5 Frames… Of macro photography on Fuji Velvia 50 (35mm / EI 50 / Nikon FM2 + Nikon 105mm f/2.8 AI-s Micro-Nikkor + Nikon Pk-3 extension tube)

5 frames… of people with FujiFilm Velvia 50 and Rolleiflex 2.8GX
I’m getting back to my “summer experiment” -– testing medium format slide film. This time I’d like to share results from FujiFilm Velvia 50. Why do I call it “testing”?

I have shot lots of ILFORD black and white and Kodak Portra and a little Ektar 100, each has its own quirks and peculiarities – and to be honest, I haven’t yet come across a film stock that I […]

Film stock review: Fujifilm FUJICHROME Velvia 50 Professional (RVP 50)
I think there’s a pretty big misconception about shooting slide film.
