LC-W Going All Over

This must be one of my ‘best travelled’ roll of film. Loaded in my LC-Wide … this 24 exposure roll of Sensia 400 followed me to Malaysia, went on a short shooting trip with me (and cyanwater) to Kampung Buangkok, accompanied me on a beer cum shooting session with Jimmy and then finally to an early dinner at Bottle Tree Village. Amazing how I can make 24 exposures last that long! Honestly … it was because I usually have more than one camera with me and couldn’t concentrate on finishing a roll. 😛

Luckily it was a roll of ISO400 film … otherwise I might not be able to shoot these 2 beautiful birds that evening at Bottle Tree Village.

I’m begining to love the LC-W more each time I use it. Using it with the Instax back ain’t that too fun though … perhaps all because of the small Instax Mini films. More about that later when I get the recent test run (LC-W + Instax back) photos scanned.

Jack & Jill went up the hill … God knows what they did up there (because I didn’t peep)! 😛

Jim & his pet … Fujipet! Oh man … I’ve been taking one too many photos of him lately. Better stop doing it before I start screaming his name in my sleep. Duh!

This one (above) was not meant to be like this. I took a first exposure of a bright signboard and thought I could shoot the 2nd exposure later. Fitzand saw me and ran in front of me … insisting that I take a photo of him. 😀 I love this shot!

I was looking at the negatives (before scanning them) and wondered how come I have this shot of a boy behind a pillar. Hahaha! It was only after scanning that I realised it ain’t Fitzand … but a boy looking all emo while waiting for his turn on the swing.

I did have a couple of overlapping (a little) frames in this roll. Not sure if it is the advancing mechanism giving problem but I guess I’ll let it be and fire another few rolls to find out.

  1. @ymmij : Little? 24 exposures = 24 pics! 😀 You sold me this roll of 24 exp film and now you ask me? LOL! Did you charge me for 36 exp???!!!

  2. Nice…looking very sharp…BUT somehow the essence of fuzziness from toy cam is missing.

  3. @evaeva : Thanks 🙂

    @Ta : Thank you! Getting one?

    @Jer : Thanks. Yeah … even the LC-A+ is pretty sharp. My LC-A+ is a bit different because Fitzand dropped it a couple of times when he was younger and now mine has some fuzzy dreamy effect on the sides when focused at infinity. 😀

  4. Nah…I didn’t like the feel of it in the hand…the bit around the lens makes it a little awkward for me not as snugly in the hand as the lc-a…Narrow escape!

  5. @Ta : I agree about the handling of the LC-W especially after you’ve been groping the LC-A for a while. Takes a bit of getting used to … I think. 😀
