As posted last night, I did a photo shoot with !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! 's Gran Torino. Anyway, I processed the other roll with pictures, and got it scanned in.

Technical info:

Camera: Mamiya/Sekor 500TL

Lens: Mamiya 50mm f/2

Film: Kodak Portra 160

Post-Processing done in Adobe Lightroom.

On to the pictures...

Looks like they were taken when the car was new

Well, I did shoot it on a camera that predates the Gran Torino, processed it by hand, then scanned it in. :D

Just one of your many anachronisms, Rotors. It does look way cooler this way.

Niiice. I love the look of film. Some of the shots of badging and stuff have almost a far too shallow depth of field. Artistically it’s neat but “O spo” is kind of a meaningless section of the badge to have in focus, lol.

I’m inclined to agree. It really was more of a learning experiment for me, more than anything. I had film to shoot through a new-to-me camera, he was willing to let me take pictures of a giant red thing, and I got to work on my development chops.

I’m just happy that they came out this well.

The interior shots remind me of a shot I got of a friend’s camaro dash.
