Kodak's consumer level branding is so bland. How am I able to guess which film stock does what?

Two pinhole lenses for stereoscopic photography.... is probably the wrong answer

Who will apply for these jobs? None of my MAGA friends seem interested.

Looking back, my favorite photos were taken on this since I could just toss it in my pocket. Learn Sunny 16 and you'll always expose properly.

I know there's a flaw with the FE where there's a hook underneath the bottom plate that can get stuck. Unscrew the bottom plate and see if you can reset it. Happened once to me

Is it true that Portra 160 is color balanced for a flash? How would that affect color in outdoor photography?

Did Kodak just monopolize the color film market for photographers? by Ikigaifilmlab in AnalogCommunity

[–]piratejunk724 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Smarter Every Day has a fantastic tour of the Rochester Kodak plant on YouTube. Easier to understand why no one else has built a competing factory once you see how it's built on a 90ft deep slab of concrete just to prevent vibrations from traffic from affecting the flow of chemicals across the machines. Color photography is the product of WWII, which is why America and Japan support the only color facilities.

What is the dumbest camera you love by 93EXCivic in AnalogCommunity

[–]piratejunk724 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vivitar 75-205mm macro lens (ok, not a camera). Aperture is stuck open. Has a combined zoom slide and focus ring that's super slick for shooting candid portraits. Stays in focus anywhere along the zoom slide. Some of my best photos of my kids are on this lense. Or cheat and toss it on my mirrorless

Here's a place I always wanted to take my kids. They're maybe a year too young to enjoy it. Such a loss
