in short
Plane. - short for film plane - was started out of love for working with film, plain and simple.
We are making quality analog equipment available to professionals, photo students and enthusiasts interested in working on film. This way, you get to test a camera you’ve been lusting after before setting out to buy one, or you can shoot that one project or job with a high end film camera.
Plane provides film camera rental, processing, scanning and printing services.
Don’t feel comfortable shooting film yet? Reach out to us and we can teach you the basics of working with film so you know the essentials before you even load that first roll.
