They haven't announced a proper tour yet though. It's supposed to start in September or October as far as I know. :thinking:

It's alright, better than I had expected. Phil's coming to Amsterdam. :inquisitive:

Boo, I'm not interested in Phil's solo stuff. :sad: That would be a miracle. No, scratch that. It can only happen through some sort of divine intervention (or even deus ex machina if you will). I'd try calling upon Apollo. Mind you that post was very, very sarcastic. :tongue:

Cameras arrived. :nice: Unused film (I think) for the Smena SL :thinking: Gotta love f/1.8 :tongue: By the way, I saw that camera on flickr the other day. It looks awesome. :wacky: Kinda looks like a ship. :D If you want to do the one-photo-on-multiple-films thing, it's not that difficult to mod a medium format camera to 70mm (i.e. two rolls of 35mm film). Tut for Holga here. Not as awesome as the Battlefield, but way easier to do. :D (larger)

OMG OMG OMG I THINK I MIGHT FAINT.

No, they are not. I saw them last month and I was very underwhelmed. :nice:

How can you choose Hot Chip over.. anything really? :tongue:

Developing isn't a problem, scanning them is. You need a negative scanner that scans mid format in order to see the sprocket holes. Otherwise you'll just get scans of 36 x 24 mm images. But because Holga is supposed to shoot mid format, your 35mm negatives will be too long for a regular scanner. So you either need to find a place where they can scan mid format or buy a scanner (expensive :dead:). Or you could take macro pics of the negs with a digi and "develop" them in Photoshop of course. :nice: Still waiting for my cameras to arrive. :whip: Has anyone tried redscale (exposing the negative on the wrong side)? I think I'm gonna try that when my current film is full. :D

Yeah, I do know about cross processing, but I've never tried it because slide films are so expensive (even when they're expired). And C41 in E6 seems to have a desaturating effect. In any case, I wasn't impressed by the colour negatives I saw that were processed in E6. I wouldn't waste slide film on a crappy camera like the Action Sampler though. :D Are those photos yours? :nice:

Yeah, I think I'm gonna try that. My pics turned out really bland. :\ (but I also used expired film so.. :tongue:) Examples: Haha, I always have that discussion with my mom. She doesn't understand the advantages (and charm) of analogue photography. She thinks I'm crazy when I'm taking multiple exposures with my Nikon F3 (:heart:), but that's so much better (and so much more fun) than creating it in Photoshop. I love PS, but it can't beat analogue. :nice: :awesome: Anyone want to share (= post) photos? :D

Aww, you forgot Rambo.

Canon Powershot A710

It kinda sucks altogether, but still better than nothing.

Stupid BBC. :whip: I was rather enjoying that. :sad: 22:00 UK time I think.

:wacko: I bought two Smenas and two Sokols on eBay last week. :nice: Oh, and I have this one as well: It leaks too much light because the back won't close properly. :whip:

This is just cruel. :disappointed:

The Big Pink - Dominos

Your musical compatibility with ceolsige is Super (99.2933%) Music you have in common includes The National, Beach House, Radiohead, Sigur Rós and Thom Yorke. http://www.last.fm/user/evillau

I WANT A STREAM. :whip: That would be an awesome social experiment. :awesome:

Portishead The National Radiohead Joy Division Spiritualized

I haven't heard all new songs and I don't think I'm going to. Love Thom's Present Tense performance from Latitude though.

Oh, really? I checked flights from Amsterdam the other day because I'm playing with the idea of going to New York or Iceland (same direction anyway) next summer and the cheapest was around 500. But we have other airports as well. Flights from there might be cheaper. :\ That would be really cool. And impossible. :D

It's no big deal. Actually, it's quite boring, especially on long flights. But you should definitely come to Europe some day. :nice:

300? Wish I could. :freak: Return tickets from here are like 5-600 or something. :sad: Radiohead usually play in Amsterdam when they play here which is about two and a half hours (single journey) for me, but as I said in an earlier post, they don't play here often enough..

Since you live in NY, you should come to the meet up in Europe. :tongue:
