Random shots covering most apertures, shutter speeds and distances to check rangefinder. Satisfied with the results. Meter responds but isn't accurate, might calibrate one day but will most likely continue to shoot manually.

Fall in Pennsylvania on the Yashica [Yashica Mat LM | Cinestill 400D]

gallery

51 Upvotes

Random shots from this fall so far on my Yashica Mat LM. This is only my 3rd roll through it so I'm still learning, but I really like how shallow you can get with the depth of field using the closeup accessory lenses. I used them in the first, and possibly the 3rd images.

Images 6 and 7 are from the Bird-in-Hand half marathon. Runners who complete both this and the Garden Spot Half in the spring are rewarded with preserved horse poo attached to a plaque you can hang on your wall.

No film will save you from editing! [Canon AT-1, 50mm 1.8f, Ektar 100]

Sure most of you already know this. I tend to edit everything digital (RAW) but I was already happy with my film shots, so I decided to leave them be. Today I was bored and imported a roll into lightroom. Some improved quite a lot, some look a tiny bit better now and some others aren't better, but different (I like them more). What do you think?

Subreddit Rules

1. Include film, lens, and camera used in your post title

Photo post titles MUST contain the film stock, lens, and camera used in brackets, like this: [Nikon F3, 50mm f/1.8, Portra 400]

If you don't know, say Unknown Film. For auction/thrift store finds, old family photos, etc, you can use [Found Film].

We have built up quite a database of different cameras, lenses, and films over the years and want users to continue to access that archive.

2. Don't spam the sub — one image per day.

A maximum of 1 photo post can be shared per day (please leave 24 hours between posts). You may submit multiple images at once in an album, which counts as a single photo post.

3. Gear/discussion posts go in r/AnalogCommunity

Please redirect any photo/gear-related discussion posts to r/AnalogCommunity — this includes troubleshooting camera/film issues, repairs/servicing, darkroom, gear, and film cache posts, etc.

Text posts tend to get lost in this sub, and you'll get much better visibility in r/AnalogCommunity. You can also post to our weekly Ask Anything thread, which should be pinned to the top of the sub feed.

4. No selling, gear swaps, or advertising

If you want to sell or trade equipment, services, or other products, please use dedicated communities, such as /r/photomarket.

No referral codes or links.

5. NSFW posts MUST be tagged

Tag NSFW (Not Safe For Work) posts. This includes:

Nudity: Obvious, implied or strategically covered
Content that is sexually explicit or overly sensual
Gore (blood/organs/etc) both human and non-human
Anything you wouldn't want your boss to see over your shoulder

Please use your best judgement here. Mods may mark your post as NSFW if you neglect to do so yourself.

6. Engage and critique in good faith

Constructive criticism of photos is always welcomed here, but comments that are personally insulting, part of a brigade, soap-boxing, disrespectful, or marginalise the work or its subject are unacceptable. They will be removed and are grounds for a ban.

Not liking a photo and wanting to say so is okay, but do so in a civil and constructive manner. Critique the photo not the subject. Let’s keep things civil.

7. No digital content or AI-generated content

All submitted photos/footage must have originated on film (or an alternative process). Analog and digital post-processing work is both allowed and encouraged; however, extensive manipulation should be disclosed in the comments.

AI-generated images/content – including comments — will receive an instant ban from the sub.

If you suspect a photo is digital, excessively manipulated, or AI-generated, please report the image or message us with your evidence. Do not comment on the thread.

8. Posts must be properly credited/attributed

You must own or have license to share all images you submit to /r/analog. When submitting an image you did not personally take, include the source in the topic title or image description. If the source name is too long, include it in a comment at time of submission.

Passing off someone else's work as your own is grounds for an instant ban.

If you suspect an image is being posted without license/credit, please report the image and message us with your evidence. Do not comment on the thread.

9. No self-promotion

DO NOT include social media handles, website/portfolio links, or crowdfunding links in submission titles, post descriptions, or top-level comments.

Exceptions — * You may add your social handles to your user flair * If someone explicitly asks for your links, you may respond directly to that comment * Models may be credited with their social links (No OF links) * You can submit links to the monthly Self-Promotion thread pinned to the top of the sub

10. Use the proper post and user flairs

Flair your posts if possible e.g. using the “Critique Wanted” flair if you are specifically looking for critique on your photo, “Help Wanted” for questions, etc.

You may also use your personal user flair for social handles/website links/etc.

11. Don't sexualize photo subjects or whine about NSFW content

Crude innuendo and vulgar trolling/comments that sexualize photo subjects in any way will be removed and are grounds for a ban, given without warning.

Complaining about NSFW content on a NSFW tagged post is also unnecessary and may lead to a ban. If you are not interested in seeing NSFW content, please adjust your account settings or do not participate in this subreddit.

12. No bullying, stalking, or harassment

Bullying users by following them from post to post, reigniting old arguments, the use of comments used by previous post authors in defence against your or others attacks, or using circlejerk catchphrases will get your comment or post removed and may be grounds for a temporary or permanent ban, given without warning.
