Pentax 67, 45mm f/4, Kodax TMX100
My first roll of Kodak TMX100 through my 67 was mostly a success. All the frames seemed well exposed, for the first 8 frames I used my K10D for metering and on the last 2 I used a Gossen Digisix meter that I got for my birthday. I set both the K10D and the Gossen to ISO 80 so that I would be overexposing by 1/3 stop but all the negs came out looking a little thinner than I was hoping. I don’t have a darkroom so I have to send my film out for developing, and this could have contributed to the slightly thin looking negs. So far I like the film, it seems to have very fine grain. The grain barely shows up in a 100% crop of a 2400 dpi scan. Speaking of scanning, I also received a Better Scanning MF holder for my Epson V500 as a birthday gift. This makes scannning much much easier and the results a far better than the OEM holder. It does a much better job keeping the film flat which is essential to good scanning.

Turned out great!
Hi there,
What holder do you use instead of the OEM holder of your Epson? I am currently looking for a scanner, and I am considering a better holder too.
Thanks! R
Hi Rense, I am using the betterscanning holder for my V500. I highly recommend getting the holder if you get a Epson scanner. The ones that comes with the V500 is PITA to load.
