Lately, I’ve been searching about analog photography. I fell in love with it.
After seeing thousands of photos, cameras and rolls I talked with my mom and turns out she had an old analog camera!
This one:
I was so so so happy!
Next step was to actually learn how to use one of these… I’ve looked for the manual online and found the original one! There are a lot of things I still don’t know and honestly, right now, I am just experimenting with the camera. Although I understand that the technical aspects are very important I believe that experimenting has the same value.
After all the (not really) study I bought myself batteries for the camera, which were a lot more expensive than I thought, and a couple of rolls:
I am still on my first roll and don’t take as many pictures as I would with a digital camera because of the photo limit. I try to capture only the really special things through my eyes.
There’s this magic about analog.. You don’t really know what the outcome will look like (unless you’re a really experienced analog photographer) so there is always that surprise and happiness when you develop your roll!
I hope I finish my roll soon and I will surely share it here!
