Yo y'all,
I'd appreciate some advice on the following problem:
My dad just dug out a couple of old b&w prints. One of them must be from
around 1915, showing my great-granny (whom I never knew), and my grandma (in
her mid-teens then) with her brother and sister. This one is about
5 3/4 x 4". The other one shows my dad himself with his swimming team and
must be from around 1945. It is only about 4 x 2 7/8.
Now he would like enlarged reproductions of thes two prints.
What film would be best for that kind of work?
Also, is there any hope at all of getting acceptable results with my
equipment? With my OM-10 being away for repair, the available camera bodies
are an OM-PC, an OM-F, an OM-2, and an OM-2n. As for lenses, I own a 28 f
2.8, a 50 f1.4, an 85 f2, a 35-70 f3.5-4.5 (all Zuikos), a Vivitar 24 f2.8,
Vivitar 19 f3.8, and a Tamron 28-200 f3.8-5.6. I think we can rule out the
last three right away for the job at hand, as well as the 28 which is just
too wide. I also have a 12 mm and a 20 mm auto extension ring of unknown
brand (pretty decent, all-metal quality, though), a T-20 and a real good
SCA-dedicated Cullman flash (gn 32, metric).
Any chance to do the trick with any combination of the above?
MtFbwy,
Volkhart
