Film Photography Podcast 374 - Olympus LT Zoom 105

Author: Michael Raso April 15, 2026 Duration: 57:25
Topics include the Godox Senior Retro Flash, Olympus LT Zoom 105 compact camera, the history of 828 roll film, and more including a few fun surprises along the way.

There's a particular sound a film advance lever makes, a specific weight to a vintage camera in your hands, that many thought was lost to the digital age. Film Photography Podcast, guided by Michael Raso, exists because that tactile, deliberate way of seeing the world is very much alive. This isn't a technical manual, though you'll certainly pick up practical tips; it's more like a regular gathering in a friendly darkroom. Conversations here delve into the entire experience-from the hunt for forgotten cameras at flea markets and the alchemy of developing your own rolls, to the stories behind a single, perfect frame captured on emulsion. You'll hear from photographers who never left the medium and newcomers just discovering its unique challenges and rewards. Each episode of this podcast feels like a shared exploration, celebrating the mistakes, the surprises, and the sheer joy of creating something tangible. Whether you're dusting off an old family relic or are deeply invested in the contemporary film scene, the discussions foster a genuine sense of community around these analog arts. It’s about the craft, the history, and the ongoing conversation between the photographer, the tool, and the physical photograph itself.
