film is love

Hey,

I saw my sister, for the first time since my birthday, last week. We had a really good weekend at my parents house, and she and her boyfriend made me a really great gift for my birthday. A Fujifilm Instax mini 7s.

I really enjoyed the camera so far. It takes film packs for ten exposures of credit card sized photos.

The pictures are kind of tiny, but it is really fascinating to see a photo develop within about a minute. It wasn’t designed to compete with a SLR/DSLR, rather as a fun gadget. In the end its fun, real fun. 😉 I think I’ll present you some results, when I find a way to scan these.

Another great aspect is that you can create these cool photo-in-photo-photos, the instant was taken a day before I took the picture. @Adrian: It’s ISO 5000 f/25. 😉

It feels good to shoot film again.

Enjoy & take care,
