How’s everyone doing in this weird period of global pandemic? Perhaps I should rename my blog to filmbasedslacker for first, not being able to travel and second, not being diligent in updating my blog haha! Back in August, I managed to squeeze out a day or two to do some photowalk around town. For that, … [Read more…]

Why is my Rossmann 100 so reddish?

December 25, 2018 by filmbasedtraveler 6 Comments
Rossmann 100

Analogue films entail both surprise and shock. I should be immuned to this but I can’t help feeling upset for a while when my photos on Rossmann 100 came back horrible. I had previously shot 4 rolls of expired Rossmann 100 and the photos were beautiful. However, this particular last roll of the batch came … [Read more…]

Color Implosion 100

Whew, Adox Color Implosion 100, a rare film! I bought one roll while travelled in Hong Kong in December 2016. Can’t remember the exact price but I am sure it’s not cheap, probably more than SGD10. The staff at the shop told me Color Implosion 100 is a newly invented film and it’s from Australia. … [Read more…]

Kodak BW400CN

Kodak BW400CN is the first C-41 process black & white film I have tried. Unfortunately, Kodak has discontinued this film in year 2014. To the best of my knowledge, another alternative to have C-41 process BW film would be Ilford XP-2. The XP-2 is also available as a disposable camera. Anyway, the obvious benefit of … [Read more…]

Lomography Earl Grey 100

I got my expired batch of Lomography 120mm Earl Grey 100 black & white film from my cousin. The good thing about film photography is that relatives and friends start giving you their cameras (mostly spoiled) and expired films. Anyway, this batch has expired in year 2013. I don’t expect them to have much difference … [Read more…]

I bought my roll of Lomochrome Purple XR100-400 film from Bangkok. It’s an expensive 35mm film, costing roughly SGD20 for 36-exposure. As the name suggests, this film makes your images purple. It’s kind of cool actually. History How does this film came about? Lomography Purple is designed to imitate the discontinued Kodak Aerochrome film, which … [Read more…]
