I opened a photo gellary in my private website. There are photos that I took not only by analog camera (PEN-FT) but also my digital camera (Fujifilm Finepix F410).
I wanted to fix the top page of my private website, but there was no enough time to do that. I'm going to relaunch my website in spring.
A scanner that now I have is sheetfeed scanner. It's so difficult to load the image of printed photo. (there was abnormal noise when it loaded the image, and the loaded image was a little tilted.) Colored images were OK, but I gave up to load images of photo in black and white. I will buy brandnew flathead scanner tomorrow.
At Feb.28th, I played the drums in the band called "OFF-tari", and I took pictures by PEN-FT during MC time on stage. Maybe I will show you the photos at the time Next week.
Next mounth, I plan to buy a cute toy camera, called LOMO's FISHEYE.
These photos are my first works by PEN-FT. I took these at the day when I have this camera. They are so nice photos even though there were no exposure meter, aren't they?
'BACKSISDE'
I bought a cool can badge at an used clothing shop, but the backside of this badge was also so cool, and I poped a shutter in spite of oneself. I love its nostalgic mood. :-)
It's a sudden occurrence for me! I got 'OLUMPUS PEN-FT' whici is one of Japanese famous classic cameras, and I went into the world of silver salt (film) camera. Touching the camera and taking pictures by PEN-FT make me happy. I love this camera, PEN-FT! I'm going to treasure it.
PEN-FT is a half-size camera which made in 1966! It's a lot older than me.
The PEN-FT that i got is this one, it's so beautiful, isn't it?
On the lens cover, there is ornamental initials like this... It's cool!
First, I could not load the film into camera very well, so I could not take photos. I thought for sure that i had taken photos full day, so when it became known that i could not take any pictures, i got a shock! I was given a harsh lesson of silver salt camera.
Suzu who is one of my friends that likes cameras very much, found the data of instruction book at the time for me, so i downloaded that data(image) immediately. One of PEN-FT's feature is built-in exposure meter, but now we can not use that function since it is run on mercury battery that is banned. So I have to adjust exposure and speed by guess.
Anyway, I took pictures 2 rolls of films for 27 prints soon. Since it's half-size camera, I could take 54 pictures at a roll of film for 27 prints. Pictures that i took by this camera are cut in half lengthwise, you know. When I take a look inside finder, i can see a vertically long square, not horizontally long.
Unlike digital camera, there is really exciting time for waiting my film is developed. And the photos that came out, have retro-flavored mood. I want to take my snare drums's photo at an early date.
I'm going to open an online gallery named 'Get A Kick Out Of Snapping'in my private site space.
