    Copal 1 lenses - which of these are good for digital & movements

    If I know there never was a lens named Apo-Symmar-S. I guess you combine Apo-Symmar and Symmar-S to make a new name. The last generations of that large format workhorse were Symmar-S -> Apo-Symmar -> Apo-Symmar-L. At the approx. same eras Rodenstock made lenses called Sironar-N -> Apo-Sironar-N...

    Looking to replicate telephoto panos in a single frozen moment with a high resolution back or large format film

    What you really want to know? Are you going to make a 10' wide panorama print? Do you want the forum help to shoot the photo(s) with pixels enough? All your numbers seems to be a lot off. Maybe found from internet, no wonder. If I look at your first "Reference Image" , it's a little bigger...

    Hasselblad Composer Tool

    If I understand you can't correct CA (chromatic aberration ) but you can correct CC ( color cast ) with LCC.

    Hasselblad 100C and 35XL

    I misunderstood how your tool is working, sorry. I also tried it using a file from somebody in getdpi forum. I could correct banding, but did not get colors and tones right. Then I found out that 100c was not supported. I'm not a native English speaker. I don't always get the right terms, my...

    Hasselblad 100C and 35XL

    If not a miracle you made a good job with your tool. Thanks for it! Keeping HNCS alive is a big advance. Also doing the fix in the camera is a very nice thing. It saves much work in post. So far I know any of the main stream raw developers can't do that kind of fix. So there's no way but RT to...

    Shifting/Rising/Falling Tech Cam - Mamiya 67 lenses + GFX or Hasselblad X ‘Back’

    I don't know if there's any connction between these two Hartbleis. There is this https://hartbleilens.com/lenses .Which is what was left from Hartblei company after the collapse of the Sovjet Union. Based in Kiev. And then there's Stefan Steib's https://hartblei.de/en/index.htm . Both of them...

    Hasselblad 100C and 35XL

    In his long letter to Hasselbad Marco says that his tool can fix also tiling issues. That's promising. But Marco's tool is made for Hasselblad only and only for in-camera correction. For Phase One user I suggest RawTherapee. I set the LCC blur to zero to fix dust spots. I guess that is the same...

    Copal 0, Aperture Ring stiffness variety

    I have this problem in one of my Copals. The aperture ring is too easy to move. I was looking for a screw or more screws to add friction, but did not find any. Maybe I have to try with some kind of glue. Thanks!

    Grandagon-N 65mm F/4.5 on GFX 100s...

    OK, lets take that Sinaron-W 75 mm. I bought it in the late 1990's for 5x4" film camera. I used it a small period quite intensively. I remember it was very sharp a lens. But then I went to digital! I started with Canon 10D and forgot all those stupid heavy big old fashioned view and roll film...

    Grandagon-N 65mm F/4.5 on GFX 100s...

    I have two Rodenstock lenses with clued front element. 1 Apo-Granagon 55 mm green line in Copal 0. 2 an older Sinaron-W 75 mm factory installed in Copal 0 to use in Sinar F. The front element in those lenses is so tight I dare not use power enough to open. Other lenses I own have been straight...

    Questions about using LCC plates.

    I can confirm that color temperature does not matter but I'm not sure of exposure and noise. I made a small test. This picture from Actus rear shifted 15 mm down and 10 mm left, 2.5 ° left swing. Apo-Grandagon 55 mm. Jpg out of camera. Then lcc assigned in RawTherapee. Lcc was taken at the...

    Hasselblad 135mm f/5.6 S-Planar Hood?

    I can't tell because I don't know anything of 135mm F5.6 S Planar CF. Do you have it? Can you tell about it? I only know there was 135mm F5.6 S-Planar C and Macro-Planar 135mm F5.6 CF but what is 135mm F5.6 S Planar CF?

    Questions about using LCC plates.

    Bill Claff seems to agree https://www.photonstophotos.net/Charts/PDR_Shadow.htm#Hasselblad%20X2D-100c But if you already shot at high ISO, say ISO 800, raising the ISO doesn't reduce noise remarkably.

    Questions about using LCC plates.

    I took a new flat file through a magenta filter. Then I used this magenta picture as a flat file when correcting the same picture. Something went wrong. The result is not bad but not exactly even. I had that filter in my hand. Maybe my hand made a shadow or the magenta was too much.

    Questions about using LCC plates.

    I think it's good to be neutral but not a must. I tried it. I took a couple of flat field pictures ( RAW + JPG ) First OOC jpg The same picture made out of raw in RawTherapee, neutralized with color picker ( see dust spots! ) I used the picture itself as flat file. The flat file was...
