Speed of Light - Pushing Fomapan 400 to 1600 ASA

Being a faithful user of Fomapan 400 film I became even more happy when I read somewhere that there can be some benefits from pushing it. Both speed (of course) and contrast increases, both of which I am a fan of. So to try it for myself I begun by loading my Halina 35X for the holiday by the sea.


I am very happy by the grittier contrast that the push process brings. It means that I don't have to spend as much time editing to reach that look. Some of these photos were not edited apart from by the scanning automation.





And then I exposed another roll through my Olympus Pen F. I am very happy with the results!

Celebrating 20 + Articles Elsewhere

  I have had a fun eight years burrowing deep into the world of film photography. Within a few weeks my 22nd contribution to 35mmc.com will be published. The website, which is run by a small group of people, publishes contributions from the global community of mostly film photographers. I have contributed sporadically with reviews and other articles on  photography related issues since May 2017. Almost as long as I have written about photography on this blog.   Disposable Cameras Canon QL17 Rangefinder Canon Demi half-frame Canon Lens Modding Olympus LE Camera Olympus Pen-F Yashica 50 mm Lens     Halina Lens Modding  4 Minolta Cameras Steinheil 50 mm Lens Instamatic Voigtländer Lens Modding Meikai Camera Ricoh Auto 35 Camera     Chaika Camera Modding Redscale Film   Hanimex 110 Camera  Canon 1980s Compacts Canon Prima Mini Camera Reviving Instamatic Cameras Focus-Free Digital Lens During this time I have also contributed a few art...
