Nikomat in Santa Monica
Recently, I went on a Classic analog photography walk. It seemed the time for the “Land Rover” of cameras, the vintage Nikomat, yes, the Japanese name, produced between 1965 and 1978. This is a heavy body (FT-N, 67-73) with lots of metal, yet very reliable and durable. Totally mechanic with few malfunctions that could not be repaired. The handling is similar to the Minolta SRT series. Here, I have used fresh Kodak TMax100.










Double and Triple Exposure
I enjoy using the double- and multiple exposure feature on an old film camera, the Canon Rebel S. I tried to half the exposure per shot so the dark areas would fill out in the second exposure. I like the effects. It gives the Joshua trees some dynamic movement and some power over the landscape. Location is Lancaster, CA.
Neighborhood walk
These are a few shots from walking or hiking or biking in the neighborhood. A few before, the others during the shelter-in-place restrictions.
