- by Jamey Price
When motorsport and automotive photographer Jamey Price first saw the NASCAR promotional film cameras from the 1990s show up on another photographer’s social media feed, he knew he had to have one. These cameras were never made to take outstanding photos. They were inexpensive, poorly made, and plastic. The winders break. The shutter stops working. They will just freeze in below zero temperatures. But they also capture magic.
From the IMSA races to the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Formula 1 races around the world to Monterey Car Week and Lamborghini events, Racing Unfiltered chronicles Price’s year-long journey to capture the highs, lows, and candid moments of motorsport racing, all through the lens of vintage film cameras.
