Roll in a day / A day in a roll - 12th July 2012, All Kodak Day

On July 12th flickr group Roll in a day / A day in a roll celebrated George Eastman's 158th anniversary by shooting a roll of Kodak film and/or using a Kodak camera.

The 12th was in the middle of our vacation in Croatia, and I shot a roll of expired Kodak Portra 160VC with a Rolleiflex Old Standard 621 in and around Pula, Fažana and the Brijuni Islands. The complete set can be seen here.

My favorites are:


(Rolleiflex Old Standard 621, Kodak Portra 160VC (expired), ISO 160/23°)

Roll in a day / A day in a roll - 22nd June 2012, All B&W day

The fourth round of Roll in a day / A day in a roll happened a little while ago, on June 22nd.

This time the group called for a black&white day. I decided beforehand to use the Flexaret VI for this round, but unfortunately, I had no b&w medium format film available. I used a roll of Fujichrome Velvia 50 and converted the color shots to black&white using pretty much the standard conversion in Lightroom.

This round was interesting in that it was not on a Saturday but on a Friday, so I needed to combine the shooting with my work. Interesting indeed.

My favorite shots are the following:


(Flexaret VI, Fujichrome Velvia 50, ISO 50/18°, b&w conversion)
