Welcome to the Film Photography thread.
Decided a spot for just film would be nice.
Inspired in a thread by Mountainsandh, and by
this thread (which I would point digital posters towards).
Rules
- This thread is for any size of film and of any subject of photography.
- The work posted here must be your own work.
- Amateur and professionals welcome - this thread is for everyone of any level.
- Post one or two images then let another person post (unless the thread is quiet)
- Images must be no bigger than 800 otherwise it swamps the page (see below)
- Certain levels of chat is permitted, if it is on topic - no quoting of images, just link back to the post.
This is done by selected the post number on the upper right hand side and then copying that url.
- If you remember what camera and what film you used - please post as it may be useful to readers.
- If you have a problem with an image posted or a user do not start arguing just report the offending post(s).
How do I post an 800 size image?
Well I am sneakily redirecting you towards CabanSail's post
found here.
You can post via Flickr, pix.ie, photo bucket and a few other sites online.
Some will link back to your account so people can check it out. If you do not want that just remove the link when posting.
What if I am entirely new to film and want to give it a go?
Here are some quick links for beginners
List of links on istillshootfilm - Good site which covers ISO, exposure, picking film, using dark rooms.
Crash course - contains videos of a guy talking your through, may prefer if you are auditory.
An infographic "cheat sheet".Tips on picking a 35mm cameraVery good site for manuals for old cameras if you don't fancy scrolling just google "butkus" and the name on your camera and "manual" should help.
Not posted too much on darkrooms as I feel thats more for a person to start their own thread to ask questions.
There are plenty of resources online, you tube and forums if you need any help.
Have fun
