Catching photographers on the street
Ok, here it is!
The first photo that is done :)
I shot Mark Groen on the Haarlemmerdijk in amsterdam with my new baby "Canonet" - first time ever with film, developed and scanned with the imacon with help from Hyung & Ludwig :)
I ran into mark when i was going to get some more film, because i only got one film at the store where i got the camera and said, im going to shoot you ;)

well, one really important thing about rangefinders and why they used to be so popular is size and weight. What a street photographer did and still does when using a rangefinder, is to go out on the street, measure the light, set the camera dof-range from, let's say 10 feet to infinite, adjust the shutter speed to it and take pictures.... the dof range is marked on the lens, that's basically it. wide angle lenses help, that is why the 28mm is so famous on a rangefinder.... don't move up too close to the motif and you'll be set well. Nothing really more to say :)Dennis Veldman 03/04/2008 16:06
exactly! tell me more!!!lot i dont know about rangefinders & what they can do!

I really believe you being nervous, hehe. And as on any other media, there is no excuses, have a look at Jim Rakete's last book, all done with a vintage cam on large size film, shutter speed 1/8 of a second.... If you wouldn't be told, you wouldn't know..... :))http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/3829602960/interactive01360-21
sorry, couldn't find a English version :)

hehe, model was not soo seriously meant :) and yes, this is not bad at all for a guy just starting analog, isn't that soooooo exciting? :) keep'em rolling buddy!!!Dennis Veldman 03/04/2008 0:02
heeeey andy,this is not really a model :) just someone i know, who moved around as i tried to focus with the manual focus on the canonet. he was moving and saying, come on shoot.
i never shot with a analog, and i didnt know the correct settings so this is the result. (just got the cam and didnt have my lightmeter with me)
not bad for a analog newb huh?
:D

like the grain, a great smile from your model, although on a cloudy day you could easily have gone for a wider aperture like 4 or so, a higher shutter speed and maybe would have gotten far less motion blur ;)Dennis Veldman 30/03/2008 19:23
