    A small update on the Big Mini

    I got a new backside! If you follow me on Instagram or read this blog you may know that I got a Konica Big Mini for cheap off eBay. The seller said it was broken and sold it for 25 Euro, but when it arrived I figured out that only the backside LCD was broken […]

    Kodak Gold 200 pushed to ISO 800

    Recently I saw that Safelight Berlin is pushing film free of charge. Pushing film means you shoot the film at a higher ISO rating that it is marketed for. Each doubling of the ISO is called a stop, so shooting Kodak Gold 200 at ISO 800 means I pushed the film by 2 stops. The […]
