I do a variety of photography genres for this blog using an assortment of digital and film cameras and lenses that I have in my collection. The range of paraphernalia includes, interestingly, a circa 2011 candy-bar Nokia Asha 300 feature phone which came with a fixed-focus 5MP rear-facing camera which is a kind of favorite of mine right now.
Nokia Asha 300
What I like most about the 5MP camera on the Nokia 300 are images that are tone-perfect bright daylight images that are sharp, crisp, and clear which never fails to impress.
As I carry the camera around almost everywhere I go, the urge to capture images that are constant, lingering, and sometimes repetitive, especially for low-light or night shots. For these shots, I try to hold the camera steady for a while longer so that the extended exposure time the camera is capable of is fully utilized.
No, I won't even term these images as long-exposure shots, even if they really are. To me, these are just images from an extended exposure photography outing with a handheld candy-bar feature phone camera, the Nokia Asha 300. Images were post-processed on Olympus Workspace and print sharpened on Google NIK Sharpener Pro3.
