The Mijonju Show - Recommanding Diana F+ to Beginners! (DIANA CAMERA PORN BONUS at the end)

Some viewers who are interested in Lo-Fi photography have been asking me, with which camera they should start with? In my opinon the Diana and the diana accessory sets should be the best choice. Here are some links for your aid too.

I just bought the Diana F+ but I have a couple of questions about it. So I set it up manually in order to use a 35 mm film roll and I seem to have set it up right, but I have no idea whether I am actually taking the picture or not. It might seem like a bit of an ignorant question, but I don't want to risk opening up the back and having light leaks ruin the pictures I might have taken. So should the shutter just be going off if I HAVE taken the picture or not? Thanks.

@hajincho ya the shutter goes off, then you advance to the next frame with your 35mm adapter.

very dumb question and im pretty sure of the answer but still... true that you can not use the viewer to adjust focus? can you do it at all or youre supossed to guess?

[Mijonju]

@r17o08b its zone focusing, and the aperture is quite small, so you dont really guess but you read the distance with your eyes.

Where can I buy the shutter stopper??

[Mijonju]

@RyanXHavok its included when you buy it

Wish I had seen this before I got into Holga photography... but I wouldn't be able to switch to Diana because I can't re-purchase all my Holga accesories for Diana ones.

i've only used digital cameras and am interested in beginning film... i have absolutely no experience with film though... would this camera be good to begin with?

@aLiCe80s answer to the question about the price of developing 120 film compared to 35mm, i have a CMYK with a 35mm back on it, she mentioned the 35mm back, which you can buy so that the camera would be able to take 35mm film so in the long run that would work out cheaper because 35mm film is also more widely available and can be done at your local drugstore

She's pretty cute :)

[MsAllnaturalbeauty]

what camera did she hold up at 2:16 next to the diana?

[aLiCe80s]

hi :) im thinking about getting the DianaF+ CMYK and i had a few questions i wanted to ask (im still 16 so dont know much about cameras yet :P) DianaF+ uses 120films right? but ive been googling and found out getting it developed and printed is more expensive than 35mm film so is it better to get Diana Mini? whats the difference with 120 film and 35mm film? and why do you have to get it developed first before printing? so sorry for so many questions :(
