"Look at this people Eric" Street photography-like a boss

submitted by Raaagh

"Looks like other street photographers (also named Eric) are shooting up-close and personal with a flash. Except the difference is that he is shooting with a medium-format Mamiya 7II and a large Metz flash. No idea how much it costs to develop all that film, but he makes fantastic photos and the process of him shooting in China is interesting as well. Make sure to watch these videos thoroughly to get a sense of his style which is very intimate, casual, and flows very well."

could just shoot with a smaller digital camera and then Photoshop it to look the same , but then I guess it would not be as "artistic" that way.

not that I have anything against shooting with film , but its pretty inconveneant and if your end product can be achieved without using film might as well not use it if your going to inconvenance yourself why not go to the exstreem ? why stop at a film camara why not use a pinhole camera , why not stop and paint every person ?

I can see a justification for using film is that you like the random artefacts and inherent qualities , but again you can achieve those qualities using Photoshop only with the advantage of full artistic control.

Moving this video to Raaagh's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

At 10 exposures per roll, for 120 roll film, it would cost about $A3-4/shot in Australia (just buying the roll film is about $A15). I'd expect it to be a bit cheaper in HK or China, but still not really cheap.
