My first manual film camera
I bough a film camera online last week and I just received it this morning. It’s SMENA 8M, which was made in Soviet between 1975 and 1995. The best thing of this camera is it is cheap and it is easy for beginners. I was so excited that I finally got my first manual film camera.
I have always wanted to learn how to take photos since I was a child, but I never really started it. Now I got more time for myself, I thought why not just start to do it right now. At the beginning, I have learnt about shutter, aperture, iso and some basic knowledge of photo shooting, also I tried to take some photos by my sister’s DSLR-Like camera, which can adjust each function to make nice photos. However, it can not satisfied my curious about photo shooting, I am so obsessed with file camera. I found some people recommended SMENA 8M as the first film camera, which has fair price, easy to operate and good for construct the film foundation knowledge. I bought it without any hesitation.
After I got my new “toy”, I could not wait to play it. However, I got some difficulties. I failed to load the film in SMENA 8M, it took me at least 30 minutes. Finally I did it successfully and started my film photography. After about an hour, I finished my first film. I wanted to find a store to see the results, then I realized that it’s not easy to find a developer to develop a film in 2018. I was sad, but luckily google can answer almost everything. I found a store, which is not really far away from my home, is still developing films. Sometimes beginning is always the hardest. I get it. Hope I can get my photos next week.
