Everything you wanted to know about auto (thyristor) flash photography …but were afraid to ask

Everything you wanted to know about auto (thyristor) flash photography …but were afraid to ask

I am familiar with flash photography. Much of what I shoot digitally, either in the studio or in the real world, is done with flash. On camera, off-camera, one flash, 6 strobes, no problem. I am, however, no hero. Shooting flash with digital is simple. I am good at simple things.

I would even go so far as to say that shooting off-camera flash with photographic film is also pretty simple. Between a light meter and “digital Polaroids,” transitioning from digital to film with off-camera flash was not too challenging.

Purple nights on Lomochrome Purple with the Pixels and Grain Collective

Purple nights on Lomochrome Purple with the Pixels and Grain Collective

Lomochrome Purple XR 100-400 is an interesting film, with unclear origins, that shifts colours towards the purple spectrum, like a fantasy/dream.  Greens become purple, blues aqua/green, and skin tones orangey, in a psychedelic way. Iso 100? 200? 400? Take your pick!  

While there are many articles out there about the colour shifting properties of this film, and great examples of how it is used in landscape, portrait, even pinhole photography, there is almost no information about shooting this at night, reciprocity characteristics, or any tips.

5 Frames… Of my quarantine in Vietnam with ORWO N74 plus on a Nikon F3HP (35mm format / EI 800 / Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 AI-S) – by Sasi Somu

5 Frames…  Of my quarantine in Vietnam with ORWO N74 plus on a Nikon F3HP (35mm format / EI 800 / Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 AI-S) – by Sasi Somu

I flew into Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, late in the night to be unceremoniously whisked off to spend the next 15 days in quarantine in a 3×4 meter hotel room. I was there on a work assignment that was going to last a few months hence I brought along my trusty workhorse; Nikon F3HP with Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 lens, and 3 rolls of film.

One can only do so much in quarantine, apart from doing my regular work online; I watched TV, read books, meditated, exercised and did some serious contemplation.
