Peace, friends!

Question of the Day:
WHAT'S YOUR GO-TO 35mm SLR/LENS COMBO FOR STREET?

Today, I'm back on these streets making film images so, I'm hype to share, my latest video with you. I recently picked up the Pentax SV 35mm SLR. What a lovely camera. From the all-black camera body to the beautiful, Super Takumar 55mm f/1.8 lens it came with (I also picked up the 28mm f/3.5 and love that lens as well!)

I initially wanted a 35mm SLR to make portraits and that's still the case, I have a few portrait shoots upcoming so hold tight! Once I picked up the 28mm f/3.5 lens I realized I now have the option to do both street and portrait. Bring on the challenges!

In terms of film stock, Kodak Gold 200. This film stock has been a workhorse for me, very reliable, and makes sense economically. I struggled a bit with framing when using the 55mm for street as it is a lot tighter than the 28mm (obvi) but I did manage a couple of solid images.

Overall, this 50+ year old SLR works like a charm. The Super Takumar lenses are sharp and the colour-way is perfect! Today was a good day.

This is Streetsoul.
