Analogue Adventures Part 42: A wedding with Eastman Double-X 200

Kodak Eastman Double-X 200

Some of you may remember the last time I shot Kodak Double-X, which was completely mouldy and gave very interesting results. I had another roll and kept thinking what I could possibly do with it. When a friend got married I decided that it was the right opportunity to get this film out and create some special pictures with it. 
Processing and scanning was done at urbanfilmlab in Germany, the pictures in this article are from one roll of film which was exposed as ISO 125.

Analogue Photography – Part 1: A Personal Journey into Film Photography 1/2

Canon A1 | Black & White Negative film | Agfapan 400

With the growing interest in analogue photography, as Bastian so inspiringly explores in his Analogue Adventures, I too have decided to create a series of film-related articles. I’ve chosen not to use the same title, as my own relationship with film photography goes back to a time when it was simply photography to me. While Film Photography would feel like the most natural title, I’ve decided to go with Analogue Photography instead, to keep a sense of continuity with Bastian’s series.

Analogue Adventures – Part 41: Fujichrome Velvia 50

Fujichrome Velvia 50

Fujichrome Velvia 50 is one of the few slide films still in production. Many people swear by it for its punchy colors and superior image quality. Is that all true? Let’s have a closer look to find out.
Processing (E-6) was done at ProLab in Stuttgart, scanning was done by one of our readers via a DSLR. The pictures you see in this article are from one roll.

Analogue Adventures – Part 40: Fujichrome Provia 100F

Fujichrome Provia 100F Slide Film

In the Fujichrome world, Provia is supposed to be the more neutral slide film compared to Velvia. I wasn’t a huge fan of Velvia 100, so let’s see how this Provia 100F worked out for me.
Processing (E-6) and scanning was done at urbanfilmlab in Germany. The pictures you see in this article are from one roll.
