No, this ode is not about the camera, lens and film mentioned in the headline and shown in the photo below. The praises of NEOPAN 100 ACROS film, the „F“ and the Micro-Nikkor have been proclaimed in countless other contributions on this site and on many others. This is more about a device that lends […]

5 Frames… Of Eid-al-Fitr 2022 on Fuji Superia 1600 and a Pentax ME (35mm format / EI 1600 / SMC Pentax-M 28mm f/2.8) – by Yusuf Husain
This story begins on Eid, the last day of the holy month of Ramadan. Usually, on Eid, you give cash as gifts. But instead, a friend gave me an expired roll of Fuji Superia 1600. Context: Superia 1600 wasn’t necessarily a hard film to find when it was still produced but these days, it’s reached […]
Por las Calles del Viejo San Juan (Through the Streets of Old San Juan) on Fuji Superia X-TRA 400
If someone offered me an airline ticket anywhere in the world to photograph a city, I’d have to pick Old San Juan in Puerto Rico. I lived in this special place for three years (from 2013 – 2016) and it continues to captivate me. While living there, I mainly shot with my digital cameras, but […]
Unidentified Black Male, or 8 out of 10 frames: Creating a small body of personal portraiture on Fuji FP-100c instant film with a Graflex Crown Graphic
In my second year of participating in the EMULSIVE Secret Santa, I was fortunate enough to be gifted a box of discontinued Fuji FP-100c colour peel-apart instant film. For some of you, the mere mention of FP-100c might inspire heart palpitations, be it for the rare and somewhat elusive nature of this beloved, now-discontinued film […]
5 Frames of… Tulips on overexposed Fujicolor C200 (Leica R3, Macro-Elmarit 60mm f/2.8) – by Charles Mutter
I am endlessly fascinated by tulips. So far, so unoriginal. Even supermarket bouquets can yield extraordinary beauty, especially if left a little longer than most florists would deem appropriate. And our local florist often has really unusual, dramatic blooms – parrot tulips, “double” tulips that burst out like peonies… Usually, I photograph them indoors, the […]

Instant Memory: Textile collages on vintage found Polaroids and contemporary Fujifilm INSTAX film
This series of textile collages began with finding a collection of seemingly random Polaroid images from my late Great Aunt Thelma’s house. As one of the executors of her estate, my father asked me and my mother to help go through her belongings at her small home in Oklahoma. Among our findings were boxes and […]

My return to film: Roy Shiro
Many photographers look back at their work at the end of the year, to assess, critique, and, if you’re like me, to convince themselves that they’re moving forward with their work. This year was a bit different in some respects for me, as the end of the year marks the one-year anniversary of my move […]

5 Frames… +1 in Alsace with both new and old Fuji NEOPAN ACROS 100 on a Suzuki Optical Co. Press Van
It is now over a year since I showed you my 5 frames of expired Fuji NEOPAN ACROS 100 with my Suzuki Optical Co. Press Van in Rotterdam (Netherlands). This year I took my vacation in the Haut-Rhin in Alsace, France with both versions of Fuji NEOPAN ACROS: the original expired but stored for 5 […]

Unrequited love: The Fuji GA645 Professional
I’ll admit my bias upfront: I adore the GA. This camera delivers sharp, perfectly exposed negatives with a minimum of fuss and worry.
5 (6) frames… Of double exposures with my EMULSIVE Santa on Fuji Pro 400H
You know what’s fun? Photography. You know what I like about photography? Sharing it. Sharing prints, drinks or talks, or whatever else you might want to share. And speaking of sharing, I’m rather happy to share this small experiment, on EMULSIVE nonetheless, which might very well be the best place to share film-related stuff on […]

5 Frames… On a Zeiss Ikon Nettar 517/16 and Fuji Pro 400H (120 Format / EI 400)
It all started a year or so ago now. I am a newcomer to the art of photography and I have now collected quite a few pieces of digital kit. I particularly enjoy sea and landscape photography, especially at dawn when there are very few people about. I am also lucky in that I live […]
