The Film Photography of Devin Booker

I was watching the Olympics and happened to see that Devin Booker was carrying an interesting camera. After looking more closely I discovered that he was carrying a Fuji GA645ZI medium format rangefinder. After looking around on the internet, I also found that he shoots a Contax T2 like me and everyone else. In this video I take a look at Devin's Booker's film cameras and some of his images.

I go to his lab in Mesa, AZ. He’s been known to drop in from time to time. I shot his Nikon F3 when he was in Paris since he left it at the Lab for people to check out. Shout out strap film lab!

Ooohhh boy the prices are gonna rise for those 😂.

i sold my zi 2 months ago, i hope the price doesnt skyrocket or im gonna feel real dumb about the price i got for mine.

i might pick up a ga645 wide one day. i just didnt ever use the zoom function so the zi didnt make sense to me. my main issue with the ga645 system as a whole is the max shutter speed. having to stop down to accomodate for a max speed of 1/400 negates a lot of the desirable qualities of shooting in medium format. you can get around it with an nd, but then you have to accomodate for it when you meter because its a ttf meter. and it resets your exposure compensation every time you power the camera off. so for what i was trying to use it for it just became much more fiddly and cumbersome.

it did open my eyes to the fact that i dont really mind fussing over a camera on a day to day carry basis, but i did learn that if im going to have to put more effort into using whatever camera im using, i want to enjoy the process. and i didnt enjoy the “process” of using my ga645 the way i wanted to use it.

so now i carry an rb67 eberywhere 😅

Heh, locally for me, Chris Godwin on the Tampa Bay Bucs uses either a Contax G1 or G2 (I can't recall), but there was a local story on it(I think he goes to the same lab too) Looks like he takes it seriously based on his IG page and some of the stuff he's shown on.

I've used the GA645Zi for years. It's a wonderful travel camera. Unfortunately, it suffers from LCD bleed in the door, really poor design, virtually all will have it. Image quality is spectacular and I can still use it despite the ribbon cable issue.

you are missing one thing he is 1, 98m or 6.8f imagine his palm size... its not that big for him. and on photo with t2 it feels not that comfortable for him

Dude, the lack of gringo's knowlegde... that part of the ceremony is not inspired by "The Last Supper" it was inspired by "La Fiesta de Los Dioses" a painting by Jan van Bijlert the guy painted in blue characterizes Bako the God of wine and party and not Jesus.
