Lomochrome Turquoise is a false-color negative film created by Lomography to produce unusual orange, cobalt, and marine color schemes. This emulsion is already remarkably distinct right from the package, but it can be enhanced further for an even more exceptional and striking appearance.
Sissi Lu, a photographer based in New York, has recently introduced her DO NOT X-RAY Film Pouch product, which can be found at various camera stores across the US and Canada, as well as on Sissi’s website: https://www.sissilu.com. #editorial.
Last year, Daren, Yvonne, and I demonstrated that it's possible. We experimented with a variety of unconventional developers, and our "Sativa Cannanol" formula showed great effectiveness in producing low-grain, high-quality results with Ilford HP5+. #editorial.
Redscaling refers to exposing the back side of color film, typically resulting in photos that are moody and dominated by red hues. However, Lomochrome Purple is not standard film; it is a false-color film, which means it reacts differently when redscaled. In this article, I will share some reflections and examples from my week-long experiment photographing with Lomochrome Purple loaded "the wrong way" alongside a dense green filter.
Those of us who were raised in the '90s might recall the classic boxy Polaroid cameras, such as the Polaroid Sun 660. I was living in Moscow at that time, and we owned one as well. The Polaroid Flip seems to be a contemporary version of those 600-series cameras. #editorial.
The Nikon Super CoolScan 5000 ED is Nikon's quickest dedicated 35mm film scanner, produced in the early 2000s and 2010s. It stands out as one of the rare vintage devices that can connect to contemporary computers using USB 2.0 without any problems or need for alterations. In this extended review, I will examine the experience of digitizing film with this scanner and compare the outcomes to those from other well-known tools, including PrimeFilm XAs, a professional film lab, and the Sony a7III digital camera equipped with a macro lens.
In this video, I will guide you through my scanning process, which has allowed me to maintain an uncompressed archive of my valuable scans and provided me with greater control over the outcomes: #editorial.
Earlier, I mentioned the method that adjusts the black-and-white points of an image to their highest values as "histogram equalization." That was a mistake. This method is actually referred to as "histogram stretching" or "normalization."
The Analogue Photography Notebook serves as a continuation and a companion to Andrew Bellamy's Analog Photography: Reference Manual for Shooting Film.
Aerochrome is among the most costly and challenging films to work with, which might explain why so few have tried this stock. Today, I'm pushing those limits with the first-ever effort to redscale, also known as "greenscale," this color infrared film.
Fujifilm, Kodak, and Ilford (Harman) typically announce increases in film prices around once or occasionally twice a year. #editorial.
When color film is loaded with the emulsion side turned away from the lens, it results in darker images that are predominantly red. This process is known as redscaling. This guide details the mechanics behind it, where to purchase redscale film, how to create your own, and a unique technique to enhance the color variety.
Are you weary of numerous presets and filters that introduce grain to digital photos yet do not reflect the true essence of film photography? #editorial.
