What are the relative merits of 35mm and medium format?

Wedding Photography FAQ - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS AND ANS...
Most professional wedding photography is done in medium format (6x4.5, 6x6, or 6x7 cm) because of its inherent superior technical quality and ease of enlargement production. A larger negative will make inherently sharper enlargements. The 35mm negative is 3.6x2.4 cm and requires a higher enlargement factor for a given print size, so grain and focus errors are much more apparent. Medium format has lots of flexibility for cropping and alignment.

Is it advisable for our photographer to do the formals in medium format and the candids in 35mm?

Wedding Photography FAQ - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS AND ANS...
This depends on the methodology and philosophy of your photographer. I usually don't because it complicates logistics (twice as much equipment and supplies to carry), and I can see a difference in image quality in a side-by-side comparison of group photographs or other compositions requiring resolution of detail. Many contemporary photographers employ the mix of formats using the advantages of each. Let your eyes judge the merits.

a. How do I shoot 35mm film in my medium-format Holga?

Holga FAQ
Another possibility, if you're handy in a darkroom, is to tape strips of 35mm film to 120 paper backing and wind it onto 120 spools. This would add the advantages of not wasting film by winding too far, you don't have to shoot as many pictures to finish the roll (you would get 12 or 16, just like 120 film) and you don't have to count the clicks.

There are two requirements for still cameras, whether 35 mm or medium format: 1. Should be auto wind, unless you want bring down the 50 foot tripod or blimp after every shot. 2.

In general, the department store brand dark is heavier than the drugstore brand dark. And don't forget that two applications of a light or medium formula may give you better results than one application of dark.

What medium will we use?

Artista Creative Safari's for Women
For a variety of reasons, we use acrylic paint and gesso on paper, wood, and stretched canvas. We've noticed more and more contemporary artists are utilizing acrylics for good reason- they can be used for a wide range of techniques from thin washes like watercolor to layered, thick textures similar to oils. They quickly dry and unlike oils, are low odor and easily thin and clean with water.

I use acrylic paint on quality pre-stretched canvases. I prefer painting on the thicker (1 ½ inch) canvases if the artwork hangs on the wall without a frame. This is how the artwork hangs on my wall and it looks great. The thinner (3/4 inch) canvases are easily framed, and the choice is up to my clients’ preferences.

What is medium format photography?

Maui Wedding Photographers & Maui Photography - Creative Tou...
Technically, medium format photography refers to the size of the negative that the camera produces, that is, a medium format camera produces a "medium" sized negative. Normal 35mm photography that you are accustomed to would be considered to produce a "small" negative. Kathryn uses Hasselblad cameras and lenses. This is one of the most popular,reliable, and respected brands of medium format cameras. This camera produces large 2? x 2? inch square negatives (3? times larger than a 35mm negative).

Do you use a medium to create thick brushwork?

FAQ
Susan and I use mineral spirits to clean our brushes and to thin our paint down a bit for initial washes, but just use the paint straight without any medium for the rest of the painting. The way I get such thick brushwork simply has to do with laying out lots of paint and really loading up my brush. I will even mix up large piles of the various colors I'm using in a painting with my palette knife so I will have plenty of paint to work thickly with.

Q - Do you do use 35mm or digital cameras?

Rollman Photography
I prefer to shoot digitally, but will shoot 35mm upon request. Please keep in mind that 35mm film is more expensive and it may affect your package price. It is much easier and quicker to modify digital photographs (into black and white, sepia, etc.) than it is to shoot with 35mm and then convert.

Back to top Can I use HEPES buffer in my cell culture medium?

ATCC: Frequently Asked Questions
Answer: HEPES and other organic buffers can be used effectively with many cell lines (see Shipman, C. (1969) Proc. Soc. Exp. Biol. Med. 130: 305). However, be aware that the compound can be toxic, especially for some differentiated cell types, so its effects should be evaluated before routine use (People, C.A., et al., (1982) In Vitro 18: 755). HEPES has also been shown to greatly increase the sensitivity of media to the phototoxic effects induced by exposure to fluorescent light. [Zigler, J.S.

What medium do you use for the comic? Is it originally black and white?

FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions
Yup. I draw it with my trusty blue pencil (69 cents at your local Loomis & Toles) and ink it with a fineliner. For Episodes 2 & 3 I used a kid's watercolour set for shading. Cheap and fairly effective. For Episodes 1 (the revamp) 4 & 5, I scanned the comic unshaded, and shaded it in Painter Classic (a very nice little program I got with my wacom tablet). Later I moved on to Painter 8, which has a much more finished look than PC.

Which brush material do I use for each medium?

Rosemary&Co - Quality Artists' Brushes
As a general rule of thumb the finest hair is used for watercolour: Kolinsky Sable being the ultimate, followed by Pure Red Sable, Squirrel etc. At the moment, there are some excellent Nylon fibres which imitate Sable thus keeping costs low. It's not just about 'snap & spring' which are familiar terms but how the brush strokes the paper. Sable has the advantage of holding a huge quantity of liquid and 'flows' when pressed onto the paper.
