Widelux

John Vlautin March 1, 2018

A number of years ago I picked up a Widelux camera.  It's Japanese and mine is from the 70s.  It's a totally manual film camera in which the lens slowly turns to give a panoramic effect.  I first discovered its existence after becoming obsessed with a book of photographs taken by Jeff Bridges, the actor, on the sets of many of the great movies he has starred in.  

The camera gives everything a kind of soft movie star glow, and you never know exactly what you're going to get, resulting in many happy surprises.
