Fujifilm C200

Almost an year ago I decided to finally load a Fuji color film I had in the bag since too much time. It’s been shot in the beatiful Botanical Garden of Rome and in a natural reserve close to my neighborhood. Nice memories here… we were finally able to get out, wearing a mask, after a long winter in lockdown. I don’t know what to say more than this, except that I’m not happy at all about my supposed photographer skills. Just let me know if you find a nice picture in this batch, my self-esteem will thank you warmly.

Fujifilm C100

Refreshing to see something in color, isn’t it? Looking at the pictures, I suppose this film was loaded in the Canon Sureshot Supreme – that’s still my compact camera of choice, even if I’m somehow less impress by its autofocus performance. Color film are always a pain to scan because the white balance tends to vary even in two frames shot at the same location and with the same light. In this regard, I’m always amazed by the consistence of white balance in the 12×18 prints I get together with the negatives: there must be some trick up the lab […]

Fujifilm Neopan 400

Ok, it seems I still have unpublished scans from an expired Fujifilm Neopan 400 I shot in June 2019 for a wedding and… as it always happens with films, there’s some unrelated picture because the roll was already in the camera when I did the shooting. I love when I find a random/family picture I forgot to have because it was at the beginning (or at the end) of a “serious” roll. First picture above and below is my lovely friend Francesco in his best shadowy pose, in my kitchen in Rome, and with a guitar.

Fujifilm Neopan 400

This could be my last Neopan 400, unless Fuji is planning an unlikely comeback in the future. Maybe I shot it with a bit of melancholy, I don’t know, but it seems like these pictures are more sad than usual for some reason. Half roll was used during a wedding in June and the other half is here, split (in half again) between the bicycle lane and the marina in Siracusa city. There’s even some picture I really appreciate, like the nun in white hiding her face with a big hat, or “fuck the police” written on the bicycle lane […]

Fujifilm Fujichrome 64T Type II Professional

Here we go again with expired slides, this time with no terrible defects except a strong magenta cast that had to be corrected after scanning. I mean, nobody is forcing me to correct anything, it’s just that I find my pictures more pleasing this way. Nonetheless, colors are completely fucked up. As always, there’s some reason why I like so much this analogically unpredictable color shifting. But it’s true that every “glitch” is boring when you over-use it so… I’m almost happy not to have other expired slides to shoot in the near future. Maybe I’ll try some fresh slide […]

Fujifilm Neopan 400

Neopan 400 will be missed (and it’s already missing) a lot but I will eventually find a way to replace it in my heart. This roll that you see here has been developed in Rodinal “stand” (the lowest concentration of just 1ml every 99ml of water) for 1 hour to compensate for the (in)famous Rodinal super-grainy special effect and it’s in fact not that grainy. Shot in Rome (Aniene, Villa Ada, CSA La Torre and Villa Leopardi) with a Canon one-button 35mm fixed-lens compact.
