I like to use a 16mm camera called Kyiv Vega. It has some problems with lens and small frame, so it gave me possibilities to take the mood and atmosphere, not objects. I think that's the main task for photography. Also I use the Push / Pull process because my film is about 50 years old. After that I scan the film and add some noise. Yes, 16mm film it's probably one big grain, but when you add some noise the photos become more understandable and look like pictures from very old books.
