Omg LA is one of my absolute favourite places in the world and just watching this video made my heart warm haha especially all the palm tree pictures !! : )

Great video as always guys! 🙌

love this format of video - gives us an insight to your thought processes when taking photos ;-)

@NegativeFeedback definitely some of your best work! I was wondering any tips for focusing in portrait on the Mamiya 7, heard its pretty hard so any points, quick tips that you use would be great! Colours were insane, metering for shadows and overexposing is the one!

Gorgeous, gorgeous colours! Almost everything is more expensive in Ripoff Britain :)

all of your photos are something out of a dream, they're all incredible

Just found your channel! I'm currently living in Mauritius and brought my Olympus Mju with me. You really inspire me to actually take it with me and shoot with it, rather than having it sit in my backpack while shooting with my XPro...

Beautiful images. I recently tried film photography on my channel and I still have so much to learn. Digital photography spoiled me but I'm definitely willing to learn this. There's so much I don't know like push, pull, and proper underexposing or overexposing like what you did.

@NegativeFeedback

Thanks! Learning all of it is half the fun, there's still a bunch I know nothing about, the first thing i'd definitely recommend is overexposing some good colour film - even do some exposure tests yourself taking pictures of the same subject at different settings to figure out the look you most prefer and how to achieve it

Great pictures and a fantastic channel! Can you recommend where I can buy film inexpensively here in the UK? Simon

Hey man, nice photos. I specially like the shot at 2:29, the helicopter over the trees. I love how it has a gradient from the dark blue at the top to the light blue sky then to the pink horizon. Do you use Reddit by any chance? There's a sub-reddit, which is like a mini forum, called r/analog and its all about film photography. If you're not already on it, I think you should definitely give it a look. People there would love your work, I'm sure.

Hi! I've been into film photography for a year but i lost inspiration to shoot these past few months. That is until i found your channel! These videos are gold. You inspire me to shoot. Could you possibly do a video on how you set the exposure/aperture/shutter speed? ALSO how do you edit your photos? I love the clean, bright look they have. Thank you so much haha. :-) looking forward to watching more of your videos!!

Awesome!! I'll most likely do a video on the basics soon, but I didn't edit any of these photos, the bright clean look is all in how I exposed, them (Portra 400, 1 stop over exposed and meter for shadows)

This made me homesick

how did you overexpose on a contax T2?!? did you just use +1 exposure compensation?

Hey, I've been really interested in film photography for a while and I think I want to finally take the leap. I think I want to start shooting in medium format. Would you recommend this? If so, what cameras would you recommend? Or do you think it would be better to start with 35mm? I'm not even completely positive I've said this correctly, but I'd appreciate your suggestions. Thanks, man. Keep up the great work.

@NegativeFeedback

8 жыл бұрын

Hey! I'd say to start with 35mm to be honest, you have a lot more shots per roll, and it's cheaper so you'll probably have a much easier time getting used to it. No harm buying a 35mm for a few months and then selling to upgrade though! I'd recommend to get an olympus om10 to start off with, and a cheap medium format to try is the mamiya 645. it's also notable to say that buying the more expensive film makes a big difference, especially in exposure latitude, meaning the exposures are far more forgiving

lived in LA for 7 years, never liked Venice! Nice shots. I'll be checking out your channel.

So many good photos man. Im with you on the obsession to photograph American suburbs; I blame Stephen Shore's work haha Nice work.

travelling with film is fine, its only if you are subjecting your exposed film to xrays multiple times. x ray machines in the past used to be much stronger, and it was always a no no to travel with any film, exposed or not - it would fog it. now its not as issue, i travel with film all the time, never had any problems.

How did you managed to overexpose on the contax T2? Did you scratch DX codes? Thank you Beautiful pictures :)!

Hey man I love the video, great idea over exposing one stop looks great. I'm in the basement as well.

Fabulous shots and a very cool channel. Can I ask a bit of a noob question. You say you over exposed by a stop and then meter for the shadows. To over expose do you just shoot at 200 iso instead of the 400 box speed or do you adjust shutter speed and or aperture by a stop? Regards.

@Li0nsmane1

8 жыл бұрын

Yep just set the ISO setting on ur camera 1 stop 'slower', so if the film is advertised as ISO400 then shoot it at as ISO200. You can also set the exposure compensation dial on ur camera to +1 if your camera has one of those. There is so much exposure latitude in a good professional colour negative film like Portra 400 than you can overexpose by more than just one stop; I have seen picture that are 4 stops over that look great and have a specific look to them. A favourite technique of wedding photographers!

@themuddykip

8 жыл бұрын

+Li0nsmane can I ask a bigger noob question! Do you get the lab to develop it normally or do they have to know when you've over exposed? (Sorry if this is super silly haha)

@Li0nsmane1

8 жыл бұрын

Not silly at all! To keep it simple: in order to get that overexposed Portra look you should not ask your lab do anything different during the developing process. When you shoot a ISO 400 film as an ISO 200 you are overexposing (or technically speaking you are also 'pushing') it in the camera, so if you then tell your lab that you have overexposed your film they might try to counteract that by 'pulling' the film during the chemical developing process so you would be counteracting the pushing-overexposure you did in the camera which would defeat the purpose of getting that look you want. ALSO 'pulling' colour negative film in general is a bad idea as it ends up making murky and dull images, thats something thats normally only used for B&W film. If you want to learn a bit more about it Richard Photo Lab has posted good article on 'pushing' and 'pulling' a while back. BUT how a lab scans makes a huge difference to final image and this is the part of the process where you should make requests if you can (not all labs listen to your scanning preferences). Describe the kind of look you are after and perhaps show them some sample images and ask them to adjust their scanning accordingly.

How do you travel with film? Do you put it in your handcarry or have it checked in? I'm scared that the film will get exposed when passed through the x-rays.

@NegativeFeedback

Supposedly film with iso under 800 is fine being x-ray'd, I've never had a problem with that, but haven't travelled with high iso film. For this instance I just ordered the film to the address i was staying at so that I didn't have to worry. However I've travelled through 6 scanners with my film (portra 400) on a different trip and didn't notice any damage to the film. You can always ask for a hand check if you're worried

Should you ever come back, don't waste your time buying film through Amazon, Los Angeles isn't some backwater you can buy most any film you want at Freestyle photo in Hollywood or Sammy's camera in the Fairfax district.
