By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/the-photographer-shot-formula-1-on-a-century-old-camera.htmlAmong all the sports that require an instant reaction from photographers, Formula 1 is probably in the first place. This makes the work of photographer Joshua Paul even more intriguing, because instead of using modern technology, he shoots races with a 104-year-old Graflex 4×5 camera.
A 1913-made camera can take only 20 frames, while a modern camera shoots up to 20 frames per second. That is why it is so important to think about it first, and then make the cherished frame. Nowadays, such a process is very rare, and it speaks very well about the skill of the photographer.
Joshua Paul came up with the idea to shoot Formula 1 races with a century-old camera after he saw a 1969 magazine with photos of the annual Indianapolis 500 Mile race. The photographer of the past shot the event intentionally blurry and out of focus.
Trying to imitate the pictures of 1969, Joshua began shooting the Spanish Grand Prix for the first time in 2013. And he got so carried away with racing that he launched Lollipop magazine for enthusiasts of the Spanish Grand Prix.
