Rollei Digibase CN 200 Pro: Charming Colors from Belgium

4 19

This is Rollei and it hails from Belgium, its charming colors made me fall in love after shooting the first roll!

In the beginning, I was attracted by the “Rollei” brand name, and bought the film without knowing what I am getting into. It was only later when I realized that it wasn’t produced by Rollei, but by Agfa’s Belgium factory.

The first roll gave me a very strong feel, the colors are neutral, with a refreshing look, similar to those cinema films.

It has good indoor performance as well!

One special feature of this film is that its base emulsion is not the normal orange color of negative films but transparent! But fret not, it is a real color negative film and can be processed using C41 solutions.

Hi I like the photos. The main photo and the girl on the train shot did you have them printed on glossy or matt paper originally and then scanned them? Regards, Brandt!

Reflections on Using Lomography Film For the First Time
written by sylvann on 2022-07-28 #people #places

I've always resonated with the 10th rule in Lomography's 10 Golden Rules. Aside from throwing away the worries and shooting with wild abandon, in a way it also means that I get to create and re-create my own rules. As a beginner in film photography, that's been a cathartic approach for me.
