Nishika N8000 Pt.2

-
I loaded up the Nishika with a fresh roll of Lomography ISO 100 and wow! The results were so much better this time. Lesson learned. Expired 100 film is just not something I should ever put in here ever again. The colours turned out so vibrant and grungy/grainy 90's lookin which I love.

So, I took it for a spin at the Parade of Light exhibition which was part of this year's Fringe Festival.

Whoops, I kind of forgot about this roll until I found it at the bottom of my backpack last week! This was a really interesting event, especially if you're into vintage cars and motorbikes. These photos are from the Bay to Birdwood launch in Rundle St, September 17th, 2017. According to their  website , it's the largest annual motoring event vintage and classic vehicles in the world!   In odd-numbered years, The Bay to Birdwood has an event celebrating vehicles manufactured before December 31st, 1981. This community event allows car lovers to admire a variety of classics, or showcase their beloved restorations. In even-numbered years, the Bay to Birdwood turns into a motoring cavalcade, driving throughout the streets of Adelaide, ending in Birdwood. This event features vehicles made before December 31st, 1959. It was a really lovely day for it too, the shine on some of the cars was unbelievable. My favourite cars were definitely all the VW bugs, and whichever car...

Nikon FM2

-

I was scrolling through  an Instagram account last year [ @michovasfilm ] and absolutely fell in love with the quality of her photos. I saw it mentioned somewhere that she used a Nikon FM2 for some of them so I researched it and finally, a high-quality camera that revived my interest in film photography. The few I saw for sale in Australia were way too expensive though; thankfully my parents are lovely and surprised me with one for my Birthday! It's a Nikon FM2N but from what I've read, there's not too much difference between the two models. Camera Background Nikon is a highly regarded brand, for good reason. Their cameras are usually quite durable and beautifully made. The Nikon FM2 & N were made in the early 80's, until the early 2000's. These cameras in particular, are well known for their durability, plus the fact that they can withstand some fairly extreme temperatures which is why they're still used by researchers in Antarctica. Astoundi...

Panorama Wide Pic

Spotted this for $3 in the op shop a while ago, always wanted a panorama film camera so hey! Here we are. I don't really have high hopes for this camera as it feels super plastic, flimsy, and it's simply point-and-shoot. Who knows, maybe the photos will still look really nice and surprise me. If not, I may modify this camera to remove the mask and just use it as a very lightweight camera. Hopefully the photos look alright, I can't be mad at a $3 camera either way.  Camera Background I couldn't find much information on this camera, at all. I do know now that it came in red and yellow too which looks pretty cute. The lens might be a 28mm, but again, I can't confirm this. The actual panorama effect is achieved by way of masking the top and bottom of each frame [obscured by black plastic to give it that narrow effect]. Review I have to say, the photos surprised me. I used an expired roll of Kodak ISO 400, not sure what sort. I expected the photos t...
