Film in Costa Rica: Hasselblad XPan, Contax G1 and Yashica T4

Braedon takes three very different film cameras to Costa Rica: the panoramic Hasselblad XPan, the Contax G1 rangefinder, and the pocketable Yashica T4. Each one brings something different to travel photography, and this video shows exactly how they each perform in tropical light.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best film camera for travel?

For travel, compact point-and-shoot cameras like the Yashica T4 and Contax T2 are ideal. They fit in a pocket and produce outstanding results. For more creative control, rangefinders like the Contax G1 offer excellent image quality in a smaller body. Browse point-and-shoot cameras here.

What film should I use for travel and landscapes?

Kodak Ektar 100 is the sharpest, most saturated option for landscapes. Kodak Portra 400 is more versatile in varied lighting and is a great all-rounder for travel. Both are available at Film Supply Club.
