About

This Channel is for photographers shooting black and white film. Many of us have been shooting digital photos for years, but some photographers want to expand their knowledge, and explore the roots of photography by shooting film. Join Rob Skeoch as he explores black and white photography and making prints in a conventional darkroom. Rob's been doing black and white since he started hight school in 1974 and although the industry changed to digital, he has continued to shoot film since the 70's. Now most images are for gallery shows but for years Rob was shooting 20-30 rolls a week as a full-time newspaper photographer and then a sports photographer for clients like the NFL and MLB. And yes Rob does have a good understanding of digital photography, working 14 years as a manager for the Digital Imaging division of Sony.

Video Description

Are you interested in the Leica MP analogue camera, then this review will help you out? Buying new, or used, Rob goes over the features of the Leica MP silver camera, and compares it to the M6 and also shows what to watch for if you're buying a used one. The Leica MP 0.72 is such a great camera to shoot with and is perfect for shooting black and white film. The review is about the Leica MP film camera, not the MP Digital and not the MP classic that came out in 1956. Rob was selling his personal silver MP 0.72 on eBay. The auction is now over.

Rob Skeoch is a career photographer, working for five newspapers and wire services before joining the team at Major League Baseball for 17 seasons and the NFL for 14 seasons. Then he was a national manager for the camera group at Sony North America before going back to shooting. Now he shoots for gallery shows around the world, mostly street work and portraits made with a Hasselblad and Rollei twin lens. For 35mm shooting he uses a Nikon F3 and a couple M-mount Leica cameras and shoots mostly Ilford film.
