i found a perfectly functional nikon n60 for 35 bucks at a thrift store, and i impulsively spent an extra forty five bucks getting film and then getting the film developed later on. holy fuck i like this lifestyle. i think everyone should take shitty pictures with film cameras because it’s very much worth the fortune you spend.

If you’re a thriftier person than I am, you can find some gems for much cheaper at a thrift store (the only risk is that they don’t work!). I wanted a replacement for disposable cameras, and found this Canon Sure Shot Owl 35mm camera on Depop. It’s super fun and easy to use!

i'm just a hobbyist who happened to be given two film cameras for free so I started shooting to mess around. some of my fav photos i've taken were made using "incorrect" methods and just accidentally having settings/film stocks that made the results look interesting. film is a cool medium and some of the most fun I have shooting is trying to do things less conventionally for the hell of it. shoot on expired film, do double exposures, leave the shutter open way too long, go shoot random stuff and you'll get some pretty results.

i first bought a film camera at an antique shop last summer and i immediately fell in love with it. despite the cost of film and development, i love it so much more than most cameras. i grew up accidentally collecting cameras from thrift stores and my mom’s friends, including one of the very first popular models of polaroid camera!
when i bought the film, the man who owned the store gave me some free 18-exposure (i think ?) film. when i got the film developed, i realized that there was this blue hue to the photos. i am not sure why and didnt think to google it but for whatever reason, the next set of developed photos had that same hue, but ONLY FOR THE FIRST 8 EXPOSURES
i was so confused but i dont care honestly it looked good while it lasted
