Shot with a Nikon FA and a Nikkor 28mm f/2.8 on Polaroid CN 400 35mm film. I’ve passed this mural by Kent Twitchell, hundreds of times driving north-bound on the 101 freeway going through down town LA. Only now did I actually take a photo of it and Googled who’s in the picture. She is […]

Nikon FA matrix metering

By Desi Baytan | Published: August 6, 2012

Taken with a Nikon FA, Nikkor 50mm 1:1.2, Polaroid 400 CN (Fujicolor 400 Super G emulsion). Though I’m not a master with exposure, I know how to meter in camera especially on manual mode. And what I use is an Olympus OM-2n or an OM-4. I use the built-in meter most times. Â Sometimes, I use […]

Olympus OM-4T,Â Zuiko Auto-S 50mm f/1.2, Fujicolor NPS 160 Pro. I’ve used probably some five rolls of Fujicolor’s NPS 160 film now and what I’ve noticed about this “cool” film is it’s fine uniform grain and bluish/purplish tones.
