This New Years I volunteered to run the photo booth at a friend of mine's bar.
She had done up the place to be like a Chinese New Year, and encouraged her
regulars to dress appropriatly.
She provided me with a polaroid camera and a flood light. The flood light gave
us enough light that it was possible to take an OK picture. I knew
enough to set
up the light off to one side, but that was about all.
This gave me a much better apreciation of the auto mode on the OM2n.
I also took
some pictures with the T32 and OM2n setup, but these where of friends, and not
for general comsumption.
Hopefully next time I can convince her to go with some higher end
camera with a
poloroid back, and supporting flash setup.
If you're going higher end, and can maintain a vaguely protected space (this
sounds like a relatively nonviolent bar) digital sounds like it would be the
way to go for this application. (I know, I know, but think about
being able to hand people 8x10s of themselves in full regalia)
