Harman Phoenix - Test Roll 2 - Film Photography With A Lensbaby

Having enjoyed the bold and punchy look of my first roll of Harman Phoenix, I wanted to try something a bit more adventurous to embrace all that colour and contrast. So I attached my Lensbaby 3G to my Nikon F-501 and headed out to try and capture some of those magical Lensbaby images. As with the first roll of Harman Phoenix, I overexposed the film, shooting at 125 ISO instead of the box speed of 200 ISO.
You can see my previous video looking at Harman Phoenix here:

The Lensbaby 3G was the third generation of Lensbaby, still essentially a lens mounted on a bit of flexible pipe, but with the addition of some locking rods so you could hold your focus and bend while using the lens on a tripod. I think Lensbaby revisited the general design of the 3G when they introduced the Control Freak a few years later - I think the Control Freak uses the optic swap system lenses, as found in the Lensbaby Composer, but from what I can see, even the Control Freak has been dropped now.

I also did a video a few years ago looking at Lensbaby lenses - it might not be quite so well put together, and the voiceover might be terrible, but the link is below!!!

That is quite an odd lense. Interesting.

Yeah it's a quirky little beast Ben, but very good all the same.

Your previous lensbaby was the first video of you that I ever watched I think. This one also has some great results with that Phoenix film

Cheers ohjajohh, I think my videos back then were even clunkier than they are these days - still haven't perfected the art of speaking!!!! I'm really enjoying using the Phoenix film, it's not perfect but I kind of like how it looks - it's a bit like when someone first gets hold of photoshop and tweaks all the sliders to get a really contrasty image.
