Selenium cell photometer

Nearly all of these selenium light meter cameras have a dead meter.

Ho humm I found out later the light meter works.

You have to line up the asa dial exactly and give it a tap on selenium cell cameras.

ici c plus le caractère enfantin qui est mis en avant et avec le flou ça devient volontairement unisexe donc plus "universel"...

le traitement selenium est là pour adoucir l'image.

One of my first series of photos that I shot solely for the purpose of making a print series. They were originally shot on a rather nice early Saturday morning drive in August of 2014 through the Cleveland Flats and Industry Valley sections of the city.

 

The title comes from a specific bend in the Cuyahoga River in the Cleveland Flats that was notorious for a lot of collisions between ships navigating the river through the former industrial hotbed of the city.

Selenium cell light meter , made by Agfa , Germany ; 1958 .

This is the first selenium exposure meter that Gossen introduced in March 1933. The meter could be delivered in a linen-covered cardboard case( Bereitschaftskarton) or a leather case. Here you have the very rare (cheaper) linen-covered cardboard case.

Selenium Toning. Torrey Pines State Beach, CA.

Back view of the Skinner meter. The selenium cell with the black spot in the middle indicates that it originates from the first series of selenium cells that Weston produced from the end of 1931 on.

 

The box of 35mm nitrate film the meter is placed upon shows an expiration date of April 1934, hence the film was produced around the same time as this exposure meter.

Here you see two Electrophot Selenium exposure meters with the name of the meter written in the same font style. The left one was manufactured by Müller & Ziegler in 1933 in Germany, the right one by Adair-Rhamstine, USA in 1948 (model 14-A). All Rhamstine selenium meters got the name Electrophot since 1932. Maybe the "name-conflict" stopped M&Z in producing other exposure meters. (if they pick our name, we pick their font)

Fomabrom Variant 311, selenium (KRST 1+5) toned. Scan from 24x30cm print

 

Fomabrom is a nice paper that takes selenium much better than Ilford, or Adox. In strong selenium it gets to a nice purple. I am going to try to split tone it in the next few days.

 

Couldn't manage to get the exact look of the original print...this is kind of close, but not perfect yet. Subtleties of selenium toning are not represented as they are on the print. Maybe it's just my Epson 4990 that is becoming old...

 

EpsonScan would just scan it as black and white, even in color mode (!). VueScan would do much better, still the scan lacked in sharpness and contrast, that I had to add.

Now, I think I need to master the art of print scanning...

I think this dates from the early sixties. The selenium cell still seems to power it relatively well.
