ANALOGUE: Fujifilm TX-1

The Hasselblad Xpan is the camera I got the best results from with the shortest time spent so I have been hunting for one since. Two years later, this Fujifilm TX-1 surfaced, how could I resist?

 

In seriously mint condition, bundled with a Hasselblad 90mm f/4 lens and only 40 rolls have been put through according to this camera's computers. It even came with its original strap and holster. It would have been even better if it came with the 30mm lens but let's not be too greedy. Since I have shot with the 45mm lens before, I paired the TX-1 to the 90mm for the first two rolls of film. The results were disappointing as it could be down to three reasons.

 

One, I'm visually impaired as most of the pictures were out of focus when most of them were shot at f/8 or narrower if lighting conditions allow. Second reason, the viewfinder needs calibration or a service. Lastly, the Fujifilm TX-1 could be a different camera to the Hasselblad Xpan. I mean, just look at them, even the colour is not the same. Anyhow, enjoy these photos in the meantime while I do some investigation work testing things out with the other lens.
