Some landscape in Rebild Bakker with Pentax 645, Portra 400, Fuji Pro 400H, Lomography 100, Fomapan 400

Rebild bakker is one of the most beautiful places in Denmark, and well worth a visit if you ever find yourself in Northern Jutland Denmark. I had not been there in ages, and decided it was time for a little hike through the hills to enjoy the scenery in “Golden Hour”. And i thought, what can be better for a hike, than bringing my heaviest cameras, yes “plural”. So i Brought my Bronica SQ-Ai with 150mm Lens, which i just got a new SQ-A house for, and lets just say, i left that one in the car, after it got stuck after a couple of shots……….and the other backup camera i brought was my Pentax 645 with the GINORMOUS 80-160(Im danish, im excused for making up english words). But see the picture down below, where i lined it up next to my Fujifilm X-100f :). Its a monster, but it usually delivers ! And the 80-160 its the only lens i have for it, so it could probably be a lot smaller with a prime, plus its actually a really good workout in these covid19 times, where the fitness centers are closed.

I brought several rolls of film to test something different, so i brought Portra 400, Fuji Pro 400H, Lomography 100 and some Fomapan 400. I have added picures from the different films below, so you can see for yourself. And now for some Portra 400 shots, all taken with the heavy Pentax 645, which i lugged around these beautiful hills, while huffing and puffing 🙂

Next up we have the Fuji pro 400H, shot on the same heavy gear 🙂

And almost finally we have a few shots from the Lomograpy 100 120 film, i actually like that film quite a lot, its a good cheap alternative to the more expensive Portra/Fuji series, making it accessible to most people! 🙂

And finally we have the Fomapan 400, the only black and white guest film of the day. Im not especially fond of Fomapan 400 for landscape, and the pictures below did not change that opinion, it just gets to grainy for my taste. Might be me doing something wrong in the development, it like Fomapan for gritty street and portrait, but not for landscape.

Roadtrip on the east coast of Northern Jutland with Leicaflex SL and Fomapan 200

A couple of weeks ago, it was up in a town called Sæby, on the North East part of Jutland, Denmark. That is where my parents live , and they needed some help around the house, And that was a good excuse for a road trip, i took the long scenic route around along the water.

I also needed an excuse to test out my new Leicaflex SL, that a childhood friend gave me, i will tell that story later. I also started rolling my own film, hence the light leaks you see, had a little mishap with the bulk loader. But now i think i have it under control 🙂

So one of the first rolls of film i shot with homerolled Fomapan on my Leica 🙂 Homescanned and developed

Trip to Lundby krat with the X-100F

My all time favorite camera, is the handy little X-100F camera from Fujifilm, its the camera i bring everywhere i go, family trips, shopping, for a walk, our out for beer with friends (Remember we used to do that…. ;( ) The best camera is the one you have with you, and as much as i like my big medium format film cameras, they are not always practical.

Picture from a family outing to a local forest area called Lundby Krat, with some nice hilly hiking routes. And not many people, which is essential in these times! Stay safe out there!

Morning walk in Noerresundby with expired film (Agfa Vista 400)

Digging in to my to-do list on film scanning 🙂 (Scanned 5, only missing to scan 20 more!). So this popped up last night, a morning walk with a good photo friend to experience the fantastic morning light. I was shooting my trusty Nikon F4, with a nifty fifty, and some expired Agfa Vista 400 from 20003. These pictures are pretty much straight out of the scanner, scanned with the Agfa Vista 400 profile in Silverfast, and a small exposure adjustment (was slightly overexposed, but i always do that with film).

The film is a 400 speed but, but it was shot at 100, 2 stops over exposed. 1 Stop would have been enough i think, but better safe than sorry, and i like the result, it has the film look i like, This is almost my last roll of that film, and im gonna miss it!
