FOMOPAN 400 WITH THE HOLGA 120N
I was recently gifted some rolls of film and one of them was Fomapan 400 black and white. This was my first time shooting with Fomapan 400 and I was excited to see how the film would perform and what kind of results I would get. I loaded the film into my Holga 120N camera and set out to take some photos around town.
Panoramic Photos With The Fuji GW690II
It’s fair to say that I haven’t been motivated to go out and shoot photos around Portland lately. To get out of my funk I decided to make a third attempt at running a roll of 35mm film through my Fuji GW690II medium format camera designed to shoot 120 film. Doing this will create a panoramic photo over the entire width of the negative so that when you scan your negative the sprocket holes will be part of the image which can create a unique and interesting aesthetic. You should choose your subject and compose your photo with that in mind.

Redscale Film with the Canon New F-1
One of the many things I enjoy about film photography is the abundance of options available. Everything from the film format to the camera and lens used. Then you have all the film stocks available. I wanted to try something new. I decided to shoot some Redscale 35mm film. Briefly, Redscale film is when you expose your film on the backing layer side through to the emulsion side of the film creating a red-orangish-looking photograph.
First time shooting Kodak Ektar 100 with the GW690II
During the COVID travel restrictions, I have had a bit more time on my hands to work on some personal projects. I decided to go back to my photography roots and shoot photos with film. I have used 35mm film cameras in the past but wanted a bit of adventure so I picked up a used medium format Fuji GW690II from eBay and got to work.
Eastman Kodak files for bankruptcy
Eastman Kodak files for bankruptcy. I have been reading about Kodak and their financial troubles for the past couple of years, yet it still came as a surprise when I read the news this morning about their filing. Kodak was once the dominant company in the photo film industry, it was the film everyone used.
