Heya, I’m Julian, and this will be – hopefully – my first contribution to 5 Frames, a series of articles that I enjoy a lot. It was in March or April this year (2022) when I found that roll of ILFORD PAN F PLUS while strolling through a flea market. One reason I bought it […]

5 Frames… Of ILFORD PAN F PLUS with a little help from Ordnance Survey (120 Format / EI 50 / Yashica Mat-124G)
When the easing of lockdown rules came into play in the UK I was concerned. I didn’t want the nation to rush things and for cases of Covid-19 to increase again. On the other hand though, I was also thankful that it would mean I was free to venture further afield if I chose to. […]

5 Frames… With a Leica M3, Summarit 50mm f/1.5 LTM and ILFORD PAN F (EI 50 / 35mm format)
Leica’s 50mm f/1.5 Summarit, which comes in M- or LTM mounts — I bought last year a mint LTM lens copy which I can use with an adapter on my Leica M3 — is often reviewed as an old vintage lens not being sharp enough in the center of the frame wide open. Even though […]

Olympus OM-1 and Zuiko Auto-Macro 50mm f/3.5 – Mercedes van study

5 Frames… With ILFORD PAN F PLUS (EI 50 / 120 format / Vermeer 6×6 Pinhole)
Earlier in 2019, I built a shoebox pinhole camera, and had a blast using it. But I wanted something a bit more reliable in its outcomes, so I went online and ordered a handmade pinhole from Poland. The Vermeer 6×6 Pinhole Camera came with a 34mm focal length, and a 2mm pinhole that results in […]

The Paradox of cluttered contact sheets
Contact sheets are a fantastic resource for film photographers, and can also be used by digital artists – although applying these ideas to a digital workflow can often distort the result (but I’ll come back to this later).

Building a point and shoot 6×17 camera: the TwoFourths DIY camera kit
In 2016 I decided to back the TwoFourths DIY 617 Kickstarter project, paying about $185 for a kit that would let me use two lenses on the wood and plastic 6×17 format camera. I saw this as a point and shoot camera, requiring less effort than my 4×5 and 8×10, and much less expensive than […]

5 Frames… In the Sierra Nevada with ILFORD PAN F PLUS (EI 50 / 35mm format / Yashica FX-3)
This reliable little Yashica 35mm camera has been the envy of other backpackers — small, lightweight, and fully mechanical.

5 Frames… With 25 year-old ILFORD PAN F (EI 50 / 120 format / Zeiss Ikon Nettar 517/16) – by David Hume
I’m not sure if it’s a sign of having too many cameras or failing memory, but I recently slid open the ruby film window of my Nettar and saw there was a film in there that I had no

The Olympus XA review: how I fell in love with a tiny plastic box…
…and back in love with photography again and again.
Warning: the following review of the diminutive Olympus XA is highly biased and totally subjective. I love the darn thing and actually own 2 of them.

My Return to Film: Steven J Parkes
My return to film was not a definite decision I made one day, but more of an evolvement of my feeling towards photography.
