I started “5 Frames With…” with Hamish over at 35mmc. The idea being to create a series of short, accessible articles showing off both the beauty of film stocks and the capabilities of film cameras and lenses.
I focus on the former here and Hamish focuses on the latter. Anyone can contribute and the series has proven to be both informative and very popular!
It’s been a fun series to do, so here’s my top ten list of 5 Frames With articles on EMULSIVE this year.
