Kodak Vision3 500T Film Photography at Night on Contax G1

The next test I might try to shoot a little slower pace and will try to remind me to recompose the shot! I like some of the shot because it does look cinematic just like in the movie if it’s not street photography style. I am just wondering if compared the 1-year expired film stock with a fresh roll, will the photos look different? And what if I shoot it at 400 ISO? Will the diffusion filter with 20% density will ruin the photos?

Well, there are still many questions lingering in my mind about film photography at night. The only way to cure my curiosity is to find out by testing it. Let’s check out some of my favourite shots from the night shoot on film. I have been questioning using Contax G1 for creative street photography.

I was shooting the film at box speed at ISO 500 and trying to avoid pushing the film (yeah I know I can push film) but that will introduce more grains in the meantime underexposed the film. Why not just use the available artificial lights with a ‘steady’ hand, and keep track of my shutter speed (hmmm… trying my best to be a human tripod), I guess that works.
