Taken with a Boots Disc 515 camera on Fotoman film which expired in 1987. I made a set of simple filters using layers of coloured acetate. There are four different coloured acetates, each of my filters consisted of three layers in various combinations. Old film loses light sensitivity, and with the additional light loss caused by the filters, I pointed my camera directly at the sun in order to make sure enough light got to the film. This was entirely experimental, and I'm quite pleased with the results. This is a scan of the whole disc.

I took the camera to the London meetup of the Film Photography Podcast Flickr group. The film is Kodacolor VR, which expired in 1986, I developed it in the Tetenal C41 kit. Considering the age of the film, the results could have been a lot worse!

Disc film taken at the opening of my exhibition in Derby on 25th June. Disc film was made between 1982 and 1999, each disc took 15 photos, the negatives were tiny and the image quality was poor. This Halina Disc 100 camera carries the Radio Rentals name and was probably a free gift. My film expired in 1994 further contributing to the poor image quality. I used an external flash which failed to fire on 2 occasions, I also managed to get my finger in the way a couple of times!

In 2021 I intend to use a different film format each month, staring with the smallest and working my way up the sizes. In January I used the Minox format, for February I'm using the obsolete Disc Film format. The negative size is the same as that of the Minox 8mm x 11mm, but there are 15 negatives on a rotating disc rather than on a roll of film. The discs were last made in 1999, I have a few left, this one expired in 1989, and the results are better than I expected. The camera is a Boots Disc 515, which has a flash and motor drive, unlike most electrical disc cameras which have batteries that can't be accessed or replaced, this one uses standard AA batteries. This is a scan of the whole disc.
