This slide was made in 1984, stored in a binder and not touched for 30 years. There were “dust” spots caused by the plastic holder which I didn’t try to clean off on the slide but cleaned up with NX2 in PP. Amazing quality after 30 years with no color fading.<br />
This digital image is from an Ektachrome 100 transparency from 1984. I used the NEX-5T with 55mm Micro-Nikkor close focus lens and pointed it at a lightbox about 6 inches away
A very old DMC-LC5 with Leica optics. CYMG filter. Original slightly noisy but with modern software that can be corrected. Nice 4MP image saved as TIFF in camera. Used a 28mm attached lens, with a Leica 28mm finder because the viewfinder was obscured by the big lens attachment.
This is from a WWII diesel sub, once parked in Charleston, now long gone. I think I would have liked to make a sub my home, but I am sure it would have been very expensive to maintain! But secure from hurricanes, and cosy in the winter. Picture heavily filtered to get the lighting effect.
Composite M6 film and background using DMC-LC5. This was taken in Harwich England. The thatcher said he was the last in his family to be interested in thatching.
Original were two barstools on a checkered floor in an ice cream shop. I used three filters from Flaming Pear. I'm trying to make some pictures that I can hang on the wall to brighten up a dark corner.
From a very old slide. Edited in Live Picture and GKON. I think I used a 50mm f3.5 Elmar, as I have had that lens for 50 years. There were hours of work to get the apparent lighting right. The shadows on the original were bluish.
