My initial try with this camera was marred by the horrible out of date Polaroid brand film I used with it. If it hadn’t otherwise been such a good performing camera I would have just left it at that but it seemed to deserve another roll.
\nAnd how do I feel now? Well it’s a good camera with great ergonomics as I outlined in my first post\u00a0 Ricoh RZ3000 <\/a>, but as for results it doesn’t produce anything that necessarily stands out. I could go back to bad film, that stands out but otherwise it doesn’t really give me a look that says this is why I still shoot film.
\nWhen I choose to use film one of the reasons is the overall experience of the camera, such as using a Twin Lens or a\u00a0rangefinder but with the RZ3000 it’s almost too much like just using a digital camera. So as good as it is it will go back into a small box with similar cameras until I forget what I just wrote and take it out again.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
