Fun film camera — Higher Ground 4x4

Oct 30, 2014 12:43 AM #1

Picked up a cheap plastic 120 format camera that takes 35mm so it exposes all the way out to the edge over the sprocket holes. Fun for double exposures too.
Noel shot twice on the same piece of film. All done in camera.

Looks like I'll need to get some faster film (800) since shadows are hard to shoot in with it.
Also think I'll get a different used scanner since I have to scan each negative separately (shops can't scan/print to edge) and the old one I have takes too long and can streak.

I haven't looked through many yet. If I find some more that turned out I'll add

I had a scanner, let me see if its still here or if we gave it to goodwill

Cool thanks. Has to have the negative scanning thing.

I have some 800 on order so I won't loose so many to shadows.

This worked well

This is awesome to see! When you were telling me about it I couldn't visualize it.

Got a couple decent ones using a Kirkland film roll I found sitting in a Goodwill store's camera. They let me have it for free.
I'm thinking it's been expired since around 2003. I'll need to increase exposure times dramatically if they are that old again. These were probably around 20-30 seconds. That means holding down the little handle without shaking the camera or tripod.

Fuji 400 in Red Creek. Tripod on the first and a hold down on the shutter release.

Way cool. So does it kill you not being able to make adjustments and just waiting to see whats on the roll?

Dec 08, 2014 03:27 PM #12

The waiting is hard but somehow still fun. You get half the photos a roll says since they are panoramish style. So a 24 roll gets 12 so the waiting to finish it isn't too too long.
I have to scan the negatives myself. Slight adjustments are still made sometimes with exposure/color since the scanner can be a bit guessy with that stuff because of the sprocket holes etc.

So this is awesome
