In this episode I chat with Pedro, the founder of Cinemot film. We talk about starting Maquinas de Outros Tempos (machines out of time) as a vintage gear shop in Porto, Portugal. An initial idea to help pay university bills has grown into a family-owned business providing analogue goods and services to Porto and beyond. We talk about some of the challenges with starting and running a small business and tease some potential offerings for the future.

In this episode, I chat with Jess Jones about pull-apart film, cyanotypes and printing our work. We talked about how we sometimes move on from our hobbies, the ups and downs of monetizing our creative output and about style. We talk about the film community whatever that means. We also covered photowalks, how travel and music may inspire our work and how creative gives us an outlet but also feeds back into us.

In this episode I had a great time talking with my friend Roxanna Angles about her perspectives on creativity and its impact on our lives. During COVID, Roxanne put together a book about mindfulness and photography based on her experiences in leading a film photography club at schools she has worked at as a counselor. She talks about her observations on how photography impacts young lives at an awkward time along with how it helps feed her own soul.

To kick off this series, I was honored to be joined by Tiffany Goolsby who I initially became familiar with through the vibrant images she submits to the Frugal Film Project every month.
We talked about how she became interested in photography, then her interest in film specifically. We talked about the benefits of using the same kit over a period of time, what she enjoys about photography, and a little about what engaging in photography adds to her life experience.
I hope you enjoy this initial installment and please do check out Tiffany's work.

Coming soon, a new podcast series called O Me! O Life! Inspired by the existential crisis of Walt Whitman in the wake of the Industrial Revolution in the late 19th century, we'll attempt to explore what verse we might add to the enduring play that is humanity.

In this episode, Mandy (@mandyleft) talks with photographer and filmmaker Marta Arjona (@marjonablasco).
They began by discussing Marta's short films Dolors and Peaceful Wind. They also talked about using expired films and some of Marta's favorites.
Marta was the recent recipient of a community grant from Ilford for her project ePhemeral. The nature of dance is that a dancer will never move exactly the same twice, so each performance is unique. Capturing it on film makes it eternal.
They finished up with the reoccurring segments FFS (For Film's Sake) and PACS (Pleasing Analogue Camera Sounds) and Marta gave a shoutout to Cuarto Color Lab (@cuartocolorlab).
In this episode of the @onlyfilmsproject podcast, Mandy (@mandyleft) chats with Bettina (@ysa.gb) as they work on prints at Aire Street Darkroom (@airestreetdarkroom). Bettina is a film photographer from Manchester who Mandy met on a @northwestfilmphoto walk.
They talk about Bettina’s early influences on film, camera preferences, using portraiture to change our personalities in approaching people, zines, and exhibitions. They also discussed their thoughts on fresh perspectives of familiar surroundings, femininity in photography, inspiration for subjects and subject matter and how Instagram has changed over the last few years.
Finally they share a Film Failure Story (FFS) that many will be able to relate to as well as touching on digital photography.
On this episode Mandy (@mandyleft) talks with Nico (@thatonenico) about teaching film photography.
The conversation begins with Nico talking about his experience working in a film lab and how answering questions from lab customers sparked his interest in education. They then talked about teaching young photographers. Nico shared insights on some of their reactions to film from point and shoots, pinhole, medium format, instant and with developing and printing.
Mandy asked Nico about his personal experience with photography, particularly in traveling with film. They talked about the future of film and some of the benefits as a medium since so much of it involves hands on experience and working with older mechanical equipment.
Finally they introduced a fun new segment.

Mandy (@mandyleft), Alex (@disorganised_film) and Kristian (@kristian.faulkner) are back with first impressions of their results shooting and developing Ferrania P33. They discussed how they thought it compared to other films on the market and how this new film might fit into their different photographic styles. They finished by talking through plans of how to shoot and develop another roll in the future. Along the way, they shared some news of what they've been up to and revisited one of the more unique (PACS) pleasing analogue camera sounds from a past episode.
Shout out to Aire Street Darkroom (@airestreetdarkroom) where Mandy and Kristian developed their rolls and made a few prints.

Hello and welcome back to Grainsplaining!
Today I sit down for a chat with my friend Holly @photoxcore_archive* Holly and I have both done some travelling with film recently. In this episode we discuss airport anxiety, the nightmare confusion of xray machines and our tips for travelling with film!
But don’t worry, it’s not all doom and gloom, we also talk about the joys of travelling with film: amazing labs, the film community we have met across the globe and why you shouldn’t be put off by the daunting task of airport security!
I’ve also recruited Holly to help with our #IWDFrameTheGrain Event. We talk more about the event, why you should get involved, and hopefully encourage you to take part.
Shout outs in the episode: @a_guskaart @kalimcmillan @imageplayground @darkroomkt @analoguephotoexhibition @sistahspace_ @rinkokawauchi
*NB I’m building a reputation for audio issues! Sorry guys but during this call I was interrupted by a rainstorm (recording in a tin shed doesn’t make the best audio). We also realised Holly’s headphones weren’t working after finishing our call! I’ve done my best to edit out the echo but there might be a few robotic sounds. Bare with me…

In this episode, Mandy (@mandyleft) catches up with Emma Lloyd (@emmajlloyd_).
They talked about Emma’s experiences with film in Australia since moving there last year. Going on a photowalk with members of the film community in Adelaide, independent labs in Melbourne in general and specifically FilmNeverDie (@filmneverdie), what cameras she took, how much film, what she is photographing and the idea of bonding with people in a new country over film.
Then with March being Women’s History Month and the 8th being International Women’s Day (IWD), they talk about #sheheartsfilm which Emma started while she was working at Analogue Wonderland and current projects they have both planned to recognize and celebrate the month.
Emma is organizing a print sale to benefit women’s charities. Photographers can share prints on social media that they would like to sell along with the hashtag #IWDFrameTheGrain. People who are interested in purchasing the print can coordinate with the seller and do so by making a donation to a charity that benefits women. Follow the hashtag and the Grainsplaining IG account (@grainsplaining) for updates on the project.
Mandy would like to put together a zine with portraits of female film photographers. She’d like to make the portraits this year and put together the zine in time for International Women’s Day (8th of March) in 2025. Please get in touch if you would be willing to be one of her subjects.
Hey gang! We are back! In this mini episode Emma is here to update you on life down under, film photography in Australia and an exciting project for International Women’s Day! To celebrate Women’s month, we will be organising a charity print sale under the hashtag #IWDFrameTheGrain. Listen in to find out how you can get involved, or head to our instagram feed for more details.
Emma also introduces our next mini series ‘from the archives’ featuring episodes recorded B.A (Before Australia).
P.S. This was recorded whilst lying in a hammock, on a beach, on an island in Australia… so there may be some bug noises in the background. Enjoy!

In this episode, Mandy (@mandyleft) chats with Katie (@darkroomkt). They talked about how Katie first got started with printing and then about how she built her darkroom during lockdown.
They talked about printing in colour and with different formats before discussing Katie’s work with photograms and how her process has evolved over the last couple of years.
They then discussed “Silver & Light: An Analogue Photographic Exhibition” (@analoguephotoexhibition) that Katie has organized since visiting the Canwood Gallery (canwooodgallery.com) last year during the Herefordshire Art Week. The exhibition will feature 29 analogue photographers including Mandy. There will be a private viewing on the 30th of March where many of the artists will be present and you can chat with them about their work (please RSVP through the account). Then the event itself will launch on Thursday the 4th of April and run throughout the month until the 28th on Thursdays - Sundays from 11:00 am - 4:00 pm.
In this episode, Mandy (@mandyleft) chats with Kris Faulkner (@kristian.faulkner) about the zone system. They talk a little bit about the history and how the system works to help improve your black and white exposures. They talk about Fred Archer, Ansel Adams and John Blakemore as photographers known for using the system.
Kris talks about Pinsta cameras and also how 3D printing by companies like Chroma Cameras can help photographers get into large format. Kris also mentioned wanting to visit the Peak District soon, particularly the Monsal Trail for some photography.
Finally they talked about compact cameras. Although the market is smaller for compact cameras than it was a few years ago, there are rebadged cameras available at places like Boots and it is a great option for people just getting into film photography.
Back in November 2023, Mandy (@mandyleft) and Alex (@disorganised_film) chatted about Alex's upcoming trip to Japan.

John-Michael and Ade explore types of light and lighting. It can get a bit jargony sometimes - knowing you’re broad from short and Rembrandt from chiaroscuro - so we’re breaking it down and aiming for plain English. Let us know if we achieved that!

Welcome (back) to The Lighting Lounge! John-Michael Mendizza and Sunbeam Ade are readying the ropes, pulleys and sleeping bags to dive deep into the rabbit hole of lighting in photography. We gonna love it and we’re pretty sure you will too 😀.
To kick us off, we are waxing philosophical on the “why” of lighting and we also share some images that inspired us and some of our own work. New for this series, we also have video on YouTube (link to come) and we share the images we discuss in our Discord so we can all talk about them there.

Hey film friends! We are back with another episode of Grainsplaining, and with our first ever guest, we have gone international baby!
In this episode, Emma talks to a long time film photography friend, Cherylee Legair, all the way in the beautiful Caribbean in Trinidad and Tobago. Emma and Cherylee met a few years ago on a #sheheartsfilm photo walk and have become FPFFL (Film Photography Friends For Life).
In this episode, Cherylee chats to us all about her journey with film and some creative avenues you can try to get you shooting again. We discuss the potential barriers people may be facing right now when it comes to their journey with film photography, and how we work through them.
Cherylee is a serious breath of fresh air, and one of the most positive and upbeat people we know. So get ready to feel her joy and get inspired! Join us for a chat about film, creativity and everything in between.
You can find Cherylee on instagram: @clegairphoto Twitter: @CheryleeLegair and for all the awesome people she mentioned, follow- Rachel @littlevintagephotography Rob @londoncameraproject Paula @paulasmithphoto Izzie: @izzie_farr Meredith @merrimayhem
Hello! We are back, two beautiful butterflies that have escaped the cocoon of January blues. We recorded this episode earlier last year, in the dark depths of a cold January season, and it is safe to say we weren’t feeling our best!
In this episode we talk all about the highs and lows of a new year, and how to come out the other side of resolutions, new years goals and the constant pressure to be productive. We cover all sorts from balancing hobbies with work, gatekeeping in the photo industry, and those dreaded Kodak price increases- and how we can beat them. Join us for a chat about getting out of those downward spirals with creativity and the thing we all love most- film photography!
Don’t forget to follow us on Instagram and Twitter @grainsplaining @alexandra_heron @emmajlloyd_ and if you would like to get in touch email us at grainsplaining@gmail.com

Happy New Year! We are back with a brand new (but old) episode, recorded at the end of last year and we cover A LOT, so buckle in!Recorded ahead of the launch of Alex’s fantastic campaign with NAS- the National Autistic Society, in this episode we chat about Alex’s latest photography project, “Now I Know”, where Alex photographed six incredible Autistic women and non-binary people, documenting their stories, in their words.It is a beautiful, moving campaign, and we can’t wait for you to learn all about it. In this episode Alex also tells us more about her story with autism, and how it has led her to where she is today.Of course it wouldn’t be Grainsplaining with some extra feminism chat, so we also cover smashing the patriarchy and similar issues. Alex has some top notch advice for those who want to break into the photography industry, so we hope this can be some fantastic motivation to kick off 2023 with!Don’t forget to follow us on Instagram and now Twitter @grainsplaining @alexandra_heron @emmajlloyd_ and if you would like to get in touch email us at grainsplaining@gmail.comNAS @nationalautisticsociety https://www.autism.org.uk/Now I Know Campaign https://www.autism.org.uk/what-we-do/campaign/our-new-campaign/now-i-know-campaignThe default male book- invisible Women: Data Bias In A World Designed For Men by Caroline Criado-Perez
As our little mini-series comes to an end, what have we learned along the way?
- We have some great feedback from our community, especially on the Sunny 16 Discord
- Fuji cameras can shoot IR natively with just a 720nm filter and so do some other brands as well
- Kolari Lens Hotspot Database
- Dave Powell: 5 Largely Unknown Digital-Infrared Gems (35mmc)
- Emulating film is not just about the grain and the colours - actually shooting parameters matter too!
- In this context: Video by Media Division about ultra-fast lenses (f0.7)
- Realism in photography is sometimes a problem and detracts from the image - especially when you get to the uncanny valley
- Smart TVs aren’t
- 60fps is actually dangerous (not really, just to Ade’s mental health)
- And much, much more!
- Including that there is room for everyone and every approach in this big wide world of photography 😀
Christian and Ade are on a journey to explore the spectrum of digital and film photography. It’s inclusive, light-hearted and hopefully fact-based 😀. Please join us!

Pick your metaphor: “wild goose chase”, “nailing jelly to the wall”, “red herring”. Our topic is “the film look”. How do we define it? What do other people think? Can we get close in digital? Are Fuji film simulations the answer to all these questions? Spoiler alert: nope!

- thanks to the lords of Sunny 16, we now have our own podcast feed!
- a lightning round to empty our prodigious mailbag - limit one sentence per email!
- Gabe’s about to leave for New York Fashion Week - here's the final list of cameras he's bringing:
- Leica Q
- Canon R5
- Leica M10
- Widelux F7
- Rolleiflex 2.8F
- Yashica T4
- Gabe's kit for a portrait shoot with Kal Penn: the R5, the Q and the M10
- to fund Gabe’s recent impulse buy of the Canon R5, he actually sold some stuff:
- a Contax T2 to Eoin Macken
- and a bunch of other gear (Hasselblad 503cx, Minolta Autocord, Leica R6.2) to our friends at LA Film Camera
- on the same trip, Jeff failed to unload a mint-in-box 90mm f2 Summicron ASPH with caps, case and original papers - any takers?
- Jeff’s about to make another trip to Atlanta and KEH — last time, he looked at a ton of cool stuff (thanks Sam) and came away with a 35mm Nikkor for his SP rangefinder
- this time he has his eye on a 35mm f2.8 PC-Nikkor tilt-shift lens to use with the XPan
- Jeff’s recent impulse buy: a Konica Acom-1 a.k.a. Autoreflex TC - what is “automatic” exposure, and why do we judge those who use it?
- the difference between shooting the Widelux (serendipitous) and the XPan (deliberate)
- no cameras allowed at the Malibu Chili Cookoff, and no cameras on tripods in LA's public parks! wtf?
- serial numbers - do you find them interesting? Jeff sure does!
- Jeff used the Paterson System 4 with its babyish plastic developing reels.. and he loved it!
- forty episodes in, what have we learned?

VERY SPECIAL EPISODE recapping Jeff’s absurd acquisition of a Hasselblad XPan, and more importantly, his trip to England and Wales to meet all four hosts of the Sunny 16 Podcast! * In our last episode, Chris Chu talked Jeff out of getting a Hasselblad XPan, so how did he end up impulsively buying one on his first day in London? * A magical trip to Camera City, the very same place where Jeff found his sacred Alpa 11si ten years ago.. and what should be on the shelf but an XPan? * And now, the circuit of the Sunnies… + Drinks with Ade at the Camera Museum in London + A side trip to the Photographer’s Gallery and their incredible film wall + Darkroom work with Rachel at her studio at Northern Lights in Liverpool + Touring Anglesey and Portmeirion, Wales with Clare + Browsing vintage cameras with Graeme at the Cameras London stall at Portobello Road * An underdiscussed aspect of the XPan: the standard 45mm f/4 lens is incredible! * In other news… where’s all the film? And why’s the film we have so expensive? * Gabe has set up an on-deck circle of underused cameras… * …and has been snapping up photography books * Thought experiment: if the boys had to cut their collections down to only ten cameras, which would they choose? * Next episode, we tackle the prodigious mailbag!
Listen to this first of two parts where Dave Walker talks us through his first experience with RA4 colour printing.

The mailbag features talk of travel cameras, copy stands, and the allure of the Nikonos system. But the jewel of this episode is an interview with France-born, Dublin-based street shooter Valentine de Villemeur. Tune in for insights into her favorite cameras, her shooting style, and her development as a photographer. * John-Michael Mendizza’s copy stand solution: a koolehaoda rail * Looking for an inexpensive way to shoot Nikon glass? Check out the oft-neglected Nikonos system — you can score a body and two lenses for under $150! * Valentine de Villemeur interview — her website and Instagram * Finally: what’s up with Portra 400?

- Happy birthday to our patient patron Graeme!
- Gabe’s COVID ordeal
- A magical mailbag!
- Gabe’s recent shooting adventures: a daylong shoot with actor Brenton Thwaites, and Retta’s pink party
- Jeff’s been a-travelin’, so let’s talk about the travel-camera conundrum. His favorite is the Olympus XA4 Macro — what's yours?
- Visits to two great camera shops: Unique Photo in Philadelphia and B&H in New York
- In a stunning development, Gabe got a half-frame camera, a Canon Sure Shot Multi Tele — how does half a cookie taste?
- copy stands are insanely expensive, so after much searching Jeff found a Durst F30 on Craigslist — it's the enlarger he learned on, and now the world’s cheapest copy stand
- We regret to inform you that Polaroid is at it again, with wildly overpriced Saint Laurent cameras and film — damn you!!
- Clare Marie Bailey gave Jeff a print of her exquisite photo “Memories of Summer” - print and hang your stuff, swap with other photographers, physical media is nice!
- Looking for an inexpensive way to shoot Nikon glass? Don’t sleep on the Nikonos!

The centerpiece of this episode is an extended interview with film photographer Sissi Lu, known to denizens of New York City as the Lady with the Hassy. She’s a street shooter and a portraitist and a TikTokker and a YouTuber, and her passion for photography is infectious. It’s one of our best conversations yet, so TOON IN! But first… * A manageable mailbag! * Marie Nikondo is RUTHLESS! Check out our Instagram for some cameras Gabe is offloading, and feel free to DM him and float a trade! * and then, our conversation with Sissi Lu, featuring + strategies for street photography + the allure of the Hasselblad (and how it’s different than shooting a 35mm SLR like her Nikon F3) + building a community of like-minded shooters + forging a connection with your subjects + the challenge of leaving the house with only two or three cameras + designing the ideal camera bag + using the self-timer (yes, she uses it) + favorite film stocks (spoiler: she loves Lomo 800) and her second favorite New York film lab (picturehouse + thesmalldarkroom in Chelsea)
Sissi Lu’s website, Instagram, TikTok, and her UNDER DVLP channel on YouTube

This episode’s a few days late, so Rolfe Tessem gave us a hard time: “Who do you think you are — Moonlighting?” YES! Here’s a show worth waiting for: * an extravagant mailbag, featuring talk of Canons and bulk-loading * 3D-printable leader-trimmers from Thingiverse: + One for normal film: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4557581/files + ABLON style, for Leica bottom-loaders: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1951048 * Gabe went to the Morrison Hotel Gallery show and met legendary rock photographers Bob Gruen and Henry Diltz * Jeff made a pilgrimage to the KEH brick-and-mortar store in Atlanta and came away with a Konica Auto S3 rangefinder and a 28mm Nikonos superwide lens which can only be used underwater * he also got a lovely Canonflex R2000 on eBay, report to follow… * however! the Canon Dial Rapid he bought from a guy in Portugal did not work, and the seller initially refused to pay for the return shipping. Remember, gang: eBay policy is, if a seller fails to provide means of returning the item, eBay can issue a refund without you returning the item first. * finally, our interview with brilliant Toronto-based photographer Jessica Devic

What the heck is a Pentax MF? A Perkeo? An AE-1? Okay, the last one’s no mystery, but HOP ON your podspeeder for a freewheeling episode featuring plenty of clapbacks from listeners, a bona fide in-person visit from a Sunny 16er, and the disposition of several long-nourished camera dreams. * A bumper crop of listener mail * Dream Team sweatshirts are now available * A recap of our visit with John-Michael Mendizza, including a trip to Cam Photo in Burbank… * …where Jeff bought a long-coveted Canon AE-1 * Our pilgrimage to Monte's Camera in Whittier, a veritable camera museum, where we learned about the mighty Voigtländer Perkeo * The Electro Spotmatic is beyond repair, so bring on the strange and wonderful half-frame Pentax MF * XPan fever has passed * Panatomic-X auction — 20 rolls for $405! We're 20 years into the film-camera renaissance — is the supply of everything tightening?

- The mailbag!
- It's a New Year — once again, check your batteries and exercise your cameras!
- As of October 2021, Paul BG is no longer making The Thingy, so how do we replace the discontinued mercury 625 battery? The 675 hearing-aid battery plus either a #9 rubber O-ring or a #10 split lock washer
- Time for more controversy: do you use the self-timer?
- Jeff's Electro Spotmatic meter has failed, and when a camera isn’t working, he cannot have it in the house
- Our thrift-store odyssey: Where are all the film cameras? They’ve been camer-raptured!
- Where to sell stuff, other than eBay? OfferUp, Mercari, Facebook Marketplace, ShopGoodwill, Etsy...
- Jeff’s hunt for an XPan / Fujifilm TX
- Are digicams the new film? (see this Casual Photophile article)
- Books: Pentti Sammallahti’s Here, Far Away
- Finally: Gabe’s annual report from the IDOC corporate retreat

After a dip into our bulging mailbag, an introspective episode: Why do we second-guess ourselves? What keeps us from getting out and experimenting? Why are we afraid to take chances? How do we avoid becoming discouraged? Perhaps by asking a friend to shoot with us? Maybe photograph some elderly relatives? Trust two comedy writers to plumb your psyche and heal all ills. Finally, we wrap up with gear updates, and — at long last — our FABULOUS CONTEST where you can win FABULOUS PRIZES!
On this episode of On Location, Ian Fleming talks about a few less well known cameras from his collection in an effort to shine a little light on some of the underdogs from the camera world.

Episode 18 • Fast and Furious 18 It’s a pulse-pounding thrill-ride (but really, the theme is family) as Jeff and Gabe attempt to cover 18 topics in 60 minutes. Among the items discussed: 1. our week in acquisitions and repairs 2. emails from the teeming masses, including a masterpiece by James Thorpe 3. who made that film? check out tinyurl.com/whatisthatfilm 4. research and acquisition - Jeff throws a camera at Gabe and he researches it on the spot 5. bulk-loading cassettes are a problem! 6. Robert Capa and Vivian Maier and mythmaking 7. our recommended cameras in the $300 range 8. patience and willingness to learn something new 9. doing your own printing (darkroom or inkjet) 10. focus points 11. homemade cameras, 3D printing… the failure of the Reflex, the success of Cameradactyl 12. what famous photographer used my camera? 13. what’s the sexiest shutter sound? what analog camera provided the shutter sound of the iPhone? 14. sprocket holes and fake rebates 15. the Leica/Hasselblad mystique - what other cameras have an “aura”? 16. pricey new films - Open That Film Night! 17. love to Mike Gutterman and Rachel + Constance Mallory Brewster-Wright 18. our upcoming camera giveaway! and our banner and stickers

Andrew Guthrie Milne was a Perth railwayman who in around 1902 took up stereo photography as a hobby. Active in competition, Andrew and his wife Harriet took his 3D camera around Scotland with the objective of creating great photographs.
One hundred years later Sunny16podcast listener Ian Wallace (@ian_onahillroad) undertook a project of over 10 years duration that turned out to be a photo history adventure. Eventually, it led to him to revisit every one of the locations Andrew placed his camera a hundred years before.
In this podcast Jim Duncan (Andrews' Great Nephew) and Ian (Andrews' Gt Gt Nephew) discuss Andrews photographic work, stereophotography in general and how the project led to the book "On a Hill Road".
Ian would like to especially thank Jim (who is a well known country music broadcaster on WCR FM) and his wife for their help creating this recording.
Some of the images discussed can be seen in 2D at the bottom of the page here https://www.onahillroad.com/on-a-hill-road-scotland-in-stereo-3d-circa-1902/
Learn about the Stereo Victo Camera https://www.onahillroad.com/the-stereo-victo-camera/
The book On a Hill Road (ISBN 978-1-9164389-0-3) is available in the UK on amazon and ebay, UK and overseas can buy on Etsy. There is a special Sunny16Presents price on the book saving 15% (Coupon SUNNY16PRESENTS) until the end of September 2021 available only in Ians Etsy store. https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/OnaHillRoad?coupon=SUNNY16PRESENTS
If you are interested in a talk with 3D Anaglyph images for you interest group (pandemic allowing) https://www.onahillroad.com/andrew-guthrie-milne-talks-with-3d/
You can make stereos with any camera with a little care but if you would like to try (and get the bug) using your phone the App mentioned in the podcast is "3DSteriod Pro" just look for it in your app store. There is a free version but its not expensive to go pro.

Episode 14 • How We Shoot
In this episode, the hosts turn the lens on themselves, examine their shooting styles, methods and subject matter.
Jeff asks Gabe about his portraiture work:
- How did you get started doing portraiture work? Seems to be your favorite mode of photography - is it?
- How did the word get out? - models now tag you when they're coming to town
- How do you prepare? - choosing cameras, film stocks, location, wardrobe, looks
- Model releases - do you get 'em? What are the terms of your agreement with them? Do you charge for them to use your stuff, pay them for the session, or is it a favor by you/them?
- Do you shoot mostly men, women or a mix? Do you have a preference?
- How do you direct and work with your subject?
- Does mom or dad or manager or publicist ever attend the shoot?
- How long is a session? What's the ideal length?
- How do you cull, how many images do you show them?
- If a shot is published, what do you get? What's the best placement you've ever gotten?
- You don't have to name names, but talk about your best session ever... and your worst
Gabe asks Jeff about his photos of "plants and buildings":
- What’s your favorite subject to shoot?
- How often do you think about shooting?
- Is there a camera you take with you more than others?
- How do you make the decision of what camera to bring?
- Will you approach people to shoot?
- What camera do you bring that’s always been a conversation starter?
- How do you decide what film stock to use?
- How often do you shoot and then go home right away and process?
- Where are your favorite places to go take pictures?
- What is your favorite travel camera?
- How many rolls of film will you bring to shoot?
- Do friends ever ask you to take pictures?
- Has anyone asked you to do a wedding?
- What are you thinking about when you’re shooting? Framing? Exposure? Bokeh?

You’ve heard of Marie Kondo — meet Marie Nikondo! In this wildly entertaining episode, Jeff forces Gabe to remorselessly thin out his camera collection by posing the following questions:
-
What purpose does the camera fulfill?
-
Do I have a set home for this camera?
-
Am I showing enough gratitude toward the camera?
-
Does the camera spark joy?

In this episode, we interview Fred Coury (composer of our theme song) and Keith Greenstein (designer of our logos, website and merch) about the vintage analog cameras we gave them a few months ago — a Rolleiflex 3.5 for Fred, and an Olympus OM-1 for Keith. It’s both enlightening and hilarious to hear these two bright, creative guys describe their very first excursions into the world of analog photography.

The outline:
• we had a whole episode planned, but then my girlfriend and I broke up, so now we’re gonna talk about disasters (and perhaps how they could have been avoided) • dropping your camera (or slamming it into a wall) • opening a camera, forgetting film is inside (but some say it’s no big deal!) • razoring film stuck in the Robot • dropping a lens... ugh, awful story • camera falling off the tripod • losing a camera, forgetting a camera • camera theft • trying to fix a camera thinking you know how to fix it • leaving the lens cap on • SLR vs. rangefinder • changing cameras midroll • end on an up note: excitement about our new shooters (Olympus OM-1, Rolleiflex SL350) Get in touch via email at idreamofcameras@gmail.com You can find Jeff: https://twitter.com/blue439 https://www.instagram.com/sjeffgreenstein/?hl=en

In this episode we talk to the photographer and film maker Brian Griffin, about his surreal short films, his music videos for bands such as Pan Sonic and Depeche Mode as well as hearing about his latest book ‘Black Country Dada’, his upcoming exhibition, and his yet to be made film….
Brian is recognised as one of the most influential British photographers and created many iconic album covers for bands such as Depeche Mode, Iggy Pop and Kate Bush.
He is also responsible for a body of work that shot business leaders and made them into surrealist art
Listen here to Brian talk about his films, his influences, and his many insights and stories alongside his script for his yet to be made film that hopefully will become a reality!

The Seven Deadly Sins Jeff and Gabe return to inspire all us sinners! • pride: showing off, bringing an exotic camera to a photo walk or camera show, etc. - the antidote: extending a hand to new photographers (as opposed to snarking “go Google it” in Facebook groups) • envy: camera envy - where does it get you? has it ever resulted in a good acquisition? • lust: what’s your Grail Camera? • sloth: letting cameras languish on the shelf - are pure shelf queens OK? • wrath: getting angry at your gear - have you ever hit a camera? • greed and gluttony: accumulating for the sake of same, and how to step away from it - the need for instant gratification - how to donate cameras (FPP school donation program), giving analog cameras to new parents, etc. • finally: what we need isn’t new film cameras, but guys and gals who can repair the ones we have - scholarship?

• buying from Japan, pros and cons — the cameras look perfect, but… (Jeff's recent Pen W, Widelux and M-1 experiences) • how to suss out a seller • eBay and sales tax • Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist - where to meet, how you know you’re not getting screwed, etc. • user vs. mint condition - how many dents and scuffs can you tolerate? • brassing, engraving, other sorts of wear (real and fake) • painted cameras? customized cameras? yay or nay? • what’s your perfect walkaround camera? what’s your travel kit? • “one camera, one lens, one film stock” - what would you choose? • Gabe brings three cameras to the grocery store • camera repair - local? send it off? who’s your most trusted and why? • originalism: is it uncool to use third-party lenses or accessories on your exotic vintage camera? • Spotlight: the camera you feel the strongest emotional connection to (Leica M4, Olympus 35RC)
This is not a podcast about photography, this is a podcast about Rachel and her life since the Summer of 2019.
Over the last 18 months, long time listeners to the Sunny 16 feed will have noticed that Rachel has not been present on the podcasts in the way she was before.
As our listeners are the best, and many people have asked after Rach and enquired about her wellbeing during this time, and more importantly because she's at a point where she feels able to talk about it, I virtually sat down with Rach to talk about her experiences over the last 18 months to explain her absences.
Please know going in that this conversation is about Rachel and her partner Adam's attempts to have a child through IVF, and part of that journey was loss, so if this is likely to be upsetting to you, you might not want to listen.
Thanks to everyone who's reached out to Rach and us over the last year with support and love, even though you didn't know what was up. The film photography community is one of the loveliest and most supportive collections of people out there. We always try to bring these values to our shows, and we hugely appreciate being a part of this awesome community
Jeff and Gabe are back with another brilliant episode of I dream of cameras!
Topics this week include:
• it’s a new year, check your batteries! How to replace the obsolete PX625: the MR-9 adapter, the Weincell, the 675 + paulbg ring, etc. • wrongly valued cameras (Minoltas, Konicas and Mirandas are treated like trash; Mamiya/Sekor is garbage while Mamiya is a treasure; Pentax K1000 overvalued while ME Super is undervalued; Canon AE-1 over, EF and A-1 under; Olympus OM-1 way under, etc.) • autofocus / point and shoot - is it real photography? • does handheld metering make you more of a photographer? • plastic / toy / Lomo cameras • Polaroid, Instax, One Instant (a disaster), Polaroid Chocolate • expired film - what’s so great? • bulk loading • Spotlight: the cameras we each irrationally and indefensibly love (Hasselblad 553ELX, Canon EF) • Thanks to Fred Coury for the music and Keith Greenstein for the logos

In this episode we talk to the photographer, author and specialist photographic printer
Mike Crawford about Carol Reeds 1949 film The Third Man.
We had some audio issues with this episode especially in the first third which we've done our best to edit out where we can. Despite this we think the conversation is still well worth sharing.

This is a show about me trying to justify my purchase of a 3rd 4x5 camera. In the process I spoke to the maker of the camera, Steve Lloyd from Chroma Cameras, a known purchaser of much gear and the co-host of the Large Format Photography Podcast Simon Forster, and the man who inspired me into 4x5 in the first place, the mighty Mat Marrash.
I don't know if I succeeded in my justifying efforts, but I did succeed in having some great conversations about starting out in large format, and some of the different pathways you can take to get you going.
