At this point Jason is as much of a filmmaker, as photographer. Those videos are absolutely top notch lately!

Anthony the problem is you didn't shoot portra 400, I can send a box over to you but it is getting pretty pricey lately, tell ya what I'll cut you a deal (I'm taking a loss here) but I'll trade it for your Sony!

Jason: I got the eclipse on film Caleb: I got the eclipse on Super 8!
Me: How big a lens do you need? Jason: yes

Its funny seeing Jason use a telephoto lens. I figured he would have use a 35 and caught the eclipse behind a rotting house :)
shrugging at seeing one of your own pictures framed in the wild is a level of success that i strive for
Now instead of waiting for the accompanying Caleb video, I gotta wait for the accompanying David video on The Studio channel 😂
We talk alot about your work on camera but you're a great sound designer too! Makes the video experience even better. Love ur work man
Love the background ticking you added. Great choice
I really like the opening lobby pictures. The somewhat blown highlights lend themselves well to the overall decor and add that sort of dreamy feel to a very retro yet modern location
I really enjoyed this video from beginning to end. Consider this your Emmy episode.
24:59 the colours and shapes here are gorgeous!
I’M NOT CRYING YOU’RE CRYING
I am comment 25!!!!!!!!! I have arrived. Thank you, Universe. I am validated. 45 years of life, and I have made it. ... and yes... you definitely are a 50mm guy. Thank you for this. I'm 1% into editing 600 packshots I took's deep-etching and editing and this content is what I need to to live vicariously through other photographer's lives. Love and respect from Cape Town, South Africa. PS - Cape Town is a photo excursion that'll blow the roof of anything you've ever done. Just saying. And we have some serious craft whisky over in South Africa. So again... just saying. ... and amazing food and wine and gin and scenery like you've never seen... again, just saying.
Another awesome one Jason. The combo of Nikon film camera, 300mm lens and 2x teleconverter pointed at the sky took me back 20 years ago, sitting in the freezing cold trying to capture a lunar eclipse in my front yard with an FM and ancient Nikkor-H 300/4.5 my pop gave me. From memory, your pics were much better. Kudos.
Gave my finger pads a friction burn clicking on this at light speed (I’m justifying my F2 purchase)

In the for what it's worth dept., (not much), The scene where you photographed a dead tree in the flat countryside you said to the effect that this is what the whole State of Ohio looks Like. Actually there are five distinct regions in the state. The Great Lakes Plains, the Till Plains, The Appalachian Plateau, The Bluegrass Region and the Lake Erie Shoreline. Your tree shot probably was taken in the till region named because it's used tp cutivate crops. Ohio, in my opinion has a subtle beauty. The grandeur of the Rockies is several hundreds of miles to the west. Your glib comments alone make your channel worth viewing. I'm at least old enough to be your great grandfather. your meanderings with your friends takes me back to my twenties when we did similar things. Keep your videos coming.
Have to say this channel is one of my favorites. The humor, the vlog style, the photos. 👊
I am very fond of the woods around Falling water and the surrounding area. Those are my stomping grounds. I do a lot of hiking/camping/fishing in that area. I wasn't expecting to see western PA in a grainydays video.
Seeing videos like this is what makes me proud and happy about being a photographer, such amazing vibes and great overall community all around us
Super surreal seeing Lorain, Cascade Park, and my college town in a grainydays video! Loved seeing your take on each of them!
My girlfriend has that same exact cow sweater... But you rock it
Have watched a bunch of eclipse videos, this is the best by far. Your journey to the heartland which ended about two hours south of where i spent most of my life gave me a good dose of nostalgia. It is a thought provoking video that says get out there and shoot. Your keepers both going and coming need to be printed.
Your totality shot is truly massive. Dune feelings achieved.
I really enjoyed the watch ticking sound while everyone rushed to get the eclipse photo. Really set the suspense, great video!
This video is so good! The story, scenes, editing, all of it. Great work!
The second photo of the lighthouse is really good. I think the black and white works great. Makes it timeless.
I’ve been looking forward to you dropping the eclipse trip. I traveled with my sons to view the eclipse with my family and got some amazing pictures. But like you said, the trip was the best part. Thanks for sharing.
Loved this so much, Jason. Bravo.
Holy cow! That eclipse shot! Love the colors!
You know it's a good day if jason uploads
Always good to see some Bowling Green love.
The eclipse photos are great, but like you said, everyone has an eclipse photo. I appreciate seeing what led you to that moment. That’s what makes this stand out! Great video
I've been waiting for this video! Very enjoyable, thanks!!
Great video as usual, the effort behind this channel is insane. Best channel on KZread easily
Too funny. I love the camaraderie. Being around like-minded creatives is a lot of fun. There are some really great images. Thank you for sharing the adventure!
50mm was my first focal length on film and it's still the one I default to when just walking around. I think what draws me to it is that it doesn't distort anything. 35 is similar but 50 provides that extra bit of separation that helps things pop in my opinion

Started with a 35-80mm lens on a 1.6x crop body so you could say 58mm was the best i could get, now i use 50 1.8 and 35 1.8 the most. Or 85mm the goat
Great trip. Many keepers and lots of fun…
Thanks for sharing amazing stories and photos ❤
When using a solar filter, always place it as close to your front glass element. That's why you got those "globular" flares. Cool vid! Eclipse was sure amazing!
THAT JUMPER!!! ❤
this might be my new favourite video of yours, great job man

Hell yeah, K&M. The GOAT for film on a Saturday.
The ticking noise during the eclipse was a nice touch it took me a moment to notice it but it really adds to the feel of the "scene" it's obvious your background is in big budget films in things like this even if your specialty isn't audio design
Power over photography is power over all

25 years being a pro.....and NOW somebody tells me. Watch out, bitches, life is about to change.
your commentry always makes your videos classic 🤣❤
Thanks so much. I totally enjoyed this from every point of view. Especially feeling some kind of "sharing" for want of a better word. Re the 50mm... I have been shooting a lot on a Nikon FM2n recently with a 50mm, but I splashed out and bought the Voigtlander Nokton 58mm f1.4 ... what an incredible combination. Like you I am suprised with the results I am getting in situations that I never thought the focal length was the wisest choice for.
What a beautiful video, well done!
I've only ever experienced a total eclipse of the heart.
The niftiest of fifties! My personal favorite lens because of the depth of field you can get at 1.2
Immaculate vibes.
One of your best vids 👏
that teleconverter on the 300mm is insane, absolute respect jason
love the mini DVD footage
Wonderous, thank you.
Should have gone to northern Vermont!!! I got a beautiful sunny day, clear skies, and full totality for 3m15s from the comfort of my back yard.
This one was unusually melancholic. This or it's my cold getting to me
So sick!!
The portrait of your friends at 33:52 is beautiful. One of your best videos this mate.
It's unbelievably surreal to watch this video and see a place i lived and shot for years.
came for the fed up vibes, did not leave disappointed
definitely a portfolio video
I've had one of those Nikkor 50mm f1.2 for over a decade now. One of the champion lenses for sure.
Loved this video and loved your pics. Given me some inspiration as I'm recovering from open heart surgery.
I live near Falling Water and have taken pictures there many times. Really fun to see your perspective on it.
I ended up in Lima, Ohio, and it worked out great. Amazing to experience totality.
Wish I knew you were coming to Cleveland - you were close to my hometown! The mile long pier in Lorain where you shot the lighthouse is one of my favorite muses to capture when I need a break!
Great video!
Love the Nikon F series 🥲. You pulled out some beautiful shots man!
50mm suits you for sure, its my fav as well
loved his license plate -- 65x24. :)
Wonderful video!
Was at Fallingwater for a partial solar eclipse years ago - this brought back a lot of memories. Nice vid and cool shots ✌
50mm is awesome for portraits whether formal, environmental, or candid, fifty just looks right to me.
i rly liked those airport shots!
Yaaay Baxter's daddy uploaded a new video
smoothest ad transition of all time 🤣
F2T is crazy over here chilling w my F4s
50mm F1.2 is lovely.
babe wake up, a new grainy day video dropped
I think the slide shots in TWA on 50 mm were some of your best work. The colors look amazing as well, typical of slide film. I wish Fujifilm stopped discontinuing their color negative film so that we would have options that didn't look brown or gray like Kodak or other options.
It looked so good in widescreen
Nice video bro. Wishing I had more time to do photography. Keep it up man!
Omg had to wait until the very end to have my burning question answered.

Always watch the video backwards.
Very interesting experience and great photographic opportunity. I feel like there is some lost potential going for pictures of the sun itself when the light was so unique and everybody was taking the same picture. I would love to see some pictures of other subjects.
I liked so much your video, tks for share it ✌🏻
hell yeah. new 40 minute video.
11:04 that viewpoint looks cool at this time of year. The shot I have from this spot is an entire frame of green trees with the house in the middle. Middle of summer probably wasn't my best bet to visit!
50mm are great a must have
Superb
Awesome Jason!! Thank you for posting. Great production. I will confess that when Trev showed up, you being in Ohio, I. thought it was a Matt Day sighting.
Thanks!

Great trip and video, Jason. Screen time rankings Nikon F2, Jason, Birgitte, David, Everything else in that order. I would have flipped you and Birgitte, but your Number One is solid. This totally captures the essence of a photo road trip with friends, and your portfolio and keeper rates are strong. I saw totality when I was a young kid, but only got to 96% here in New Hampshire. Wish I'd made the two-hour drive west to totality but the weather was sketchy and the two-lane roads to get there looked like LA at rush hour. I'm glad I got to experience it vicariously through this video. Andy
So I watched Pete's video today and here I am. Popping my cherry by watching this, my first video of yours. I will circle back later...
24:08 i love the montage. very wes anderson :D
oh hell yeah
The U.S countryside is so pretty!
Ha, just sat down with a sammich. Toasted bread with butter, prosciutto cotto, buttercheese from Austria and brined asparagus in between. Thank you very much, very tactful.
