This blog also starts with my turn back to basics. I have definitely been plagued by Gear Acquisition Syndrome, thinking about how to use different functions, features, which lenses to buy, rigging up for video, etc. Recently I have been fortunate to have been loaned a classic film rangefinder of German origin. It brought me back to the days when I was shooting with a Nikon FM – no autofocus, limited metering capability, no EVF or LCDs. It made me think more about making photos and liked the feeling of slowing down. The images above are quick scans of images I made with the first roll of Kodak Tri-X 400 I’ve exposed in over 27 years. I love the grain.
