I purchased the camera used from e-bay in 2013, and felt that the internal battery would not hold a charge, even then.

NIKON F6 PROJECT SERIES
Also I want to prioritize series based work and not gear. As the project wore on I ended up getting bored and trying lots of new things is an easy way out. I’m considering my next project for 2017, I like the idea of One Camera, One Lens, One Film for the year, but I want the project to focus and push me, not just generate lots of photos. You can see all the rolls and photos form the project browsing the #52rolls tag. It was a fun project, but glad it is over. I wouldn’t consider the overall project as a series, but more random sets of subjects without a theme besides, “My Year of Shooting” – my ego aside, not an exciting topic. So yes, shooting more, but not more thoughtful, and not pushing myself. The project did require I shoot and post more than normal but the extra work was more ad hoc for example Roll #45 taken while walking the dog and taking the kids to play. I initially thought the quantity of shooting would be tough to keep up with, and there were a few weeks getting the film back and posted in time was close, but overall the quantity was not an issue.I spent too much time on ebay and shooting too many test rolls when I should just be shooting. Once you find a combo that works for you, just stick with it. I’m glad I tested out various cameras and films, but in the end there isn’t really better out there.Shooting a roll of film a week is expensive especially sending it out to labs to be processed and scanned, between film and developing it’s close to $20 a roll.First lesson came from Roll #1, don’t bother with expired film especially for shots you might treasure.
My most frequent combination is relatively obvious, the Nikon F6, 50mm lens, and Kodak Portra.
As the project wore on I ended up getting bored and trying lots of new things is an easy way out. I’m not quite sure why or how so much variety of equipment got mixed in, my initial plan was to keep it simple and use the same camera and film combo throughout. I actually ended up shooting 59 rolls of film, a few were skipped from posting due to poor quality or just outright fail. It has also turned into a bit of mental gymnastics, a warm-up, if you will - as I get my brain going over morning coffee.
The order of photographs is constantly changing as I explore the benefits of pairing and sequencing. I’ve completed my 52 rolls project, shooting a roll of a film a week for the whole year. Dedicated to 35mm film photographs made with the Nikon F6 (and occasionally other Nikon 35mm film cameras).
