Photography: Jamie Stoker takes his new camera for a spin at Wimbledon

Date

Wimbledon might be long gone but we’re still really enjoying these impromptu shots of Centre Court and Court Number One from the excellent Jamie Stoker. Jamie bagged himself a choice piece of kit in early July, a Contax 645 with an 80mm F2 Zeiss Planar lens, and set about capturing a day at the world’s favourite tennis tournament with this legendary piece of hardware. Keen to acquaint himself with his new gear, he was lucky enough to have the opportunity to put it through its paces in an environment where both he and the camera would be tested. We think the results are pretty tasty and capture the spirit of Wimbledon is a wonderfully unfussy way.
