There was an extremely large learning curve for me. Finding what camera,how to do the development process,where to get the film, and all the adjustments that are needed when using an older camera.
I use a Polaroid Land Camera 200's series for the camera. The film I use is FUJIFILM FP-3000B.They are made for the old Polaroid Land camera. They are pricey.$20+ per pack....and... you only get 10 picture per pack.  I probably wasted about $100 just in film playing with the setting and learning the process of instant pack film. Some packs were wasted because it got jammed when pulling your snapshot out of the camera. However...It is a very rewarding experience once you get it down.
I started small ( Brevard County Manatees ) then, when I got the process down(took a few months)..I was aiming towards taking a trip to Tampa for Jeter's last game against the Rays. It was very cool experience, but it was extremely crowded and Jeter never came by my area once. Mark Tex did notice me and stop..gave me a thumbs up and said," Love it!" Part of the learning experience with that was not having the big ol'flash blub. The Tropicana Field wasn't friendly for my camera due to the lights being so high up and it was dark inside. Still happy to get some shots of what I could on Jeter last games and they will be going into my HOF snapshot collection |
Great stuff. Next time you are at the park.....dress the part (vintage clothing, top hat, etc.) That will certainly gain some player attention!
Can't wait to see the next round of photos.....
