Film Cameras UK

Yet another Polaroid Land Camera in. Very good condition this one so we’re asking £30. Tested, works perfectly. Ships with some free ND filters so #Polaroid 600 film can be used in it. #BelieveInFilm #InstantPhotography filmcameras.uk/product/pola...

Had to just back this on @kickstarter.com 😍 www.kickstarter.com/projects/lig...

We were getting these stickers dialled-in on a friend’s new Roland large format eco-solvent printer. Once we’re happy, some more sticker sheets featuring popular designs from our Merch range (filmcameras.uk/product-cate...) are planned 🙌

From a quick stroll to the park to test this Land Camera ‘The Button’. No SX-70 to hand so this was taken using some of my @filmcameras.uk Polaroid ND filters and 600 film. —  📷: Polaroid ‘The Button’ Land Camera 🎞: Polaroid 600 + 2 stop ND gel    —   #instantfilm #polaroid

We have a bunch of perfectly good old Digital cameras and accessories - often arriving along with film camera purchases - that should get sold. Having next to no interest in digital, we don’t really want them on the site… but *IF* a section was added to flog them, what should it be called?

Just listed: Nikon RF2. A 35mm compact from 1988 featuring auto flash, DX coding, motor wind, two self-timers, 35mm lens & focus memory. Fully working, film tested, & cleaned. Asking: £35.   —   5% discount for BACS payments 💷   —   #believeinfilm #filmphotography filmcameras.uk/product/niko...

Well… we seem to have run out of cameras (besides some APS stuff) and lenses. Oops. Better get in the workshop over the break! I blame Google Merchant listings actually working too well, and the owner/technician/purchaser/developer/accountant/marketeer (me) not working well enough!

(Last orders today for 'cheap' postage - 😬 filmcameras.uk - #FilmPhotography #BelieveInFilm)

Anyone need a Pentax film camera manual? We’ve probably got it, and if it’s not listed (here: filmcameras.uk/product-cate...) then it’s likely sat in the HUGE pile to be added, so just ask 😅 #FilmCameras #BelieveInFilm #FilmPhotography

Morning all. Woke up and decided to have a ‘sale’ on Polaroid Cameras. All working, clean, tested. Have a little look if you want: filmcameras.uk/product-cate... #BelieveInFilm #Polaroid #FilmPhotography

Reminder: Don’t let your loved ones leave batteries in their cameras… #BelieveInFilm #FilmPhotography

This brave OM-10 is donating its prism to a blind OM-1n. Like the whales caught by Aboriginal whalers, (almost) every part of it will be used. Thank you brother OM 🙏 #FilmPhotography #BelieveInFilm

Not very good with the whole video shorts/reels thing, but there have been a few questions about how the Polaroid ND Filters we sell actually work. So here's a bit of an explainer youtube.com/shorts/ZX18e... #Polaroid #FilmPhotography

Still riding the Polaroid ‘phase’. New on the site: Polaroid 636 Close-up – £37 The Button Land Camera (SX-70) – £25 Polatronic 1 Flash – £15 Lots more pics and example shots using each, here: filmcameras.uk/product-tag/... #FilmPhotohraphy #BelieveInFilm #Polaroid

Have to praise LEE Filters for excellent customer service. Ordered a roll of ND film/gel – the raw material for our Polaroid ND Filters – and it turned up a bit crumpled and dusty. I emailed them at 7am yesterday, they had shipped me a new roll by 9:30am, and it turned up at home just now 👌

Just packed up this nice little Fujicolor Reala film case with belt hook, to hold 3 rolls of 35mm film. Not seen another one. Anyone remember if they were exhibition freebies or something back in the day? #FilmPhotography

New T-shirt design: Let’s all go to Franke & Heidecke’s for some Calzones, some Haloumi Fries, and a Rolleiflex! Hand drawn design - once in pencil & once in vectors - then printed on lovely organic cotton tees with vegan inks 🌱 #BelieveInFilm #FilmPhotography filmcameras.uk/product/fran...

Just had a casual little product photography session for a new tee design (proper post tomorrow). Needs must when you don’t have any proper lights, a neutral backdrop or a single working DSLR/Mirrorless camera…😅 first time I’ve ironed a sheet in decades… and it shows!

New on the site: A very tidy Polaroid 1000 Land Camera + Polatronic 1 flash + some ND Filters thrown in so 600 film can be used. This is from my own collection 😔 but I’m having a much needed cull. More pics and example shots here: filmcameras.uk/product/pola... #Polaroid #FilmPhotography

Fresh stock in to produce more Polaroid ND filter sets tomorrow 😬 #BelieveInFilm #Polaroid

This Weston Master III works well and it’s very tidy for a septuagenarian. Includes solid case in very good condition, from an earlier v2 meter. Asking: £25. More: filmcameras.uk/product/west.... —   📦 Free UK shipping over £50 • 5% discount for BACS 💷   —   #FilmPhotography #BelieveInFilm

Without using a search engine or other reference system, do you know why the names 'Franke & Heidecke' are significant? For want of a polling system here, perhaps you could 'like' or reply with a thumbs-up if you do. #FilmPhotography #BelieveInFilm (this is rudimentary market research init!)

Here’s a very tidy set of Rolleinar 2 / Rolleiparkeil 2 close-up lenses for Bay 1 #Rolleiflex & #Rolleicord TLRs. Asking: £50.  More info and images: filmcameras.uk/product/roll... —   📦 Free UK shipping over £50 • 5% discount for BACS payments 💷   —   #MediumFormat #FilmPhotography

Now £40. Small price drop on this film tested and tidy #Polaroid ONE. Go have a look. filmcameras.uk/product/pola... #FilmPhotography #BelieveInFilm

“Passed” 👌 🙏

I'm thinking about extending the photowalk.me functionality to photography clubs. It would give clubs their own landing page, membership admin, collection of fees, club calendar of events etc. Is there anyone on here a member or organiser of a photo club who would find this of interest?

Well.. that's a first... somebody must have asked what they needed in order to use M42 lenses with their FujiX mount body 🤷🏻‍♂️. Thanks AI. I guess. Still hate you though.

It’s a small step, but really I’m pleased to have some Film Cameras UK stock in local lab, The Darkroom UK 😊 #FilmPhotography #Polaroid

Really must get back to fixing some “proper” cameras and put these fun Polaroids down. On the bench needing various things: Olympus OM1n, Trip & OM10. Pentax SuperA. Canon T70. About 25 lenses, various. Under the bench: About 50-60 other items requiring some kind of repair. #FilmPhotography

Any human proofreaders left? I'd love to know how this reads and whether it makes sense please - Ben filmcameras.uk/how-to-use-y...

This 1st Gen Polaroid ONE has: Clamshell design to protect the gizzards. Flash with on/off/red-eye modes. Self-timer. Tripod mount (!!) and clever wrist/palm strap arrangement. Think of the creative options 🤔. It’s good, so we’re asking £45. #BelieveInFilm #Polaroid filmcameras.uk/product/pola...

Very pleased to find some #Polaroid 600 locally at Clifton Cameras (nowhere near Clifton now 😅). With pretty strong feelings about ‘buying local’ and not from BigCorpInc etc, I usually get it from a tiny shop in Cirencester, but they had no stock. Now to test some more cameras! 🙌 #BelieveInFilm

Here’s a perfectly good, working and film-tested Polaroid P 600 (close-up + flash), selling for a bit less because it has a few marks. Asking £25. Go take a look: filmcameras.uk/product/pola... #InstantPhoto #BelieveInFilm #FilmPhotography

On a #Polaroid trip at the moment. Here’s a fully working and film tested 636 CloseUp for sale. Testing gives us excuses to capture shenanigans like Stan and Duggee here 😊. Asking £35. – #FilmPhotography #InstantPhotogtaphy filmcameras.uk/product/pola...
