    Yo Jason, I've been binging your videos up and down over the last weeks, and I really want to give you my compliments. Not sure what I love the most about your videos...is it your upbeat humour? Is it that furry potato you call a dog? Or is it simply your pictures, that certainly make me feel like I'm not the worst photographer out there... Who knows. Anyways, I'm more than ready to plunge right into an unhealthy parasocial relationship! Are you?
    For real, though: You've been motivating me tons to get back into analogue photography and trying out medium format for the first time. You're great at what you're doing (both the photography and the videography) and I hope that you'll be doing it for a long time to come.

    After shooting a few rolls of Gold 200 (120) I would agree it is more of a 160 in terms of light sensitivity. Shooting at box speed leads to underexpose. I love the grain and colors, though magenta is noticeable, also probably due to under exposure. One thing I don't like is that the film is extremely difficult to scan on a flatbed. It is very thin and retains its curl and unlike other film stocks refuses to lay flat. That said I will use it but expose it as a 160 film. The browns and blacks are very rich, like Portra 800. The grain is very pleasing and the reds pop.

  • @bagnome
    @bagnome 2 ปีที่แล้ว +137

    I think it would be cool if once a quarter Kodak delved into its archives and looked for an old film stock that they could reproduce with materials they currently keep in stock. Then make a run or two of it and then do it all over again next quarter with a different stock. Stick with materials currently available to them to keep the price down. I think that would be cool.
    Especially after seeing the Smarter Everyday video on creating the emulsions, I wonder how hard it would be to remake an older stock with their current ingredients. I would be like you going through your pantry to see which of your grandma's recipes you could cook without making a trip to the grocery store.

    Hey we got it out here in Shanghai about a week ago I shot it in studio and some outside whilst it’s not Portra it’s a viable option and I think the greens can be quite flexible on this stock, dope video as always and kodak didn’t invite me either, which is totally cool because I was at a thrift store with $5 looking for a camera to buy

    the gold 200 actually means more than ektachrome to me honestly..since that is what most of my childhood was shot on. the 120 on the other hand feels desaturated and trying to replicate the past, badly...like marvel's new movies. I've still stuck to the gold 200/fuji c200 (they feel the same) and the ilford fp4 for B&W stuff. If only the overall costs weren't enough to bankrupt me, i'd only shoot film

So informative and funny at the same time is really hard to nail. Also don't listen to your doctor and keep the dew up, baxter indeed will remember you as the aerochrome nerd you are.

  • @cliftonwhittaker260

    I probably shot a ton of Gold 100 in my Mamiya 645 1000s back when. Then those friggin Hunt brothers devised a scheme to try to corner the market on silver and film prices doubled. Don't think I ever shot any in 35mm. Well, maybe one time. I got an Olympus M-2 with their Zuiko 50mm lens and I tested a roll of Gold 100 in it. I didn't know that 35mm could produce such wonderful "creamy" tones. They were made for each other and the result was shear beauty. But, I had already moved on to medium format. I have two M-2 cameras still sitting in my camera cabinet along with all the other cameras I have owned during my 62 years in photography. Not that many. I only bought new equipment when it could help me do something that I couldn't do with what I already owned. I still have my Mamiya with three lenses. Oh, and I think I have an Olympus M-2 stuck back somewhere, too.

      not jason, but yes. film past it's expiry date does tend to lose sensitivity based on storage. this channel recently made a video on how to shoot expired film, i think it's the most recent one.
