By coincidence someone over on the LF Forum has recently been looking for infrmation but his Tri-colour camera. A big old beast which uses beam splitters to direct light through filters to 3 separate sheets of film to give simultaneous colour separation negatives.
The original Technicolour process for cinematography used a truly monstrous camera which did a similar trick to shoot 3 strips of film simultaneously, again one for each primary colour. A few years ago I as lucky enough to see a newly struck print of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, and the colour was utterly stunning. ps- This has wandered some way from the original post. Sorry |

Hi Mike
You're right - I've been following her emulsions and was intrigued by her results - the hybrid aspect never even occurred to me. Sorry about that. Regards Dave |

Of course the suggestion to try diffuser or soft focus attachment is much more rational, at least to start with. I mentioned it only because the OP has a Mamiya for which several soft focus lenses can be used (off the shelf, not cobbled together). Using the black stocking diffuser in enlarging spreads the darkness, not the highlights, so maybe not always the best for portraits, but can give effective moody effects with other subjects. |

The donor in the 120mm Imagon conversion that I handled was a 120mm Zeiss S-Planar in a Synchro-Compur 500C barrel. Such were the fees charged by top New York photographers in the sixties that the conversion was paid for by the first job that used it. |

I know this is an old thread but I just came across this article about Sergei Prokudin-Gorsky with some of his early tri-colour photographs and thought I'd pass it on.

Thanks for the link: it sent me looking for a book of photographs I haven't looked at for some time and they are by him:
'Photographs for the Tsar' published 1980 by Sidgwick & Jackson edited by Robert H. Allshouse. Mike PS I have now gone through the thread and it has kind of got off topic and alexmuir has already mentioned this book. Last edited by MikeHeller; 19th January 2021 at 11:56 AM. |

No problem with that Dave, as I've read the whole thread and found it interesting.
Only it's a shame to see that the OP has only made the one post, being for this thread, but then hasn't come back, or maybe he's just reading the posts made? Terry S |

Not uncommon Terry.
A quick internet search finds us, the OP throws out a question but no doubt asked the same thing in a dozen other places. I've seen the same thing on a couple of motoring forums I frequent. I suppose we could talk about the OP behind their back, if we were so minded. |
