Ilford introduces Kentmere 200 black-and-white film and starts providing Delta 3200 in bulk rolls. RETO releases a new panoramic film camera, while Jolylook unveils a new hand-crank Instax Wide back for DIY cameras. This month’s winner of 3 FREE Cinema Shorts 50D/500T rolls has been revealed (if you didn't win this time, there are still several opportunities ahead). Additionally, there are updates to the sole web-based, fully-featured film inversion tool, along with guides on overexposure and community submissions!

Thank you ❤️ for supporting this independent, ad-free review, guide, app, and community publication created for and by film photographers! Your contributions provide me with the time and resources to work on projects like film Q, the sole web-based negative film inversion tool that offers complete 16-bit TIFF and camera RAW support. This newsletter includes updates on the app, community submissions, FREE film, and upcoming articles on Analog.Cafe.

This guide will assist you in understanding the reasons and timing for appropriate overexposure, which films to overexpose, methods for overexposing your photos without compromising them, and how to scan and edit overexposed images.
This article examines the interplay between technique and artistry, as demonstrated in Kubrick’s work at the London exhibition. It isn’t a critique of the exhibition—there are many of those available—but rather a contemplation on what is required to produce something of high quality.

Occasionally, I compile short videos from casual clips recorded on an outdated phone. Here’s the most recent one: #editorial.
Throughout my years in film, I've encountered several fortunate blunders, some of which turned into exhibition-worthy pieces with a bit of assistance from the Universe's enigmas.
