I'm not always one to go for a trashcam, but I can't resist the reborn cult classic, the RETO Ultra Wide & Slim! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JngJHTKEV0Q #retoproject #toycamera #camerareview #filmphotography #believeinfilm #shootfilmbenice
Never heard of R09 Spezial? Good, neither have I, but this modern release of Agfa Studional is certainly worth a look! http://www.alexluyckx.com/blog/2023/02/27/developer-review-blog-no-38-compard-r09-spezial/ #filmphotography #believeinfilm #shootfilmbenice #developerreview
Consumer grade doesn't mean that a camera sucks; while it may lack features of more advanced cameras, working with the Nikon F65 is like returning to my first experience with Nikon AF SLRs. http://www.alexluyckx.com/blog/index.php/2023/02/06/camera-review-blog-no-152-nikon-f65/ #camerareview #believeinfilm #shootfilmbenice #Nikon
Why not start this new project with a little introduction to myself and where I live! My theme for January's entry to the Frugal Film Project is my hometown, Milton, Ontario! http://www.alexluyckx.com/blog/index.php/2023/02/03/frugal-film-project-january-23-my-hometown/ #frugalfilmproject #believeinfilm #shootfilmbenice #filmphotography
Munn's United Church is another blink-and-miss-it congregation. One of the few surviving reminders of the lost village of Munn. This simple church has survived through the years. #believeinfilm #shootfilmbenice #canadianhistory #churchhistory #largeformat http://www.alexluyckx.com/blog/index.php/2023/02/01/houses-of-holy-munns-united-church-1823/

ECN-2 at home? Well not exactly, but this one is pretty darn close! The FPP Super Color Negative ECN-2 Kit is an excellent way to process Vision3 films at home! http://www.alexluyckx.com/blog/index.php/2023/01/23/developer-review-blog-no-37-fpp-ecn2-super-colour-negative-kit/ #filmphotographyproject #ecn2 #believeinfilm #shootfilmbenice
If a single parish spawned the rest of the Roman Catholic Parishes across the Halton region, St. Peter's Mission Church is that Parish. http://www.alexluyckx.com/blog/index.php/2023/01/18/houses-of-holy-st-peters-mission-church-1819/ #canadianhistory #church #romancatholic #largeformat #believeinfilm #shootfilmbenice
When Canon released its EOS system in 1987, it was a game changer! In today's video review, I look back at the original Canon EOS SLR, the EOS 650! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5JioM61J_g #youtube #camerareview #canoneos #believeinfilm #filmphotography #shootfilmbenice
While not my first choice for lenses, the Konica-Minolta 28-100mm late-era kit lens is a piece of glass with many flaws, but if it's all you have, it's okay. But be ready to update quickly. http://www.alexluyckx.com/blog/index.php/2023/01/16/optical-review-blog-no-37-konica-minolta-zoom-af-28-100mm-13-5-5-6-d/ #lensreview #review #konicaminolta #believeinfilm #shootfilmbenice
While often overlooked as cars rush along Dundas Street. The congregation of Palermo United Church is the oldest continuous congregation in Halton Region. http://www.alexluyckx.com/blog/index.php/2023/01/11/houses-of-holy-palermo-united-church-1812/ #largeformat #churches #architecture #believeinfilm #shootfilmbenice
The D stands for Dynamic! I haven't been excited about a colour film for a long time, but CineStill 400D certainly tickled my fancy! Plus, it's easy to grade and balance in a hybrid digital era. http://www.alexluyckx.com/blog/index.php/2023/01/09/film-review-blog-no-91-cinestill-400d/ #filmphotography #filmreview #believeinfilm #shootfilmbenice
While many stations and infrastructure I've featured have been preserved and protected, the former Richmond Street Station in London, ON, has enjoyed none. http://www.alexluyckx.com/blog/index.php/2022/12/21/a-faded-glory-london-canadian-pacific-railway-1893-1989/ #railway #canadianpacficrailway #cpr #canadianhistory #believeinfilm #shootfilmbenice
While the 1930s may not have been the best part of recent human history, you have to accept...the cameras had a touch of class. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POXXAouPepo #camerareview #zeissikon #superikonta #filmphotography #youtube #believeinfilm #shootfilmbenice

I'm not going to lie; I'm an ultra-wide junkie. And the 24mm f/2.8 is an excellent addition to my Maxxum Kit. http://www.alexluyckx.com/blog/index.php/2022/12/19/optical-review-blog-no-36-minolta-maxxum-af-24mm-12-8/ #lensreview #photography #filmphotography #sonyalpha #minoltamaxxum #review #beleiveinfilm #shootfilmbenice
