if its sunny i might try again with a red filter, that should let enough light in at f8 handheld. or bring a mini tripod and use the bulb function

no, i wasn't familiar, but am now looking and i definitely see what you mean i think its fair to say the biggest influence on the style i am working in now is fan ho, with a bit of moriyama. some stoller for the more architectural stuff

it's interesting you say that because i do explicitly think of work like this in those terms, like i'm looking for "spotlights" for a particular "scene"

...but absolutely nothing beats this one. Absolutely blown away by how lucky I was with this shot. One of my favourite photos I've ever taken. I can't wait to do some prints of this. #Leica #FilmPhotography #BelieveInFilm
A grimy shot of a laneway, palm trees against bright semi-cloudy sky, very textured walls, graffiti and bitumen in the lane itself. Two men walk into the distance together, one with a jersey which reads "19".

that's a nice way to think about it 😊

🦇bat-ilda jay @wavesounds.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
well, thank you! it's just disappointing to have a high...technical miss rate i guess? like when you can see it was a decent composition/capture but its just not recoverable anyway yeah, i think i was more of a snapper a year ago. that said it is also fun to dip back into that style too

🦇bat-ilda jay @wavesounds.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
if i can be super real for a sec, it's a little frustrating! this roll went so well, with the highlights just blown enough to give this sort of glow...but it's been hard to replicate, had a couple since that were way off. might be time to dig out my old spot meter and learn to use it properly...

most are still very affordable, but a handful like the 7sii are pretty in demand these days. same for a few others like the konica auto s3 or the canonet ql17

anyway thanks for answering!

🦇bat-ilda jay @wavesounds.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
mine is similar, no matter what i put in or the film speed it seems to want to always shoot wide open. at least it's still very nice in manual :)

i love these guys, what a nice picture!

🦇bat-ilda jay @wavesounds.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
hey question, what sort of battery are you using with the 7sii? or just shooting manual? i've never found one that seems to work quite right
100
🦇bat-ilda jay @wavesounds.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
i'm not really in favour of them using it at all but it's probably worth pointing out that a lot of people are reporting that they actually used "generation" is as in time period, not as in "gen ai" and claim not to intend to use it for creating assets etc.

🦇bat-ilda jay @wavesounds.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
