presqu'île at the confluence of the Rhône and the Saône, adjacent to the A7 highway Paris-Marseille. The museum was designed in the deconstructivist architectural style, said to resemble a floating crystal cloud of stainless steel and glass, and was created by the Austrian firm Coop Himmelb(l)au.
______________________
After completion at view Nr. 38, the film was rewound normally and processed using 400 mL of stock solution of Adox Atomal 49 developer for 8min30 at 20°C.
Digitizing was made using a Sony A7 camera (ILCE-7, 24MP) fitted to a Minolta Auto Bellows III with the Minolta slide duplication accessory and Minolta Macro Bellow lens 1:3.5 f=50mm. The diffuse light source was a LED panel CineStill Cine-lite.
The RAW files obtained were inverted within the latest version available of Adobe Lightroom Classic (version 14.4) and edited to the final jpeg pictures without intermediate file. They are presented either as printer files with a frame or the full size JPEG's together with some documentary smartphone color pictures.
About the camera and its history :
Among the French 35mm camera produced by « Optique & Précision de Levallois S.A. » from 1945 to the middle of the 60’s, the FOCA Universel « RC » is likely the most captivating ever produced in France at that time.
The camera was the last development of the FOCA, sometime called the « French Leica » because the optical and mechanical precision matched and even surpassed the original thread-mount Leica. Far before the first Leica M (the M3 in 1954) O.P.L. developed a bayonet-mount FOCA in 1948 called the FOCA « Universel ». Seeing the incredible viewer and range finder of the Leica M that is likely the most sophisticated system even engineered, O.P.L. released lately a great improvement of the FOCA with a novel collimated, parallax auto-corrected, of a fully original and different design of the Leitz system.
The FOCA Universel RC It is a rare camera that only appears for time to time on the collector market, being only produced to a bit more than 2000 overall units in the years 1962 and 1963, just before O.P.L. decided to quit the camera production and returned to other instrumental optical production. O.P.L. soon merged with SOM Berthiot and today can be found still in the industrial filiation of SAFRAN group, the French leader company for designing and producing system for aerospace appliances. The plant where the FOCA's were produced still exists in an almost original form in Châteaudun, Eure-et-Loir, France.
I got my first FOCA URC unit two years ago (Sept. 2023, flic.kr/s/aHBqjAV6Dg) that is a standing and emotional piece of my small camera collection.
I got this one from an apparently ignored auction on the French eBay. We were only two biders in the last 5s and I won the auction not far away to the initial price. The camera was fully revised, with new shutter curtains, a new delayed shutter release mechanism. The serial number indicated a year-1962 production starting with 1.000.000, closed to my first FOCA URC. The camera works in every functions like on its Day-1! The camera came with a late version 1962 of the OPLAR 1:2.8 f=5cm standard collapsible lens of excellent quality, the FOCA UCR dedicated ever-ready leather bag with the original leather neck strap in good condition.
The original O.P.L. camera warranty and a registration postal card fortunately followed the life of the camera, indicating that this beautiful FOCA Universel RC was sold to its first owner on August 9, 1963 by the official FOCA dealer « ROYAL-PHOTO, Photo-Ciné-Magnétohone », 42, rue Vignon, Paris 9ème arrondissement, France, today a Weill fashion shop at the same address. The address of the owner also still exists with the original Parisian building in place, Boulevard Poniatwski, next to the Métro station « Porte de Charenton », Paris 12ème arrondissement.
The shown original FOCAL Universel RC user manual is the one that came with my other FOCA URC camera.
These information pushed me to question what were the news in France on this Friday, August 9, 1963… France was mainly on vacation, by an exceptional wet and fresh weather that wasted many French citizens holidays. The whole national radio information bulletin is still available online here :
