Kodak Vision3 500T Portraits & Filter Tests (85 & SepiaB) with Leica M3
Fashion portraits using 35mm Kodak Vision3 500T film and converting to daylight using 85 correction filters.
I'm new to lighting, what's the first thing I should know?
That's a question I often get asked from photographers that want to learn lighting and improve their craft. I've been shooting and studying photography/lighting/cinematography for 15 years now. I'll always be a student of this craft but have certainly acquired knowledge and experience over that time period. And more importantly, made many mistakes. Here's what I wish I knew about lighting/photography when I first started:
Comparing Diffusion Filters - Hoya Black Mist vs White Mist
Diffusion filters, I absolutely love them and use all different kinds. I'll be going over the White Mist & Black Mist from Hoya. These live on my film cameras but you could also use them in your digital SLR cameras, mirrorless or any cameras where you want some diffusion to add a little bit of a character to your images.
Shooting Black & White film Portraits with extra grain (Kodak Tmax3200 Pushed 1 stop + Leica M3)
One of the reasons I love shooting 35mm film is to take advantage of the tiny negative. 24mm x 36mm is tiny compared to
6cm x 6cm and specially next to 8x10. Below we can see a side by side comparison of sizes of the negatives (left - 8x10 negative, right - strip of 135 film):
