This city needs more colour.

Your craving for everything artsy.
Bursts of photography-related content.
Discoveries into the painting realm of tutorials.
A splash of randomness here and there.
...In short, let's art!

A new video when I'm not procrastinating...

How to digitalize these photos omg😂😂 i really need to know 😢
@MayShi
@MayShi 14 дней назад
There are multiple options! When you send your finished film to your local lab they can also scan them for you. Or if you are ambitious and more into shooting you can invest in a flatbed scanner and scan yourself. Last option is to shot the negatives with a macro lens. I hope that helps!

Yes, the lens is surprisingly sharp for what it is and soft for when you need at the f3.5. I think it's one of those hidden gem film cameras and it's my main 35mm nowadays! Definitely dig yours out and go shooting with it, you won't regret. :)

i need help, i got this camera and a roll of film, i put it in and everything so far so good. however i took it until the next day to take a picture but it only started to advance to the end of the roll and would not rewind in any way. I changed the batteries and tried again but the marker (next to the shutter button) only went to the letter S, and when I try to take a picture a red light comes on and I can't take it. I hope someone can help me 😭.

Hi May! Thanks a lot for the video. I’ve bought the same camera just a few days ago. After I’ve installed the film sign E didn’t change. And I have no idea what does it mean:( Btw can you please tell me what button is for the film remote?
@MayShi
@MayShi 6 месяцев назад
Hi! E means "empty" it probably did not catch the film when you spooled it in. Make sure to have the film strip reach the other side all the way and hook it onto the the little groves for it to catch properly. If it catches then it should say '1' What do you mean by the film remote? Here's a guide that might help. The 120ED is similar to the 130ED: www.butkus.org/chinon/nikon/nikon_lite_touch_zoom_150/nikon_zoom_touch_150.htm I hope this helps!

Lovely video. This one was recommended to me after I watched one on MKR Shoots Film about her PC35 AF (not the -M model). Colour negative film prefers to be overexposed rather than underexposed, so it is better to choose a lower ASA/ISO setting. Snow scenes also benefit from overexposure. To get gleaming white snow, you may need up to two stops overexposure, depending on how much snow is in the picture. Thus, for this 800 ASA/ISO film and camera, choose either 400, or even 200.

I did try the Ilford 400 B&W with great results. My second roll was a cine still D400 and the pictures look as if they were taken in 1981.. proportionally the images are very well put together but they look old.(vintage) I still have to develop the Portra 400 color and Fujifilm 400. So far my favorites photos are the B&W ones (Ilford 400)
@MayShi

Try cleaning the peep hole and lens with a micro-fibre cloth. When you open the back you should also see a glass, try to blow it with a rocket blower. You can also just check after shooting and pray for the best. Whereabouts do you live? And congrats on the find! :)

Hi, I'm interested in buying a camera like this, I'm a beginner, do you think it could be a good option? And a doubt I have is whether what I see in the viewfinder is close to the photographed image? I have many options of brands and models and I have many doubts about which would be the best option for me. 😊
@MayShi

Hello! I think the Canon AE-1 is a good beginner option. But have you looked into point and shoot film cameras? I would actually recommend those instead of these SLR type cameras if you are new to photography. For the Canon AE-1, the viewfinder is quite accurate with the photo in terms of framing and composition, colours and exposure will depend on your film stock.
