Many thanks for Loshen for perfekting the E6 using FujiHunt.

This picture looks much better on light box:

Previous one was slightly under. Here is one that was also done by Loshen's E6.

you are right, the bellows are very long when I shoot these, almost reaching the end.. so far so good, I have no need to use the macro chart yet.
I am using 210mm and the subject is big enough ( so far ). If I start to shoot those little flowers, then perhaps I will need to use the macro compensation chart.
I normally shoot at F8 ( lens widest is F6.8 ).
There are several locations that is good for flower shoots in Singapore.
- The Botanical Gardens ( orchid garden ) is one of them. But you have to pay to get in.
- Guang Ming Shan has lots of nice orchids also, but the location is not in the favor of the morning light.
do share your shots here

Throw poison must show us how to shoot.

Billy, there was once, when i was very crazy into orchids and i visited this farm at jalan kayu there, the seletar farmway..which me and my buddy always hang out there....
And i got hooked especially on Phalaenopsis..and bought alot to fill my corridor...but somehow the weather in Singapore just don suit orchids well...no matter how careful i am to them..fungi strikes and it spread from 1 to another..within 1 month, all died...that was the end of my orchid passion...

The ones that you took are dendrobiums...more hardy...and much cheaper... but ants love to build the nest on its charcoal!

Same setup as above.

merelyok, how you find the CF model? Looks like our parts are interchangeable.

Shanghai 100, Ilfosol 3 Stand dev-ed for how long? The slight sepia tone and details was it from the scanning or the Ilfosol does bring out the details?

Hey Nikkornos, to be honest the CF model is really quite like a giant Holga. Flimsy and plastiky, but it does the job. I'm probably looking to upgrade to a Chamonix in the near future.

Ilfosol 1:100 stand developed for 1 hr, with agitation at the 30 min mark. I should probably invert the tank next time as i'm seeing some trace of Bromide drag this time round.

Scan was done using Epson scan (i usually use Vuescan but i'm too lazy to install it on my other laptop). Details are mostly there, just that i added the sepia tone via Silver efex pro and played around with the curves alittle. Most of the editing was done to get rid of dust.
