Third Roll: @Lomography MC-A – Arista EDU 200. #lomographymca

Subtitle: This Time B&W.

I talked this camera up a lot in my first post.

And even more in my second post.

It is well deserved.

Barring some manner of unforeseen circumstance, I do not see this changing.

This post? The main focus will be trying my first roll of N&W film.

The film.

Arista EDU 200.

The location.

A local downtown. Durham or Bull City as it is often called.

The pics.

One pic was taken at Duke Gardens after I finished the last roll I posted about.

Not sure how I managed this. But I like it.

My theory is impatience. I tried to wind on before the camera finished the exposure. The manual warns of this. After this, I became more patient, and the issue did not recur.

On to Bull City.

These waves? User error, I am sure. Why? Not a 100% sure. But I made two missteps.

  1. I forgot this was a 24 exposure roll and kept winding, which caused tension that ripped the film.
    • This tearing of the film is what caused the double exposure below.
  2. When ready to develop the film I made a few attempts to pull the film lead out with a puller. After no success I noticed the film seemed to have bunched up in the canister and this was confirmed when I eventually opened the film canister in the dark bag.

Moving on.

Lomography MC-A - missed focus.
Ran across Guillerrmo mid model photo shoot. A shame that I missed focus in my haste by rushing the pic.

Thoughts.

Again. I have a mess of them.

But I will close this post here and follow up on them in future posts.

For this post, I will just add that this camera seems to squeeze a lot of frames out of a roll of film. This was a 24-roll of film. And even with me trying my best to make a mess of it at times, I managed to get 26 exposures.

What a great camera.

A proper analog therapy distraction from the world being on fire.

If this camera interests you, check back as I expect there will be many more posts to come.

Happy capturing.
