Analogue film
Analogue film remains a treasured medium for photographers who appreciate the distinct aesthetic and craftsmanship of traditional photography. Unlike digital photography, analogue film captures images with a grainy texture and a dynamic range of colors and contrast that many find enhances the artistic quality of their shots. Analogue photographers often enjoy the tactile experience of loading film into a camera, and the anticipation of developing their photos in a darkroom or through a professional lab develops adds a unique excitement to the process.
When selecting analogue film, it’s important to consider factors such as film speed, grain structure, and color tone. Film speed, indicated by an ISO number, determines the film’s sensitivity to light – a lower ISO (e.g., 100) is best for well-lit conditions and produces finer grain, while a higher ISO (e.g., 400) is ideal for low-light settings and creates more noticeable grain. Grain structure varies between brands and can significantly impact the texture of your images. Additionally, color films come in various tones, such as the warm hues of Kodak Gold 200 or the balanced tones of Fujicolor C200, while black and white films like Ilford HP5 Plus 400 provide classic and dramatic monochrome effects.
