you can also get it with a Lomo LC1 - it's a 35mm, with
a lens with pinhole-like falloff, and it has an exposure meter
that will keep the shutter open until it thinks it's received
I just ordered a couple of fully manual Lomos from Free Style Camera. I'll
see what it takes to convert those. $12 each, so not a huge investment. I
did a search for the LC-1 online, but kept getting the LC-A. Is that the
same? Looks like the one Free Style sells for $149.
Sorry, it is the LC-A
> enough light - I've had it stay open 5 minutes. I have photos
from halloween in Greenwich Village a few years ago that
look very much like this one.
I would suspect there is not much variability between photos taken while
driving in traffic at night. ;-)
I have a series that I took by holding the camera against the front
window of the PATH train that went from New Jersey to the WTC.
Exposures of a minute or more, and lots of variation depending on
the lights in the tunnel. I suspect for driving on flat roads without
a lot of buildings you are probably right.
I used to use Agfa Ultra 50 film. I think it's been discontinued,
but it combined long exposure times with over-the-top color.
I have a bunch of it frozen....
