A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

I recently bought a film camera and I was wondering how computers screens and CRT TVs look like on film. Has anyone here ever tried ? If yes, does it look good or is it the total opposite ? If you got any photos to demonstrate that would be great !

I did a test for this exact thing a few weeks ago: CRT exposure test

My set up was:

Commodore 64 CRT display
HDMI to RCA adapter to get still images on screen
6x9 view camera with 135/5.6 lens
Portra 160, 8s @ f16.

Much more controlled than just taking a photo of an old TV that happens to be on, but might still be of interest.
