Analog film photography and cameras

I took a couple of photos of mattresses this morning because of you, but neither on film...

Going back through some of my old shots from my Hasselblad:

A cool thing I've discovered about the Pentax 67 being so BIG is that it's easy to use even when you're super drunk. Or maybe not so good as the pictures will probably be shit.

That third one is incredible.

Some portra film that was sitting in some cameras for... a while.

Love all of them, have to say the second one is really disgusting but boy does portra do nice tones with flesh..

Thanks! Yeah, they always say its good for skin tones :p

Im liking 2 and 4..

Great shots @danb and @Well_is_it

First thing that sprung to mind as well.

Have to say, I'm really digging the EOS 30. It's like using a normal modern DSLR but uses film, obviously.
The autofocus that tracks eye movement is genuinely a bit mind blowing - once you've calibrated it (which takes 10 seconds) it works flawlessly, even with glasses.

What happens in portrait?

^^ nice lilos btw.

Just checked. It works. Maybe not as accurately but it works. It only has 7 AF points, mind.

Bonkers.

Wanted to try that just for shits and giggles ever since I read Ken Rockwell rave about it.
Wonder why they didn't continue developing this though!

When shooting portraits can it really see the difference whether you're looking straight ahead or at one of the eyes (would this work with longer lenses and shallow depth of field)?

I haven't tried it with anything longer than 85mm but it technically works with everything. It's genuinely great as it removes the need for a joystick and you can use it with back button focus too.

Would be great if they brought it back but the main issue would be precision, seeing as current cameras have 60-100 AF points. It would work really well for group af selection at least.
