Autumnal St Nicholas Church

Photography Photo Essays & Places Read about my photography experience

By Simon Hawketts ·

I went over to St Nicholas church in Stevenage today to take some pictures with one of my Miranda 35mm film cameras, the Miranda Fv, and I also took along my Sony Nex to take some control pictures. Because the film I used in the Miranda was black & white, I've converted a number of these pictures to black & white as well to get a better comparison of the pictures which I develop from the film.

All these pictures were taken with either a takumar 28mm f/3.5 or a takumar 50mm f/1.8 and had a camdiox focal reducer fitted to negate the Nex's 1.5 crop factor.
