Dear Zeiss: Please Bring Back the Contax T2 Film Point and Shoot Camera

In my mind, the film Renaissance is bigger than we'd like to think; but it can be even larger. When speaking to friends who handle sales in the film world, the sales of film itself isn't necessarily up anymore than it was compared to digital.

However, the sales of Instax and instant film is really up there. With folks like Kendal Jenner and Chris Helmsworth using the Contax T2, people have been looking to get their hands on it. The prices on eBay skyrocket to $2,000 and even higher in some cases. Indeed, it is a popular film camera that is highly sought after partially due to its celebrity status. While many of us know that it's not the camera that takes the picture (it's the photographer, you dummy) there is certainly appeal about the Contax T2. .

Useful Photography Tip #187: How to Remember What 120 Film You Were Shooting With

Most Medium Format cameras don't have some sort of window on the back of the camera that you can peer into; that's one of the many way that they differ from 35mm cameras. So then the question becomes how to remember what film you've got in that camera? Well, the answer varies but the most consistent one that you'll find is that you should be using the little note holder on either the back of the camera or the film back depending on what you're using. thephoblographer.com »
