This fella was evidently very curious about the weird contraption I had in my hands. I had to guesstimate the focus through the camera's sports finder, which is when the distance scale on old manual lenses and cameras comes in handy.

Sunset on a street near Viktualienmarkt in Munich. While walking there one day, I saw a bunch of people with cameras gather outside a storefront and point their equipment in the same direction, so I did the same. I was the only one with a film camera though.

The same cinema in Munich, roughly one year apart. The top photo was taken in late 2024, but the cinema closed in early 2025, and is now only partially open as a small café.
Top: Kodak Ultramax 400; bottom: Kodak Double-X@500. Both shot with the same Nikon F80.

Following up from the earlier post about the b&w photo on display at the Deutsches Museum, this is the formula for the negative reducer ("Farmer's Reducer") used to bring out highlights in dense negatives, as listed in The Darkroom Cookbook.

An exhibit in the Deutsches Museum in Munich showing how b&w photos can be retouched. The examples date from the 1960s, when current multi-grade photo paper and split grade printing techniques were not available.
