Because the Contax 645 shoots medium format film where each frame is 6&#8243;x4.5&#8243; (hence the name Contax 645), anything with a 6:4.5 aspect ratio (or 3:4) is film. Anything that is 2:3 in this shoot is digital. I like making film and digital flow well together. What is funny is how long it takes in editing to get the digital pictures to flow well with film, while I spent zero time editing the film pictures. Both mediums have their merits though. I get more spontaneous moments on digital when I blast three shots in a row during a sweet moment. I am not concerned with overshooting and therefore I can catch the split second moment that I may have not otherwise shot on film. On film, I tend to only shoot when I know it will be good because each shot costs money. In effect, nearly all of my film pictures look awesome, require very little sorting or editing, but with digital, I may catch something special. More and more I am learning to catch these moments on film, learning to anticipate them in ways I haven&#8217;t had to when shooting only digital. Shooting film is forcing me to be a better photographer, and I love it. I will probably never abandon digital all together though, because I love pushing the front edge of technology to make art, and like I said it has many merits of its own for photography, not even considering the many terabytes of HD home videos I have shot on our 5D. Those are priceless memories that I could not have gotten on film.<\/p>\n<p>Jordin and I are planning an overseas trip this winter, and I will probably bring my 35mm rangefinder (Zeiss Ikon ZM) for most photos and our 5D for home videos around the place we stay. This has been my latest &#8220;go-to&#8221; for our personal work, and I usually also bring the Contax 645 to engagements and weddings for the big pretty smeary pictures. For styled shoots, I typically shoot all film (Zeiss Ikon + Contax645 + EOS-3).<\/p>\n<p>All the film in this shoot is Kodak Portra 400.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pp-post-sig\">\n<p><iframe src=\"\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/like.php?href=https:\/\/www.curtiswiklund.com\/blog\/2013\/09\/drew-beth\/&#038;send=false&#038;layout=button_count&#038;width=450&#038;show_faces=false&#038;action=like&#038;colorscheme=light&#038;font&#038;height=35&#038;appId=155641147827668\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height:35px;\" allowTransparency=\"true\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div id=\"fb-root\"><\/div>\n<p><script>(function(d, s, id) {\n  var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];\n  if (d.getElementById(id)) return;\n  js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;\n  js.src = \"\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/all.js#xfbml=1&appId=123475274349760\";\n  fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);\n}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));<\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-like-box\" data-href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/CurtisWiklundPhotography\" data-width=\"292\" data-height=\"80\" data-show-faces=\"false\" data-stream=\"false\" data-header=\"false\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For those who like learning about film: This was a &#8220;hybrid shoot&#8221; with a digital camera (5D III) and a film camera (Contax 645).
