Ricoh FF-70, make it double!

[El Horla]

This is from my third roll from this little camera I'm in love with.

First time in all this:
Film: Sensia 100
Double exposure: shot the roll, rewound, and shot again
Cross process: C-41 (for negatives)

Bye

[mabelsound]

I love 1 and 7

[erikhaugsby]

140 exposures on a 36 exposure roll. Wow.

I'd hang 1, 3, and 10 on my wall.

[El Horla]

Thank you Mabelsound, Erik

140 exposures on a 36 exposure roll. Wow.

No, there were just 72 (36 x 2)

Bye

Oops...I guess I mistook the Ricoh to be a half-frame.

It's all right, I've should post a link with info, well, better later than never,
here it is

RICOH FF-70 (http://www.collection-appareils.fr/ricoh/html/ricoh_FF_70.php)

I realized that people tend to find it gorgeous or horrible, I guess
nostalgie has a lot to do with that :D

.

[ishpop]

the whole set is amazing if you ask me. Several are worthy of printing big. wow. I want to do this so bad...

[zuikologist]

Really nice work. I want to do it now too!

[tensai]

These are great man. Very nice compositions and feel in many of these..

[maddoc]

That's a great series, some surprising photos. Very good idea.

[paulfitz76]

I love #10 and #5 - keep it up!

This camera looks pretty sharp. I will have to find one and add to my current project with 80's autofocus 35mm non-zooms. Working with a T2, Nikon L35, Leica Mini II, a cheapy canon etc.

I don't think I could get my Walgreens to cross process though, they are picky.

[infrequent]

wow...pretty cool! how did you manage to get the frames to line up though?

[btgc]

FF-70 rewinds, leaving film tip outside so if you load without pulling out excessive tip then pics from next cycle should match positions from previous cycle.

My favorite is #10

[El Horla]

Thanks everybody, you are very kind :)

how did you manage to get the frames to line up though?

FF-70 rewinds, leaving film tip outside so if you load without pulling out excessive tip then pics from next cycle should match positions from previous cycle.

I was afraid of that, too, what I did was trying to remember the
exact amount of film I used for loading the camera in the first
place, and it worked.

And yes, that tip feature is great!


The formula I used for correct exposure was to multiply Iso and
the number of exposures (2 x 100= 200).

As btgc said in his thread (http://rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=49531), i taped the roll so I could fool the camera
and set any ISO I wish.


Hope you try this, it's very funny taking the pictures and waiting for
the unexpected results

Bye

[Pherdinand]

it's a funny idea indeed, with the element of surprise, and some of these came out as a very nice combination.
Cool.
Congrats. You made something new (to me,at least).

Fits the colours of the crossprocessed neg, too.

[btgc]

El Horla, indeed you have found something new - shooting whole roll twice is different approach from planned multiexposures. I have SLR with ME feature though haven't explored it...Communities are good in that aspect!

[bcostin]

Great results. I'll definitely need to try this sometime, though I don't think I can find a place to cross-process. My favorites are #5, 8, and 10. Some of the combinations work really well.

[PICHA]

Sorry I did not see it before. Great idea perfectly executed.
