I only managed two successful shots from my first 24 exposure roll, but I guess 1/12 is really not that bad. I don't feel like I am yet at the point where I can pre-visualize for this camera but I have a better idea after having this roll processed. The 22mm lens is wider than I thought! Ahh thinking in the rule of thirds again is refreshing, I have been thinking square for quite a while.
This is my favorite of the two images and is more along the lines of the sort of thing I would like to shoot with the slim. I have this odd desire to shoot farmland and giant hay rolls and cows with the thing. Well I'll be back in Statesboro next month so maybe I'll indulge myself.
Technically the camera preforms well. I was expecting more vignetting but this subtle vignette is nice and non-distracting. The colors are fairly accurate (although I suppose that's the film more than the camera). There is a decent amount of sharpness in the main plane and it softens nicely towards the edges.
My only complaint, rewinding the film takes forever! But it's worth it. :)

Nice shots - I have a Vivitar ultra wide and slim as well as a White Slim Angel. love them both - try shooting into the sun a bit for some flare, thats my favourite part!
ReplyDeleteThank you. :) It is certainly a fun little camera. I did try one shot like that and got some nice flare, but the composition wasn't really working and so I decided it didn't really deserve to be posted. Thanks for the tip! I enjoy following your blog by the way. :)
