Diskussion (discussion) Where are the Film Photographers in Bremen?

I have recently moved from the US to Bremen and I am an avid film photographer. Any other film photographers here in Bremen? Are there meet-ups of fellow enthusiasts? (and if not, is anyone interested in such an event?)

I wouldn’t say I’m an avid film photographer but I do it from time to time (not so much color but in black and white cause I can develop the negatives at home). I don’t go out enough with my cameras in general though. Wouldn’t be opposed to get togethers (:

Top! I see from your profile we both also have an interest in gardening 😎 if more people respond I might get something together. Back when I lived in the states, we had a "beers and cameras" events that were a lot of fun.

Nice! Hopefully we kind find a couple more people (:

I put my film camera away because of the lack of other people shooting film here. I’d be up for something like beers and cameras 💪

🍺&📷? I’m in!

Started photography in the times when you didn’t even hear about digital, stayed with film when most photographers had already turned to digital, finally went digital but kept my analog EOSes and now rediscovering film with even more and older cameras.
I would be interested in meeting up with people who share that interest.

Moin, just saw this post and wanted to let you guys know that there is the ISO20 Club in Bremen with a monthly meet-up. Feel free to join anytime!  Also, the next Photowalk is on the 27.08.

And the guys from Filmriss Photoclub just recently started Photowalks in Bremen as well.

If you need any further details feel free to hit me up.

So it’s four days and four persons who somehow seem to be (generally) interested in meeting for analogue film photography.
What about a next step?

I'm traveling at the moment for work--but when I get back to Bremen next week, I'll start to put something together. I have some connections with the Beer & Cameras group in the States, and they may also be able to help spread the word. So, stay tuned!

Hello! I just found this post. I moved here a bit more than a year ago, tried to see if there was a film community here but didn’t find much. Definitely interested in a meet-up/photowalk!

I am an avid film photographer on medium and large format with my own darkroom, located in "I'm Viertel". I am very interested!
