On film photography
A while back a got a mail from Brian where he told me about a new blog, a film photography blog. I think it looks god, but overwhelmed with work I have not had time to check it out thouroughly. A task for this weekend. Hope you’ll pay Feeling Negative? a visit too.
And more…
I have a new site in production myself, a place where you’ll be able to create a blog of your own :) But it’s not quite finished for viewing yet.
October 1st has been announced as a international film buying day. There is a group on Flickr created by Chris Bloom, that you can join. Heres a quote from the statement:
“I ask all who enjoy shooting on film to go out on the same day, October 1, and buy a roll (or rolls or sheets for that matter!) of film. I’m sure the sudden spike in film sales would be noticed [...]”
A noble task indeed!
Film buyers day
I have read in several places now that Kodachrome production will end. I thought this was old news, but I might be suffering from deja vu. Sad, surely, but I have to admit I never actually used it. But that’s true for many old things which I love, I use them today instead. If you wan’t to read more there’s a thread on MFlenses, feel free to give more source in the comments.

I made a little film about Yashica J-7 and Yashinon-Dx 50mm/1.7 :) I’m quite new to Youtube so forgive possible loss in imagequality.
Did you think your 126-camera was obsolete? Well, you can buy the stuff at Frugal Photographer. They also give ideas on where to process. Or even load the 126-film cartridge with 35mm film.
Some interesting reading on the film Kodachrome.
Took the Yashica ML 35mm/2.8 out in the woods the other day. Just wanted to show how sharp it can be.
