As usual the following rules apply:

- Must be taken by you
- Must be on film
- Must have been taken, developed and scanned prior to the start date of this challenge.
- Discussion in the discussion thread (link below) rather than this Entries thread, please.

Please include details of the camera, lens, film etc and anything else of relevance if you can possibly remember that far back.

One Entry per person only.

Entries close at midnight on Wednesday 10th July 2024, to be followed by the poll which will run for 3 days.

Please keep all discussion and comments in the "new old film discussion thread" - https://www.talkphotography.co.uk/threads/new-old-film-challenge-discussion-thread.698995/page-20

I'll kick this off...



Two boys have just visited the Royal Armouries.

Minolta X300, probably a 35mm lens. Fuji Reala 100, almost certainly OOD.

Ooh, shoehorn alert!

The Old Fulling Mill, Durham. Which as people almost certainly know is below Durham Cathedral. Which people will also know is part of the Durham Castle and Cathedral UNESCO World Heritage Site. Which as we all know are virtually museums! Ta Da!



Canon F-1
Canon FD 35-70 f/4 (probably)
Kodachrome 200

1987 (probably)

Double Shoehorn Alert........... From 2019, Bronica SQ-Ai, FP$ (had to resize this today for upload).

They run it as a bit of a period show thing, you can pay to go inside and look around.

British Museum in 2009. Canon T70, Tokina 17mm lens, Fuji Pro 800Z film.

 

[Kell]

Radcliffe Camera, Oxford.

I 'think' it qualifies as a museum. Certainly, it is open to the public at certain times and you have to pay to go in, so...

Taken earlier this year on a day-trip to Oxford with my daughter.

Minolta X-500 + Ilford XP2 + Minolta 24/2.8

New Lanark is a historic village maintained as original as possible, so that's a type of museum I think. The worker's houses were actually single rooms which provided all the living accommodation for each family, so obviously really cramped. Photo is of the sleeping (and washng!) arrangements and probably Nikon F80, Gold, Filmdev.

Penny Farthing in Coventry Transport Museum, part of the history of the cycle, with which Coventry is so much associated!



Tri-X in a Pentax MX, lens unknown.
