I'm actually in a very portrait-picture-taking mood nowadays.
Maybe I should finish the whole roll just taking portraits of people ?
That would be fun !
Would be better if it was in B&W tho.

Agree! You should do that. I use to have this idea of taking people's portraits but by their profiles only and finish it in the same roll. But using Diana Mini to do that might not come out as interesting as sometimes I have a hard time to calculate whether what I see in the viewfinder really comes out on the pictures. So, I'm waiting for the perfect gear first. Someday I will.
But, you should do that, Amsyar. It will be pretty interesting. Very interesting actually. Moreover in B&W. So, you have my vote. :D

Hey, the Diana Mini is a great camera ! I think if you use a B&W film in it, and set it to square frame, it would take such great portraits. Cause the square frames makes things more dramatic. That's the one thing I envy from Diana Mini users. They get square frame pictures from a 35mm camera.
Yeah I think I'll do it ! But not on this roll. Its just an experimentation roll. Maybe when I get the hang of the camera. Thanks btw :D
I'm so bored of my Diana Mini currently. I kept on borrowing Lisya's gear to take off the boredness I had for her. But reading your comment about how Diana Mini is a great camera, I can't help but feel proud a 'lil bit on having her around. So, thank you. Hehe.
I kinda talk out of the track, aren't I? Anyway, currently I'm using York 100 and set the Diana Mini in square mode. This is my first time setting it in square frame on one roll. But yeah, next time I'll load it in B&W and see the result. Thanks for the great suggestion. Can't wait to get on it since I have no idea at the moment on what should I do next. :p
Yeah, take your time. Once you've got the hang on it. You'll conquer it. You'll do great and can't wait once you've done it. :D

Yeah, its normal for us to get bored. Some times its cause we arent happy with the results. but really, the Mini is capable of taking such great results. Go to one of my post on a person called Mephisto19. He just published an album using the Mini. And the shots are superb !
I've been meaning to try the York 100. I wanted to buy it from you guys but Lisya told me that you just ordered some films. So i thought I'd wait to see what there is. I simply love the square frame ! oh, and if you need ideas, then you should sign up on Lomography.com. They've got loads of tips and tricks you can apply on your Mini !
Haha thanks a bunch, Mira :D
Yeah, I've heard about Mephisto19 before. Lisya told me about him. I'll be sure to check him out. Thanks for that. That should help me in having new ideas to take pictures. :D
My roll on York 100 almost coming to an end. So, when I'm finish with it and had developed it. I'll show you the result of York 100. At least, you would know the sample pictures before buying 'em from us. And yeah, we're gonna restock soon as well. We're just waiting for the stock to arrive to us. :)
Hehe yeah square frame is the best. Since you gave me ideas on signing up on Lomography.com. I should have stopped flipping the Diana Mini sample pictures book by now. Hehe. Your suggestions should come in handy.
Thank you to you too. :D
