One Roll of Film project

A very interesting project, four Tokyo-based photographers taking the challenge of shooting one roll of 120 film on a old Hasselblad analog camera.

A fantastic idea, documenting the process of taking exceptional pictures. Compared to digital the photographers start to think much more about composition of the image, about the light, about the camera setting, they develop patience, they develop a vision of what they are going to shoot first.

Learning about this project on YouTube and watching the documentary, I became much more aware of what it means to take exceptional pictures, about how to deal with all the details in the process.
It's about really developing the handcraft of the art of photography.

Have a look at the documentary:
