New Old Camera (Part 3)


Over the weekend I scanned in the negatives of the second and third films I shot using my Agfa Optima-Parat. As it's a half-frame camera, the negatives are half the size of a standard 35mm camera. This means that when the negatives are scanned you get two exposures in one go which can lead to some interesting juxtapositions:


Overall I'm really chuffed with the results, tonally the shots have a real warmth to them and I've been really impressed with how well the camera works in low light. There's a selection of shots on my Flickr site.
