Analog India

Hey there. Welcome to another day on Analog India. I have been shooting film for years now and every day I come across something interesting in the analog world. Today I am going to share some of those things with you.

1. A lens worth knowing about

Something worth paying attention to. Indian markets have some great deals on vintage lenses. You can find good lenses from Pentax, Nikon, and Canon in the local camera markets. Just be careful about fungus and scratches. A review of the Konica Auto S2, a fixed-lens 35mm rangefinder camera. Of all similar cameras I’ve owned, it’s the one I kept.

3. Should we keep our negatives? A debate worth having

Found this interesting, worth sharing. Keeping negatives is a debate among film shooters here. Some say they are just archives; others say they are the real work. I tend to agree with the latter. In modern film photography, the digital file made from your negative is the working source. Source: blog.jimgrey.net Read more
