In this post I showed you a way to scan your film negatives. Now I show you how to do it more professionally with the Epson Perfection V600 Photo and Silverfast 9 from LSI. I have more detailed videos planned where I will go in to more advanced features of Silverfast. But, in the meantime, …
The Canon AE-1 Program is one of the most popular 35mm SLR’s ever produced and I still use mine nearly every day. First produced in 1981 as a successor to the AE-1, it introduced a Program AE feature. This meant that with the correct lens fitted, the camera could provide fully automatic aperture and shutter …
Why don’t you patronise my Patreon? Well I understand if you don’t want to. The thing is, this being a creator lark is hard work and can prove expensive. However I enjoy it and some of you guys seem to as well. For a long time I resisted the idea of trying to make money …
Today’s video is the third and final part of my Introduction to Lightroom series. In this one, I show you how to make some basic edits.

The 1981 Konica C35 EF3. One of a range of C35 point & shoot 35mm cameras that were made by Konica from 1968 until 1984. They started as rangefinders and later autofocus, but this is one of the zone-focusing models. Mine is black, but they came in various colours and now seem to becoming popular …

I also realise that it’s not going to make me rich. But neither of those facts are important to me. What is important however, is the fact …
Another budget film camera in the shape of the 1992 Fuji DL-190 Zoom. A fully automatic 35mm point and shoot camera that can be purchased for around £20. Although I only paid £2 for mine. The “DL” refers to “Drop-In Loading” which is something I have not shown before. A feature that makes loading DX …
I thought it might be useful to write a Lightroom Introduction and film it over several episodes. Adobe Lightroom is a leader in photographic management and post production. However, many are intimidated by it. This is the first in a series of videos where I attempt to demystify it’s use. Starting with the “Library” screen, …
The FED 4 is a 35mm film rangefinder camera made by FED and produced between 1964-80 in present-day Ukraine. Lenses, of which there are many choices, can be changed by way of an M39 screw thread. The standard lens that was supplied was a 53mm f2.8. Shutter speeds range from 1s – 1/500s +B, with …
CreatorHub is the place to be…If you’re a creator anyway. One of the biggest challenges faced by anyone who creates content on the web, is getting noticed. It’s a little like Catch 22. You need to be popular to be seen, but need to be seen to become popular. When I started my YouTube channel …
