Parlor.

Intrepid 4x5 Black Edition, 210mm ƒ/5.6 Schneider-Kreuznach Symmar-S Copal 3, Polaroid 405 back + Fujifilm FP100C.

Reclaimed negative scan

My first @12monthsonfilm post. This was an experiment. The film was in the holder for a while and I'd forgotten which film it was, but I had a faint recollection that it was Fuji FP100C.

So I shot this one picture in the music room. I didn't write down the settings because I just wanted to confirm what film it was, but my suspicions were confirmed.

The pulled print was way underexposed, but I always hold onto the "throw away part" because I get a kick out reclaiming negatives.

Reclaimed negatives… you know, securely taping the emulsion side face down to a piece of glass, fold up and place a paper towel over the black backing and soak it with bleach. Give it 10-15 minutes and then wipe away to see the remaining usable negative! Cool stuff.

I placed the dry negative on the scanner bed as if it were a print. The scan actually turned out! Pretty cool. Not the first time i've tried this trick.
