I haven't watched youtube videos for a while and just realised (again!), how inspirational your photos are.
I'm getting so much out of them! The calmness, solitude and balanced color palette... love it. Thank you for sharing your work, Samuel.
Currently dreaming of the day I'll have a mamiya 7ii 😭
I picked up a Mamiya 7 w/ 65mm in 2018 for about $1.7K. Prices now are just way to crazy but I somewhat understand it based on its functionality & results. I absolutely adore this camera & hope to pass it down to my kids one day.
Gorgeous images. Your work and that camera are an extension to each other and it certainly shows. I recently grabbed a RB67 and I can't wait to compose some images with it.
Using mine since 2000. Also adapting the glass to gfx. Nice snaps.
Just pulled the trigger on one. Great video!
I had the Mamiya 7ii. Now I have the Fujifilm GSW690iii. Bigger negatives equally sharp!
Mamiya lenses are so amazing! Slight increase of regret at selling my Mamiya 6 after seeing these photos and browsing through my own archive again 😅. Either way, really appreciate the longer term thoughts on the camera!
Love my Mamiya 6!!
Well you made good investment with this camera.Prices now are crazy for Mamiya 7ii.
Incredible images, Sam!
forever grateful for sams youtube
Beautiful video Sam. Agreed it's not till you've really been with a camera a long time that you can really offer deep insights. And the primary deep insight always gets to intangibles. "It's an extension of me". I have a mamiya 6ii. It is my favourite camera, along with xpan. When I first got it, I think the extraordinary precision of the glass took some getting used to, having used TLRs etc. I mean, the workflow takes some getting used to too, right, which I think you're very honest about. I also still find I have to be very careful not to make thin negatives if the scene is even remotely backlit. Sometimes wish I had a 7, but I do love the folding lenses and use all 3 and also crop to 67 in post on occasion. Beautiful, timeless photography mate. Thank you
Love the images, stunning. I was surprised to see that most of your images were cropped to 6x6. Have you ever considered using a Mamiya6 instead?
nice long term review! I wanna try this as well even though hassy has been my go to landscape! thanks!
yayy let me know if you have extra days in Colorado. I can point you to some cool locations for shooting
Do you have a link to the metal shutter curtain release? I have the same problem
I was actually wondering how do you compose your image while using the rangefinder? As we see the lens through it. Do you make the focus and then slightly recompose to the right?
Awesome photos. Do you edit the images or is this straight out the camera!?
Very important, using the strap as it first version is totally wrong , by that you causing damage to the rewind mechanism as the camera goes up and down while you walking the lever suffers from micro movements which eventually brake it , you should hang the camera horizontally , that’s why they add this lug in the second version 🤘
Do you sell prints?
excellent works! are all pictures you take using 65mm?
Where does the Leica Q2 fit into your personal photography needs, alongside the Mamiya 7ii? Are both part of your daily camera carry? Or what drives that decision of which one to grab on your way out the door? Thanks Sam, great video. Inspiring stuff.
拍得真好
Hi Samuel,
Thank you for this good video and your shared feedback.
I've had a Mamiya 7 for a few months and I use it manually, but I had bad surprises with the spotmeter. As you say, he is very good but very sensitive. I have the impression that it is often used in A or AE mode, so that the speed is always well adapted. In manual, when you are between 2 speeds, the personal choice is not always the right one, in any case, for me, it is not always perfect;)
How do you generally use it? Manual or A?
Congratulations for your work
how do you use the 150mm? More for portraits or for flattening effect on scenes?
I’m wondering, do you also use this camera for commercial work?
Beautiful photographs btw!
I never have! Always for personal work
What type of car is that you have
Love your work man! Great review! I am very interested in the little brother of this camera, the Mamiya 6
Haven't shot anything since 2018 when i went to Banff.. is my Canon 5d mark iv still a good camera?
absolutely, still such a great camera.
Yep still use mine
Sam, which lenses do you recommend having for the mamiya, please suggest me three ti look Out for, I have super similar taste to you😘
65 and 150 are my favorites. I want the 80 tho!
Thankyou so much! I’m surprised you don’t have an 80 already actually
What Toyota do you have?
2021 4runner
“To me”
良く写るカメラですね。欲しい
Film grain...the flavour of digital user never tasted..
Another Samuel Elkins video, another gem
🙏🏼🙏🏼
I met you a long time ago at Joe Greers book signing. Such a nice dude and actually took some time to kick it.
Amazing shots...just wow :)
The next system on my list
Using mine since 2007, what an amazing piece. Loving it.
it would be great to see how you're organizing and storing all your gear, lol I know it's not the most exciting but im getting into the thick of it now with a Mamiya 7, RZ, Z7, 500CM, M6.. I should probably just stash it all in a pelican but I wanna keep em out a lot. Any tips?
Thanks for the idea! i'll def keep it in mind.
Amazing images, what film stocks do you use with this camera?
mainly portra 400 and 800, sometimes some HP5!
what aperture is your sweet spot for shooting portraits with the Mamiya 7 ? i noticed there is some vignetting at F4
Hi, Is it worth buying the Mamiya 7 II + 80mm f/4 £3500-£3800? User says it is immaculate. Is it too risky to buy as they are old. User says he bought it new in 2003. Is this camera recommended for portraits and travel?
amazing photos Sam ! thanks for sharing .
Nice shots, thank you for sharing.
unreal vid/pics man!
The Mamiya 7ii must be a real workhorse if it is in frequent usage.
It really is. Such a special camera
Hey how do you edit/colour grade your sit down videos? Do you use a lut or anything? 😍
If you want to sell the lut, I would buy it 🙃
Hey man, just got my Mamiya 7ii. Do you shoot in A mode or manual Shutter?
If it helps, I always shot mine in AEL instead of A mode.
That way I can meter the scene and recompose the frame without the meter constantly changing in A mode.
