This is my favourite. Perfect.


Kevin Collier   {K:19076} 5/11/2005
Very nice - I can see why it is one of your favs .. mine as well .. K


Roger Williams   {K:82679} 5/11/2005
Selenium toned, no doubt? (It has "that" look.) Did you know there is a website devoted to the Contax G1/G2 cameras? In the right hands, they give great results, as here. Bit too complex for my taste despite the wonderful lenses...

great documentary.


Matej Maceas   {K:24381} 5/11/2005
Selenium toned, yes. I wonder what that typical look looks like on your monitor, because on mine it differs significantly from the actual print :-)

I know about the contaxg site, but since the camera isn't mine but my mum's (I just borrowed it for one afternoon; I'll see about its future use, it has some nice features, especially the small size is convenient, but there are also some things about it which I don't like so much), I'm not going to join there ;-)


Roger Williams   {K:82679} 5/12/2005
Matej, the selenium look, on my screen at least, is a distinctive ivory colour with warm blacks. I love it, although I am fully prepared to believe that scans don't do it justice. If you like small cameras with wonderful lenses try a Cosina-Voigtlander Bessa R2A or R3A! (I use the earlier and now much cheaper "R," a fantastic bargain with the 35mm F/2.5 lens.)


Matej Maceas   {K:24381} 5/12/2005
The ivory whites are most likely due to the paper, but the warmth of the blacks does indeed sound like selenium :-) An additional nice effect is that the midtones tend to turn slightly purplish.

I wouldn't mind trying out the cameras you mention, but I have to control myself - I already have too many cameras, given the (small) amount of rolls I shoot.

Looks like the print can only be very beautiful. Nice work, lovely tones and contrast, Matej.


Kate Mocak   {K:817} 5/19/2005
Beautiful, my dear. It's my favourite too.

Wonderful photo. But I find a bit to contrasty. On my screen the highlights are almost blown out. I know there's more detail there.
