I actually managed to shoot a roll of Paramat in less than a year. I did it in a span of 4 months, mostly in Antwerp, Belgium during the Christmas season.
I did, however, didn’t get ‘round to posting the photos ‘till now.
But according to my friend Myriam, it’s still ok to post holiday stuff throughout January, so here you go :).
The Agfa Paramat is a split frame camera (or half frame if you prefer that term), meaning it shoots two shots in one frame.
Now, scanning the film, the scanner sometimes gets super confused, resulting in some really fun results. At least I think so. I’m hoping to take Paramat to Disneyland Paris one day, in which case I will also get prints of the photos, just to be on the safe side, but for now, I’m happy to scan the film at home :).
The film I used for these is Kodak Gold 200, which I bought at Grobet in Antwerp.

With one additional Loa cat :).
Yeah I forgot to flip this one, oops!
And one photo of our next location:
Netevallei, Hallaar, Belgium
Yeah there's a whole bunch of Autumn photos here too. Basically I shot photos in October and December.
Heist-op-den-Berg, Belgium
One photo still counts! :)
As you can see, Paramat is, much like my other Agfa cameras, not very good with long range, even though it does have an infinity setting.
Generally anything past 5m tends to be pretty darn blurry, so I think that from now on I’ll make sure to stay within that range. But I do love it, it is my favourite 35mm camera, and definitely one of my faves full stop!
All photos taken with the Paramat are here.
