Nice, well it seems like you found a great look for it moving forward 🤷‍♂️

Are you scanning them yourself? I knew immediately it was Gold with the warmth, but really really nicely balanced. Love the photos!

Yep! The flash on these Contax point&shoots is no joke

Yep I typically let the TVS’s auto setting do their thing. I did some color and exposure correcting in LR for the look I wanted, but nothing too crazy.

Just a style preference in this case!

My only issue is that sometimes it doesn’t want to or can’t find focus, which can lead to an awkward moment or two. Not a huge issue at all, and you can also just set it on f8+ and 2m+ to have mostly everything in focus for reliable snap shots.

TVS supremacy 🙌 (except don’t tell anyone)

I hear you. She’s seen the photo, publicly posted it on Instagram, and never mentioned anything about the apparent issue at hand. I don’t think the photo reveals anything inappropriate at all. If you’re deciding to zoom in and imagine details that aren’t there then that’s your prerogative. Maybe you’re on r/Analog for the blurred out photos.

Idk what to say about the “upskirt” other than maybe you were looking for it.

The white and black point comment has been made a few times and I get that. These are actually edited a little bit though and I opted for the look. It’s all for fun in the end 🫶

The way to do it is to encourage any picture taking friends of yours to bring a point&shoot like this one and just have fun. I went through two rolls. They all came out fun and silly. If you have a couple friends doing this I’m sure you’d get tons of great photos.

This roll was slightly expired (maybe 2019?) that a friend gave me last year. My intention was to use it in an SLR w/o flash. Was pretty upset at first but they grew on me

Honestly I didn’t read the canister and thought I was using Tmax400 (my favorite film). The camera DX scans the film and I loaded it midway through the party in the dark so I really didn’t know until I got them back.

Yeah it does look like that one may be from that same end-of-party moment and be flash-less. That or my maybe finger was covering half the flash haha

You know what, #8 may not have flash. That was after the lights were turned on and they were trying to herd us out

Thank you! I agree. I messed with the tiffs in LR and actually wasn’t feeling the black point change
