Rules - View in more detail
1) Photo posts must include the film stock, lens, and camera used in the post title. If you do not know some of the required information, state that in either the title or top-level comment e.g. [Nikon F3, 50mm f/1.8, Unknown Film], or use [Found Film] for auction/thrift store finds, family photos, and so on.
2) A maximum of 1 photo post can be shared per day. You may submit multiple images at once in an album, which counts as a single photo post.
3) No gear/film cache posts, these should go in /r/AnalogCommunity
4) No trading or selling. If you want to do this, please use dedicated communities such as /r/photomarket.
5) Flair NSFW posts e.g. nudity, gore, sex
6) Constructive criticism of photos is always welcomed here, but personal attacks, brigading, soap-boxing, disrespectful or marginalising the work or its subject are unacceptable.
6a) Comments complaining about the existence of NSFW posts in a NSFW flaired post are subject to removal, with possible grounds for a ban. This applies to sexualised comments including innuendo. Disable NSFW posts in reddit settings if you do not want them in your feed.
6b) Bullying users by following them around the subreddit and harassing them will get your comment removed with possible grounds for a ban.
7) No photos that are digital in origin. Post-processing work is perfectly fine; however, extensive manipulation should be disclosed in the comments.
8) You must own or have license for images you submit. With image(s) you did not personally take, include the source in the topic title, or a comment if too long for a title.
9) Do not include social media, website, or crowdfunding links in titles or top-level comments. If someone asks for a link then you can respond to that. Please submit promo links to the Self Promotion thread.
10) Flair your posts when possible e.g. “Critique Wanted” when specifically wanting critique, “Help Wanted” for questions, etc. Personal subreddit flair can be used for instagram handles, flickr links, etc.

Cinestill B&W film development kit
Has anyone tried it? Would you recommend it for a beginner? I took a film class where I got to develop and print myself, but I no longer attend that university so I don't have access to a lab anymore and would like to try developing at home. If it means anything I have a minolta SRT201, I'm still experimenting with different films, I mainly shoot with 400 ISO 35mm film, but so far I've used illford hp5 plus and aista edu ultra. My budget is a bit on the lower end, and i'd like to buy a small amount of the chemicals I need before committing to a large batch.

Please help me solve the problem
Hello, I just bought myself a yashica mat 124g, but I found a problem in it that I can't solve. When I focus on the objects around me and wind the film - after pressing the trigger, the diaphragm does not work. The photo is taken only when I shoot focusing on infinity

Spots in Minolta XG-M viewfinder – do they affect photos?
I recently bought a Minolta XG-M, and I noticed these spots in the viewfinder (attached image). Will this affect the actual photos, or is it just a viewfinder issue?

Need Help: Issues with Photos from My KODAK EKTAR H35 Half Frame Camera
Hey everyone, I recently developed some film from my KODAK EKTAR H35 Half Frame Camera. Unfortunately, two of the rolls were exposed, and I only had one good roll left. However, the photos from the good roll didn’t turn out as expected. I asked a friend for advice, and they said it wasn’t due to exposure, but I’m still unsure about what went wrong. I’m hoping to get some insight from you all to figure out what happened!
Context: the "normal" photo was taken after the 2 "exposed/yellow" film

encounter (m3, rigid 50mm, 20 year old ipford hp5 lol)
took a picture of the print on my phone, made a few edits on Lightroom to make it sharper and stuff.
the base picture was not the sharpest, my friend said it was because the film was too old. curious about feedback. thanks.
edit: in case not clear, leica m3 and summicron 50 (both borrowed, not mine) .. my bad.
