I used for the first time a Krasnogorsk 3, I used it with a Orwo UN54 30,5 meter, process with Reversal process.
All right, the image is the usual Orwo that I like in other format, good image, good exposure; but I noticed that... in few seconds of some scenes there is a simil "pulse" of light in high light zone of image. Strange problem, of course. It's similar of when the film taking light in one side, but, as said, it's not to the side of film, but in some highlited zone of frames.
I would say that the film has taken a bit of light (although I was careful. Maybe in process at lab?) but I would like your help to rule out a problem: one day, while Krasnogork was on the tripod, with the film inside, it fall to the ground. Absoluty no damage, not even a scratch, lens and body Ok, no crash that would infiltrate the light. Ok, but the problem of film It may have been caused by damage at camera that I don't see? I do not think, but...

Re: "Pulse" light in Orwo with K-3
Ah, of course it would be useful to have a telecine of my film, but with homemade method that I use I think the problem would not be seen: as mentioned, it is just a small detail of the scenes.

Re: "Pulse" light in Orwo with K-3
So does it pulse light about once per rotation of the reel? what happens when you look at the edges of the film just before or after it goes through the gate?

Slashmaster and other, I uploaded a "flying" video, taken with a Sony handycam, without any forethought.
Bearing in mind that the video has a very strong flickering, it has distorted colors, the lines of interlacet, and all that we know happens with shooting a projector screenings, I noticed that the problem can be seen in these points (I know that we distinguish the problem that I say to the problems of a "flying telecine" like this.):
1) 0:31 A small flash at the bottom right, for one second. In projection you look best.
2)1:13 A small flash in edge of two palace, above the pipe of the gutter
3)3:03 Here you can focus well, the yellow bright border of little cabine, is iron, reflecting with little flash, for some time, you see that it is cler an artifact.
Obviously in projection will see better, but still have tiny artifacts, certainly it is not a ruined movie/film
Ah, is not the problem of the projector, I see them even with editor viewer.
For you are: simple artifacts of light, reflections, things can also happen with camera in perfect condition?
In short, I would be able to exclude that my K-3 has problems. If I was wrong to point the spotlight, or I was shot too in direct sun, or was it better to use the ND filters or are artifacts from lens, but that does not mean damaged lens it's OK!
I wonder if the camera would have had problem, even with the fall, it has light leaks, he film should not have been more veil and homogeneous veil and not in light areas such as these?
And if had damaged the lens or the shutter or mechanical of camera, should not see each other more film damage than simple micro lights?

I see in some 16mm films shot with Krasnogorsk, around the web, that certain artifacts seems there may be. But I'm not sure yet...
How You tell me about my film?
