Portraits of Cars (2)
Continuing my look-out for old or interesting cars on the streets of perth, here is my latest few. As with everything on this blog, all photos are taken on film cameras.
Empty Spaces – city and beach
Empty Spaces – South Perth
Empty Spaces – Cottesloe Beach
My Contax 645
This was my first film from my new film camera. It is a Contax 645 medium format film camera.
The camera is much bigger and heavier than a my 35mm camera, but the image size of 645 is nearly 2.7x larger than that of 35mm i have been using. Therefore I am hoping better quality. This is helped by the very high quality 80mm Ziess f2 lens it comes with.
The one drawback with this camera is that I am finding it hard to focus, the auto focus is way off and the focusing screen is quite dark. This is going to slow things down dramatically when shooting portraits, which is what I hoped to do with it. Stay tuned!
Portraits Of Cars
Over the last 2 months I have been pulling over when driving somewhere and taking a photo of interesting old cars. Like everything on this blog, they are all taken on film camera/s, mainly with a portra 400.
