Twin Lens Adventures

These pictures were taken on an old TLR camera very similar to the Seagull 4B. It probably is an original one which was made in Shanghai, i just can't read the writing, cos its in Chinese! This is one of my favourite cameras at the moment, it had been sitting on my shelf looking quite restless for over a year before i thought to actually put some film in it to see if it still functioned. 

I used Ilford HP5 plus 400 ISO Black and White 120mm film. I borrowed a friends light meter and went on a twin lens adventure. I was really happy with the results, and to see the clarity of medium format film over 35mm.









The camera has a light leak but it gives my photos a lot more character. I can't wait to shoot some colour film during my travels to Indonesia in November. 

Comments and tips are welcome :)
