Horseman Convertible
So the Mamiya RB67 I obtained last year turned out to have a problem in the lens not closing at certain shutter speeds. Which is frustrating as I was thinking of getting some long exposure shots out of it. As I’m not certain of anyone fixing it in town, I have to wait for a…

More Film Photos
I occasionally shoot film, but I don’t have the time or space to process it myself. So whenever I have a at least three or more roles to process, I send them off to a lab (this time Sydney Super 8) to process them. The shots from the last three rolls are two trips to…

Japan 2023 (part 2)
In Hiroshima, we picked the highest rated okonomiyaki restaurants we could find. I got sick in Beppu, while my friend Sam found a tattoo-friendly onsen. Nagasaki offered some history and art. I recovered in Fukuoka, and spent the day at a sumo tournament. Kurashiki had history and then returned to Tokyo to round out the…

Japan 2023 (part 1)
A nearly two years ago, me and a friend went to Japan in an unseasonably hot November and spent the month there. I took about five hundred gigs of photos during the trip. And then I did nothing with them. I recently decided to trawl through the shots and find if there were any good…

There is a minor issue with the new 30mm GF lens and the infrared filter I bought for it. Some weird halo forms in the centre of the shot…but…

June
It’s cold, which I enjoy, but my hands don’t. The work project is accelerating towards its final date. This month saw me walking around with the GFX all month, since I bought a new lens, a GF30mm f3.5. I rarely buy secondhand, but it’s worked out okay so far. I’ve looking forward to working on…

May
Trying to get through an extremely busy month, it’s getting colder and walking in the rain reminded me of my time in Reykjavik and Copenhagen. There are some photos I forgot to post back for the February update, so they’ve been added here. May was a busy month and mostly spent using my GFX camera.…

April
A month of solid warm days before winter begins to set in until late September. The days seem shorter, but I’m still sleepwalking through my job and trying to fill the gaps for I travel next. Fortunately, that’s in a couple of weeks.

Fujifilm x M-mount
Recently I purchased a M-mount adapter for my X-T4, since I was bored and really didn’t have a lot to splash out on a new lens (for now). I had a spare Voigtländer lens, a Color-Skopar 35mm f/2, from my purchase of the Bessa R4M last year. With the adapter and the crop factor of…
