Surprise at 100k 😏
I'm from the sleep walk cover 🖤
can't wait
Still need your camera fixed? Lmk! I will send the contact info
Also "Fast" and "Slow" refers to shutter speeds! So slower films will generally meter with slower shutter speeds because it needs more light. And Faster films will meter with faster shutter speeds because higher iso films need less light!
What is the disadvantage of fast and slow film?
in easy words, 25-200iso = SUN, 400ISO = cloud, sun.. sunset, 800+iso = dude, enjoy your night have fun :D
Very helpful, thank you. I'm getting into film photography and to get some knowledge I've been watching your videos, they're great help and entertaining. Keep up!!
JAMMED SHUTTER FIX FOR BESSA R2A & R3A
(For when your R3A's shutter jams (usually at the end of a roll):
1. rewind and remove the roll
2. close the film back
3. turn the dial to a manual shutter speed (taking it out of auto)
4. complete the wind and trigger the shutter.
Note: if you leave the dial in "auto," the shutter and lever remain jammed. Ha ha. The Zeiss Ikon has the same Copal shutter.
This was crazy helpful for just starting out and wildly comprehensive.
Confession, I watched this twice & I should've taken notes! Used my porta 160 indoors with my digital mindset - "oh it'll be fine, just push the iSO to 800! (could have been more, don't remember). I just got the scans back and now it all makes sense. High grain, sorta expired film glow. Def won't throw the scan away - but it was a good user experience seeing how far the iso films can go. Thanks for the edu.
Ohok so to summarize if you have lower Numbers your Speed should be lower as well?
Great video man!! Once I figure out how I want to scan negatives, I’m going to buy some more film so I always have a roll with me
I really appreciate your videos they are so informative and well executed thank you so much for breaking this all down, I just brought my first ever film camera and I have no idea what I’m doing
Exactly the information I was looking for! Thank you!
Finding your channel was really a blessing. Ty for all the help!
Nice video! Film speeds can be confusing for a lot of people, and when I started film photography a few year ago I had NO CLUE. :0
I find your videos so incredibly helpful!
Wish 1600 native speed film still exists! I love shooting it when I had the chance to. Guess I’ll just push 800 from now on lol
Or you can pull Kodak P3200 or Ilford 3200 down to 1600 - that’s what I do. Using a fine grain developer like X-tol minimizes the grain of 3200 film a lot. When I tried Rodinol on these films, the results were course and unbearable.
I also loved to shoot with them.
Appreciate your time and the information, bro! Subbed! Thanks again!
Very informative! I learned a lot thru your videos.
i have learned more from your youtube videos than the several film photog classes i took in college, ty
This vide was very informative. It cleared up a lot about film speeds.
You explain everything so extremely well! Thank you!
I’ve really needed this video tysm!
I got you 👌
jus got my first camera with a canon t70, and I'm super lost with how to choose iso, overture etc haha, I get the mechanic part and how it works, but putting it together, with the ISO on the film and on camera, pushing films or not, a little bit confusing at first ! so THANK YOU for your video, very clear and helpfu, probably will save me a lot of poses on my films !
Super helpful! Nice one bro
Dude. Youre killing it!!!!
Thank you very much for the helpful tips!
Great vid man!!📷
Great explanation, thanks for this!
I hope in the future, u’ll do review or recommendations of film cameras and iso(s) sample photos so that we can see what they look like and the amount of grain we want in our photos. And also how it works. ❤️ thank you tho!! I really appreciate it. I want to get into the film photography industry and idk nothing but now ik atleast information about film iso (s) . !! & which to use depending on the light sensitivity
Hands down the best channel about film photography on TH-cam
Take a shot every time he says ISO 😂
I’ll take a shot when he pronounces it correctly. Love the channel but it still bugs me.
Are you trying to get us all killed?
Excellent once again, I would love a video where you shoot cinestill 800t at night.
Hey thanks for the great advice!
Where did you get your grip for the bessa?
Can’t wait for 100K
Everything film is yours Jonathan, thanks for making the video.
This video was made with nothing but perfection. 👌🏽
Thanks King!
Great explanation! If my camera's light meter doesn't work anymore, do I still have to set the ISO
dial in the camera?
Literally thank you.
Gonna try my first roll with ISO 100, the days will be sunny and hope it will be fast enough for the most part. Gonna choose 400 probably next time
hi :) thank you for this video, you explained it so well !
I was wondering what iso would be better if I wanted to take photos during a concert ?
Since it's indoors but there is quite some light I'm a little confused
Hopefully you'll get hands on the Canon P/L1 rangefinder, also hopefully you'll do more Lomochrome Metropolis shoots.
How about cameras with adjustable ISO (like Konica C35EF)? Do I have to match it with the film or are there conditions I have to take note?
Great video! How about the flash on at night? Which would would be best?
thank uuu !!
Great video. Great advise. So 400 is the go-to speed if you're starting out.
Doesnt have a very good quality. A bit grainy.
I started out with 200 and I've never tried anything else. I'm quite happy with Fujicolor C200 and Kodak ColorPlus 200, not too grainy and sharp.
I've been shooting digital photography for a good while now, but recently after seeing various accounts on Instagram who focus on Film Photography, I've been intrigued ever since. I'm currently looking into buying my first Film Camera, however, a question I have for using different films rolls is, should I generally aim to shoot at the iso that is on the film roll?
yess that is recommended, especially if you’re just starting out
No luck with Matt at Glasskey Photo in SF? They did wonders on my 1960 Yashica M. Worth shooting them an email!
I dont know how much it helps, but I have a great camera repair shop near me, photo center in brick NJ. Theyre currently repairing my nikon FE2. Prices are reasonable to great. Other side of the continent from you though.
Do you still need to use flash with 800?
I have Konica s2 and the meter is not working. What film, ISO you can recommend? And what setting I should set it to if I use it during night?
is it alright for me to use a higher iso film than my cameras own max iso settings. i’ve got a canon af35m with 400 being highest on the dial
During the day or bright lit rooms I like to shoot at ISO 80 or 100, Nighttime I shoot at 3200 or do a Long term exposure.
So if I have a 800 film stock, so I adjust the camera setting to 800 or can I adjust it lower or higher ?
Thank you for your video!! I just developed my first set of film i did the Fuji film 400 ISO & my camera was set at 400 but it still came out blurry n over exposed. I have the canon af35m i got it on eBay condition is good but im unsure if it rly works bc of the film that was developed.. also had a bit of trouble rewinding the film so maybe thats why😭 can you put in 400iso. Film n set it to 200iso or no?
Waiting for a 'how to do double exposures' video (^^)
^^^
Hey Bro,
Always enjoy your stuff and I just hope you're safe. I don't always comment. I'll try and Do better bc I know it helps the channel exposure . My lady and I have heard about the wildfires. Are you ok ?
very interesting, thanks! So 200 would be good for taking pics in general travelling situations such as sightseeing or inside museums? Or is it better to use 400 anyway? thanks!
200 will be fine for the most part if you have a fast lens and is generally more affordable
Inside a museum, I would use 800 iso by you probably could get away with 400 if you can hold the camera steady with a slow shutter speed. If you are doing general traveling, I would use 400 iso since 400 is an all in one film type
I've still got one roll of Fuji Superia 1600 and one Fuji Superia Venus 800 to shoot in the near future
So, for point-and-shoot type cameras, is it better to use large ISO film?
Question. When shooting ISO 400 are you still able to set your iso to something lower like 100/200? Or with film photography do you need to have the iso set on what the film iso is?
you have to stick to what it says on the box haha
Just a beginner here but I'll mention vintage cameras and shutter speed. I got a Pentax Spotmatic (1960s) a couple months ago. I'm not sure what more modern 35mm cameras max shutter speed is but the Spotmatic is 1/1000 second. I haven't tried an ISO400 film yet, but imagine that on a bright day ISO400 might actually be too sensitive ideally warranting a faster than 1/1000 shutter speed. Any thoughts? Then again, maybe I'm just used to leaning towards wider apertures. Smaller apertures like above f11 probably take care of this and bring down shutter speed quite a bit.
Hye may I ask you something. Have you try yashica mf2 super / dx before?
Very informative. I was wondering since you mentioned that there are no film stocks with native iso greater than 800, how do you shoot p3200 or tmax 3200? Should you meter at 3200 and push 3 stops? Or just meter at 3200 and develop as it is? Thanks
You need to push +2 TMax 3200 to get it to 3200. It's native around 800-1000 without pushing but developed to be pushed without big loss of detail. In that case Delta 3200 just needs push +1 in my experience. This film is native at a little less than 1600 from what I've read and can confirm from my experience...
Gutti thanks for your input! Was considering to try out these extreme iso films but too scared go mess them up!
Hi! Love this video, thank you for the explanation!
I ran into some issues with my Pentax ES and a 200ISO film. What happens is that when I'm in relatively low light, and I set the shutter speed to automatic, even at aperture F11 the shutter speed goes up to 1000+ (the maxiunum on my camera). Any ideas why this is happening?
thanks! :)
Ey man, got any luck with this...?
Hey, I've recently completed my photography coursework. From my findings, I would use the 800 films as they're great for night photography. I've used Kodak 400 ultramax and some black and 400 films on an automatic film camera. They didn't come out very good as there was constant ghosting, bad exposures and blurs.
After my transition to a manual film camera. I've used the Portra 800 films (prices werent too high earlier this year in the UK compared to the current trend and prices). They have displayed nice exposures, colour definition and nice detail (I try to aim for a 1/125 shutter speed).
If you ask your developer not to edit the image, the film gives the image a heavy dose of yellow saturation within the image after using HDR Toning. Don't worry, this can be easy fixed and the yellow saturation being removed in the camera raw filter (Photoshop). I will be posting parts of my film photography coursework after Aug/2022 on instagram @Chen_On_Earth if you are intrested in seeing them. Good Luck : )
Feel bad about the R2A. I have my R2A too but I hope it does not fail me anytime soon!
Does this concept still suitable for point and shoot camera?
Shame about Bessa. Loved mine. Same thing happened to the shutter of the Voigtländer. Everyone I talked to didn't want to work on them and I had to sell it.
I was using 400 ISO then I finished the the roll of film and put in a film of 200ISO but I forgot to change the dial on the camera. Is there any way I can save the exposures. Through the developing process?
There is.
Don't panic. All you did here was "push" the 200 iso film to 400. If you have not finished the roll yet don't change anything. Just finish it as if it were a normal roll of 400 iso. If you are using a commercial lab to process your film just let them know when you drop it off that it was pushed to 400. Pushing film is something that is done quite often and the lab will know how to process it properly.
If you are developing it yourself there are tables you can Google search to give you the adjustments you will need to make to get the best results.
Hope that helps.
When in doubt, shoot HP5. :P
This was so helpful thank you! Anyone in the UK know a trusted website or shop to buy film cameras? I've bought 3 online now that all claim to be working and are faulty and the last one is refusing to give me a refund!
West Yorkshire Cameras wycameras.com, ffordes.com, used both of these without any problems.
A video with visuals would be helpful 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Maybe a silly question.... but that Voightlander doesn't have a mirror lock-up on it does it??? If it does, is maybe just in Mirror lock-up?
The Bessa is a rangefinder and has no mirror to lock up, I think the shutter mechanism is just jammed
If I have a 400 or 800 iso film, when should i use the flash?
Did you figure this out, I’m wondering the same thing
Check out if the battery is dead...
Had a minolta x370 do the same and was due to a dead capacitor
PPP Repairs in the UK can help you. Stay safe J !
Can it be that the battery just needs replacing?
What hair cut do you have
Hey man. Coming from digital, I’m used to underexposing like a mad man (sometimes I’ll just leave my ISO at 100, set my aperture to get the DoF that I want and adjust shutter speed as needed). Because I want to get in to shooting film: do ISO values for "correct" exposure in my digital camera translate to the same ISO values in film? In other words: if I pay more attention to exposing correctly with my digital camera, will that tell me which film speeds would work for the type of shooting that I do?
yeah i think so, but keep in mind your better off overexposing with film
@@vr4737 Yeah, I’ll have to be a lot more careful when shooting film =)
Nice! Can you post a business or person that can fix broken cameras?
Been told that Voigtlanders are a b----- to repair bc it's hard to find a person who can repair them. I'm sure if you make some calls around where you live, you can find someone to repair your camera. Nice video btw. Keep it up!
🙃🙃 definitely been tough trying to find repair service!
The Voigtländer website itself points to their distributor www.cameraquest.com for repairs in the US (west coast), that 1996-looking site also has repair info etc. and says they're specialised on Japan-made Voigtländer rangefinders. Click on the "classic camera repairs" link.
Whoo!
🐐
Hey buddy, still need that camera fixed?
Cameraquest does voigtlander repairs.
So I wouldn’t be able to use 100-200 ISO even with flash?
So if you want to shoot fast moving objects, like sports for example and it’s a very bright sunny day, would you go for a high ISO in order to shoot at a fast shutter speed like 1/1000?
That’s one way to go about it! Keeping you film ISO high forces you to have faster shutter speeds even when you stop down! 1/250 minimum to freeze action!
I hope you've changed the battery in that chirping detector...... I've heard it in 4 videos now and it is driving me INSANE.
Damn, i thought here will be covered the topic of real ISOs of different film stocks 😂
Since you’re in the Bay Area, try International Camera Technicians in Mountain View. I take all my film cameras there for repair and maintenance
It’s an older man but he knows his craft
The only stocks I have see at my local walmart is 200 and 400. I remember the 800 decades ago. I think I never seen 1600 or above. Its more like a specialty film roll.
I can only find Fuji 400 at CVS and Walmart and similar places. Luckily I have a couple different camera shops locally that stock film. One I go to for Portra and Cinestill, more expensive or harder to find film stocks. And the other for cheaper like ilford hp5 and Kodak gold
Nobody explains, what's the difference between a picure taken with 100 film and one with 400 film suposing their exposures are both correct??? Except the grain.
Somebody knows the answer?
Sir, in Angeles City.
Amsterdam camera repairs. But that's here in Amsterdam 😁
Seawood Photo in San Rafael does film camera repairs. I'd give them a call to see if they could handle your camera
"The higher the ISO the more grain you are going to have...." That is not always true. Generally higher higher ISO films have more grain. However sometimes two different film speed from the same company can have the same grain size but the resolving power of the slower film will be greater. I have portraits I shot in the 90's on 25 ASA film. I can see one strand of hair standing up on 4 by 6 prints. Back in the 90's Kodak Royal Gold 25 and Royal Gold 100 had the same size grain but the resolving power of the Royal 25 is higher.
Slippers in the house. True Filipino.
this is with filmstock ISO.s that arent expired...
looool try iso 1.6
