Brian was my farrier. A great man, always ready to help.

It seems that exposing more for the darks and shadows would help with underexposer on some of the shots.

I’ll be picking up my pro2 tomorrow and now I’m finishing all your videos about it. Thank you for your amazing work ☺️

freakin useless and boring, half of women stepped by would do same good pictures with their phone

it's 2024 and the x-pro2 is 8 years old still i went and changed the xt5 to it. why? well i got tired of the xt5 camera and when i got the xpro2 i fell in love with photography all over again. The xt5 felt like a "toy" compared to the xpro2

IS the X pro3 not better?

How do you get these photos digitally? May be a straight forward answer but I’ve been given some old lenses my dad used to use on the om10 and wouldn’t mind getting a cheap ish om10

lovely! where do you get your photos developed Matt?

Do you think is Konica better than the Fujifilm 270 for B&W photos ?

Great video, thanks for sharing this treasure

Background music fits this PERFECTLY!!

Just found this gem and really appreciate the nostalgic aspect. Got my OM 10 way back in the 1900’s when I got introduced to photography in 10th grade. Amazing photos!!!!! What were your aperture and shutter speed?

picture quality and character wise, which did you like better (i guess if you used both on digital). the ttartisan or the old canon 50mm

London is so over.

Im somewhat late to the game, but this is quality stuff.

1:30 - brah

450 when its going for well over 1,000 now is a STEAL haha

The average meteing system can be fooled if pointing the lens to a primarily light or dark areas. As your GT does not have exposure compensation you could still overcome this issue by altering the ASA dial to compensate a stop here and there. I set the camera to F11 and use hyperfocal distance accordingly.

So nice..

3:24 LOL

I love it

Very nice video

I have an Om10 with a 35 to 70 F4 Zuiko lens. A very useful and versatile film camera. I use my Nikon D40x digital camera with a 18 70 afs DX lens more because film and processing is so expensive.

nice video😍welcome to China again🥰

Really nice review! I would like to get the Olympus OM-10, what battery do you suggest I buy, I heard the original one is no longer available. Thanks, regards!

What aperture do you use on portra 800? I have a doubt with my sekonic light meter, it’s always indicating 22f in ISO800, and I think that aperture in a sunny day, will probably trash the photo 😅 I’m newbie 😼📸

Did you shoot on manual mode during the night?

What camera do you use to record this?

loved this

Lovely documentary. I worked for Brian as a teenager, clearing manure from the barn behind the forge. Always a pleasure to see him work. A fond memory is the 5 foot by 15 foot (ish) "wall of horseshoes" that was present outside the forge in the late 90s. I've got some of Brian's metalwork in the attic that he did for my Dad.

Although it was cloudy, most of your photos are under exposure. Try harder.

bro u just make me cry with those portrait!

these shots are so alives...

Hey Matt! Wondering if you read your comments still, but I read below that you said your camera doesn’t beep anymore, has that affected any of your photos at all? Just soured one that works beautifully, but just doesn’t beep at all… Shot a roll of film with it, and waiting on the scans! Crossing my fingers!

Contra the video introduction, this Minox isn't a spy camera and never will be. It is not made with the technical craft and precision of the real Minox spy cameras. In fact, it isn't really made by Minox, but by a German company historically making fairly cheap consumer cameras named Balda. The user sets the lens aperture, but the camera automatically sets the shutter speed, so the user has no practical control over the exposure. There were about a dozen model variations made over the years, and the early ones had some quality control problems, so stick to the late models if you dive in. Overall, it's a pretty good, self-contained pocket camera selling fairly cheaply, making you have to wonder why folks waste their money on relatively crappy alternatives like the whole line of Olympus XA cameras.

Enjoyed this video. What camera is on your chest? And how are you attaching it to your body?

OM systems cameras are magnificent. They strive for compactness and flexibility I love everything from my om10 to my micro 4/3 digitals.

Hi Matt. I'm loving the videos you make. You have that instinct of looking for what you think it might be interesting... even if its something similar you saw before. But you're not afraid to experiment. I've recently found my interest on film again and I just bought an Olympus M10 (before I found your channel). I'm literally waiting for it to arrive. Doing your own development is also something I found to sparkle the need to try everything and see what works. I've only used the HP5, but will give the Delta a chance as I see you can get that strong contrast also. Cheers and thanks for sharing! (a portuguese in Ireland)

Love the vid, would have liked to see it higher than 360p tho

Nice photos ! London is fun place to walk around and take photos.

how does the OVF work with mf lens? does it assist the focus in some ways or does it have the analogue-style rangefinder?

Andy Warhol used a Minox 35 with Tri-X 400 ( & Flash ) when he took the candid's of 70's celebrities in New York Club Studio 54 such as Robert De Niro & Cher

Ha! Meenox my arse. It's Min, as in Mini. Ir does rely on those replacement batteries - it can die quite quickly and unexpectedly. But when it works the results can be superb from that crackin' little lens.

Thanks for posting this….I’m an OM-10 fan…..got two of them…..love the music as well

I bought one at Value Village in Windsor Ontario for $49 and it came with a bag mint condition Olympus om10 camera with the adapter and the Flash and the original owners manual original strap that was on it

V good video thanks. In the same boat with a a 5d 😂

Thank you. I recently received one of these and unfortunately it has fungus in the lens

Nice video - I really love the shot at 4:14

Hi Matt. Great review. I just bought a barely used Minox 35 GTE, which takes modern batteries. On reliability, I came across a post from someone who'd got a tip from a guy who used to service Minox cameras. The most common problem with old Minoxes is shutter not firing. He said this is from lack of use, because although the shutter timing is electronic, it does have mechanical parts. To prevent shutter freezing the recommendation is to take out the batteries but leave the camera wound on, if it's not being used for a time. Hope some others come across this and keep as many of these unique, superb little cameras working for decades to come.
