- In this video I am testing Adox XT-3 developer with Kodak Tri-X. Adox XT-3 is a clone of Kodak Xtol, is it worth using, see the results in this video, also, my trusty old Nikon 9000ed scanner is dead, replaced with the Nikon 5000ed scanner which I will show how quick it scans a 35mm full frame at 4000dpi. Your contributions help me make these learning video's.

Not only are all your videos enjoyable, educational and informative, your photographs have great artistic merit as well.
Thank you
@@martinhensonphotography Hey Martin - have a look at Flic Film Black, White, and Green developer if You like it Xtol / XT3. It's a one-shot concentrate like Rodinal with The same sort of shelf life but using the same active developer ingredients as Xtol.
So glad to hear you are on the mend. Your videos are always on the top of my watch list.
Cheers
You were sorely missed, delighted to have you back in the saddle again. It certainly didn't hurt your photography! This was a superb set of images.
Hopefully my health holds up for more vids 😀
@@martinhensonphotography would you do video interview for my youtube channel
I am pleased you are making videos again!!
Thank you
Beautiful work. Fog makes everything photogenic, but you make it look effortless to get good images. I never get such nice results!
happy to see you back in better health and again with a camera in hand
Feels good, thanks
well come back, we were missing you!
Świetny materiał , cieszę się że znów jesteś z nami . Pozdrawiam Gerard
It's great to see you back, thank you for the video. I enjoy your knowledge of photography.
Your welcome
Martin glad to see you back in action I had a similar thing, so I understand regards Kevin
glad you are feeling better and have your photo mojo back.
Martin, your pictures are NEVER boring. Keep them coming!
Your to kind, thanks
Glad to hear you are better. Wonderful enjoyable video and some great photos! Thank you.
Thank you
I just have to say that i really enjoy your videos good sir.
Glad to see you're back.
Thanks
Excellent Martin your sense of the composition. Good job.
Glad you enjoyed it
21:48 this image is superb!
Great to see you out taking photographs again Martin and I enjoy your longer videos. Some unusual and interesting images especially the Otley ones. Think I’ll give Adox a try. Trouble is I now want a Pentax lx !!
Try the Adox first then the LX lol
Very happy you're feeling fit and back on-line. Thoroughly enjoy your videos and images.
Brilliant as usual and good to hear and see that your back at this wonderful pastime that brings so much to each and everyone!
Memories are made of This!
DG
Memories are so much better backed up with pictures
Excellent compositions Sir...and your documenting yourself and editing and your work are par excellence !!
Very glad to see that you are better now. Missed you all these months ! God Bless you Sir.
Sensational images, Martin! Congrats. It’s terrific how the fog heightens the sense of depth, most noticeable in the images of the trees. And that Pentax LX seems like a perfect SLR. Even though I mostly shoot Nikon lately, I’ve been so enjoying my Pentax Spotmatic SP, was able to find a mint 50mm f1.4 and 28mm f3.5 Super Takumars (with original hood on the wide) for a song. But your LX has me dreaming of a K-mount Pentax for sure. Congrats, good to have you back.
Nice to see you back Martin, great images in the fog.
Love the fog for Black and White
Thanks for the video. We should all have a cup of tea before developing film.
Lol works wonders, thanks
Great to see you back!
Thanks you
Hi Martin - very much enjoy the thoughts as you move through the field. So much content out there about "gear", but process and practice stuff is just great to see!
For me, photographing trees and wilderness areas is always a fun challenge.
So may variables; what to include in the frame, where to put forms in the space and how to deal with overlapping shapes in the composition not to mention the light !
Thanks again!
Beautiful, beautiful photos, every one.
Thank you so much
Outstanding job once again 😊. Soooo wonderful to see you out and about
Glad you're back and feeling better Martin. All the best.
Cheers
It’s great to see you back in the game Martin. I have to say that I envy your foggy day out. Here in northern Illinois where I live foggy days are very few and far between and seem to come only when I’m on my way to work. Many are the times that I’ve considered calling in sick just to be able to photograph those fleeting moments but alas, my dreaded work ethic won’t allow. Anyway, I’m happy to see one of us gets the opportunity. And, congratulations on finding a worthy successor to the 9000ed. All the best to you and your family for the holiday season and the coming new year. Cheers!😀👍
Seasons greeting to you as well , thank you
Great job. Insure me to get back into the art of film. Retired without much to invest. We shall see what develops.
You have a marvelous eye for composition
Thank you,
Nice to see you up and about again Martin, great video and picked up a few tips when shooting in Fog.
Happy to see that you have your mojo back ;-). Enjoyable video, thanks!
Feels good to be back thanks
Wonderful video. Thank you.

Hi MARTIN -- Great Tuitional Video as usual - wish I had YOUR SKILLS with a Go-Pro and Editing so I could do similar Walkabout Videos here in Brentwood Essex but at the moment my health is letting me down------
Sorry to hear that Peter, love your videos and your unique style, keep well
Beautiful photographs, Martin. I liked the fact this video was longer than usual though it went by fast for me. I envy the fact that you have such a beautiful locale in which to make pictures.
I am lucky to live in the Wharfedale valley, every time I go out I realize that and never take it for granted
@@martinhensonphotography would you do video interview for my youtube channel
Hello Mr. Henson, what you are shooting on film causes only respect and admiration for you! The cosmic music in your video is very soothing and has an anti-stress effect. All the material is at a high level!!! Congratulations, sir!
Thank you glad you enjoyed the video
Great video. Nice to see you again !
Thanks
Great to see you out and about again Martin. Enjoyed the video, some lovely images. I have the Coolscan V scanner and it makes scanning 35mm very easy.
The scans from these scanners are wonderful really as they keep the film "look" even though they have been converted to a digital file
I agree with you regarding the Nikon ED scanner. Mine too, is merciless in showing, dust, scratches or film defects as well as detail. Sloppy, one can not be in handling film when using a Nikon scanner. Some lovely photographs Mr Henson and nice to have you back.
Wonderful scanners, the 9000ed was no as bad at showing marks and dust, maybe its the light source on the 5000ed
@@martinhensonphotography It could well be. I at times, actually prefer to scan some of my 35mm negatives with my V700. It will have to be sharpen up quite meticullously in post, but if the negative does not have the amount of detail that the Nikon can bring out in the first place, then Epson V700 will do as the soft cold light will not show up so much of the grain and scratches. Horses for course I guess. The Nikon was originally intended to bring out all the colours detail, and the dynamic range of the now lamented Kodachrome 25, and in that it was unsurpassed but for the Flextight and Drum Scanners.
lovely photographs 🎉
You sound really rough m8!! I do hope you are feeling much better!! Cracking vid... And photo's are awesome!!🙂
I'm trying lol, thank you
Been missing you...glad you are back
Cheers
Quite a few keepers there, Martin. Thanks and keep on feeling better.
I will certainly try, thanks
Nice to see you, Martin. Loved all your 35mm creations!
Thank you
Hi martin nice to see you back have missed your vlogs. And your images are great as usual 😊
thank you
First time viewer and now subscribed, really enjoyed the video and images, look forward to seeing more. Thank you!
Thank you
Really glad to see your videos again.
Glad you enjoyed it
Fine work sir cheers.
It is good to see that you are up and running around Martin, I just hope the grand kids can keep up. The photo's were beautiful but you cannot expect any thing less from a camera such as the Pentax lx and yes I own one so I am bias. It is is hard to explain how good they feel in the hand and the photos they take. I believe they were the professional camera made by Pentax, they did a good job with that one camera if that was the case.
Yes a truly great camera
Sharp framing, Martin.
Thanks Martin for posting such h a helpful informative video. Great to hear that you are on the mend. You have inspired me to load up my Pentax Lx and hopefully brave up and try to do some home development.
Your welcome
Fantastic video Martin, really enjoyed it. Glad to hear you are doing well now, have missed you and your videos. Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you as well
Glad you’re getting better love your videos
Thank you
awesome vid Martin.
Thanks appreciate that
27:55 I've often wondered if the eye actually creates contrast for us in dull conditions and takes it away on a bright sunny day. A lightmeter can give some surprising readings. How many stops of contrast do you think there were here? Also do you recommend shooting at a higher ISO when there will be much less dynamic range. I recently heard a knowledgable film photographer suggest shooting at the highest ISO possible that gives the amount of stops you need to capture the image...
Truly exceptional video and your images are a veritable feast for the eyes. I wholeheartedly agree with your findings for the XT-3 - a very worthy and economic alternative to Xtol. Atb 👍
Thanks
Great video, really enjoyed it. I can relate to health challenges, 2022 was a year to forget for me. Wonderful compositions and beautiful lighting conditions. Just curious, do you have to compensate for the orange filter at all or does the meter on the Pentax handle it very well?
Thank you , the meter handles it perfectly
What software do you use with the Nikon scanner?
Vuescan professional
@@martinhensonphotography Thank you. I have that Nikon scanner which has been “unsupported” for some time.
Have you compared flatbed film scanning to the dedicated film scanners?
Ah I asked too soon, I see you talked about it.
@@smithp67 I actually have done that in a video here ua-cam.com/video/f-FlgnwKYfA/v-deo.html
I don't think you've done the street idea with the waist level finder, yet
