I flew into Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, late in the night to be unceremoniously whisked off to spend the next 15 days in quarantine in a 3×4 meter hotel room. I was there on a work assignment that was going to last a few months hence I brought along my trusty workhorse; Nikon F3HP […]
Tag: Nikon F3HP Film Camera
Less than the sum of its parts? The Nikon F3P, a press camera
Back in the day, the “stock” Nikon F3 was so popular amongst Japanese photojournalists that Nikon decided to make a “Press” or “Professional” version to the Japanese market.

5 Frames… With Lomography LomoChrome Purple XR 100-400 (EI 160 / 35mm format / Nikon F3HP)
I recently shot my second ever roll of the new 2019 LomoChrome Purple. After shooting my first roll at EI 400 and being a bit underwhelmed by most of the shots, I decided to go to the other end of the spectrum and shoot at EI 160 at a macro workshop. Borrowing a Micro-Nikkor 55mm […]
5 Frames… With Agfa Vista Plus 200 (EI 200 / 35mm format / Nikon F3HP)
