You asked for portraits with the Hasselblad X-Pan, here you go. I also shot the Mamiya 645 with the 80/1.9. I started out with some Provia 100 in the Mamiya and Rollei Retro 80s in the X-Pan and later also shot a roll of Kodak Portra 400 with the Mamiya. It was bloody hot but good fun.
The film was developed and scanned at home.
Hope you enjoy the episode, see you in the next video! :)

I liked how you shared the shutter speed/aperture readings. It really helps contextualize the lighting situation. Keep doing that please!
Thank you Eric, will try my best to continue to provide you with all the settings in future videos.
The X-Pan look incredible. Wow...
Loved this one.. The black and whites from the Hassy were littttt
Slowly catching up on all your videos Robin. Loved this shoot. Great images, and a wonderful model too. I've just bought my first roll of Provia after drooling endlessly over its look for months and months. I love the look of Rollei R80S but the Provia shots are otherworldly. Amazing.
Beautiful pictures and combination (ultra-wide and. 4:3). The model: Beautiful and dynamic.
This model is an absolute knockout.
Thank you, I'll let her know. 😀
the_real_sir_robin you should work with her again. Your captures were top notch.
@@EDHBlvd absolutely agree. Nice work
The black and white images were amazing. Love the portraits. Your model definitely made your job a bit easier as well ha.
Thank you Jimmy. There will be more content with her in the future. 😊✌️
The X-Pan pics were, as always, amazing. The last one, however, is in a league of it's own in my opinion. The medium formats became worderful and dreamy once you started using the Portra. What a nice shoot !
Thank you Iggie! 🙏
I enjoyed the monochrome images more than the colour, a totally different feel.🎞📷😎
That Retro S is sick!
“But she insisted” lol I’ve been there. Thanks for telling us the settings of each frame! Great vid
Thank you!
Nice gril and medium format wins
your portraits are as good as street photos
Thank you Tatyana! 🙏
Amazing 80 1.9~great works
Man those xpan shots look great
I love that Provia, I don't shoot portraits but in these shots it looks great.
Thank you! Yeah, Provia is awesome, still have some rolls in the fridge waiting. 👌
pffooef the magic of film. hard to beat, no matter the number of megapixels. nice vid!
Thank you very much!
Really love the shots at 5:37 and 8:44 and the very last shot. The lens flares work.
Thank you Chris!
Heidelberg is a lovely city. It was really interesting to see your approach. Thanks!
Thank you David!
Man, that B&W with the x-pan is insane. I love the pics at 2:13, 5:37, 7:35, and 8:30. They really show the model's beauty. Love the portra shots at 9:49, 10:54, and 11:12. It is so hard to just pick one photo, They are all so good!!!!
Thank you very much Richard! 🙏
I wouldn't have thought the xpan would be good at portraits, but yours were *so* good. I'm impressed at your ability to use that format as a strength in this context.
Thank you Moishe! 👍
Loved the portra and the Rollei, great vid!
Thank you!
Shes beauuutiful. Love the XPAN shots, the Portra 400 images look great (as usual)
Thank you!
Music always on point 👌🏻👌🏻
Another great video. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you!
6:21, 7:36 wow.. Xpan can do anything
Thank you! 👏
Great Portraits
Thank you Marcel!
killing it again robin! very cool to see the rollei film on the xpan
Thank you very much Caleb! 👌
Very nice! I love the 80mm f1.9 Portra 100 images. I would have liked one vertical shot with the Fuji X-Pan, but they were all excellent. I was in Germany for 3 weeks in April 2015 and I don’t remember hardly any ugly graffiti. Thanks for this video. Film Rules!
Thank you! Have used the Xpan vertically but I don't overly like the results. 😬
Another great video thank you. 2-3 days I should have the Zine at my house here in Canada
Very nice portraits
Thank you Frank! 🙏
The lens flare is actually really beautiful. I expected a much greater drop in contrast.
Loved the X-pan results! Also if you come back to Heidelberg again, let me know so that I can grab my film camera as well!
Thank you! Won't be back to Heidelberg for while.
Your best video and shoots ever!! (got easier with such a model though)
Thank you Mario! 🙏
Great shooting again. Keep going 👍.
Thank you Shantanu! ✌️
The X-Pan portraits were so refreshing, with their composition and the contrast of the film, very nice. The usual Portra on medium format which just everybody shoots ends up being quite bland for me.
Thank you! Portra might be widely used but it's a great film nevertheless! 👌
Favorite photos at 9:17, 9:29 and 9:49. Also with WLF I think portraits are better if you are slightly above or at eye-level versus getting the up-the-nose shots. Portra 400 is one of my favs too. Enjoyed the video and photos, thanks for sharing. Peace!
Thank you Shawn! 🙏
7:21 🤯 They don’t lock their bikes! Would never happen in LA,lol. Beautiful portrait Robin. Was impressed w how well the X-Pan performed.
Thank you Talya! The bikes are actually but you can easily carry them away. 😂
Great job on this they came out great. Even though the xpan is not a portrait cam I like the wide bw portraits.
Thank you very much! ✌️
Ohh der Rollei Retro sieht Klasse aus 👌🏻 Wenn ich das nächste Mal in HD bin, melde ich mich 🙃 der Sitz unseres Mutterhauses ist dort.
Ja, find den auch echt super! Klar, geb Bescheid, vielleicht bin ich ja zufällig vor Ort. 👍
Excellent
World Class
Thank you! ✌️
6:55 camera man definitely got the better angle! XD great video though!
Great as always Robin! Did you try a generic rubber hood to avoid glare on the 80mm 1.9?
I have the same lens and I usually shoot back light, and most of the times it's not an issue for me.
Thank you Juan! I don't have a hood for it. 🤗
@@therealsirrobin Just look on Amazon or Ebay "xx mm rubber hood" xx=filter size they are cheap.
Love these portrait videos, very nice to see how you and the model move around. Awesome work, Robin! Final shots came out amazing. That Portra roll was fantastic...
I'll go against the flow on this and say that all the technical information doesn't quite fit the mood; would rather hear how you chose locations and if you made arrangements to pose; still... seeing how much of a positive response you got from it, it's clear you should keep doing it, hahaha. Very entertaining to watch nonetheless.
Also props for the camera-man with the on point with the composition at 11:05, hahahaha.
Thank you Ivan! We should shoot a video together when I am in Korea! 👏
Definitely, man :D I'd love to!
Specially liked the lens flare shots; adds a dreamy quality. Thanks for the video !
I’m surprised you shot Provia in the shade. I always get my best results with it in direct sunlight. I tend to front light my subjects though.
I try to avoid that, especially in harsh lighting. But that's just me.
Crazy how you remembered all the settings after the shoot. I liked the talk thru on this one. Dope portraits.
Nick Pirro maybe he told it with the camera running and cut these scenes...
Yes, I was using a lav mic and always recorded the settings after getting a meter reading. 👏
Very cool photos ... I was like this photo what is in this 9:29 ... this come very cool :)
Soon I'm back to see what next come up :)
I agree. The photo is grate and the model is terrific!!!
Thank you very much! 🙂
Sehr cooles Video! Wohne in der Nähe von Heidelberg und wollte man fragen, ob du auch Fototouren/ -kurse anbietest?
Danke dir Alexander! Momentan sind keine Workshops in Deutschland geplant, kann sich in der Zukunft aber ändern. ✌️
Damn, you've got this legendary 80mm/1.9 on your 645?
great, thank you for sharing :)
Thank you!
dope
Can you name the music? Wonderful video
Thank you! The music is from epidemic sound. 👌
Hi Robin, which lightmeter do you use?
Hi, I thing is the Gossen DigiPro F2
www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/901343-REG/gossen_go_4033_2_digipro_f_flash_ambient_lightmeter.html?sts=pi&pim=Y
Exactly! 👏
when you say you metered portra at 100, do you then pull development or develop normally
I developed without any compensation.
Great shots! It is unfair advantage when you have a gorgeous model. Doesn't she look like the blonde version of Monica Bellucci ? :)
Thank you! 🙏
Not relevant to this topic video, but for your Q, do you shoot in Raw or Jpg mode?
Yes, totally irrelevant for this video. 😁 Do you really think there is a possibility that I shoot JPEG? 😜
the_real_sir_robin you replied me already. film dng. Hehe... I purchased your presets. awesome stuff. i find myself using film like preset the most. Does it create a muted black by default? it goes very well with the Q2 dng
Portrait at 9:01 👍👍
Portraits on X-Pan a little tough but the ones at 5:37 and 8:28 were striking.
Thank you! Yes, it's a very different experience when shooting portraits with an Xpan.
What kind of light meter is it?
Ewald Dieser Gossen I think
An incident meter. Takes the reading of light that falls on the small white hemisphere.
Exactly!
Since the X-Pan is becoming so bloody expensive, perhaps it's time to petition Hasselblad to start producing limited runs of this camera again?
Would be great but it's not gonma happen. There isn't much profit to make for Hasselblad or Fuji who were the manufacturers. Would be super cool though.
@@therealsirrobin wouldn't hurt to try if enough petitioned!
良いポートレート撮影ですが、、、モデルさんに緊張が見られます。 もっとリラックスさして
you are much better as a street photographer . there are some nice portraits there ... but you still don't have the same eye for portraits as you have for street photography .
I find the model very inspiring, good choice of outfit, less fan of your photos for once, not simple with film, I find most of your framing a little too tight, this is just my opinion, and easy to say while watching the video will tell me, pretty potos all the same;)
The framing was on purpose and there are more than enough photos in the video where the framing isn't tight.
Why do you forgot the rest of her body?
No American shot, very very few medium shot,... I think you have missed many good photos and of course her efforts to have a nice full look.
I don’t know, but a sesión with two very different cameras like those, could no help to focus your mind in the composition (I think it will disturb to me).
Fair enough but don't you think that it's my choice and there is no standard protocol that I have to follow for a photoshoot? 😉
Loved watching the shoot, hearing your settings and some of the photos, but the damned music ruined it for me. Music is not necessary, let's just hear you and your interaction with the model.
Somehow, I found the cameraman to be a better model in this case.
😳 I won't tell her that. 🤣
