Endurance


I swear sometimes working with 35mm film is this strange form of self punishment that I like to throw upon myself. I love film of course, but my preferred medium has always been 120. I love the bigger negative and the added depth. The materials are so much easier to handle. The cameras are so much more fun to use (TLR's and waist level finders!!). 35mm on the other hand is just so tiny and difficult to scan well.

The trouble is I am often finding large quantities of 35mm film at rock bottom prices and I can't help but buy it and use it because from an economic perspective it is just too damn difficult to pass up. 

Camera: Minolta Maxxum 7
