- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2024
- CCD sensors are special. Even when paired with this fully automatic Canon digicam. JPEG only with this digital camera. Fully auto point and shoot.
Music for this video was mixed using Track Club's Mix Lab feature where you can custom mix any song to adjust the volume of specific stems or exclude specific stems to make your own version of the song.
Audio for this video was recorded in the locations where the photographs were taken using a Tascam DR-10L lav mic attached to me while taking photos, and the Deity V-Mic D3 shotgun mic on my camera while recording video.
This video was edited with Final Cut Pro.

#canon #streetphotography #digicam
This camera continues to surprise me. I skipped digicams entirely in the 2000s. I went from 35mm point and shoot film to the original iPhone back in 2008. I always thought these cameras were pointless, TBH. Now I see that they make some really distinct images and the CCD sensor does some magical things even with a JPEG.
Wow, a "digicam" video that consists mostly of photos taken with the camera. And great photos too. Such a refreshing break from most digicam videos on TH-cam. Thanks! 👍
That’s what I’m talking about! And that’s why I started this channel - I was frustrated with so many videos not showing enough photos and mostly showing just the TH-camr speaking to camera or filming themselves out taking photos.
I wanted to just vibe out to photos (and some video) and see what all these different cameras look like.
Appreciate you tuning in!
hell yeah, this is what we all want, just photos to judge the camera quality. And you give us some great photos as inspiration! Thansk man @@somephotovideos
@@jonnhygringo2 My pleasure! So far the digicams with CCD sensors are - for me - making the best images.
your film reflects your passion for this part of town. a way of seeing.
I've always loved how cities break themselves up into distinct neighborhoods - that was the case in Chicago and Los Angeles. And of course there are several more here in Omaha to film and photograph...
@@somephotovideos Part 2?
@@casuallycrude Plenty more to come. I’m sure I’ll be back to Benson at some point too…
i loved this so much. it's so hard nowadays to find some chill videos with no shouting about gear and sponsors and new products, but yours is exactly what i've been looking for. subdued, quiet, but so beautiful. i love that you shoot on digicams as i've been trying to get back to that myself as well. such a breath of fresh air, thank you for sharing!
This is one of the main reasons I made this channel. I couldn’t find high quality “vibe out” videos that presented photos and video with some info about a specific camera. My hope is that there are a lot of other TH-cam users like you and me who will find the channel.
Appreciate the kind words and thanks for being a part of my little experiment here… 🙌
Agreed! Absolutely loving this channel.
I’d also recommend Dylan Spitz for great, chilled photography.
@@ReubenClarke I will check it out🤘
Love the vibe. Interested to see more places shot on digicams.
Ohhhh plenty more to come. Probably going to be a little Omaha-centric, but I’m in LA now with a couple of digicams so expect those vids soon enough… 📸🤘
Really loving the vibe of your videos
Thanks so much for saying so, Reuben. Excited to get more out soon - I’ve got quite a few ready for edit, two big videos from Chicago in particular. Thanks for being a part of the channel!
I looked this camera up because I found it in my moms closet and I wanna take pics with it instead of my phone, I’m excited now
You found a great vintage digicam! Congrats! Keep in mind I did some light editing using the RNI Films app - it does a lot to give the image some character with a bit of grain and some Kodak Portra 400 emulation. Thanks for watching!
There is something very satisfying about producing stunning images from a camera that costs so little!
I try and achieve similar results with my thrift shop camera finds!😊
I think you got the balance between camera and photos spot on, I tend to waffle on too much about the camera and it's spec, when really it's the photos people want to see.
I've added your channel, hopefully you'll connect with another retro camera, photography creator?
And really this channel is my reaction to all the other photography channels and videos I’ve consumed over the years. At one point I thought to myself, “I’d love to watch a video that’s just a vibe that gives a little info about the camera but then transports me to someplace new… using music, video, photos and the sounds of the place to immerse me in a feeling.”
I could find any of those kinds of videos so I decided to make my own.
Appreciate you watching and commenting 🙌
@@somephotovideos Inspiring concept, I'll try and learn from that! 😊
Awesome video and photos of Omaha. A4000 creates some interesting images.
It really does. Hard to beat for $10. Appreciate you watching and commenting.
I recognize this window (@3:59) from your other video, when it had the baseballs in it. I really like that shot. Omaha is about 100% different than what I expected. The only real knowledge I have of it is that 311 are from there. Looks like a great place for photo walks.
It’s actually a different window! This one is from an empty department store window in downtown Omaha. And Omaha has exceeded my expectations as someone who’s only loved in big cities and never expected to settle down here. And it keeps getting better!
@@somephotovideos Cool beans, might have to hit you up for coffee if I'm ever out that way (no pun intended). Really cool vibes, and it seems like you're doing it justice.
@@yargnad Sounds good! Appreciate all the support!
Another nice made video and good looking images.
With greetings from lower Bavaria.
Thank you and thanks for watching. I’m amazed at what old digicams can do.
@@somephotovideos Yes older cameras are not bad. If know the settings which works best you can get realy good images.
kodak film look🥺❤️
Portra 400 FTW🤘 But not as expensive… 👀
Inspirational.
So glad to hear that. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.
wow . in love
Appreciate that. Thanks so much for watching and commenting. Plenty more digicam vids coming...
Just picked one up today for $20 I'm super stoked 😁
That’s great! Thrift store?
@@somephotovideos yep! Saw it in the cabnit and yoinked it as fast as I could 😂😂
@@4doorsupra153 Nicely done and congrats! I ended up selling mine because I have so many I need to test and make videos for, but I wish I could keep ‘em all!
hey ! can u pls mention the adjustments u did to the photos? loved them...
I use the RNI Films app for iPhone / iPad. They have film emulation for Kodak Portra 400. I reduce the strength of it quite a bit and then just do normal tweaks to exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, grain and vignette.
@@somephotovideosthis is a great app with a countless number of great film simulations.
@@MrAndreCoutinho Agreed!
thank you for the video, i was just wondering how was the battery life for the camera? did it drain really fast?
It didn’t! It lasted a few hours, but it was always on while I was out shooting so I wouldn’t miss a shot. Probably lasts quite a bit longer if you turn it off more frequently.
Hello may i know the setting camera you use for the entire photos? Thankyou
I edit the photos using the RNI Films app for iPad. I use their Portra 400 preset and make a lot of adjustments to tone it down, increase contrast, etc. It's a great app if you want to make your digicam photos look a bit more like 35mm film.
SOOC images?
Negative. End credits give the info on what I use to edit them - TL;DR: I always protect my highlights when shooting (as much as possible) and edit using the RNI Films app for iPad. I add a very subtle Kodak Portra 400 film emulation and of course adjust all the normal stuff to my liking - black point, highlights, shadows, saturation, etc.
With some of the Canon digicams (not this one) I use the Positive Film preset if the camera I'm using has that feature (not all Canon digicams have the Positive Film preset). With Fujifilm cameras, I typically use the Chrome preset. I do additional edits with the RNI Films app as well.
I use to use the toy camera mode a lot, but it has suddenly disappeared. When I click the up arrow, all I see is Auto and self timer. Please help :(
I didn’t know this camera had a Toy mode. For some reason I thought that mode was in the Fuji digicams but not Canon. I looked through the menu system on my Canon but couldn’t see any kind of Toy mode.
It looks like some of the Canon PowerShot cameras have a Toy mode, but it looks like this specific model doesn’t.
Do you shoot the video for these also on the camera, or is it another one?
I haven’t shot the video portions in the cameras featured because the quality is so bad and the focus (pun intended) is more on the photographs. I use a Canon EOS R for the video with the aim of giving the viewer a stronger sense of place to support the photos.
@@somephotovideos i did think that might be the case but wanted to check. Thank you!
What setting did you used?
I used the camera's default Auto setting, so what I think you're seeing in the images is the combo of the magic of CCD sensors (and the blooming of highlights) with my subtle edits. I use the RNI for iPhone / iPad app to add a Kodak Portra 400 film emulation, but I reduce the strength of it significantly so it doesn't look like I've just applied a filter. I make other subtle adjustments to contrast, shadows, highlights, warmth, etc. You can check out RNI here: reallyniceimages.com
Are the videos also shot on the a4000?
They aren’t! Shot with my Canon EOS R. I did shoot some video with it but it’s really low quality. I’m hoping to do a round of videos where the footage is from the same camera I took photos with. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Great camera, awful photos
Appreciate the support, Jack.
How many millions of pictures are either on hard drives or phones that no one will ever see or give a shit about?
Other than family and friends , there is not a picture on the planet that hasn’t already been taken.
Most likely on a better camera by a better photographer.
Add AI to that now
Photography should be something you just enjoy doing, gets you out and about with a purpose.
Any camera will do
I see where you’re coming from but I think I share a more romantic point of view that nobody has ever made the photos that I’m going to make. Similar? Sure, some will be. But many will be like no other. That’s what I strive for.
