i've just set it up so no guarantees that it'll actually work.

Re: picture a week (idea)

this is a deadly idea..of course it would be deadlier if my computer hadnt crashed a few weeks ago and taken all my pictures with it..but yeah we should defintely have to take pictures within the parameters that we set..this is one of my favourite pictures that ive taken in the last while..i just like the way i caught the motion which is so rare for me:

sorry its big..

Re: picture a week (idea)

Taken with a vintage polaroid landcamera 100. Packfilm 669. I have no idea about the aperture or shutter speed in these photos. It is basicly only focus you can set. It is not through the lense so it took a good few tries before i got more than half an image Cool hue in the pics though. Its fun to play with, very diiferent to SLRs anyway...

that looks cool,
you could do some nice arty stuff like that.
Is slightly bleached tones due to the film or the lens coating (or lack of there of) I wonder.
My girlfriend is after digging out an old family box brownie, which takes still available 120 roll film. It will be interesting to see if she gets anything worthwhile.
Old cameras rock!

Re: picture a week (idea)

the depth of field in that pic is cool, managed to get the majority of the faces in the crowd reasonably sharp, really nice and contrasty as well

Day of the Ireland Vs Israel match last year.

Leica MP + 35mm on Tri-X
Wandering down Baggot St, saw people marching, shot roll of film.
Special Bonus for me: earnest-looking Sean Moncrieff. Hands outta your pockets, Sean.

Re: picture a week (idea)

you can get 120 film in Conns, and one or two other places in the city centre. It'll cost about the same as 35mm, but you only get 12 exposures (give or take) and it costs more to develop and not everywhere will do it. If you google the camera make and model, you'll see what kind of film they need.

you can get it in any decent camera shop as its still the standard medium format film. Its basically, as the name would suggest on a spool. Its 6 centimeters in width. When your loading it you unwrap the paper leader, feed it into whatever take up device is in the camera, wind it on until the arrows on the paper back appear then close up the camera and away you go.

Its usually under a fiver. Go to berminghams on the quay down from messer maguires, cheapest film in dublin.
Its probably expensive enough to process, though I know that cons cameras beside aya and the camera shop on camden st do it resonably enough.

The only problem is that prior to the 60s there was a huge variety of film formats that only varied slightly from one another. It may be that 120 film is too small/large by a fraction.

Anyway if you research the cameras on the web you'll find out. Go to ebay, some sellers give huge ammounts of info!

nah i think its actually because I controlled the exposure time with the release-button and because theres no lightmeter it is hard to control. Just over-exposed i think. I have been told that temperature can affect the film though...

Taken with a Fuji 6x9 medium format camera I bought on eBay. 400 speed film of some sort. Old cameras rule!

I'm cheating here because I took this months ago .... and I think I ignored the rules about it supposed to be street shooting ....

Good idea for a thread!
