A collection of cameras on display
Before cameras became omnipresent, and selfies became de rigeur, the experience of taking a photograph was a rare one. "You would not have had your photo taken every day. It was a moment of celebration, waited, and planned for," shares Manu Trivedi, co-owner, The Revolver Club. An avid photographer, Trivedi belongs the few who prefer the slow chore of analogue photography to the quick-fire digital options. This weekend, he will join others of his ilk at the newly minted The Revolver Photography Club.

"Analogue photography is more than just about the camera. It is about careful planning of each frame, understanding, and learning the process. This is an initiative to bring together people who share this passion," Trivedi reveals.

The club has collaborated with the city based The Panchrome Project, which offers analogue film stock, processing services, and darkroom processing for niche practitioners. The club will offer access to these artistic practices for the beginners, Trivedi points out. The first session will be helmed Trivedi alongside photographer Vishal Kullarwar.

"In the coming weeks, we will also host workshops about film handling, processing and developing. Of course, we will also offer them workshops on the nature of the analogue cameras and their handling," he adds.
