How one photographer embraced a broken Leica sensor and fell in love with its haunting photos.
both put it better than I ever could. The need to consume, the need for the next camera that will make you better than the one before. Don’t get me wrong, there is obviously such a thing as the right tool for the job. For example, a professional mirrorless camera for a wedding, not a turn-of-the-century compact camera. But I posit that my Homemade Monochrom has been much more useful to me than an actual Monochrom ever would… which leads me to my second point.
The way my homemade Monochrom depicted things made me want to photograph content that was dark. Like dead birds, funeral directors, towering churches, and weathered architectural details of old buildings. As another unrelated example to prove my point, take a disposable camera. It has a fixed focus, fixed aperture, fixed focal length, and a fixed shutter speed. The only controls you have are the flash — on or off — and the shutter button. These limitations mean you can only photograph certain subjects successfully. So, you could photograph landscapes on a sunny day, they would come out okay. Friends on a night out if you use the flash and keep them at a safe distance.
In summary, think about what you want to say using photography and then try and choose a camera that allows you to articulate this as clearly as possible. Or if that doesn’t work, try loving broken sensors.: Liam George Collins is a photographer and teacher living in Kendal, the gateway town to England’s beautiful Lake District.
