Hello Robin👋! Again, a lot of very nice pics🤩👍! My favorite is the lady at 5’40’’. Very nice combination of shadows and light. All in all I am really astonished how good this ISO 400 rated film looks when pushed to 1600. And again it’s amazing how close you can get to the people without any problem😅!

They were beautiful. If you don't mind what were the Aperture and Shutter speed did you use?

Great job with composition and finding frames that tell a story! Did you push to 1600 in order to get f11 as it looked like a warm summers day where iso 100 works well!

The last picture is interesting because it still has some information in the lights. were you able to recover the lights in post-production or were the images presented without post-production (directly from the scanning device and embedded in the video)? sorry for the many questions. thank you for the video.

I'm partial to the X-Pan videos because of the cinematic look that Robin is mastering the compositions within. Liked the inky blacks in this one and am wondering what a night shoot would might look like.

Of course, it's an option too. I push HP5 for instance mostly in the daytime.

4:42 👍🏻👍🏻 4:56 Good reflexes Well about combination X-Pan with anything is always good 🙂. The thing that I don’t understand is push to 1600 to shot in good daylight. I always have seen push as a recourse when the film nominal speed not match to available light. May be I’m too old because even in digital I refuse to use high ISOs until it’s absolutely necessary 😀.

I’m relatively new to shooting film so bear with me on this question: To push 400 speed film to 1600, do you just set the ASA dial to 1600? Or did you “push it” during developing?

I'm still confused when it comes to pushing film. Does pushing to 1600 mean to set the camera's ISO to 1600? Or is it solely done in development?

@@proletenschwein Yes, tell them to push the film +2 stops. They'll likely charge you and extra couple dollars, and I either write 1600 or +2 on the notes part of the film canister. Keep in mind though it won't make the camera see in the dark, you still need some light. Of course if you shot the roll at 800 you would have them 'push' process the film 1 stop. You could also have the lab 'pull' the film if you were to overexpose it by doing the opposite (-1, -2, etc.), however, generally people overexpose the stuff on purpose and process normally.

It gets really contrasty. Not really my cup of tea the way it reproduces skin tones that way. HP5 pushed at 1600 seems more suitable IMHO.
