How times change a doctor pictured smoking and it needed a 10x8 plate to achieve. Excellent image.

Ian thanks for that you prompted me to look up some early film shots and quality proved to stand up quite well and I scanned the negs on my Epson 4990 Scanner. The photo of my uncle taken on 8x10 plate long lost so that is a scan from a 4x5 copy neg made at the time. I have just shot a roll of FP4 so will post the result when the negs and set of hi res scans come back from the lab. Sorry all this is not Nikon material but hope it is of interest.

Graham, when you printed the 8x10 did you do a contact print from the neg or use an enlarger? One of the things I like with my old MPP 5x4 was the fact that a contact print was very easy to make.

No Kodak had a 8x10 enlarger but I made a copy 4x5 neg and am glad I did as there was little loss of quality and I still have the neg and have been able to get a high res scan off it as the picture is important to the family (Sadly he died just three years later smoking did not help). He was very senior in the Royal College of Surgeons and I was asked to take a portrait for their board room when he retired.

 This is B&W off above colour image, interesting how much darker the sky is compared to the Rollei pix below. Perhaps should have used orange filter with the Rollie?

60 yrs later not that much in it. Ian you were right to ask for a look at my old Rolleiflex is with FP4 not bad, but the D500 is clearly better. I did my best to match the two B&W images.  Click here to comment on this image.
