Just got my 50mm off eBay for my RZ, so this is timely and helpful. The 110mm is just too restrictive.
Getting back into learning to shoot film after a time of grief. The healing powers of the camera.
Nice! I need a wider one for this camera! Enjoy!
Legend is he is still looking for the lighthouse, and on cold, misty nights you can still here him saying "bummer"... 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Hiking! Landscapes! I thought I was on Steve O'nions channel. 😁 Great stuff and really enjoyable video, Roger (I love Steve's work too).
Glad you enjoyed it. Steve is a nice guy and brilliant photographer.
My usual style with landscape photos is low and wide.
Also you're lookin a bit like Sean Connery in this video.
I was very intrigued with video. I liked it! I thought maybe, for me, older, than you.. It's time to be careful. That big camera and it's lenses. Plus video equipment.. I always travelled lighter! The Mamiya stayed in studio, unless a major asignment. Even then.. A good 35mm SLR and fine grain film.Your'e using a tripod! Longer lenses way easier.. To beginners your printing make it easier. It really is! anyway look forward to more, incl. older vids.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I would like to ask you a question, how do you use this camera to focus on a landscape when the hyperfocal focus is many meters? For example, for an Agfa Record II, with a 105mm, f/11 lens, the hyperfocal is 24 meters, how can I focus at that distance with this type of camera. Thanks, good job.
the blue ring is just a reminder and isn't coupled with the lens at all. The zone markings are on the side of the bellows. If I didn't show it in this video just google images of the RZ67 and you will see the zone focusing scale on the side of the bellows.
The thing I love most about doing landscape photography is that it has an identity tied to the natural world of where I live. Someone else in the comment section mentioned that they don’t understand wildlife photography, and I personally think about it in the same way that I do about landscape. Since most of us take wildlife pictures of animals nearby to us, they have a local flavor to them. Our native animals are a part of our natural heritage just like the geography’s be landmarks are, and so I like having pictures around the house that remind me of where I live and where I come from
I guess with wildlife it's getting that photo that shows the animal doing it's thing in an interesting way. Such as a Kingfisher catching a fish! Or an Owl with talons wide open about to swoop onto a rodent. Or showing the vibrant colours of some. I've never done much wildlife photography. I think you need a good long lens for that job and much patience.
Personally I think if you can create an interesting landscape in black and white you’re a pretty damn good photographer. As opposed to shooting in color and then Photoshopping the fork out of it.
Some scapes do look a bit colourfully overdone
Next time, landscape with a Sinar😅
Nice images. Glad you found your way home. Breadcrumbs.
Yes! Thank you!
Roger how comes you have gone away from filters in the lamphead to the ones slung underneath?
The under the lens ones are much easier I find. The other ones I messed up big time! Finger marks and dropping them
Been getting back into/more thoughtful about film photography lately, and I've been pretty surprised with the differences between what I was expecting and what I'm experiencing. I THOUGHT I was going to be going out and enjoying a lot of wide angle landscapes, I really like those photos that come out of my phone. However, like your friend I was having trouble making them work. Photos seemed to always end up too "busy" and subjects tended to get lost. I ended up grabbing some long lenses and telephotos, and I've taken some of my favorites with those. Telephoto compression is a neat effect, fun to create some flat-but-layered photos.
Roger ..miss the tank inversions
Hey Roger, why not using your smartphone to find your way? Even at least to take a compass bearing before heading in the woods?
I forget Jason! LOL
@@ShootFilmLikeaBoss 🤣 well, you'll get there eventually 👍🏻 take care
I do like landscape photography, but the challenge is to find something "interesting" or "different". Now wildlife photography, is something that I'm not at all interested in. But that's just me.
Excellent video, love that first print! Spent my first ever summer holiday without mum and dad there and around the IOW.
Black and white film for landscapes, that would be my last choice.
Each to their own.
tell that to ansel
Very beatiful! Thanks!
Thanks!
Nice, it helps me to understand the importance of changing grade for the final result. Regards from France !
this is art
Love your work. Do you have much lint, dust, etc on your negatives after developing? Do you just edit out in the scan or what’s your process? Thanks.
I do get the odd dust and hair on the negs when scanning. Which, as you say, I can easily spot out in photoshop. In the darkroom I have to be very clean with the neg before printing so making sure it is as clean as possible before I put it in the enlarger. I use a rocket blower for this and a loupe to look at the neg before print.
Truly enjoyed this episode. You got some good photos and the plan was excellent. I am a big fan of the Mamiya RB67. I don't like the RZ67 as much because there is too much electronic on it that could go wrong. The RB67 is purely mechanical. However, whichever camera they are great to use. You are correct about the size but like you I put it in a backpack and carry it out with me. I don't take it on long or difficult walks but for anything else, I will suck up the weight to have the fun.
I've never held the RB. I must admit I didn't take spare batteries on this trip! Luckily they didn't fail!
Great viddy!!! Remember the old adage "F8 and be there" street photography works with all photography!!!
Absolutely! Cheers Brine.
Bravo, very interesting video clip.
Good video. Get an old fashion hand held compass.
Unless the scene is obvious landscape photography is lost to me.
I guess it's not everyone's bag Ian
One of my favorite parts of the island. I nearly went up there on Saturday but carried on to Steephill. To capture the race! Thankfully I didn’t get lost when I stumbled across it. 😂😂
I'd never been there before! Must find a way to that lighthouse.
@@ShootFilmLikeaBoss park down Swan Grove Niton and walk down the road to the lighthouse ..You can’t get lost on this one😂😂
Ever thought about using an orange filter to deal with toning the sky?
I had one with me but decided on the Red, Roger. I must admit I did think my skies would be deeper in the blues but I guess the sky wasn't as blue as I had thought.
What an amazing luck having those boats there.
Thats what I thought!
Brilliant !!! Loved that video and image ! Well done mate!
Many thanks mate
Did you shoot it with a 645-back?
I did Ronnie. I have a 6x7 back but I have to set up another enlarger to print.
Very nice video & landscape 💯📸💥
Thank you!
Another excellent video 👏👏👏
Thank you! Cheers!
Very nice, Rog.
Many thanks Lensman!
