The problem is, the new flash doesn&#8217;t work properly for it. It works perfectly for my Nikon Z5 mirrorless camera, but not the Pentax. It does fire&#8230; most of the time. I&#8217;m pretty sure the TTL (Through the Lens) metering doesn&#8217;t work with that flash, so exposure is all over the place. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though this is the third roll of film I shot, I didn&#8217;t process it until I got some sort of handle on developing. I didn&#8217;t want to screw up these pictures. This was another roll of Arista.EDU Ultra 400, developed in a 100:1 dilution of Rodinal with semi-stand agitation. This was also shot at box speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"716\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/03-08-1024x716.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-80\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/03-08-1024x716.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/03-08-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/03-08-768x537.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>These are my mom&#8217;s new kittens, Ivy and Sage.

The lint is pretty straight forward to avoid, but I&#8217;m not quite sure what&#8217;s causing the spots. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I got quite a bit more pictures of the kittens on my Nikon Z5, so those should appear on the site sometime.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"697\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/03-35-1-1024x697.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-86\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/03-35-1-1024x697.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/03-35-1-300x204.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/03-35-1-768x523.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>My grandmother&#8217;s Amazon parrot.
