Prague never lets you go…
Nikon FM2n w/ Lomo Cine 400 Tungsten
…this dear little Mother has sharp claws,“ a famous quote from Franz Kafka, a native of Prague, about his hometown. Took these shots on my second holiday in Prague, I’ve been there many times for work, but I actually went back for a longer stay, just because there is much about Prague that beckons at me. This time I was prepared with my film camera to document some of my favorite spots there.
I chose the Lomo Cine 400 Tungsten film for this task.
I love this film for its ability to produce amazing shots under low light conditions and still retain sharpness and detail. The subdued tones definitely make your images look like cinematic stills from an indie movie, what more with the film’s silky smooth fine grain. Amazing contrast, cool tones, surprising shadow detail, this film is everything you need to capture the mood and atmosphere of a scene before your eyes.
NOTE!!! A very important tip to remember when shooting with Tungsten film is to always shoot in yellow light and never in blue!!!
On another note CineStill is attempting to get their 800ISO film produced in medium format and it is being crowd funded here. I urge you all, we really need to make this happen so make sure to check out their page.
