A Bright Winter’s Day
I was out recently with my Nikon F5; the morning had started off rather dark and dull, and I had high speed film (Cinestill 800T) loaded. Then things got rather bright and sunny. I saw this scene and in order to get the shallow depth of field I wanted I had to use a shutter speed of 1/8000 of second!

An Alley in Hamilton
From a December 31st, 2018 outing with fellow Classic Camera Revival hosts Bill Smith and Alex Luyckx.
It was a dull day lightwise, but still a fun way to wrap up the year.

Gleaming Ghost Town
I was checking out some of the new subway stops in Toronto the other day. The phrase that comes to mind is “gleaming ghost town.”

Another Cinestill 800T image
Another image from my Cinestill 800T test roll, shot with my Hasselblad 500C/M and 50mm/4 Distagon wide angle lens. I am always struck by how Kensington Market combines colour and grit.
Cinestill 800T
Thanks to my friends at Downtown Camera in Toronto, I was able to get a test roll of Cinestill 800T film in medium format to try out. This is motion picture stock. This film has the remjet backing removed, making it safe to process in standard C-41 kits. It’ a high speed (ISO 800) film, but I shot it at EI 640. Despite the fact that it is Tungsten balanced (for incandescent lighting) I found my outdoor sunny day images on the test roll were very easy to colour correct in post.
