jessica_jones7 Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 <p>Hi yall ^_^<br> My name is Jess, and this past year I have decided to dive into the world of soul stealing. I have always played with regular point & shoots but seem to break them all. A year or so ago I started picking up Polaroid Land cameras at thrift stores and estate sales and have spent some time lugging them around on my travels, capturing the world on a Polaroid! NOW I am dabbing in older 35mm cameras for their rustic abilities and convenience (well, compared to polaroid!).<br> Still learning every day, and hoping this community can help! I do have a few photos in my gallery for your viewing pleasure ;)</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Gammill Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 <p>Hey Jess and welcome! Glad to know someone is still interested in 35mm film cameras. That is mostly what I use. You should try black & white film in your 35mm cameras so you can develop the film yourself (surprisingly easy to do). What Polaroids are you using? If its an older roll film Polariod there may be a way to use conventional sheet film in them. Check the archives for some posts on that subject if you're interested.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessica_jones7 Posted October 28, 2012 Author Share Posted October 28, 2012 <p>Hosteen - Thank you! That is me in the picture, but obviously provided by someone else :)<br> Mike - I haven't learned to develop my own yet, but looking forward to the possibility of learning how! I have been using land cameras 100 & 450 with Fuji film I get from B&H. I haven't heard about sheet film though, now I am intrigued!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starshooter Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 <p>Nice, very nice. Love to know what kind of older 35mm cameras you use. I found a great site on the Internet and cannot stop buying them, sometimes for the price of a latte plus shipping.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
