With a humble budget but high standards, I decided to shoot on the Panasonic S1h. We got creative with lens selection, running sometimes two adaptors at once to fly with some old Canon FD glass.

The shoot was a return to exploration, giving ourselves permission to try new things on the day. Everything from placing prisms in front of our lights to taping ND roll in front of the lens. I am very proud of what we accomplished together.
