Real Talk: SX-70 Talk

Just finished making a video going over why i love my SX-70 camera. I really believe anyone who is interested in instant photography to get an SX-70 as their first camera. It's a beautiful tool as well as a wonderful collectors piece.

Enjoy the video!
PLUS bonus wallpaper for you to show your SX-70 love.

Mint Flash Preview!

The Impossible Project just recently released the MINT flash for SX70 folding cameras. It is a reusable flash bar which attaches to your favourite SX70 camera!

It looks super slick and packs a bunch of neat features to help you shoot your TIP film in the dark or at hip house parties. Here are some key features:

FEATURES

• Extremely compact and light flash unit for your SX-70 camera
• Easy LED display on state of flash settings and energy
• Detailed user manual
• Powered by 2 AAA cells (not included!)

SPECIAL IMPOSSIBLE FEATURES

• This flash allows you to use 600 ASA film in SX-70 cameras, thanks to a special, switchable ND-compensation mode (TOTALLY AWESOME FEATURE)
• Light temperature is optimized for use with Impossible Silver and Color Shade films

It seems a little pricey at $89.99 US plus shipping, which is a lot for us Canadians. :( I am gonna hold out for now but I think I'll be picking one up eventually. I am really intrigued by the possibility of letting you use 600 ASA films in your SX70 without those ND annoying filters.

Analog Camera Collection

Been a while since my last update (not surprising there!). Just wanted to share my camera collection with you all and I made a quick video to show and tell :)

This is just a preview and I will follow up with more individual videos for each camera.

Enjoy thanks!

Shooting TIP PX600 in the COLD

It started snowing, so I decided to test the Impossible Project's (TIP) PX600 silver shade film outside in the cold! I want to share some tips through my experience.

MY TIPS:

1. Wear gloves! - It gets cold and your hands will numb when handling your camera and film. *Preferably thin gloves so you can still operate your camera properly!
2. Compose ahead - Always look around and compose shots in your head, this will help with wasting less time and losing precious body heat.
3. Keep film away from light - Shoot with a light shield or be quick and shield your film as it comes out! TIP film is sensitive to light during the development process.
4. Keep your film warm - When your film is developing it is affected by the temperature! so keep it warm preferably with your own body heat. The more warmth you give your film while it is developing the more dark contrast you are going to get.

TIP: PX70 Review!

New year! NEW POST!

Happy 2012 everybody! I've been super busy with school and work so it is true that I have left this blog on the back burner. But hey whenever I have time I still wanna keep up to date with all the great things that are happening in the instant photography world.

I finally took the time to record a short video on the new PX70 film from the Impossible Project.
Here is the video:

Silver Shade Portraits

There is something really special about taking portraits using monochrome film. Colour is great, but there is almost something soulful and deep when you take out the pop of colour. Do you agree?

More after the jump.
