Canada Day 2023

Alberta, Calgary, Canada, E-6, Fuji GS645S Professional, Fuji Provia 100F, half-frame, medium (120) No Comments

A beautiful day, fresh film, and a new camera. I’ve been yearning for a good walkabout medium format camera and I think I found it in the Fuji GS645S Professional. Essentially a half-frame camera, the GS645S is no bigger than a Holga. While it has a light meter, everything is fully manual; ISO, aperture, shutter […]

My Top 3 Film Cameras of 2022

35mm, Adox CHS 100 II, Alberta, black & white, C-41, Calgary, Camera Reviews, Canada, Fuji Industrial 100, Fujica ST801, half-frame, Kodak Farbwelt 100, Minolta XG-M, New Zealand, Olympus Pen EED, Rodinal 8 Comments

And so, here is my take on that theme. The three cameras mentioned below took centre stage for me and held all my […]

Ollie

35mm, Agfa Vista 100, C-41, half-frame, New Zealand, Olympus Pen EED No Comments

This is Ollie. He is my father-in-law’s dog and he followed me around the house as I snapped some photos. I’ve posted photos of Ollie and his good friend Milly before. Milly has since passed away. Ollie misses her.

35mm, Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Canada, half-frame, Kodak SO-554 200, light leaks, Olympus Pen EED No Comments

These photos were shot on Kodak SO-554 200 film — a film I know almost nothing about. I came across this mysterious film one day while shopping online and quickly bought 3 rolls. All I can tell you is that the SO stands for ‘special order’ and the 554 is the order number. Kodak SO-554 […]

Camera Review: Olympus Pen EED

35mm, Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Camera Reviews, Canada, half-frame, Kodak SO-554 200, light leaks, Olympus Pen EED No Comments

Inspired by Katie’s Half-Frame Diary, I decided that I needed a half-frame camera myself. I love the look of two half-frames scanned together. The two images form a diptych and the juxtaposition offers a unique opportunity for photographic storytelling. It’s something that I’m eager to experiment with. I already own a Diana Mini, and while […]

52 Week Challenge: Week 1

35mm, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, half-frame, Kodak UltraMax 400, Lomography Diana Mini, toy camera No Comments

Back in January, I decided to take on a 52 Week Photography Challenge. Since I shoot film, it’s difficult to have the photos from each week of the Challenge processed in time to have them posted in the corresponding week. So I have to post my photos late. Week 1’s challenge was to take a […]
