this is literally the only good review on this camera on YT that shows it needs to be used in bright light and with 800 film. brilliantly done thankyou

I just went out on my balcony with my Sekonic L-758 light meter and checkt the exposure under very cloudy light because: Exposure should be fine under the sunny 16 rule with an aperture of f9, a 120th of a second shutter and 400 speed film. And it is. I’m getting a 125th of a second shutter speed at f9 at 400 ASA. So I think the conditions that she was shooting under were a really cloudy. You should also make sure that you’re not shooting expired film because that looses its speed over time. The other thing is expectations. Pretty much all 400 speed films can handle underexposure by one stop fine and will give still usable but moody looking images.

This is odd I used gold 200 and ultramax 400 no issues. FYI you can switch to a more open aperture by enabling the flash. Take out the battery if you don’t want the flash to go off. I think it’s F7 flash on and F9 flash off. It just won’t focus to infinity tho.

I really appreciate that this review acknowledged the user error at the start rather than just saying "Oh it's a bad camera". This is a great video and both sets of photos are honestly incredible, but going through the "proper" way of shooting it and showing what's possible was so valuable. Thanks for taking the time to do it right!

Seriously SO excited about receiving this camera, I love that it’s plasticky cause it’s light as a feather. Plus it looks cool. And the quality is so good!

Those are solid photos! I love cheap little cameras like this. No fiddling with lenses and gear - just take pictures.

Been thinking of getting one when I saw this one on your website, and I’ve been waiting for this review. Thank you Taylor 🙏🏻

@@ericlecreateur then they should get a Canon SureShot 85zoom film camera instead. It's even cheaper but it's better. The Ilford is a pass

I love the idea of Ilford making cameras. One with a few more bells and whistles would be nice for myself.

The photos of the OR coast put a huge smile on my face. It’s my number one happy place ♥️

Those coastal landscapes looked beautiful. The still shots and the video.

I grabbed one of these today. I've got some recently expired Kodak T-Max 400 in it. I'll definitely aim for bright days which shouldn't be an issue considering Australia is in Summer currently. Love your photos, especially of Goonies beach! Being a kid in the 80's, that was one of my favourite movies. When friends ask me why I went back to film, I say because looking at a film shot reminds me more of what I see in my memory when I am remembering something. It isn't a perfectly clear shot in my memory, but something like a burnt in real image that will never leave (plus I missed film after growing up since the late 1970's and my first foray in to photography in the late 1980's was obviously film).

i was just looking at this one in the store , i didn't buy it but after seeing this i really have made up my mind to just go for it ! thank you for this great video very much appreciated

And before you discount a toy camera folks check out what Nancy Rexroth did with her plastic Diana camera in Iowa back in the 1970's. Tremendous photos! Anyway, thank you Miss Moment for the video! It's great to see this UK 1879 company still in the game after a hundred-and-forty years of making film. Oh - and like the beach pics!

I have just pre-ordered one. Thank you so much for the review!

I usually just buy disposable cameras but wanted to find a cheap 35mm camera I can just reload with film instead. Putting this in my cart :)

Wow, absolutely loved this video and the photos you took were incredible!!!

Thanks for sharing this video. After 50 years of shooting film, and having way too many pro cameras expensive film cameras in my closet, collecting dust, I bought a point and shoot a couple of weeks ago. I did the same thing. I went out and shot a roll; and had so much fun pointing and shooting, and not really thinking about anything except composition. I'm thinking about shooting 1600 instead of even 800, two more stops will get me in a realm of reality at somewhere between f4 and f5.6, theoretically. Please stay well. By the way you're a great photographer. This proves that it's more about the person behind the camera than the camera. Right? ;-=)}

@@sophierobinson9082 yes, you can use basically any brand as long as it’s 35mm. The difference between types like 200, 400, 800 all just affect how the pictures come out by essentially adjusting the exposure in a way

Thank you for sharing, it's helpful to make peoples more clear to choose 35mm film camera.

Beautiful photos! I just ordered one of these and can't wait to shoot with it.

Definitely down to see Taylor continue to be the film photography guru for Moment from now on. I could watch film videos forever.

3:42 I forgot what I was watching and enjoyed this little clip waaay more than I should have haha I need more of these please!

I live in Portland too!! This motivates me to shoot film because it’s always cloudy over here

I love this review, is a great video and the music is perfect! I know deeply this camera and your review talk about it in a great way!

This was such a cool video, it’s made me buy one and I loved the music and your photos!

I was here for camera but stayed cause I like how you filmed this video it’s so nice and relaxing

I may have to look into getting one of these to use when I don't feel like/comfortable with grabbing my 1981 Nikon F3 and lenses. Pocketable film fun.

Back in the day, one of my favourite things to do was to push Ilford a stop to make it more moody and grainy.

thank you so much, this was a great video!! im ordering it rn!

Loved this - thanks for sharing!

Im gonna buy it after watching this video. Thanks for showing photos taking with it

Took up film for the look and to slow down and think of my shot more...now I may want to slow down even more and just go fullsend into not worrying too much. Just to..be there. In the ~moment~ if you will.

Ordered mine last night! Can’t wait!

Thanks for a good explaination of this camera. I wanted to use it as a pocket camera to carry around for those unexpected shots. I see that it will be perfect for just that. In south TX it is hot and sunny most of the time so it will be perfect. I love overcast days for shots and we get very few of those even in winter. Again Thanks, I will be getting one of these to carry in the backpack just as a back-up.

Yes! Beanie is back, every season is beanie season lol! another great video Taylor!

This actually looks almost exactly like the Kodak Ultra F9, which I know is being manufactured by a third party. There's also a Kodak m35 and m38 (previous 'models' in the same line), and they seem to perform very similarly. I'm curious if its the same manufacturer.

Just picked one up from blue moon camera on a trip to Portland 😎🔥🤘🏼 stoked to give it a try

For me this is the best review on this camera, love it. I have a question that how to scan film from camera to PC like ur video?

Amazing review... Thank you

I received mine today, one question does it have a satisfying click when you click the shutter? Because mine doesn't and I'm not sure if it is taking a photo or not :)

Can you also make a video on how to process these at home and editing?

Do you guys happen to have a tutorial video of this camera? Such as loading the film and unwinding it? Just got mine in the mail and I’m a total noob. 🥲

Outstanding job on this review.

Why am I so late at commenting, maybe because I'm old😁. Great review and absolutely amazing images. I hope my daughter will be interested in starting film and enjoy it as much as I do. It seems the only thing you need to know is how light it is when you shoot.

I shoot a lot of antique cameras, Kodak box cameras, Kodak tourist and such. It is fun to try and get good images in spite of the limitations of your equipment. I love the Christmas feel of anticipation waiting to see if I get a great present of a good image or a lump of coal in my stocking. I shoot digital for money but film is for fun.

I’ll look for that to use on the streets here in Portland.

Its wonderful to see all that young people getting into film photography :)

Even the camera itself looks good!

Sold! ordered one right after this video.

Hey, I know nothing about photography but I do really like the darker aesthetic of the lower speed film. It this purely caused by starving the sensor of light?

Just had a thought, do you have access to a box camera using 120 film? A comparison might make a good video.

There are also cheaper plasticy Trip models, I have the trip 500? With a 28mm lens that is pretty fun. It has a few different shutter speeds so it can be used in cloudy weather and it cost me a tenner in mint condition a decade ago. Could very well be much more now, but there are so many models, should be possible to find a cheap camera unless the market in your specific region is just a little out of wack bc of the current analog hype. With some film prices soaring up camera prices could go down, I for one don't expect to ever shoot film again at the current prices...
