In Processing
I have sent off the first 2 rolls of film. I do not know how long it will be and I am in no rush for the results, but I am beyond excited to see what happens.
Many takeaways in this process. Feelings, experience this far, price and anything else I can think of while typing. I do not think these out and make a scripted Blog, this is all my true thoughts and feelings I think about often and while typing, that why things are always so scattered.
First of all price, I can’t stand when people put what others are most interested in at the end it’s annoying and I am not trying to build the suspense.
Break down.
Film: Fuji 400 - $24.99
Processing: Least Camera - $70 (process 3 rolls of film in high resolution .tif format)
Shipping: $15 ($5 was for bubble wrap and it wasn’t even a lot.)
Total: Roughly $105 + some tax.
I had 3 rolls processed, 1 roll is from a disposable camera and is about 2-3 years old.
Again this was for high resolution scans in .tif format and a fee for me to receive my negatives back so that added some extra costs.
This photo above is taken from the same lens I took 85% of both rolls on my Sony A7RIII body.
Overall, I don’t really mess with my Sony anymore. When I do it is nowhere near the extent that I would. I don’t feel the need to edit as soon as I take a photo. I went an entire week before I looked at and edited some photos I have taken.
I think waiting to see if I fucked up is the most anxious thing. I don’t know if my settings could have been better, oh everything was shot in manual in both rolls of film.
Not knowing everything I shot, I have forgotten most of what I captured. One thing I did was if I took a photo of something with my film, I did not with my digital. I can remember some that I took, but mostly I can’t remember them all and that is so exciting.
I am most excited to see how the colors turn out.
I don’t want to get ahead of myself on any of this, but I will be having my first film session soon, with special ordered film and I can not wait.
Karmic 160 ISO is the film I will be using for my first session, the colors are so beautiful and I can not wait. I think using it in the winter in some snow will be amazing, but let’s not rush.
It’s safe to say that so far using film has been very beneficial to me. I am just really hoping that I did not mess up on the two rolls I sent in. I know I have a few photos that have potential to make me cry and I am just very excited to see how they turned out. I will update with a blog and in there Film Portfolio section the DAY I get the results!
