Hello everyone! It's about time for a new video. A couple of days back I went to see a concert
and I thought it would be a cool idea to bring a film camera and make a video about it. I've shot many concerts in the past using a digital camera but this was the first proper attempt shooting on film. I shot Ilford HP5 and pushed it to 3200 which is something I haven't done before.
Hope you enjoy the episode, see you in the next video! :)

Been shooting shows for nearly 20 years, and using mostly film since 2009! Always go with HP5 anywhere from 800 to 3200!
Great! 😊
Something about shooting a hardcore band on b&w is such a vibe. You killed it
Agnostic Front! I'll be surprised if you didnt get any beer spilled on you that close to the band.
Haha, that usually doesn't happen in that venue. But there was someone drunk stage diving with a bottle of beer in his hands. 🤔
Awesome shots. Impeccable timing on many of them. Definitely inspired to try shooting film with no flash at a concert now and leaving the digital at home.
Damn, I didn't expect to see AF on the channel. Vinnie is one of the coolest persons in the scene.
Yes, absolutely! 🙏
I'm usually more inclined to shoot Tri-X, but man, the HP5 looks perfect for the feel of these shots, especially pushed. Great contrast, and again, great shots, man. A lot of energy captured.
Thank you very much Ted! Maybe give this combo a try for your portraiture work! ☺️
@@therealsirrobin Hey man, I might just do thanks. Have a great weekend!
The shot at 3:10 is what it's all about. Well done! I love shooting P3200 and HP5 at 3200 and pushing.
Thank you Chase!
Very cool, my old band played with Agnostic Front in Freiburg back in 1990 or '91 on their first Euro tour...
Your focusing skills are soooo amazing. Great video, as always!
Thank you very much!
I love Microphen. I use it to develop P3200, and to push Tri-X, Delta 400, and even a roll of Delta 100 at 250. My main developer is D76 at 1:1.
they're so iconic, and this photo done well!
Thank you!
Hey Robin, those are some good shot, man. Very cool.
Noisy pictures ... I love the final product. This band is pure 1980's punk music, super nice video
Thank you very much Nelson! 😊
Recently I've started film photography just as a hobby using a Nikon L135AF.. Little did I know that I'll end up being commissioned to take film pictures of small local bands and just today I've gotten a hold of a fujica st605. Thanks for atleast telling us what your settings were for that concert, this info will help me in the future.
Some great pictures,nice work. Keep going.
I've known these guys for almost 35 years. great shots.
Always a pleasure watching them play!
Agnostic front :) the stage presence of the band really makes for great photos :)
Absolutely! 👏
Agnostic Front und das auf Film... das ist doppelt Hardcore - geil Robin, richtig geil! ;)
Beste Grüße!
Danke dir Andy! 😊🤘
Really cool pictures. Very expressive. Grainy film really suits the subject. I didn’t consider you were a hardcore punk fan. 🤘
Thank you David! I grew up with punk and Hardcore music and I am still loving it. 😊
AGNOSTIC FRONT!!!! .. also, great shots!
Agnostic front! Definitely
Endlich mal gute Musik in einem Fotografievideo!
Verdammt geile Bilder! Perfekte Momente eingefangen. Gelingt mir nicht mal mit ner digitalen Kamera. Agnostic Front scheint aber auch ein erstklassiges Model zu sein 😁
Vielen Dank! Ja, AF sehen bestimmt auch bereits nach dem Aufstehen cool aus. 😅
Jaaa Agnostic Front ist doch immer wieder super! super Fotos!!
Danke dir! Ja, die sind immer sehr cool, hab die bestimmt schon 10x gesehen. 😂
Great photos! I never shot in a concert but I pushed (and pulled) my films in other street situation. Really I never used HP5 at 3200 iso, generally I used 1600 Iso but I’ll try... I have just a cuple of box of Microphen ;) thanks to show us your experience.
Thank you Domenico! Microphen is great but you have to handle it with care, not very healthy stuff. 😬
Looks like a good party - great shots :)
Thank you! Yes, it was good fun!
This is awesome
Superb video, impressive and interesting. Thank you Sir!
Thank you Christian!
Great photos and amazing how it looks good at 3200....and OMG! AF! Bad ass
Yeah man, came to say the same. Pretty incredible
Thank you Norman! 😊
cool that you show support man, great pictures...thank you for sharing :)
Thank you Doc! Hardcore is the music I grew up with, still loving it!
wow.. this is so awesome!
Thank you Sergey! ✌️
AF, the GOAT
Super reportage, noise doesn't play a role here, it even supports the atmosphere.
Danke dir! Ja, das ist absolut nebensächlich. 👍
I love pushing HP5 to 3200! Ive done it twice for concerts recently, this film has so much latitude to it. Thank you for taking this video Sir!
Thank you Mark! After seeing the good results, I am pretty sure this won't be the last time for me pushing HP5 this far. 👍
Awesome shots Robin, did not pick you for the type of person who would like this music. I had you down more as a rave person 🤪🤪
What's wrong with you Darryl? 😜🤣
Damn Robin did not know you liked metal or punk great photos as usual
Thank you! HC/Punk ftw! 🤘
Great stuff man. Hope you took your chance to sing along too 😉 most pictures look kinda sharp on my screen, maybe though next time you could experiment with flash - something I never did with rangefinder.
Thank you! Of course, it's not in the video but I can hear myself in the recording a couple of times. 🤣
I prefer not using a flash, it's kinda annoying when people use flash during a show. Have seen it too many times and it's totally fine without, even on film. 😁
@@therealsirrobin yeah I see. Wide lens and flash are hardcore cliche. Haven't seen anyone using rangefinder on hardcore gigs, maybe you could start a new trend
Really good shots man... shooting in those conditions is never easy. You anticipate the shot really well and that's important. I guess you knew the band before hand.. what was the aperture of the summicron 28mm? you should show these pics to the band ! I am sure they will appreciate them...
Thank you Gabriel! The Summicron is f2. I know this band pretty well and also the venue, so I knew what to expect. That always helps. 😊
Waw my favorite band agnostic front
Don't like the music but do like the pictures !!!!!!!!!!!! have a good end of the day and hello from France
Thank you very much Jerome! 😊👍
damn tony hawks pro skater vibes
Yeah! 🤘
What about Tri-x and pulling it to 3200 to? I've done that and I really liked the results. Do you notice any difference between those films? Tri-x and HP5 of course
Hai sir, i have point' and shoot camera.. prefer using flash or no ? At night
Heey, great video! Did I get that right, u used 1/60 and f1.8 throughout?
hi sir robin! i plan to shoot at concerts with my srt 101 with a 45mm f2 lens, do you think it will be good enough? also do i shoot the films at box speed or will i have to overexpose? thank you so much!
This would have almost justified 1/15 or 1/30. But hey, awesome video! The pictures basically unfolded themselves thanks to a playful band and an engaging crowd! Is it only me that thinks the photos actually look more lively and fun than the moments they have captured? They really look awesome!!! Very good job! Good choice of focal lengths too. Would you have done it with 35mm? I suppose you have to be able to previsualize the image before you even show up. Have you been in this location before so you could tell which focal lengths worked the best?
Thank you! 1/60 was really needed, otherwise lots of shots would have been to blurry. A 35mm lens would have been too long. I used to shoot a 24/1.4 in this venue and that felt just right.
Nice quiet night then.
Absolutely!
did you use flash for getting each shot?
Hey, this video inspired me to try and shoot a concert the same way as you did. I ordered microphen and a couple of rolls of hp5 to shoot it at 3200 iso. My question is if you remember what your dilution and times were or if you used the stock dilution :)
That's great. It's been a while and I can't really remember what dilution I used.
Haha what are the odds. Wanted to check out Analog Photography for concerts and also want to try it this friday at a concert... then i watch the video and notice its the same venue i want top try it out! :D Cafe Central, right? supoer cool.
Haha! Yeah, Café Central ftw. 👍👍
Demented Are Go, nice!!
Hey Robin! Question not related to this video. :) What kind of light stand are you using to hold up your dslr in the dslr scanning video? I know it is an old one. But dslr scanning rules. :)
I am currently using a copy stand from Kaiser which works perfectly.
New York Hardcore!
🤘
I have had real good results with hp5 pushed to 3200. HC-110 and ilfosol have been my only developers for these situations and I cannot tell the difference..
HC110 will produce more pronounced grain and contrast compared to Microphen.
Stigma is a such legend
He truly is! 🤘
Hey, how about developing the HP5 at 3200 in R09 One Shot? I know there are some better developers but I'm very familiar with the Rodinal and Fomapan or Ilford Pan 400 films. Results are satisfying for me and the Rodinal is cheap and has long expiry date after opening, had one open for a year :D (stored in the dark an closed ofcourse ;) ) I don't shoot very often so it is the best option to have the R09 for me. I have one opportunity to shoot at my friend's concert for the first time ever and I'm little afraid that photos will be too dark, so it is best to shoot at 3200 even if there is enough light? I have Nikon F90X so it's a good camera for events like this. Which films are good for 3200 push? If someone has some experience it would be great to share, I'm looking for advice, the more the better :D
is it possible to do the same using a point and shoot camera? the camera is yashica mf-2 super dx. the lens is 38mm f/3.8 and the shutter is 1/125 sec. there’s a built in flash but sometimes i don’t wanna use it. also these are some great shots
This will probably not work with a slow aperture like that.
I've pushed HP5+ to 25,600. The negatives came out looking solid. Have yet to scan.
Here are the dev times I've used: 120studio.com/film-dev/pushing-tri-x.htm#basic (yes, I did develop for more than 9 hours.)
This is with HC-110 dilution B, semi stand, development.
Yo first I catch you wearing a have heart shirt, the shooting agnostic front!!
Hehe. I also saw Have Heart just recently but didn't bring a camera. Sometimes it's better to enjoy the show instead. 🤘
first the Have Heart shirt and now a picture of Vinny Stigma from Agnostic Front??
Yes! Let's see what's next. 👏
NEW YORK HARDCORE!
🤘! And yes, it's absolutely OK not to drink! PMA
What was the shutter speed ?
3200
F2
1/…. ?
Thank you! Looks sick.
1/60th!
I like you even more now that I know you're into the punk scene
Hehe, thank you Thiago! Not really active anymore but I used to play in bands and went to shows all the time!
800 ASA pushed to 3200?
I need more like buttons for your channel!
Haha, thank you! 😁
"mosh pit photography"
Yeah, a new genre! 🤣
NYHC forever ☠️
Yeah! 🤘
STIGMA!!!!!
The most iconic guitar player in HC history!✌️
Ilford auf 1600 ASA gepusht funktioniert sehr gut. Hier habe ich allerdings die Mamiya 645 Pro TL verwendet. In der Regel nehme ich auch die 1/160tel oder 1/100tel, bei Schlagzeug kann es aber auch mal 1/50-1/80tel werden.
Wieder einmal geniale Fotos vom Sir Robin!

Danke dir Andy! Mit der Mamiya wäre es mit Sicherheit richtig schwer den Fokus zu treffen. Der Messsucher war hier doch recht gut, bis auf Bewegung aber das ist immer nicht so ganz einfach.
Ich hatte Konzerte bis dato immer digital fotografiert und war überrascht, wie gut es auch analog funktioniert hat - bin aber noch in der Lernphase was die Verwendung von Filmen angeht. Daher schaue ich mir Deine Beiträge immer sehr genau an. Großartige Arbeit! Auch die Idee mit den "'zines" ist prima. Ausgedruckt ist eben besser als Monitor.
Mmm...Taylor Swift wasn't available?
Taylor what? 🤣
