Apparently it’s Folder Week. Zeiss Ikon Nettar 515, cleaned up, loaded and ready to go. This model is approx 1937 and was gifted to me. After a thorough clean up it’s looking good. Never used one before and so fingers crossed for the results… #FolderWeek #believeinfilm #filmphotography

Edge Hill station, Liverpool, is one of the oldest railway stations in the world. This part was opened in 1836 and has been in continuous use ever since.

My Nikon F 401 has died. PCB board fault apparently. This was a gift from a dear friend who died last year. So a double blow. I know far worse things can happen but it makes me sad. I intend to try the 35 - 135mm lens out with my old Nikon FE. #believeinfilm #Nikon

I do enjoy comparisons. Thanks Dave. davewhenhamphotography.wordpress.com/2026/02/07/c...

Result from my ’field test’ with the Canon R100 and vintage Industar 50-2 3.5/50 lens using the M42-RF adapter by Urth. No post-processing. I think the old soviet lens based on the Ziess Tessar design performed well. The serial number dates the lens from 1970. #photography #nature #Canon #Camellia

First sign of sun in a while so went for a walk with my Canon R100 and a vintage Industar 50-2 3.5/50 lens using the M42-RF adapter by Urth. First ‘field, test. #Canon #Industar #Urth #photography #VintageGlass Focus peaking was very useful with this manual lens. Results to follow.

‘Albert Dock & Tate Liverpool’, Zenit B, Helios 44M lens and a Leningrad light meter on a dull flat winters day. Very little wind and so the water reflections are nice. #IlfordXP2 #BelieveInFilm #photography #filmphotography #filmsnotdead #blackandwhitephotography #AlbertDockLiverpool #IlfordPhoto

Not been too well recently and so I’m doing my best to catch up. ‘Still Water’, Zenit B, Ilford XP2, Industar 50-2 lens. I used a Leningrad light meter on this dull and flat day. #IlfordXP2 #BelieveInFilm #photography #filmphotography #filmsnotdead #blackandwhitephotography

Not posted much recently. Christmas cold and cough! 🤧 But I would like to wish everyone out there a really lovely Christmas. #BelieveInFilm #photography #filmphotography #filmsnotdead #blackandwhitephotography Here are some very old decorations from our tree, had some of these since I was a child.

My film came back from the lab a while ago but I’ve been too busy to post anything until now. ‘High Rise’, Zenit B, Meyer Gorlitz Orestegor 200mm lens. I used a Leningrad light meter on a dull flat day. #IlfordXP2 #BelieveInFilm #photography #filmphotography #filmsnotdead #blackandwhitephotography

While I’m waiting for my film to come back from the lab I took another look at an image I made with my oldest camera, my father’s 90+ year old Mayfair Box camera. A scene from Waterhead in the Lake District. #HP5 #BelieveInFilm #photography #filmphotography #filmsnotdead #blackandwhitephotography

Finishing off a roll of Ilford XP2 in my Zenit B but first a drink and bite to eat, then off to capture some interesting clouds in the hope the light holds. #CamerasAndDrinks #ilfordXP2 #ZenitB #BelieveInFilm #photography #filmphotography #filmsnotdead

Zenit B and Meyer Görlitz Orestegor 200mm. Kodak Ultramax. Sadly it looks like the bright sun has created either lens flare or I have. Light leak I’ve not noticed before. #BelieveInFilm #photography #SlowPhotography
