Nikon F3 - Film Camera
Some professional photographers from the 70's regard the Nikon F3 extremely highly. Some would even go as far as saying that it's “one of the best cameras ever made.
One of the features that no doubt made the Nikon F3 such a fan favorite was its semi-auto exposure control. This particular feature made it simpler for photographers to take well-exposed images. It took the guesswork out of photography but still afforded the photographer great creative control over the whole process. The aperture priority mode lets users focus more on the making of the image, instead of fiddling with a myriad of dials and knobs to adjust settings.

Manual lenses used


The Dark Room
I shot two reels of Black & White film, IlfordAPS400.
I took images of doors and windows, which can be viewed on negatives. I did not use any of the film images taken, as I needed to keep consistency within the final 15 images being exhibited.

My Film Images developed

I thoroughly enjoyed using the film camera and then processing the film. The negatives were then scanned into digital format. The contrast and depth of clarity in these images has inspired me to continue to shoot and experiment with film photography.



Fish Eye & Wide Angle Lenses for Iphone



The lenses clip on and sit on top of the built in iPhone camera lens. See below how the iPhone image looks as you take the shot.
This is a creative way of adding a different look to a standard iPhone image. The reason I used the fish eye lens, was because I was trying to illustrate through imagery of being enclosed in my own world, as if in a bubble.
