Yesterday september 22nd was a big day for the Save Analog Cameras project. After months of collecting questionnaire data from film photographers, they held a special event, where they finally revealed the conclusions of their study. Most of us saw the presentation as a live stream online, but I was lucky…
Alright, back to basics. After shooting few rolls with AE-1, telephoto lens and what have you, it’s time to get back to my usual choice of 50mm f1.8 and Olympus OM-1. Whatever I end up trying, I always seem to get back to the Olympus. Even though it still has…
I got a comment on my other blog article saying that “Nothing against film photography, but I see no reason to shoot analog in 2017.” I felt a bit surprised to see a comment like this, because talk around film usually is very encouraging to keeping the medium alive. I…
Analog photography really has a way of curbing your enthusiasm. Because you don’t see your shot immediately, you have all this time to romanticise the image in your mind before seeing the results. The camera is remorseless and records everything that you point it at. Your mind isn’t that remorseless…
Exactly one year ago I started my photography all over again. I decided to start from the beginning. I’ve always looked up photographers but never considered myself of being one. I have been into photography for ages, but for some reason I’ve always felt that I am not a real…

On my previous post I mentioned taking a step back from my Olympus OM-1 and other mannerisms. I’m going to continue on with the same theme, because I have another fresh roll taken with a completely different setup than my usual OM-1/Tri-x/D-76/50mm/street -combo. You see, about a week ago, we…
Today I tried something a bit different. As you may know, I am a huge fan of my Olympus OM-1 and 50mm lens. Today though I really wanted to take my Canon AE-1 for a spin and just to make things more interesting, I left my 50mm lens at home…
This roll of images took me once again about a month to finish. I took it to the streets, to a hiking trip and when I went out to take out the trash. The result is few street shots, few nature shots and few trash shots. Here are the few…
Couple of weeks ago I went for a ocean kayaking trip and took a digital and a film camera with me. On my previous post I already posted the shots that I got from my digital camera. Now I finally have my film shots as well. These are straight from…
