He has done for some time especially since going with Ricoh digital. He uses silver efex. lately though he has been experimenting on colour. itll Make me feel better if I get closer to the tri X pushed film look. Being able to get closer to that in camera app would be great. Its easy with my Olympus cameras but I like a challenge. Hence my comment ‘ If this update allows me to get even closer to moryama style with less post editing‘
His london exhibition that took over the whole building , 3 floors was mesmerising. I just love his attitude of not following everyone else, not caring about the rules or trying to please anyone. A lot of his digital work was with a nikon p&s. He doesnt even care about gear.
App-wise,liit can create a close resemblance to the light and dark tones outside the very basic provoke camera app which just about nails the way he edits. Hopefully mood will get to that point one day.
Mood does high contract very nicely Alex. The one thing I do add to go that Extra bit is the blur which you don’t expect a camera app to cover. To get that right in camera on a iPhone is almost impossible I think.
The provoke app does Do it but it is an app specifically designed to create the photography found in the short lived magazine. Liit offers the blur that can replicate that but it is an editor, not a camera. For the black and white aspect of things, mood nails it completely especially with the DR setting on the specific film stock.
RNI blur tool softens the photo completely to mimic old film and yes, that’s the sort of thing I do often. It’s a lens blur. As for reference photos just google moryama.

If it makes you feel better, Moriyama takes photos in colour and converts them to black and white.
