Oscar
Attracted by the image quality, the tactile joy of a finely made camera, and the value of vintage equipment, photographers around the world are rediscovering the joys of film photography. This comprehensive guide to shooting film photography covers all the bases, from setting up a camera through film processing. In a convenient format, filled with diagrams, examples, and illustrations, Analog Photography is a portable reference tool for neophytes and experienced photographers alike. With an irresistible package inspired by the aesthetics of vintage user manuals
This is a book about the beauty of analog photography, and a celebration of all these breathtaking, magical cameras that have been consigned to the trash for too long. This book will connect these devices with a new generation of photographers, helping them not only to fall in love with them, but also—and most importantly—start using them again, with passion.
