Round Two of The Disposables started slowly. Everyone is time poor these days. No-one stops to smell the roses! In the end some days off work help me end my project. Off went the camera to Les Porter and a few days later I got the call. Les is a magician, he can make anything happen, photographically speaking that is. He has an Aladdin's cave of films and papers and trinkets..... but I digress.
The images in this round really surprised me. The colours are not spot on, there is no denying that, but for an 800ISO film in daylight I think it is really quite acceptable. The clarity of the images does surprise me. When used with some forethought you can actually jag a great image out of these plastic boxes with plastic lenses. In the past I would never have considered grabbing one off the shelf at the local supermarket chainstore and snapping madly, but now my opinion has had a epic positional change. No hesitation now if I found myself somewhere cameraless and wanting to record something. I'd be first in line for a disposable!
Of my images this round the outdoor and opens shade shots are most accurate colourwise. The inside flashed up shots are very blue and with all rangefinder cameras there was a fair smattering of FINGERS over the lens!
Enjoy the fruits of my labours seen below and consider picking a disposable up yourself. It will challenge you and if nothing more you will end up with some great shots...... of your fingertips!
