For this photoshoot I used my Papershoot camera, which is a digital camera that replicates a film cameras. I used 3 of the different colour settings: black and white, orange tint and blue tint. I wanted to experiment with it so I can create photos that look old, linking with the archived. It is difficult to know the exposures and light because the camera is basic, so there is no way of controlling shutter or aperture. I found some of my images were over-exposed so I adjusted the lighting manually in the room. The viewfinder is closer than the lens, so I had difficulty working out the composition.
Example of over exposure
I pulled the curtains to try and control this but it was still top bright – in my next shoot with this camera I will close the curtains fully
