One month till 127 Day - January 27, 2021

127 Day is just one month away - on  Wednesday, January 27, 2021. This would be a good time to make sure your 127-format camera is working and you have the film you need.

127 Film Photography will feature 127-format photographs made on January 27, 2021, in a special online exhibition. You're invited to participate!

No fees, no competition, just a friendly virtual community joining together to make 127-format photos on
January 27, 2021.

To show your work,

  1. Take 127-format photographs on January 27, 2021.
  2. Send one of your 127-format photographs from January 27  to 127 Film Photography. Please email one jpg file, 500 pixels wide, to 127filmformat ~at~ gmail.com, by February 27, 2021. (This allows a month to get your film developed and scanned).
  3. In the subject line of your email, type "January 2021 127 Day."
  4. In the body of the email, please include the copyright symbol, your name, the title of the photograph, location, camera and film types, and your website address (or other link to your work). In that order. Please follow this example EXACTLY (you don't have to use initials if you prefer to be known by your full name!). If you want to direct people to an Instagram page, please use the URL for the page, not an "@" handle (which will not work as a link).

All types of 127 film format* are welcome, whether the film began its existence as 127, or you used 35 mm film in a 127 camera, or you respooled 46mm film, or you cut down 120 film to 127 size ... or maybe you have a technique that I don't know about yet - if so, please tell me so I can share it with others who love this format (with full credit to you, of course - or perhaps you'd like to write an article for 127 Film Photography about it!). Photos made on 127 film in a different size camera are welcome too.

127 Film Photography will publish all photos received (as long as they are in 127 format and do not contain images of nudity, violence, or exploitation).

I look forward to seeing your 127 Day photos! 

 

Good light and happy photographing!


*Sorry, digital photos in an aspect ratio similar to 127 film (or any other digital photos) do NOT qualify.

  1. Just getting started here in 127 film. Been mostly interested in 16mm stills and 110, and some 126's. I really like my Yashica 44A. I do 120 also.
    There is an ad on Fleabay for 180 feet of Fuji HR microfilm for only about $30 including shipping. The 105mm width allows slitting into a 45mm width and a 60mm width, useful in 127 and 120 cameras. I'd be interested in sharing with someone for a small group purchase. Shipping would be the major expense. Any interest here?
