A little while ago I bit the bullet and bought a Nikon film body – a F80. May as well have a film body that’s a bit automatic and takes the same lens mount as my digital.<\/p>\n

So, I got it and thought “hrrm… I better run a roll of film through it to make sure it works”. Off to the fridge i went to find the cheapest, shittiest roll of film possible… I found “Walgreens” brand film. Manufactured by one of many, bought for cheap, and run through the F80.<\/p>\n

Some shots turned out pretty good. I have the full set (most of the roll) up on flickr<\/a>. A few choice ones are:<\/p>\n

Which due to some nice accident of lighting, turned out pretty good. IIRC this was pretty late at night and I was editing photos as Michael came over (bringing much needed beer).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Leah and I went bushwalking… so had to snap a shot of her. I do like the Nikon 50mm as a portrait lens. The film… well… it was cheap, but not too bad actually.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>A shallow depth of field can be a lot of fun. Although not entirely sure how I feel about the bokeh….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Which has some odd colours. Nice, but odd.<\/p>\n

I like my “new” body. It’ll be fun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
