Kodak 400 ASA medium format colour negative film, accidentally under-exposed by two stops. That ruined the colours but some recovery is possible using a monochrome conversion.

As it was in 1982 - the statue of Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens, London, England. Kodak 400 ASA colour film. Scanned negative converted to black and white digitally. Mamiya C220, 65mm f3.6 semi wide angle lens.

Mamiya C220 medium format film camera, 65mm f3.5 lens, Kodak 400ASA colour film. Negative scanned using CanoScan 8800F flat bed scanner.

In the background, the Albert Memorial, London, in 1982. This is a small part of a 400 ISO Kodak 120 film frame. The whole frame when scanned at 2400 dpi would be 5308 x 5176 pixels (no, it is not exactly square!). This part is 3075 x 2306 pixels. (A 35mm whole frame would be 3400 x 2223 pixels.) This heavily cropped scan was done at 16 bits per channel (ie 48 bits) to preserve as much detail as possible. Not too bad, I think, for a relatively inexpensive, 10 year old CanoScan 8800F scanner.

The entrance to the Queen Elizabeth Hall and Purcell Rooms in 1982. An addition to the South Bank Arts Centre of 1951, this structure was opened in 1967. Mamiya C220, 65mm f3.6 Sekor lens. Kodak negative film. This picture copyright, all rights reserved.
