***The information on the film describes the films specification under the "standard" development.***Yep, the situation that most of us poor mortals use.
*** The word "standard" is artificial word, which was created in order to have a common denominator for the film evaluation, machines calibrations, and etc.***
You mean it's a standard use of a standard word, "standard", in the standard way that English speakers use the word "standard". It's no more "artificial" than any other word in the language, or the language itself.
*** The "standard" development dose not exists for capable photographers who do what they need vs do what is available. The standard development is an Industry term.***
You would appear to be saying that "capable photographers" are not able to do the standard processing.
You have also indicated that $8.00 an hour people can. Which is it?
Btw, where is that $8.00/hr person who can do Fourier optics? I'm waiting for that, too.
Of course SOME labs have messed up machines. You fire them (by never going back) and that's that. Enough messed up and they'll be washed up.
***O yes, what king film you use when you shot the buildings higher then 11 floors, on Friday, with Bogen tripod and absolute humidity 86.5 %? So, you do adjust that Vibroplane...highly sophisticated tool by the way. Have you heard the Stravinsky's symphony for two violoncellos and one vibroplane?***
Film? If I have to do that, I go rent a short-lensed 4x5 with a lens that will cover 8x10, and hope I can tilt and shift it enough. It has nothing to do with film, as long as the film comes in 4x5.
Btw, *this* is a photo asylum, so go move the music back where it belongs.
Once again, since there ARE good labs that do what they are supposed to do, film reccomendations have value.
Your point of view is a bad joke. You rant about how film rec's are useless, because labs are bad, etc. You ignore the fact that some lot of us (I'm hardly the only one) find labs that aren't.
Of COURSE custom development can be useful, BUT using a film at its target use is an entirely reasonable action, too, and one that us mere mortals with papers and patents in the vision and optics field often use.
Your assumption that I haven't used polycontrast paper is amusing, btw, of course you could also be talking about diffusors vs. condensors, or a few other things, which I'm sure you made sure of so you can't be pinned down.
Now drop it.
You remind me of the cat in the image included here, Romy. If I were you, I'd be careful about annoying the dog any more.
