When, and I mean when which is a rare thing, I load one of my film cameras up with colour film the only choice for me is KODAK GOLD 200.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recently I tested both my Canon A1 and AE-1 cameras and used up a couple of rolls of 35mm Kodak GOLD 200.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This film stock really does have that 80’s 90’s colour film picture vibe going on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nothing clever was done on the cameras and both where shot using the Auto Aperture setting on the lens, locking the “A” down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This batch are the shots I took at some favourite places I like to shot film photos at on my way home from work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is what results in the camera operator (me) opening the back briefly before winding the film back into the safe dark place of the film cassette. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I know armature mistake but that’s why I am an armature lol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thankfully other than a couple of “ruined” shots a few had light issue that to me added to the pictures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What do you think?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes I am a 99.999% black and white film shooter but occasionally, especially on sunny days, colour film has its place and when that time comes it is Kodak GOLD 200 film all the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It would be interesting to know what your thoughts are on colour film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please do comment below as each post is read and many replied to by me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wishing you well and safe journeys.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
