Where can I buy 10,000 rolls of Tri-X right this second??!!

Post title is a joke, but can I say I love this film more than anything else right now!

Here are a few unedited photos from a recent shoot.

Even if you don’t like the shots (I hope you do), this film just does it for me.

What are your thoughts on Kodak Tri-X 400?

The City of the Dead

I inherited a bunch of expired film, including a roll of Kodak Gold 100 that expired in 1993. I live near a very cool cemetery, so figured it would be interesting to shoot the roll there and see what happened. I went on a bright sunny day and way over exposed, and these are the results. I know expired film gets a lot of hate on here, but I think the lurid greens and magenta cast give the graveyard such an otherworldly feel, like you’ve tipped through a reflection into another place, into the city of the dead.

My favourite film stock, that is sadly impossible to get today, still have 2 rolls but too scared to use them

Question about scanning negatives?

I’ve returned to shooting film, in addition to digital, in the last year. I am not developing (yet) but I am planning on scanning some of my own negatives (the ones I really like)

I have some questions about the technical aspects of digitizing, without a dedicated macro lens, using my system.

I sold all my old digital equipment, revived my old film camera, and bought a used Hasselblad X2D. My thought process was if I want to take casual photos I have a cell phone, and all other times I’m out shooting my intention is to be slow, methodical, creative, and treat it as an artistic endeavor.

I have a 55V lens, it’s not macro and it’s not flat field. However I’m digitizing 35mm negatives, so I’d be using an aggressive crop on the medium format sensor.

Have any of you done this? What kind of results have you had?

Any advice? I’d really rather not have to acquire an additional camera or macro lens just to digitize and would prefer to get this task done within the confines of the equipment I have.
