Recently, I have been on the hunt to get a prime lens, especially to use once our baby is here. Based on my findings,… Continue reading 3 Fuji XF Lenses You Should Try

Fujicolor 100 – the Fuji Blues

Back to 9/11 – Ground Zero on Fuji Superia 800
I remember wondering were the planes out of control? What the heck is happening? Then the news anchor, describing what we were watching, said (I am paraphrasing from memory) "As you can see, there's people trapped in the buildings and they're throwing paper and furniture out the window..."

Developing Adventures – My First Time Shooting Fujifilm Neopan Acros 100 II Film
The original Acros film was discontinued in 2018 and it seemed to be mourned by film shooters around the world, which actually didn't go ignored by Fuji for long. I bought 4 rolls of Fuji's new release of its Professional Neopan Acros 100 II film back when it first came out in Spring 2020. I… Continue reading Developing Adventures – My First Time Shooting Fujifilm Neopan Acros 100 II Film
My First Try with Fujicolor 100
Fujicolor 100 film, otherwise known as Fujicolor Industrial, is a color film with an ISO of 100. It is used for outdoors mostly and portraits because it is said to be good for skin tones compared to Fuji Superia Xtra for example, which can be very saturated.
