Fomapan 400 with Holga – plastic medium format camera – part iv
I was sure that this “iv” post from the series about great cooperation between Holga camera and Fomapan 400 film will be my final essay, but I was wrong. I just bought 13 more rolls of this film. for the fenomenal low price. $1.3. exactly, I thought the same and bought a few. the only thing that I know about this film that it’s expired in 2016 and UNKNOWN storage condition – hence the price. so I just took one a roll and exposed it during two days of my previous weekend. you can see the result below.
This time I messed with some experiment. as you can see – I got a few frames looks like 6×4.5 and the last one is two frames connected together. I will explain – have you noticed the fact that the frame of negatives exposed with Holga are always a little bit less then 6×6, with very big distance between the frames. so I tried to count the clicks of the film winding mechanism and to make less clicks but lost the count.
but my idea was right and I can get +1 additional frame every time 🙂 for the only 12 frames long film roll one additional frame means a lot !
Enjoy the square frames and check my previous posts from this series…
thank you for the visit !!!
Love the one of the tree!
Yes i love it by myself and would like to print it in size like 60cm ! Thank you Lina !
whatever, however, you achieved it…every frame is a joy to the beholder (me!)
Thank you very much to you Paula – my unaltered beholder !!
Great set again, Victor! And congratulations on the special price 🙂
Yes it was nice to take some more rolls just for experiments ;-( thank you very much Jurgen 😉
Long live experiments!
Indeed Yuri !
I admire your adventurous spirit for buying and experimenting with expired film, Victor — and I admire your results as well! I hope you are rightfully pleased with the results …
Thank you Heide for the kind words. I dont know if absolutely pleasured by results but i loved the way. During shooting and developing of every single roll i find and learn something new and it make me happy even more.
Happiness is the goal of all artistic endeavors, isn’t it? So on that score I think we can call your experiment a success! 🙂
Agree with you !!!
Hey Victor, wow, always an inspiring to see your Holga work! A very creative set!!
