Love for 35mm film photography
Recently I ordered a new old film camera, Canon 500N. My old Canon 300 was getting too scratched and I felt like it needs to finally retire. Got together all my expired and fresh film rolls and in a beautiful day like this I figured out I have to how them off.
P.S. In fact, eBay is a very nice place to spot interesting auctions for very reasonable prices. Keep your attention sharp, if you’re in a hunt for something! Don’t have to over-pay the price. Cheers!
Nice! Good luck with the Canon, the first shoot is really lovely!
Thank you so much! I will enjoy it, I feel it :)
Very nice. I like old cameras.
Me too, they’re magical
Cannot wait to see your pictures with this one!
Me neither! :) Surely will post the outcomes on my blog as well!
AHA! You’re hooked! (or rehooked). I’ve been slowly going through a roll of film. One thing I like, amongst many, is that it makes me take a step back and think about the image and make sure it’s lit well, composed well, etc., before pressing the shutter. It’s taken me almost 2 weeks to shoot 22 frames – have 2 more to go…
Are you going to develop the film yourself? I’ve got the setup, minus plastic bottles for the chemicals – need to scrounge up a couple – but I haven’t developed film since high school photo lab classes. I wish I had someone to hold my hand for my first time. Argh!
Film is amazing, no doubt about that?
I agree with the waiting and over thinking every shot you make.
I do not develop the film rolls myself, unfortunately. But I’d love to try it out one day, if I had the chance!
fantastic. yes, i love using 35mm film myself. i got myself a an eve older ‘new’ nikon fm2n. completely manual, and really fun to use. and developing b/w film is one of the most fun things to do! haha. i’ll be posting some stuff on film, and developing, soon! nice post, this
Goodies, I love the totally manual ones. Great choice of what you want to make out of it, lucky you!
Thank you for dropping by, I will surely keep myself updates with you film blog posts! :)
