    Thank you! I was planning a darkroom session at the school where I taught... but I think I will try this new method.

      Cool. Yeah much easier and cheaper. If you do a lot of film the purpose made scanner better and they throw in software like silvereffecta too.. scans turn out better

      @@robdido wow… thanks for the tip. I’ll bet you there are apps out there for solarization, and all the old techniques are used in the dark room.! I just retired from teaching art in photography for 40 years at the high school level and now I’ll learn new methods!

      @@nannyenisan developing and darkroom work was always so cool. I'd love to do it again but big commitment.. the digital age made it easy but we seem to have lost that tactile element to the art sometimes.. 😆.. software wise you can use Photoshop or Lightroom or luminar.. plus lots of free stuff too out there

      I seem to have thrown most my negatives away from yesteryears. If you got heaps prob best to get those dedicated ones.. its a time consuming process. Good excuse to revisit the good old days

      Im still experementing with it. I found playing with whte balance helped on the computer editor. Or they turn out too warm. Some i liked warmer darker some i liked cooler brighter

    Very thorough Roberto, you should take up instructing professionally. You have far more patience - and ability - than I have. On the odd occasions that I'll use a film camera, it's off to the local camera shop for them to do their magic! Your way is more satisfying though.

    • @robdido
      @robdido  2 года назад

      Lots of patience needed with this. Especially if you have heaps of old negs from the past. Haha 😄 i think my accent and stuttering might put a few off if i took it up properly.

    wow, non sapevo si potessero pulire, devo comprarmi l'alcol isopropilico,! l'affarino JJC mi è arrivato da poco, l'ho usato coi guanti ma ho riempito ugualmente la pellicola di polvere, poi non è facilissimo inserire la pellicola dritta, continuavo apri e chiudi finché mi sono stufata, mi serve da esempio la tua calma!

    • @robdido
      @robdido  Год назад +1

      sì, il modo migliore è rimuovere l'acqua e asciugare bene la pellicola, quindi non è necessario pulirla. ma ho sempre polvere e peli di cane .. hahaha 😆

    Great video. I would have thought you'd want a 3:2 ratio for 35mm negs.

    • @robdido
      @robdido  2 года назад +1

      True. I tried that but its only for the jpegs. I put it in raw and 4:3 covered the whole sensor and cropped later. I found the 3:2 was harder to frame up when taking the shot.
