Posted by yuwono on Jan 13, '08 2:10 AM for everyone | | From Bank Indonesia Museum to Jakarta Kota train station. That day Billitione took me to several places. Among them the train station is the most interesting site we visited. We snaped some picture, but mostly we just chit chat, and try some street food and drink there.
Taken with my newly discovered Konica Hexar RF with M-Hexanon 50mm f/2. I'm still not get use to this camera and focal length. 2 new rolls of B&W film were being "sucked up" by camera's auto rewind, so no film leader I can use to load the film. Only 1 more B&W film left. So, desperately I purchased this color Fuji Superia 200.

Posted by yuwono on Jan 8, '08 10:25 AM for everyone | | Yes, I visited this place again... It's near my office and near Sim Lim Square. Just need to swing by, if i want to do snapshot.
Just dig the Wikipedia. This humble place actually has long history in Singapore. Dated from Raffles era, British colonial, Japanese occupation, post-war era and till now. Once this place called "Robinson Petang", meaning evening Robinson, and some people call it "Thieves' Market", Sungei Road flea market now remains only the die-hard street peddlers, displaying their wares on canvas sheets along the empty roads in the area.
I kept this negative for long, i forgot that I shot @ ISO400, and developed @ ISO100 instead. This is few negatives that (i think) survive from disasters.

Posted by yuwono on Dec 15, '07 4:59 AM for everyone | | Celebrating clear weather and blue sky... me and Wellington went to Singapore Turf Club, right after Singapore Marathon 2007 photo shooting .
I don't know exactly this horse racing work. From what I saw, the horse is displayed in Parade Ring, before race. There are couple of session of racing on 2 type of tracks: Sand and Turf. And the Jockey must be weighted right after the race.
Many big screen and TVs are installed in various place. It displays statistic and numbers... People bet. They went through analysis, calculation that from their expression, it's seemed more complicated than paper work in my office. One thing I know, they are all enjoy with what they are doing...

No, I'm not talking about the participant of marathon.. but Wellington and me... We want to continue shooting on Sunday... anything... then, lucky we remembered this Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon .
We missed the start and champions entering finish line, but we happy we can capture the ambient of participant and supporter after the run. They all gathered at Padang celebrating their achievement...

Posted by yuwono on Nov 10, '07 12:03 PM for everyone | | Alternative format is always amazing, specially panoramic. I have witnesses the great photo by Igor with his XPAN II or Wellington with his newly discovered, kodak V705. In clubsnap.com, I saw some members like weekh who use 16:9 format beautifully.
So, this morning when I passed by Cash Converter -- a second hand shop in Punggol Plaza -- I spotted a tiny pocket camera named Yashica Panorama-mini.
At first, I hope, it's real single exposure panoramic format, or at least some kind of movement lens. But when I open the back, I realize this is just a normal 135 camera with a masking mechanism to obtain panoramic format. It just crops the pictures.
And the shop attendance said, it cost only S$6. Wow... really cheap!!. I decided to give it a try and bought it.
I don't know how to operate the cam, nor i can find any manual in internet. I saw a little button just below the lens with mountain's sign. So I guess, I need to press this when i want to make pano shot.
After developing the film (ERA 100, D-76 1:1, 12 minutes), the result is ..... none of frames have panoramic format!!!
I'm not sure, is this because the cam is faulty or I didn't operate it correctly. The exposures are OK. Some non-uniformity here and there, typical a pocket camera, but generally is OK. Some vignette, soft, and low contrast.
Since, when i took picture, I used panoramic frame-line in camera for framing and composing, so I cropped back the picture around 40% on shortest side using Photoshop. :(
I guess I still need to wait, to get my dream real panoramic camera.
Below are some test shots taken around my block.

Posted by yuwono on Oct 9, '07 1:25 PM for everyone | | Two ATM machines and hundred of people queuing... That's best describe what i saw in one fine afternoon while I'm waiting for end of fasting that day. People seems don't bother... They lined up and chit-chat.. They don't care if a kilometer away from here there's another machine available.. It's not the money that matter anymore... They want to spend the whole afternoon here with their best buddy...

Posted by yuwono on Sep 22, '07 10:04 AM for everyone | | Thank to Brian Web with his review on Shantou ERA100 that make this brand known to me. So, bought some rolls during my recent trip to Shanghai.
Few shot using R2A + Nokton 40mm f/1.4, and also on Leica Summicron 50mm f/2.0, borrowed from good fella Benjamin Leong for one of the shot (champagne bottle).
On D-76 7 minutes @ 22degC
So, what do you think of this film? To me, I even can not differentiate this to TriX 400... just slightly less contrast... wow...

Posted by yuwono on Sep 16, '07 2:48 PM for everyone | | This is second roll of ISO400. And I still didn't learn. It's jammed when I loaded the film to developing reel. It's looked because i haven't cut the film leader. And because of mechanism on this Bessa, it's slightly curled. Therefore jammed the thing.
The worst thing, I crazily opened the changing bag, to inspect the reel... so got some light leak.. got some hazy effect :( and even superimposed pictures, sigh!
Anyway... I posted most of them here...
There's special guess in this series. The last exposure was not taken by me. It's from my sifu: ticer, the teacher himself http://wandererjourney.blogspot.com. He is famous with, when he want to make exposure, some moment will appear magically... and when he want to test the foreground/background rendering (and bokeh), don't know from where, a cat passed by... wow.... [ Pardon me teacher... the light leak is also strike your frame. :( ]

Posted by yuwono on Sep 14, '07 1:23 PM for everyone | | It was once famous with their medium format TLR and 35mm SLR, Seagull of Shanghai.. Now, with the fast pacing of Digital era, they don't seem able to keep up.
It was almost a month doing office work in this city... too bad didn't have much time to take pictures.
Just a glimpse of everyday life, street and tourist spots. On Canonet with Tri X 400 film.

Posted by yuwono on Sep 13, '07 6:35 AM for everyone | | It was Ansel and other friends brought the idea to have outing for RF users in Clubsnap. The outing was not merely to take pictures, but also for equipment discussion. We all brought and showed our equipment. From various Russian rangefinders, Bessa R, R2A, R3A, R4M, many lenses, and Epson RD1-S.. I didn't see any Leica, tough.. :( So, in one morning, 17-June-07, after taking breakfast, coffee and chit-chat, we walked in a group and did shooting.

Posted by yuwono on Sep 12, '07 2:45 PM for everyone | | It was helping friend to buy this set of camera, and she is kind enough to let me use it first for 2-3 weeks. It was my pleasure holding this range-finder and did some street test using Tri-X 400. Unfortunately, there's a little accident when I load the film to developing reel. It was jammed, and when I force it, it scratch most of the frame. Below are exposures that think still usable.
The film was developed using D-76.

Posted by yuwono on May 1, '07 11:04 AM for everyone | | I have to do routine visit to this place, when my mom in-law visited us. You know... lady bag, shoes, etc.. so, in between hours walking from shop to shop, I requested for a cigarette break. And the cigarette break become a short photo session when I saw the afternoon light beautifully fell into pedestrian.
