Bird Photos Shot on Vintage Soviet and German Film Cameras
Original: Birds 🖤 Shot on: • Lomo Smena-8M (USSR, 1987) • Watameter Super Rangefinder (Germany, 1954) • Kodak Eastman Double-X 522
A photographer has shared a series of black-and-white bird images taken along the Baltic Sea coast using vintage film equipment: a Lomo Smena-8M from the Soviet Union made in 1987, a German Watameter Super Rangefinder from 1954, and Kodak Eastman Double-X 5222 black-and-white cinema film, pushed to ISO 400. The shots are drawing attention from analog photography fans who appreciate the pairing of old rangefinder cameras with movie stock for wildlife work.
Why now: Analog photography enthusiasts are admiring the rare combination of decades-old cameras and cinema film used for bird photography
