Notice the texture… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec14e9d901e7f328f17267d/1589756184768-9O0Y4PFCOM6ZHB0ZG3W9/polaroid180+shot+of+camera.jpeg About - My analog of choice… The model of camera used for all my film photos here on this site also contributes to the instant film’s professional look. This being the Polaroid 180 Land Camera. Built in the 1960s, these beauties, with bellows, are purely mechanical. That’s right, no batteries needed, and they still can work after all these decades, so take that planned obsolescence! Plus, they are manual in all aspects, giving the shooter complete responsibility over the image. Focus (depth of field), shutter, f-stop, composition (it’s a rangefinder), etc. need to be calculated before firing away the shot. Yes it makes shooting more difficult, but yes it makes it that much more rewarding - when executed properly. Take a look at the rings around the lens. They are for the f-stop and shutter speeds. I use a Sekonic light meter to determine my exposures to set them. Ahhhhhhhh, takes me back to my college days in film school. To compare shooting film to digital: it’s like speeding around in a stick shift convertible vs. hauling your kids to soccer practice in an automatic stationwagon, if you catch my drift. https://www.polaroidartist.net/contact daily 0.75 2020-12-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec14e9d901e7f328f17267d/1590548889057-G1HVLXR3BL0LQSKNDY01/jpegme+portrait+magic+hour+sharp+eyes+smaller.jpeg Contact 2020 Self-portrait during the time of Covid 19 - trying to smile through it.
