the film experiment

Last year, I bought a film camera.

I can’t explain why. Maybe I wanted to prove to myself that I could take decent photos without needing to check my exposure after each shot. Or maybe I wanted to believe that film still has that somethin’ somethin’ that digital doesn’t have.

Eventually, I put a roll of film through my new (old) camera.

What do you think? Somethin’ somethin’?

Try to ignore the fact that I took all of these in a quick stroll around the Newcastle CBD;)

Niraj Popat - Luke, these don’t even look like film! They just look fantastic. So I’m not sure if this is a positive thing for Digital, or a “Negative thing for film” (excuse the pun, lol). I think digital + some post processing techniques could produce similar styles. Great shot of the moped in the back-ally.
