Hi everyone, I'm Daniël Oosterhuis, I'm 18 and from Siddeburen, and am into analog photography. I always have had an interest to do something with photography, but didn't really pick up on it until last year, which is when I went full out and decided that analog would be the way to go. It's not the only interest I have that I do analog, as I also still mess around with vinyl records and tapes, and the physicality and more thought-out nature of analog photography lured me in! Especially for landscaping and nature photographs.
After messing with some compact cameras, I've gotten my hands on a Praktica MTL5 35mm SLR for a measly price at the thrift in great condition. Along with it, I got a bunch of lenses for a similar low price, and one of those lenses is the Jena Biometar 80mm 2.8 M42 lens, which I have grown a great liking to, and it has become my main lens, as my Praktica has become my main 35mm camera. I have also already tried a little bit of medium format with an AGFA Click and Clack, but I hope to get a TLR at some point, maybe a Yashica Mat 124(G) or something like that.
Anyways, I hope that I can learn some more here, and be part of the analog photography movement
