1800 mètres


If someone were to ask me which is my favorite camera, I would have to say the Zenit.
For some reason, I shot only one roll in the Alps with it. Just got the photos back today, and they are so clearly my favorites!
It's not always what I expected but they all have this grain, a fogginess, a kind of magic and most importantly something I can relate to.
Somehow, they seem also less classic then the ones I shot with the Pentax.
This camera and I work well together. Well, at least, this is what I think;)

PS: there is a little part of me, or more precisely of my home on l'inventaireuse's blog

Beautiful pictures. I have seen photos with the Zenit and it truly has its charm. What film did you use on this set? <3

I love film photography. I have never used a Zenit before, but I have always felt that film captures all the elements of real life the way a human eye sees it better than digital ever could. There is just no comparison.
