Getting back into film

Adox B&W Film

Photography's been a hobby of mine since 2005, and I started out shooting film. Eventually I took the plunge into digital and enjoyed it. However, in the last several months I've gotten back into film and have been taking a darkroom class as well. My primary influence and interest in photography is fashion, more along the lines of casual, classy, even a little nostalgic sometimes. At the moment I'm using older Pentax Super Takumar and Carl Zeiss Jena lenses, and prefer the black and white films from Adox and Efke (RIP). [image info: black jacket images were shot on Adox Silvermax 100 using an early 1960s Carl Zeiss Sonnar 135mm lens, and white jacket image was shot with Adox CHS 100 using a Pentax Super Takumar 2.8/105mm lens. Lenses (probably set to an aperture of 5.6) were mounted on Canon SLRs via adapters - M42-EOS for the Pentax and Exakta-EOS for the Zeiss] In the end I believe memorable photographs are those that provoke an emotional response, and that's why we can be so fascinated by them. Keep shooting film, Alan Brzozowski
