HP5 at Night

- So I loaded my Nikon FG for the first time ever and am pretty happy with the results! For the time being, I think I might stick to Portra or a highish ISO color film to keep up the color contrast. There's a time and place for HP5 at night and I'm sure I'll find it one day.

Expose for the shadows and develop for the highlights - so target the shadows to around zone IV, and cut development by 20 percent to keep the highlights from blowing out - or look into developing with something like Diafine. Diafine lasts a good long time and is a compensating developer.
Love this video. The photo at 7:09 is my personal fav. Dig it!
Thank you so much!
Interesting that you consider HP5 to be contrasty at box speed (although of course that depends in part on the developer). Although if the comparison is Kentmere 400, then, I suppose HP5 has some contrast. Great photography!
Let’s goooooooo! HP5 is the way to go in my opinion, you made it look 🔥🔥 even dodging the weather!
Thank you so much! You just can't trust the weather I guess, haha.
Cool photos! I do have to try B&W at night.
Nikons, particularly the F2, FE, FM, etc. had 60/40 center-weighted meters; 60% of the reading from that central 12% circle in the center, 40% from the surrounding area. The F3 had an even stronger weighting towards that circle, something like 75/25. Not sure about your FG…
Thank you! Those numbers sound right for the FG from my limited experience.
Love learning new things about my favorite b&w stock.
I love shooting night as well, don’t do black and white too often, as I love the shifts you get on color film. Andy’s is good stuff!
Damn I love your photos😍😍
Thank you so much!
Love the videos🙏🏼
Sick stuff! I have a roll I haven't been sure what to do with. Night stuff might be cool 👀
Hp5 is awesome at night at box speed it's the best black & white film there is
