5 Frames with a Holga 120GN and Kentmere 400 in North Jutland

fleetwoodler — Tue, 21 Jul 2026 15:00:55 +0000

I spent three months working in North Jutland this spring, and it became a bit of a ritual: whenever friends came to visit, I’d take them out hiking either along the coast, through woodlands or the dunes. As most of them weren’t photographers, they came for the walks, the wind, and the company, and I...

Minolta P’s Review – More And Less for Pocket Panoramics

Gale Lee — Mon, 20 Jul 2026 09:00:54 +0000

The concept of doing more with less is nothing new; in many ways, it’s a fundamental principle of good design. That fact is readily apparent when it comes to the tools we use in our daily lives, be they physical or digital. When it comes to cameras, the consequences of getting this wrong– of doing...

No tools, no skill, no know-how – the simplest way to convert a lens to LTM

Agata Urbaniak — Sun, 19 Jul 2026 09:00:46 +0000

It’s been almost 9 years since I got my first lens in Leica thread mount. It was Canon 135mm f/3.5 and I was blown away by how well it stood the test of time even though it was a good quarter of a century older than any lens I have used on digital up to...

Gemini on Film – the Cameras and Films Used on the Gemini Space Missions – Pt1

Andrew Long — Sat, 18 Jul 2026 09:00:48 +0000

I had a rather significant birthday this year (!) and my family bought me a rather unusual present – a reel of 70mm colour transparencies from the July 1966 Gemini X space mission (the upcoming 60th anniversary being relevant here…). They bought it from eBay, trusting in an American seller that it was the genuine...

Leica 0 Review and Photos with 1923 Limitations

Neal Wellons — Fri, 17 Jul 2026 09:00:58 +0000

In 1923 Leitz introduced the Leica 0 camera which was a test bed for Leitz employees to use and give feedback. That led to the development of the first commercially successful 35mm production camera in 1925, the Leica I.

I’m a Photographer Who Builds Tools — How Two Mac Apps Grew Out of My Own Workflow

Michael Damböck — Thu, 16 Jul 2026 15:00:01 +0000

I have roughly fifteen packs of Fujifilm FP-100C instant film in my fridge. I know I should use them. I’ve been telling myself that for years. They’re discontinued, precious, and sitting there at 4°C while I shoot digital 95% of the time. I keep them because they remind me of something I love about photography...

Viltrox 26mm 2.8 EVO Review – A New Autofocus Pancake Wide Lens

Hamish Gill — Wed, 15 Jul 2026 12:00:10 +0000

This is a review of the new Viltrox 26mm 2.8mm EVO. This lens feels like it has landed on my desk at just the right time. I’ve recently been looking for both a wider-angle lens and something a little more low profile on the camera. I had even been thinking about picking up one of...

Being There – Everyday Presences Passing Through

Cristian Ghisleni — Wed, 15 Jul 2026 09:00:37 +0000

I’ve been working on this series over the past couple of years, mostly photographing in urban environments — with occasional moments along the coast — observing how people inhabit space in their everyday routines. This series looks at human presence in its most ordinary state: not the event, but the interval; not the central action,...
