We also just finished building a darkroom in our house so I'm excited to get back into developing, I haven't done any in a few years.

I dabble in film photography just for fun. It’s been a while since I’ve tried anything artistic though, I’ve mostly been taking candid photos on film for my photo album haha

Big film fan. Don't do as much of it anymore, unfortunately. Wet printing in the darkroom is magic. Miss that more than anything else re: film.

I love film photography but could never fully dive into it. I am still pretty much a, take hella photos digitally and edit them on the bus ride back home kind of guy. 

But I need to expand my formats either way so I bought a Canon Elan IIe since it uses the EF system which I already have some lenses for. I'm still so new though and don't know how to use it on manual mode without instant feedback so I'm just using auto for now. Only issue I am having is using my speedlite for it since it's a Yongnuo without E-TTL ;( so I'm just gonna wing it with trial and error, maybe some of the results will be cool!

i've had an automatic film camera (pentax espio 738 - with zoom B-) ) and i bought a fed 5 camera  (based on leica a) and i'm enjoying adjusting all the settings very much :)  i can't wait to see the photos

I dabble in a bit of film shooting and developing. Been shooting with an old 60's USSR rangefinder lately and that's pretty fun.. And frustrating... Not the easiest camera to use.

Me! I'm a film shooter too. I have many, but I've been primarily using a Miranda Sensorex lately.

Any Polaroid fans here?

I take Polaroids for fun. I wish I could find film for it cheaper, but I have 100 or so plus photos I've taken. I really am interested in analog photo manipulations more so than just standard shots.

 Going back to film as digital is kinda boring now, I miss the process of film .hooting medium format mostly now,  

Awesome to see so many film photographers here! I just got into last summer, first started with super8 movies but now I have a nice collection of analog cameras. I mostly shoot for fun, to capture physical memories and not worry about looking at the photo immediately! 

I went to collage for photography and had a B&W film class I loved it, I have so many pics I want to turn into prints, just have to wait for this pandemic to get better in my state before I can join my local darkroom 

Started with film (mostly Polaroid/instant), then shifted to digital for most of my teenage years, and came back to shooting almost exclusively on film for the past few years.

Also happen to work at a photo lab/camera shop as my day job which helps with getting stuff processed!

Current favourite gear is my Fuji GW690, but still have a couple Polaroids and 35mm cameras I work with.

i love shooting with 35mm !! but i am absolutely in love with instant film 

Hi im studying Film but I don't even know how I have to use a camera correctly sometimes I feel so lost. Any recommendations?

I love films, I had cameras in my house I used to go around with whenever I am going for a vacation or holiday haha

It's been a while since I've shot film, but lately I've wanted to shoot through some rolls I have lying around. I've also always wanted to try working with medium format cameras. 

I just started a few months ago with my Nikon N80 and I love it.

I love Cinema photography.. 

i do visual effect art on my youtube videos

i love this thread so much, i just got my second roll of film developed last week and I am in love. i feel like the photos i take on film always come out sooo much better than digital, i always find myself wayy happier with them. I use an old praktika ltl i got on facebook marketplace for really cheap, can't express how much i love shooting film ! 

right here! got into it over the summer and it's been a fantastic outlet for me

hi!!! i just recently got an old kodak brownie bullet camera and some film from 1974!! i havent used it much yet but im super excited to see how the film develops woth it being so old.. would like to know if anyone has any tips for using this thing!!

spaghetti

Definitely, I'm also very fascinated to film photography for a long time. You can say it my passion. I've a technique to boost my photography to next level, it's nothing else just photo retouching. By photo retouching you can remove your photos any kinds of shooting fault as well as face blemish or strain.
  

    

me !!! i love shooting on film ive got 2 manual cams n 2 point n shoots and i take at least one EVRYWHERE at all times 

i just recently started film photography with my grandmas camera ( a minolta riva af ex35(i take her with me everywhere)) and i bought a belomo vilia just a month ago !!

i have some scans of my first roll on my profile ^__^ they aren‘t perfect but i‘m still a little bit proud of them

(maybe someone has a few tips for me)

I adore film!! I get my film developed at a local lab
I mainly use my Minolta SRT-201, but have 2 other little Minolta point and shoots and a Mamiya RB67 I've been a bit too nervous to touch 

I got into film during the pandemic shutdown. Like others said it's a nice hobby but expensive. Learning how to do double exposures was pretty fun.

I think my favourite is the Nikon FM2, very user friendly and fun to just point and shoot with. I'm a media tech at a uni and we still teach film photography :D

Yes! Going to MTSU! Check out my projects here: https://ifdproductions.ga

For the past year or two I've had a growing interest in photography, more specifically the old school/physical stuff. I have a digital camera and a semi-busted camcorder that I adore, but more-so film is what I really like. Its kind of an expensive hobby nowadays bc between the camera itself, like a disposable fuji cam, and getting it developed, its already around $30! Even-so something about having physical memories that you forgot about until you have them in-person is so magical, nothing like taking pictures off your phone(even if phones do have amazing quality...).

am amazed by the camera of Lumia 950/950XL windows phone, Carl Zeiss optic, 20mpx sensor, fantastic photos, as dslr camera.. Have made Example here , no edit, no mobile photo software, no nothing, photo as is..

Helloo all, I absolutely love the film experience, here's my insta where I post my pictures if you wanna check it out: @volemosamarte

i LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE film so much ( ؕؔʘ̥̥̥̥ ه ؔؕʘ̥̥̥̥ )? like i really can't explain my love for film

in words. you know the earliest memory i have with film is turning on every light in my room and looking at negatives for hours 

It's so fun and can unpredicatable sometimes, have some of my dads old equipment actually. 
I develop only b&w by myself at the moment, don't have to worry so much about temp differences. I using all Ilford chemicals but I got Rodinal if I run out that stuff keeps well.

Mostly shoot black and white because such.

Equipment:

• Dads old Canon T70 with a Vivatar Zoom lens and teleconverter. It's seals are still good for a 36 year old camera.
• Canon AE7 with 50mm (back up camera)
• Minolta A7 (Maxxum/Dynax 7) with 35-80mm lens, its my main camera.
  
• Epson V550 Scanner

I love filmmmm I've only taken 2 classes in school for it bit it's so much fun

I forgot exactly what camera but it was a Pentax and we developed it all ourselves!!!

film photography is my preferred way to take pictures (as you probably could have guess based on my pfp lol) but i picked up a polaroid now after finishing life is strange, i later got a polaroid 640 which is the one i use today!

I love film photography! Currently studying to become one. Just being behind the camera and filming is so much fun :D

I really love film photography, been interested in it ever since i was a little girl, I just dont have any cameras or fancy equipment to start my journey, i hope to find people on here who would love to be online friends and discuss photo ideas or film ideas :))) im lehua btw

Yeah, I am! I use an old Polaroid form 1994, though the film costs an arm and a leg, something i can't afford as i'm a poor 14 year old lol

hi!!! im currently growing my digicam collection and im looking so forward to majoring in film after high school :)))

I really enjoy shooting 35mm film. The results are still incredible and I really enjoy the whole physicality and workflow. It's definitely more satisfying than shooting digital to me.

Omg so meeee lmao I also did my first semester of Cinema and television in college, I love that digi.cam trend on tijtok cuz that encouraged me to take photos of my daily basis <3
