Analog film photography and cameras

Did you take those?

As @ᛠᛙᚺᚣ✻ᛕᛙᚺᛥ says also consider SLRs, if you don't want to pay Hassleblad money for 6x6 there's also the Bronicas ?

WYC have a SQ-A with 80mm for £375

Amey takes some photos ! I like both of those

Yes bois

its a great camera + lens combo for portraits, the mirror bang isnt bothering me .. I did some 1/30 shots handheld without issues.

Congratulations man, welcome to the club!

I take it you did get the optional cherry wood grip by now then?

nah, also found out that the Mamiya 645 strap works with the lugs

P&O guy is great

Facial expression looks like "oh boy, what are you doing kid.. shooting that beast without the optional cherry wood grip?"

Lol

I'm going cycling in northern Spain in a few weeks and I'm planning to bring my film camera - does anyone know if they sell film in non-specialist stores in Spain?

Some photos from a recent trip to Argentina:

Going to depend where in Spain I guess ? Much like the UK, should be easy enough to pick up from major cities but will struggle outside of that.

Barcelona for instance has a fair few places you can buy film from - Casanova Foto, Nostalgic, Lomograhy Shop etc

Like number 2 btw !

Thanks! I meant more whether it's possible to get film in smaller towns - like how some areas sell film in pharmacies

Nice shots! Bet it was enjoyable to shoot in sceneries like these..

For what it's worth, I love my SQ-A. Fantastic bang for the buck

From my own (very limited) experience you’ll struggle to pick up film outside the major cities

Why not just bring your favourite film with you?

Mamiya 645, Portra.

I like lichen

Thanks, this was in a high altitude desert area, so everything was lit spectacularly.

I'll be bringing a good amount of film, but as I'll be cycling I don't have a huge amount of space. I'll make it work though!

I haven’t quite worked out the ergonomics of it yet, even with the (non cherry wood) left hand grip.

Otherwise really happy with it. Can fit it (in a padded insert), travel tripod, grip and film etc into a small backpack which works very well when I’m riding out somewhere to shoot

Haha, it's like a big brick, isn't it?
You just have to figure it out with this one.
Think over the years I shot that camera I switched between the two different shutter buttons (never used the "right thumb" one in the beginning but eventually did. Then switched back. Years later somebody gave me one that actually had a prism finder (only ever shot with the waist level one before) and that really messed with my head completely, made me actually not-want to use the thing any more.

get a cherry wood grip

fuck me, why haven't I thought of this all those years!
