Don't let anyone convince you that the Pentax 17 is a worthless camera, or half-frame in general. I'm very impressed by the sharpness of these Kodak Ultramax 400 negatives. #photography #kodak #pentax #film

Testing street with a very obscure camera. The Nikon S1000pj. The world's first camera with a built-in projector! This old 12mp relic was way ahead of it's time. The projector can display your images up to three meters wide on a wall. Gimmicky, but cool.

So I bought the two newest half-frame cameras. Fujifilm X-Half and the Pentax 17 Film Camera. Can't wait to put them to use. #photography #pentax #fujifilm

More light hunting. Trying to make light the subject of my photography these days, while purposely using old, outdated cameras.

I'm practicing my technique with painting with light. Mainly exposing for the highlights

Nikon D800. Destroyed the highlights with this one, but it still makes me happy.

Canon 5D jpeg colors. Reminds me of 90's slide film.

One of the best entry-level, pro cameras you can buy today. The Canon 5D "Classic". This is my third one (I end up giving them away to friends) and I still keep coming back. Film-like color with a raw shooting experience. Picked up camera and lens for $265.

Took a trip to Arizona with my "cheap" Nikon D800. Nikon DSLRs produce beautiful color.
