AGFA Clack Oh how simple......yeah Right!!!!




Actually The clacks are simple. Point. Shoot.Develop.
As the cameras were designed to work around iso50 (and that appears to be getting harde/more expensive to get) i have been working with different film speeds. Most notably ISO100. one of the other problems/bonus i have in South Australia is Light. We have an inordinate amount of clar sunny days and sometimes there just is too much brightness(i know i know..can't please everyone) but what i have done is uploaded these three Shots all taken within seconds of each other. The Day was exceptionally bright almost no clouds. They were shot on Fuji Astia iso100 film. the filters used as follows
1. ND.8
2.ND.4
3.Skylight
It would appear that on most days i would have to use at a minimum the ND.8 filter to cope with the usual lighting conditions encountered.What should have(note to self. remember for future reference) I should have written down the readings of my Gossen Lightmeter......live and learn.
