For the next 12 weeks or so, we are putting our digital cameras aside (well at least for the course assignments) and picking up our old analogue cameras. I've resurrected my old Pentax K1000 with its 50mm prime lens off a dusty shelf in the back of my wardrobe, dusting it off (quite literally) loaded some colour 100 ISO Fuji film and took her out for a spin.
It was that grey, damp, wet, windy weekend - hmmm - so it wasn't making my life easy. However, I gave it my best shot and here are some of the results.
Having used a digital camera now for so long - I've gotten used to auto-focus - the sheer tediousness of trying to focus on a object took its toll. Some worked some didn't. The whole process slowed me down - I couldn't not click away to my hearts content - I had 36 exposures only. There's no reviewing my image, so I had to document it all in a little log book. Its all very time consuming, but it does make you think about the shot.
And thankfully, my analogue camera appears to be still working after years of no use!!
