Film isn't that expensive if you do it right and develop yourself

agree. And so many movies were filmed in 16mm in the recent 90's and 2000's even 2010s, that's the real cinema for me.
Simon's one of the only people from a recent generation to upgrade their camera by going backwards.

The thing is most people would be willing to but it’s just so expensive. I’d love to shoot on film but it’s just not practical because SD cards can be re used, film can’t be.
Well, you took me down memory lane with this one, back to when I was a college student; in those days I dreamt a lot about shooting projects in film and felt pretty confident that I would do so sooner than later. 15+ years later, I haven't had that chance yet, but I feel glad you got your chance and shared your impressions about the experience with your audience. Kudos.
I had watched this video a year ago. I now shoot several rolls of 16mm film on my krasnogorsk 3 I own. I just love coming back to watch this video. It is so calming and a well-put-together video. Always Gives me a boost of motivation to continue to shoot 16mm.
Shot on film in school. Probably will never shoot on film again. I definitely wouldn’t mind shooting on an arriflex with colour neg once just for fun, but really I think shooting film is like going camping. Maybe it’s fun to visit every once in a while, and maybe you even love it, but there’s a reason we invented houses
Great video! I really like the way you broke down the basics of what practical steps would need to be taken to shoot on film. You could see how working with film would really make one improve their ability to make decisions and work on their preproduction for a better end result. Also, how much effort goes into somethings we take for granted, like getting your subject in focus. Really enjoyed this one!
shooting on film is great! I love the way it looks, the way it feels and the way you have to work with it. It's so different to digital shooting how focussed everybody on set is when the 'budget-counter' on the camera starts running.
Your voice is so smooth and everything you say feels just right and measured. I am truly going to mix your voice to make it my lullaby someday. More seriously, your content is so useful, I have never seen such clear and appeasing tutorials. Thanks a lot.
Always happy to hear your calm but passionate voice

listening to you is a very calming experience. thanks for the video!
Your channel is the best camera channel, please never quit KZread ♥️🍀🙏
I just love how you explain everything, you seem so engage in the video and the subject. Thank you so much and keep the great work
Such a cool video with a super relaxing vibe mate , really helped me get up and running with my Kransogorsk thanks for making and sharing 👌👌
I love the color of the film you used. I've been using film for my photography and that experience has been great. Please continue to share your knowledge with us!
your videos are just what i imagine classic vintage videos with modern touches would look like
Glad to see someone talking about shooting on film with a low budget! The K3 looks like a great starter camera, comparable to the Bolex. The dust in your frame is more likely buildup of film emulsion. As the film moves through the registration fine amounts of emulsion can be scraped off and accumulates in the gate. It appears you'd not be able to clean the gate without taking the film out, so that might be another 'quirk' of the K3. The Bolex has a similar 'quirk'. Also, chances are the K3 doesn't maintain a true 24fps because it doesn't have a crystal speed motor. Most wind-up 16mm cameras struggle maintaining true 24fps without a crystal motor.
Awesome video! Really happy seeing you shooting on (Super)16mm film and sharing your experience. Love your first time results, looking gorgeous! I look forward to your next projects shot on film!
I really like that you approach gear and film-making as an artist first, not as a technician first. This video, ostensibly about a camera, is a classic example.

I agree with you, I'm planning to shoot a short film in super 16 and everyone says the same thing, "Why it's more expensive, digital is easier, you can't delete footage, etc." What happened to the film-making as art? I know it's expensive but to me this short will be better with authentic film than using digital and trying to make it look like super 16

Totally agree with you. I love the rich analog color. I was lucky to see Dunkirk in 70mm not too long ago. Film is way better for movies but digital is good for certain things like news.
I really really enjoy your videos. Your style is amazing and somewhat comparable with Phillip Bloom in a way. I like your calm way of talking. No hyping, just facts, seasoned with a package of emotion and experience. Keep it up, I would love to see a lot more of your work!
I’m so in love with you. You are so knowledgeable and passionate with what you’re doing.
Thank you, combination of your narrative and music makes a remarkable vibe.
This is why i love you Mr.Dslrguide
Just FYI for the light meters. Old stills photographic light meters can be found for quite cheap. I have 3 of them from different eras, all work very well and costed me less than 20€ ;)
One of the best videos ever made on KZread

Have been in the same boat for ages thinking shooting film was out of my budget. After watching this it made me go hunting and I found a heap of K3's and similar bolex for about $400-500, still a bit out of my budget. But I kept searching and found a K3 for $50 (no lens) and the conversion kit to make it super 16 for $100. so for a super 16 camera for $150 I was pretty chuffed. I luckily didnt need the lens as I already own a heap of M42 mount lenses from my film SLR's so it worked out nicely! Thanks for opening my eyes about how affordable super 16mm can be!
Simon! Sending you 700,000 congrats on reaching 700,000 subs Keep up the fantastic work man!
Great tutorial. Im just starting to play with a new/old Bolex H16 Reflex and every tip is gold. Thanks
Simon Cade - makes obvious things sound abstract and deep.

Genuinely wouldn't have ever got into filmmaking if it wasn't for you, keep up the fantastic content Simon :)
Man your videos are so touching, that I wanna cry sometimes
Well, that is pretty cool. I like the most that you have to think and plan so much before actually filming. You don't end up with hours of footage you never need. Great way of shooting.
Im so confused. The film you used is super 16mm? the packaging says 16mm. Is it single or double perf? Thanks :)

yeah it's single perf so can be used with either 16mm or Super 16

Man, I love your videos. You are so inspiring, thank you so much!
Absolutely love this, wish I could master this look with my modern camera etc...
Dude ur voice is so calming, i fall asleep to ur videos no cap, keep it up😍
Decades ago, I shot home movies on Super 8 Sound Film. Kodachrome 40 was a spectacular film. My first camera was the entry-level Elmo. Later, I acquired a Bealieu silent camera, and the queen of them all, the Canon 1014 XLS.
I thought you did an outstanding job here! For many (35+?) years, I have wanted a Bolex Paillard 16mm camera. I couldn’t afford it then and “settled” for the Bolex Super 8, as I could not afford video then either, and wanted to get some action of my Sons growing up. The Bolex was Fantastic and almost intuitive and I almost regretted switching to vhs when it came down in price and I could afford it. For me, it has to be Bolex Paillard or not at all. I don’t work for them,!i guess they are still in business? But the motor is nearly silent and the controls do what they are supposed to do. Thank You again for a good guide video!
YESSS , KEEP MAKING VIDEOS LONGER IF POSSIBLE THEYRE SO GOOD
please release your music i don’t think you realize how great your music really is. very beautiful simplicity
I've been waiting sooo for this video! Awesome sauce!
Finally I've been waiting for this video
I love 16 mm film
10/10 perfect video, such a talent at editing as well. Such much better than film riot
Gosh, that is beautiful. I would love to possibly shoot my first film and 16 someday. It’s raw and organic look is gorgeous and even the film costs and processing it really can be around the same price as a certain DSLR, especially if you end up using less film than you think or need, or have a lower shooting ratio. I just love the color and saturation on film and really do think it looks better. I know that Tarantino was going to and would have had no problem shooting Reservoir Dogs on 16 no matter what, but that ended up not happening anyway.
Love the look of 16mm, just looks so real and warm. Have only shot 16mm on the Arri SR2 tho, but is VERY good fun Fun fact: The new Noah Baumbach movie 'The Meyerowitz Stories' was shot on 16mm :)
You could also "Blimp" the camera to record sound if you wanted. The K-3 could also be modified to run off an electric motor as well so you don't have to wind it up all the time.
I started in school shooting 16mm film, transferring it to S-VHS to then edit. For 16mm film to look really good and worth the effort you have to get a really high quality video tele-cine transfer that most of us can't afford. Instead, most processing labs offer a one-pass exposure transfer, which means the technician sees the first couple of minutes of your unprocessed film and from there he makes the rest of the exposure adjustments for the rest of your footage, not great. Shooting RAW video with my Canon 7D via the magic lantern hack comes really close to the quality of 16mm film, after all RAW video is just a bunch of RAW Super 35mm sized digital photographs strung together in a sequence. Not to mention you also get the benefits of shooting on a Super 35mm equivalent sensor (APS-C) for better bokeh, more light sensitivity, etc. Also, shooting RAW video is like shooting with analog film because of the large files you accumulate forces you to be conservatives with your shots because it is not easy viewing your unprocessed RAW video footage on set, so your forced to watch it later, like film dailies. At the same time, its not cost prohibited like 16mm or 35mm film so you can shoot extra to experiment.
Good morning, can you tell me some details about the year of your k-3 and expecially how did you achieve this HD-like look? Pls I want to buy this camera but I only find videos in which the k3 footages look too old
Love this mate. Great video
I watched your short film. Nice work
I also use a K-3 (normal 16 unless it is modified) with a Sekonic light meter like yours and results are great for such a cheap 16mm camera. I get much beautiful images from 3 minutes of film than from 1 hour of digital stuff.
Congrats on 700k subs man 🙌 on the way to 1mil
Winding between each take! Takes me back.
Why are his videos so soothing?
Incredibly talented sir. Keep it up.
Because of you sir i can become a good filmaker thanks for all the good effort you have done for us
i want to buy my first dslr im thinking about eos 800d is that a good choice? you cant find a t3i in sweden
I recently purchased this camera and I am looking for a case to transport it. I cannot seem to find the k3 case on its own anywhere. Wondering what case you would recommend I purchase for storing the body and lens
awesome that you're shooting on film.
wait I have never put tape on any film camera (still photo) aren't the cameras sealed the same way? There should be foam and rubber seals to block light? Or not with motion picture cameras? Thx!!
Hey Simon, did you use a 3/8" screw for th k3 or did you need another size? Thanks!
Can you please make a video on how to show different feelings with camera movement.
Props to this guy for giving film a shot... most people of today’s generation will never experience it. It does for sure have one thing going for it: a beautiful aesthetic. Most people (even the pros) have gotten over their egos though and realize it is just not worth the hassle 99% of the time.
Really curios about that lens that you used? What is it and how well do you think it can be adapted to Super35 mirorrless?
Congrats on 700.000 subs
Hey Simon, what was the format of the digital file that came back from Kodak? ProRes?
Idk if u mentioned this in the video I'm kinda stoned but after you develops the film how do you scan it digitally onto a computer???
Great Video man just about to Shoot on 16mm B&W for a Uni Project and this was really helpful :)
I’m curious, after seeing your videos on film, what’s your opinion on Vhs and vhs c cameras? Are these good alternatives for someone who wants to record on vintage equipment but can’t afford 8 and 16 mm film?
I like that Simon. It is a noisy camera but worth the effort.
do you know of any affordable 35mm film video cameras i can buy on eBay or other places. Ive had no luck in researching for something other than an arri or panaflex
Great overview! @4:50 you talk about widding the camera each take. Does that mean each time your stop shooting, and cover everything up. When’s it’s time to continue you will re crank the K3 back to the 30 mark?
Thanks for the video. Even though I probably won't film in the next couple of years I found this video very interesting.
Congrds on 700k ...soon he ll get million k wishes from all over world.... in this video...Ur eyes r so reddish broo... u have inspired me..n andyxx n esklid also....
like what you have connected to the phone to measure the light?
So fun! Loved it!
well done Finch! I wonder if using a rangefinder camera would work as a faster alternative for measuring the distances to the subject instead of the tape
Loved this one Simon. 👌🏻
Great video! Lovely music too
I like your presentation, keep it up Simon
Congratz on 700K mate 👐
Hi Simon, I'm intrigued to watch all your short films, where can I watch them?
*hey nice video can i ask what apps in smartphone do you use*
I was on the point to sell my Canon Scoopic with Anamorphic adapter and the huge Arriflex camera, but I might keep it for a while and start shooting film again. While shooting on a Apsc or 35mm digital camera with older lenses looks quite cinematic, the rolling shutter issue is quite annoying
amazing work , I also in the process of shooting with arritechno s35 camera tops keep on
Nice video! I've always wanted to try out a krasnogorsk and the Super 16 format. I've shot a couple short films with a Super 8mm Canon 310XL and a Bell and Howell Filmo 70, both great little cameras. The Filmo 70 def doesn't get enough love. It's a windup like the krasnogorsk but it comes with three lenses on a turret, which is super useful for change focal lengths on the fly. You don't get through the lens viewfinder, but otherwise a powerful little beast. I wish I could shoot more film but I'm a broke indie filmmaker and digital is way cheaper. One of these days...
Great video Simon, I want to ask, what is the cost of revealing a roll?
