Love a camera with a proper shutter sound and especially one you can feel, it just adds to the tactile nature of shooting film that I don't understand from people who lust after Leicas or Mamiya 6/7 with their whimpy little leaf shutter. Beautiful camera and great portraits as usual. ✌🏽
Love the nice shutters from Pentax and Hasselblad, they are so tactile - although for candid stuff I love the quiet Leica shutters. Different use cases for different cameras :)
Its not really the leaf shutter thats the problem just the lack of a mirror. I mean the RZ67 is a leaf shutter but the mirror slap is so loud its amazing.
Sam, I have to say this truly one of your best videos. I just love your vision and how capture people with such empathy and genuine curiosity. I am glad you found a camera that sees the world the way you see it. Looking forward to seeing future works with the Pentax 67ii. P.s that photo of the man swinging with shy behind him to my breath away. Because that’s a very difficult shot and using the Pentax 67 like street camera is a very very tough gig.
Congrats! 🙌 You wanted this for so long. It’s inspiring to see how you interact w people/strangers you photograph and what you bring out of the moment.
I have a Pentax 67 since 2015, bought with the 135 macro and over the years I have added the Takumar 55 and SMC 165 2.8 . Everyyime I use this camera, everytime I scan the negatives, it always amazes me how wonderful it is. For me there's no doubt this is the best camera ever made.
This is so amazing. I've actually been on my Pentax 67 journey as well and the experience has just been awesome. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have been enjoying mine. They are beasts of a camera. I didn't go all the way to 67II because I wanted to be mostly manual. The 105 mm lens is one of the nicest lenses I've used so far! Really happy to see a new video from you and pleasantly surprised about it being related to the exact camera I've been spending all my time with.
I've held my friends 67 before, it's really not that different... if you enjoy everything manual, it's really a good choice since it's much cheaper as well!!
What an absolute delight it is to watch this video! Honestly I’m so looking forward to future work you produce and the images are stunning. Thank you for sharing your experience 😊
18:46 I have the Asashi Pentax 6x7 with the 105 lens, and I agree wide open it can be difficult to achieve perfect focus. What I found was they made a magnifier that helps rectify this. That mother and child photo was awesome. Ps. On the film photography project website they sell an adapter that allows you to load 35mm film in cameras made for the 120 film. Enabling you to get panoramic-format photographs with different sizes depending on your camera’s frame size. Plus you get those cool sprocket holes.
Hi Sam, I want to congratulate you on your great Pentax. I find your reportage about the first experiences very successful. I like your enthusiasm for analog medium format photography and your English is so cute. My favorite camera since 1975 is the Hasselblad 500EL-M and the 500 CM with the analog magazine and the digital back from the 907x. I live in northern Germany at the Baltic Sea and find here also beautiful motifs but sometimes I would also like to be back on the west coast. Please keep up the good work and never lose your inspiration and friendliness! Greetings from Lübeck from Julius.
yes Sam, I have that feeling now, with my hasselblads, and my Sinar F2; what is happening is that the tools' quirks are understood, the camera is in muscle memory, and you just 'gel' with it, your vision comes out onto the film/paper, and your creativity and soul express itself, as you know how to use it, what light/film work best with it, and you feel the workflow to use it come to mind as you touch it. You in essence have found something which gives you what you want, and enjoy using it, as you know it works, and you like what you do with it, esp. the pride when you see the first 'good' roll come out, and think... I did that!!!
This wasn't just an amazing camera review , but it provided a great insight into Sam as a photographer and your style. I'm very envious of your Pentax 67 II. The video and editing is amazing. ❤
Loved watching this! Everything in layman's terms, thoroughly entertaining and hosted by a beautiful and pleasant lady. My only couple of surprises were you didn't use a tripod and didn't use any flash. Also appreciate no bad language which is an ever increasing and negative trend on TH-cam. Overall though I also loved your piccies.Grwat effort.
I immediately thought of Ansel Adams when you talked about seeing the photo in your mind first. Quoting Stieglitz, by “pre-visualization” Ansel essentially meant that you have to see an image with your mind’s eye before it can become more than a snapshot.
Some cameras are for fun, I get them to try it out or to collect.. but this one, is definitely a working camera, it’s a camera I’d actually use for creating photos~
Lately, I have been watching a lot of film photography content and I am curious about this camera. It is not in my budget right now, but especially after seeing your video, I have decided that I will buy this model when the opportunity comes. Thanks for the in-depth review!
Sam, this is the first video I’ve ever watched from you and it made me so emotional and so happy! Your joy is contagious, and I could feel the emotion coming through in your photos. It’s so inspiring 🥹 thank you for this, really
I'm so happy that your very first picture on your dream camera turned out to be such a banger! Also love the live guard's, but the guy on the swings is my favourite.
While I have too many cameras, the Pentax 67ii is the one that inspires me the most and I absolutely love the images it creates. Glad you found your dream camera and looking forward to seeing more of your images!
Your love for your camera takes me back. I really appreciate your connection with people, it shines through the photo and the story you tell. This is a quality of great portrait photographers. I love shooting 120. I still have my MF cameras and should dust them off.
As someone who has always watched your videos, i'm truly happy for you Sam,mamiya rb67 has always been my dream camera and i'm blessed to finally own one.... 15:23 to 15:30 "thats what she said" x 4
Congratulations!! I recently had the chance holding one RB67 in my hand for the first time, and I immediately give up on wanting to have one 😂… it’s is too BULKY!! but that being said, I still really want to get a RZ67 though~ lol
This is such a beautiful video and ode to the relationship a photogrpaher has with their gear. When both are in sync, everything is possible. Your energy is vibrant too and this has been the easiest subscribe in a while!
What a lovely video and thanks for sharing the shooting experience as well as those amazing pictures!! 👏 I've just picked up my 67 two months ago and am absolutely in love with it. Can't agree with more when you said it takes a picture just as the way you imagined and even better 😻
This is so great. I was in awe the first time I held a Pentax 67. It's an incredible camera, the clunk of the shutter is ridiculous. Lovely video Sam! Thank you for sharing with us!
Sam you are so genuinely awesome. I love your work. Your videos are so engaging. You Rock!!!

To work around the lack of settings of the photo, I take a photo with my phone of the top of my camera, and make sure the settings are visible (shutter speed, iso, aperture) and then I save it in a file in my computer. Then I use exiftool to update the settings of the scan, so the settings match the actual exposition settings.
Lovely video. So informative and relaxing. When I watch I feel right there on the beach. I am resisting the temptation to feed the gear acquisition syndrome with a Pentax 67II.
the camera is nice and all, but the pictures.. i love them so much! i think they have something very unique to them. also the way you interact with people and how positive everyone reacts, is really nice to see :)
Very, very nice video, it’s long but in a very great way, I took time to watch it and felt great after that. Great mood, great smile on your face at any moment, beautiful portraits… Just subscribed ❤
Been shooting with a P67 for 9 years. It’s really all about the lenses. The 105, 55, 75, 165, and others are so unique. Great resolving power, but not clinical at all. It’s a wonderful system. Enjoy.
I just wanted to say, more than any other video that you've posted (that I've watched), this particular one had me smiling each time you approached a stranger to ask them if you could take a portrait of them. I liked all of the portraits, especially the one of the young lady by herself at the beach. Watching their body language as they responded to your request had me nervous for you and the outcome, only to be rewarded with a "yes"....Please... get a series going of "Stranger Portraits"... your videography is lovely. "Thank you".
I love your work, and especially the wonderful way you come across both in the video and how you interact with your subjects. Sadly, I feel I may have to buy a 67ii
Those photos are so good! I Love my Pentax 645n and sometimes feeling like getting the 6X7 but the size always scares me but the results seem worth it.
Thank you :) the size is definitely intimidating!! But you only have 10 shots per roll, sooooo.. the time you actually gonna hold it up for the shot is actually shorter LOL~ that’s my logic! 😂
I really enjoyd this video. I love your positive energy. You take great portaits, of people and other things. I have a Pentax 67II my self, but have recently bought a Mamiya C220 as will and think that is a camera that suits me very good. But I will always keep my P67II :-)
Congrats on getting your dream camera!! I recently bought a 6x7 but it has problems that I need to send it to get it fix. Recently during Filmstock in ATL, I was able to talk to more people and got to hold a Bronica and that changed things for me. I bought one and it’s been sooo much fun shooting it! I feel like I found a new camera that inspires me to go shoot more often. Your photos in this videos were amazing!! I can’t wait to see you shoot more with this camera!
The vibes I get from this video is that this camera was made for you. The photos are amazing. My favorite was probably the swing in mid-air, but honestly they're all so good. I've always kinda wanted one of these, partially because I'm an Araki fan and he uses one, but man, after watching... I gotta take a G.A.S. pill..
I will definitely use it more and see how I feel about it later. When I just got the Hasselblad, I was pretty excited too.. but I had some problems with it later.. so, we will see~ LOL
Hey Sam! Great video on the Pentax 67II. I am looking for one with the 105mm f2.4 too, mint if possible. It'll be the ultimate find, a dream come true. It is pretty hard to come by those here in India though. However, I got myself a mint Nikon FM2n body last week which I have yet to shoot. It's been my dream camera ever since I started shooting film in November/December 2020. Everything on mine is perfect. Mounted an AF Nikkor 50mm f1.8D on it and it is ready to go. I can imagine your joy on getting your dream camera. Congratulations! Cheers!🎉
Congrats on your new camera! I think it's easier for a female to approach people to ask to make a photograph, at least in the U.S. I think people have a natural tendency to be, "on guard" if a male approaches them. You do seem like a natural at making people comfortable and putting them at ease. Love my Pentax 67, except I wish the viewfinder/focusing screen were about 2 stops brighter. I am on the fence about buying a Pentax 67II. The electronics (and finding a competent technician to work on it) are what make me apprehensive.
Heyo! Just wanted to note that there's actually 4 models of the pentax 6x7. Original 6x7, 6x7 MLU (which has a mirror lockup, 67, and then 67ii! there's marginal difference between the first two but I believe some parts are more reliable on the second gen (I also have one hahah)
hope you enjoy using it, but a WARNING, removing a lens, or that finder must be done to the manual, the f-stop linkage to the meter is a fusee chain, like in a watch, and it can be broken if the aperture ring is in the wrong position prior to removal of either part.
Thank you for the tip, I’ll be careful. I had the same problem with the Hasselblad before.. ended up jamming the shutter.. so I’ll definitely be careful this time~
@@itscapturedbysam Hasselblad is different, it uses a screwdriver and screw connecting system for it's leaf shutter, it MUST be cocked before removal!- if you don't want to advance the film (multi-exposing) put the darkslide in, and take the mag off, then cock the shutter, then all is safe.
@@itscapturedbysam there is one exception to the multi-exposure procedure, that of the 2000/200 bodies, those have a button under the winding crank, this allows multi without taking the mag off (this is important, as those are focal plane bodies, and the shutter curtain is directly in front of the mag), so this is a safe way, so you don't cut the shutter.
I have a 6x7 on the way to me now from Japan. I can’t wait to receive it!!!!!!
The photo of the guy on the swing with the sky above him was so beautiful!!!
It is good that you do not have many shots per roll. It means that you have big negatives !!!
RS. Canada

Its not really the leaf shutter thats the problem just the lack of a mirror. I mean the RZ67 is a leaf shutter but the mirror slap is so loud its amazing.
@@Tikkumies100 RZ is really not that bad. Try the shutter on a Bronica S2 made of all metal, it's bone jarring!
Just stumbled onto this video and I think I smiled throughout the entire thing. The joy this brought you is palpable!
Sam, I have to say this truly one of your best videos. I just love your vision and how capture people with such empathy and genuine curiosity. I am glad you found a camera that sees the world the way you see it. Looking forward to seeing future works with the Pentax 67ii.

Something very wholesome in your videos, thank you for sharing
Congratulations and this has been one of the most genuine and enjoyable videos I’ve seen in a very long time. Wishing you lots of joy and success.
These photos show the leisure side of life in US. They are good, even in 35mm format.
Such great shots, you have a wonderful intuition 🙌
Sam, this is the first video I’ve ever watched from you and it made me so emotional and so happy! Your joy is contagious, and I could feel the emotion coming through in your photos. It’s so inspiring 🥹 thank you for this, really

Awesome video and vibe. Want to see you take more great portraits and portraits of buildings with it.
Thank you~ ☺️
Congratulations Sam, I was like you 2 months ago, so happy to put my hand on this moonrock.
It is the best medium format camera to me, enjoy !
High-five!!
Really enjoyed this, thank you for sharing! But dang it - now this camera is on my wish list - hopefully one day I'll get one too :D

Can photos taken with PENTA X67II be edited in Lightroom?
Yes.. any film photo can be digitized by scanning and converting.. then you can edit just like how you edit digital photos~
I really enjoyed this video. I enjoy all your videos but I could feel your excitement. Im so stoked for you! Love the photos!
Thank you 😊
I enjoyed it. Your photos are outstanding. ❤
Have fun with this camera.
Your happiness makes me happy 🤩
Congrats from Japan! I have Mamiya 67 Pro SD and enjoy shooting pictures.
I love your work, and especially the wonderful way you come across both in the video and how you interact with your subjects. Sadly, I feel I may have to buy a 67ii
Strap position is great, rotate the camera 90 degrees with the handle facing down and resting on your palm ✋
This is motivation to go out and start taking photos of strangers again! The Pentax is such a beast! I gotta go shoot in Santa Monica soon!
I love Santa Monica, I gotta go explore more places to shoot though~
Big congrats 🎉 So happy for you and happy belated birthday 🥳 Thanks for sharing your excitement of getting your new treasure.
Thank you :)

Nice, nice work. I've not liked this film before. You made it sing. Big camera for a little lady. All without a tripod! Amazing.
Great review. I love the passion.
Looks like its going to be a lot of fun to use this camera, it is huge but leaves a huge impression 😅. Great video! ❤

This is so beautiful I have the old Pentax 67 with the 105 lens, to be honest, my best medium format Camera, thanks for share this amazing video.
Outstanding video. TY for posting.
Thank you~
I can see that the 6x7 composition/ratio is your natural eye. Cheers & congrats! 🫶🏽. When you shoot 2.4, exhale slowly...you'll nail focus better.
Exhale slowly!! Got it, I’ll try it next time!!
Love the photos My dream camera is still the one I have the Pentax 645N but I use all manual focus.
The vibes I get from this video is that this camera was made for you. The photos are amazing. My favorite was probably the swing in mid-air, but honestly they're all so good. I've always kinda wanted one of these, partially because I'm an Araki fan and he uses one, but man, after watching... I gotta take a G.A.S. pill..

Sam have a blessed and successful week
Thank you
Congrats! Waiting for your video for a month :)

Lovely❤ some days ago ive purchased a Pentax 645 D , seen on TH-cam and bought a few days later...i'm waiting for lenses arrive...😅
Congratulations on getting the new camera!! 🥳
Heyo! Just wanted to note that there's actually 4 models of the pentax 6x7. Original 6x7, 6x7 MLU (which has a mirror lockup, 67, and then 67ii! there's marginal difference between the first two but I believe some parts are more reliable on the second gen (I also have one hahah)
So happy for you!!🎉
this is how i felt with the pentax 6x7 mlu a few years ago
The love in your voice is all that matters. It’s just a tool. A hammer, a screwdriver, a wrench.
It's such a nice camera. Loved mine a lot but sold it at the beginning of the digital photography age. Nowadays I cannot afford it anymore 😅
Not just the camera the films too are really expensive!! 😭
awesome video, and even better photos. What film stock were you using for the morning shots on the beach?? Colors were great
The first half is Portra 400, then it’s gold 200
hope you enjoy using it, but a WARNING, removing a lens, or that finder must be done to the manual, the f-stop linkage to the meter is a fusee chain, like in a watch, and it can be broken if the aperture ring is in the wrong position prior to removal of either part.
Thank you for the tip, I’ll be careful. I had the same problem with the Hasselblad before.. ended up jamming the shutter.. so I’ll definitely be careful this time~
@@itscapturedbysam Hasselblad is different, it uses a screwdriver and screw connecting system for it's leaf shutter, it MUST be cocked before removal!- if you don't want to advance the film (multi-exposing) put the darkslide in, and take the mag off, then cock the shutter, then all is safe.
@@itscapturedbysam there is one exception to the multi-exposure procedure, that of the 2000/200 bodies, those have a button under the winding crank, this allows multi without taking the mag off (this is important, as those are focal plane bodies, and the shutter curtain is directly in front of the mag), so this is a safe way, so you don't cut the shutter.
I love my pentax 67ii
