I started using a camera around 1950 and the bug has never left me. Apart from a spell working semi-pro in connection with my work as an architect, I have always been a “keen amateur”. In the 1990s I gave up my darkroom and have worked in hybrid fashion since, shooting on film and then completing the following stages digitally.

Caveat emptor, buyer beware: Restoring a Flexaret IV

Avatar photoby Tony WarrenNovember 13, 2021November 13, 2021

If you have had a look at my article on the Goldilocks of camera designs you will have realised that I am a bit of a fan of the Twin Lens Reflex (TLR), a type I have used for around half of my 60 or so years in photography. Unfortunately, in my declining years I […]

Using filters with monochrome film

Avatar photoby Tony WarrenJanuary 31, 2021July 31, 2021

What is exposure? How to use light meters in film photography

Avatar photoby Tony WarrenMarch 1, 2020July 31, 2021

The TLR, a Goldilocks camera design

Avatar photoby Tony WarrenNovember 22, 2019July 31, 2021

The Twin Lens Reflex (TLR) is a camera design over 130 years old and it’s almost a hundred years since its now-familiar appearance first was brought to the mass market by Franke & Heidecke and subsequently, so widely and successfully copied.
