Thank you In 2018, we invited the global analogue film photography community to take part in our latest film users survey. The survey, which attracted 2100 participants when it was last conducted in 2014, grew to over 6,800 participants from 100 countries this time around.  This was largely due to the help received from the fantastic film community in sharing it far and wide on social media, blogs and forums, so thank you. While many of the results are in line with the growth seen since the re-emergenc...

We're all guilty of trying to squeeze every last frame we can out of a roll of film. For this week's #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites we asked you to share those #firstshot frames that were extras. (You know the one's we mean where only half the frame is properly exposed) As usual, you didn't disappoint. @ntruj The one that got away. #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites #firstshot   francisco.valga “hello..” #lionelrichie #porche #ilfordphoto #fridayfavorites #firstshot #minolta  #ilfordfp4�...

Sharing the skills and the passion My name is Hank Webber and, together with my wife Marie, we own and operate Webbers Photography Within my family, I’m a third generation photographer. It all started with my Grandfather in the 1920’s who then passed the skills and passion to my Dad and his brother, my Uncle Joe. They, in turn, blessed me with the same passion; skills are ever evolving. Each of them believed that as they triggered their camera shutters, they were capturing a moment in time that woul...

I had just stepped out of the subway station when my cell phone rang. It was my father. “I saw on the news that there are protesters gathering in Manhattan over the grand jury decision. Be careful getting home.”  “OK, Dad. Thanks for letting me know. I’ll be careful.” I put my phone back in my pocket, reached for my cameras and felt the weight of them on my neck as I slipped their straps over my head. I adjusted my camera bag on my hip, turned the collar up on my old green army jacket, and took ...

I don’t know about you, but I have a “box of shame”. It’s where I keep all the photographic odds and ends of kit that I never use, but can’t bring myself to throw away. Well I’ve always felt it would come in handy one day, and it seems that day has come! This story really gets going when I decided I wanted to do something fun with my Konica Pop*, an 80’s classic point and click camera I picked up in a charity shop a few years ago. Odds and Ends By utilising some of these long-neglected items...

On April 15th in London, and many other locations around the world, a series of protests and demonstrations took place as an act of rebellion against systems of pollution and excess, which are causing rapid changes in the climate of our planet. I was aware that this rebellion would be taking place having attended a march a few days previous. I was excited to continue shooting in this environment and did not yet realise the scope of their action to unfold, or how rewarding it would end up being photographica...

Turning your negatives into positives Reversal processing enables black and white transparencies to be produced directly from high quality films such as PAN F Plus, FP4 Plus and DELTA 100 PROFESSIONAL How it works It starts with the development of the negative image. This leaves the unused silver halide untouched, but it is not fixed, as it will be used later to form the positive image. After the negative image has been developed, it is totally bleached away using an acid bleach. This leaves the remainin...

We all enjoy shooting film and know that this makes us happy, (most of the time anyway)! For this week's #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites #happyfilm theme we asked you to share images of other things that make you happy @hejrevell Sava River view from Kalemegdan Park, Belgrade Serbia, ILFORD PanF Plus & Leica M7 | 50mm Summicron lens.#ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites #happyfilm #Ilford @ILFORDPhoto #LeicaArchitecture #35mm #AnalogPhotography #film #FilmPhotography #Leica #leicasociety #LeicaCamera &nb...

In the summer of 2017 my friends, novice climbers, asked me to climb Elbrus with them. This is the highest mountain peak in Russia and Europe. The idea sounded great, especially because I have loved mountains since my childhood. But my campaign plan immediately included a large-format camera, with which I have been travelling for many years (mostly, of course, by car with a camera in the trunk). For a while I wondered if I should take a big camera with me too. Would it be better to take a Hasselblad? But...
