A Rolleicord arrived for no reason at all.
Every now and then the universe or alcohol decides I should own more cameras. I really wanted to test out a TLR camera like a Rolleiflex and guess what, someone I know gave me a Rolleicord to test out for a few weeks.

The X100V, the best camera for travel photography.
Переглядів 14Місяць тому
I recently went on a trip to Vienna, Austria. I decided to take my X100V as my only camera for the whole trip. It’s small and light enough to either go in a large coat pocket or hang from my shoulder all day with no problems. The image quality is excellent and it had full manual controls for everything when I need them. It was a great trip and the X100V performed like a charm, it really is the ...

I have recently been getting back into film photography, I was looking for a decent 35mm film camera that wont break the bank. I found the Nikon FM, it’s a classic 35mm film camera introduced in 1977, known for its robust, fully mechanical design and manual control, making it a favourite among photography enthusiasts and professionals. Built with a metal body, it is durable and compact, with a ...
My first film photography for 30 years with a Nikon FM2 and Ilford HP5
Переглядів 1,6 тис.2 місяці тому
I haven’t used film for my photography since the 1990’s. When digital photography started, I left film behind. Now 30 years later, with AI ruining photography, it is time to get back into film. I wanted a camera that was manual, that gave me full control without the need for even a battery to operate it. After a Drunken search one night on UA-cam and Ebay I found a Nikon FM2, it came with a 28m...

I really like old film cameras, this is a 360 degree view of a 6 x 6 format Agfa Isolette that takes 120 film. Made from 1937 to 1960 these classic cameras are still available to buy for very little money and are capable of fantastic image quality.
Drunken Camera Haul
Переглядів 8062 місяці тому
It's not a good idea to get drunk whilst surfing the internet with a loaded credit card. I make it a rule to only own two cameras at anyone time, so check out this video to see what happened after a beer of six. The result is a haul of film cameras dating back to the 1950's and 1970's. Keep an eye out for the reviews and images from these cameras coming soon.
AI just destroyed photography!
Переглядів 583 місяці тому
AI can produce images that are as good as most cameras. Will this kill photography? Most of it, yes, but not all. In a world of fakes the real will become king. People will crave the real, you cannot get more real than film. I predict a huge increase in film use over the next few years because people want real memories not fakes made by AI or a smartphone with clever edits. Use a film camera, d...

I don't like mobile phones and so wanted a real camera as my everyday carry (EDC). It needs to be small, light robust, have a flash and be cheap. What would you choose? What the video to see what I went for.
I bought a Nikon D700 again!
Переглядів 6 тис.3 місяці тому
Have you ever bought the same camera more that once? Over the years I have bought many cameras but sometimes I sell a camera, only to miss it and then go out and re-buy it. I think these cameras are the ones you are meant to use, they are the cameras that speak to you and you owe it to yourself to use them. There are only very few cameras that this has happened to me with, the first is the D700.
The perfect camera.

The Leica M Typ 246 was Leica's second try at a digital monochrome camera. It's often overlooked with all the attention on the M10M or M11M. The M Typ 246 offer great value for money, excellent image quality and is an overlooked gem.

Переглядів 603 місяці тому
I thought it would be fun to do a photo series of "one photo per day" for August 2024. Each photo was taken on that day with either a Leica M246 or Leica SL. On my website there is also a blog showing each image and a bit about why and how it was taken. Hope you enjoy. www.djbimage.com/blog/1-picture-per-day-august-2024
