I recently purchased a Nikon FM with a 35mm AIS lens. I bought a Tri-X bw iso 400 film.
The last time I used a film camera was over twenty years ago.
I have been using fuji X-series digital cameras for quite a while now. My main genre is in street photography.
I cannot believe how blase I had become in snapping away to pick out the best images.
Suddenly when I have thirty-six exposures that I want to go to print has stopped me in my tracks. I now want every image to be worthy of putting in a gallery.
I now know I cannot just photoshop out distractions and crop out poorly composed frames.
I am using a handheld exposure meter to confirm my in-camera indicator is somewhere near.
My aim is to take my thirty-six exposures to a darkroom workshop where I can process and print the images myself,
so if anyone knows of such a workshop in Yorkshire, I would be most appreciative.
Beyond that, I can definitely recommend a return to analogue to reawaken your senses.
