Student Photo Gallery
At Santa Monica College a photography student can take advantage of a program unique among 2-year colleges. Here we utilize Megavision S2 and S3 medium format digital capture backs with Mamiya 645 AFD cameras, Mamiya RZ 67 cameras, and Hasselblad 501C cameras. We use BetterLight and Phase One capture backs with Toyo 4x5 G2 view cameras. For 35mm format digital cameras, we have Canon D30’s. All three capture systems are used in studio and students can take the D30's off-site
for location assignments.
In the studio we employ Macintosh computers for digital capture. In Digipix, our digital imaging facility, we utilize the most current versions of Adobe CS3 Design Suite software that includes Photoshop, Illustrator, and Dreamweaver. Supporting digital instruction in our service bureau are high-end Imacon film and Epson flatbed scanners, a Fujix PG3000 output device and Epson printers up to 24” wide, all color-managed and available for student use.
We also boast some of the finest darkroom facilities of any college or university, continuing to offer the best in quality black-and-white and color printing, not to mention new digital enlargers for output of Photoshop files to traditional wet media and a robust program in historical chemical processes.
