Headed out just after lunch today to take some photos of the anti-gloria rallies and march to Mendiola. Twas pretty tiring. First time I ran, jumped, and really broke a sweat just for a decent shot since my college photojourn days. I had to use my film cam (a Canon Rebel 2000) coz I loaned my DSLR to a classmate earlier in the day for the documentation of our thesis.
Man, I loved the fifty on that Canon. Though the kick the cam gave me from the slapping upwards of the mirror during shutter release kinda suprised me at first. My Pentax, though it's a semi pro body didn't slap it's mirror that much. I did forgat that the film cam had a bigger mirror than the DSLR.
Though it was quite alright that I didn't see any of my colleagues from DPP, I was glad to meet a member of the Lomo Manila. We seem to have taken notice each other from the fact that we both had film cams... This lomography stuff has got me so fascinated that I wanna try it out sometime... Meeting another film photographer took my mind off earlier incidents during the rally(and almost everytime I use my film cam) that really pissed me off....
I TOTALLY HATE IT WHEN DSLR USERS GIVE ME THAT RAISED EYEBROW WHENEVER THEY SEE THAT I"M JUST HOLDING A FILM CAMERA... I mean WTF, guyz? It is still a camera. AND it's full frame compared to your cropped sensors... :P
But seriously guys... A little respect for another photography enthusiast is in order whenever you meet another photographer in the streets be he/she is using a Kodak Brownie camera or a Nikon D3. Even if just as a sign of courtesy. You oughta be beaten up with your own super telephotos because of your predjudice... You guys make myself ashamed for even owning a DSLR.
maangas lang un dude... who needs an SLR camera with shots like yours. naalala mo pa ung winning shot mo nung nasa UAAP tau?? Hehehe!!
