Very confident that nobody has done a better job of A) describing the camera and format, B) showing it in action, and C) displaying actual results than you did right there. Absolutely first rate video.
Correction: 120 film isn’t actually 120mm, it’s just called 120 and with the 6x6 film back you will get 12 exposures per roll not 16 like I said in the video. Sorry for the confusion!
Actually, the 6x6 is 6x6cm. 6cm=60mm. 60+60=120 tada. 6x7 film back gives 10 exposures per 120 roll, 6x6 backs or cameras get 12 exposures, 6x4.5 vertical backs give 16 exposures. Oh, and for the record, medium format has LESS depth of field than comparable 35mm cameras. The larger the format, the less the apparent depth of field.
The first person not to complain "the rz is heavy" then proceed to take it outside and stroll around with it like its nothing! Oh and shoot some amazing photos! Subbed!
Great Great Video ! Really Laid back , easy on the eyes and ears ..... excellent pics ! ...... a tiny request to please add the EXIF data so we can learn from your art too .... take care ! Thanks again !
Really beautiful work Nick - lovely airy colours there! I've been loving my lightweight Mamiya 7 but you cant beat the close focus and shall depth of field of these bigger cameras
This was so nicely done! Loved the camera tour at the start and the eye level viewfinder add on edit - also that Windows XP fact drop. Great first video!
Great information! I had a question about rating your film one stop below box speed. Are you saying if I’m using portra 400 I should set my seconic light meter to 200 iso to retain a stronger shadow area
Really liked you video. I just purchased an RZ67 Pro II. I noticed in your intro montage that you film back was a 220. I assume you shoot 120 as 220 is no longer made. So how well does that work? I have been told by several people shooting 120 in a 220 back won't work well, even though the film itself is the same. The 220 does not have the paper backing on the whole roll, just a bit on each end. Looking forward to seeing more of your photography.
Hey Nick, Really Awesome video. 🌺 For future video suggestion, can you please tell us how you colour grade the muted look on Sam's channel & also camera gear 💙 #keepcreating 🌠
Marshall Marshall thanks for checking out the video 🤙🏻. Indeed I do. All depends on what you want to use the camera for. I mainly shoot portraits on the RZ because it’s a bit easier to focus. I use the Pentax for travel, landscape, and portraits as well. Both are all around great cameras. Despite the Pentax being a heavy big camera I don’t mind traveling with it, and it is a little easier to throw in a backpack/bag vs. the RZ. You can’t really go wrong with either camera.
Question! What do you use for scanning? D’you get them done at a lab or do you scan yourself? Flatbed? Drum scan? Loved the video, look forward to more from you!
Such a great vid! Subbed immediately :) Some corrections, though - with the 6x6 film back you get 12 shots, not 16. And the depth of field does not depend on anything else than the lens. The 90mm f3.5 lens has the exact same depth of field no matter whether you shoot it on 6x7 or micro 4/3 :) The other film backs give you different aspect ratios and a more cropped in image.
I'm pretty sure with the RZ67's 6x6 back you still only get 10 exposures, because of the wind on spacing. I had the square back and it was irritating to not be using the roll as efficiently as it could be.
Between the revolving back and the dark slide the RB/RZ variants are not ideal for hand held work. The reversed image/ waist level finder is counter-productive for me. At 5'9", competitive girls are my height or taller and all the competitive guys are taller so shooting waist level at standing subjects every image will essentially be 'up the nose' to some degree and that does not play.
One of the best videos on the Mamiya RZ67
Thanks!

Nice Job! This is one of best Photography video ever seen!
Gabriele Rech thanks so much!

The production value on this is nuts. `Great work.
Beautiful photos, where do you get them processed and scanned?
Thanks! Processed and scanned myself.
@@NickSpruck nice, spot on for the colors!
Herb Ritts and Annie Leibovitz made this camera popular in the 90’s
Dude this video is gorgeous. I can’t wait for more!
Great work man, hope to see more videos soon
The production quality on this video is next level! upload more!
Really beautiful work Nick - lovely airy colours there! I've been loving my lightweight Mamiya 7 but you cant beat the close focus and shall depth of field of these bigger cameras
Really amazing photos and even better video! Looking forward to watching more!
Thanks so much!

Oliver Lang thanks so much! More to come in the near future 🙂
Dude. So much heat for a first upload. Keep it up!
It would had been great if you'd mention what aperture and shutter speed you used for each image.
This is great...By the way,Which brand and model is the light meter U use on the video?
Thanks! It’s a sekonic L578
Great information!
I had a question about rating your film one stop below box speed. Are you saying if I’m using portra 400 I should set my seconic light meter to 200 iso to retain a stronger shadow area
Dope video, the shadow / highlight detail for film and digital was helpful for me.
Happy you got something out of it !
Nice work man!
I’ve been getting the medium format itch lately and your video is definitely making me want to start looking!
Gab-E you should 🙂 it’s a blast
Duuuuude that camera demo sequence 😍😍
Dude! Stop playing with us and give us more BTS/How to use this beast! This was one of the most informative videos on this camera that I have seen.
Great, very informative video Nick. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks!
really well done
How does a 6x7 negatives gives more depth of field?
Naw man, DOF depends on f-stop, not negative size. The 6x7 negative just gives you a shit ton more to work with.
How do you only have 650 subs man, great content! Keep em coming
just got recommended this video, good stuff man
Thanks dude!
Great video and work!! 👏
Juicy video, just need more of it!

My man, the edit is awesome, much luck in this project. Greetings from Cancún, México.

New TH-camr in town!!!!?????
The king himself!
Samuel Elkins thanks homie 🤙🏻
Good work. May I ask: Did you use Portra 100 or 400?
Christoph Sauer thanks! It was a mix of Portra 400 and 800
Doooooope! Quality is amazing, can’t wait to see more!
Michael Sasser thanks man!
unreal editing, like button smashed.Would be a sweet video to see what other film cameras you use or like shooting with and why.
Request processing. Thanks mah dude!
It's been 6 months! Where are you?
I know I will love your videos
The animations and photos in this are amazing. Subbed!
Thanks! 🙏🏻
Solid video man. I'l be back.
Nice editing. Did you use some motorized rig for the intro overview?
This is what we called quality content !
thanks!
Nice Sound Design!!!!😍
More depth of field or more shallow depth of field ?
No suggestion BUT this was a great video! Keep making more
I appreciate the kind words, thanks!
dayumm he said production quality!!
Loved this video! Excited to see future content from ya :)
Yo what was that sick beat in the outro?
Great video dude!
Thanks a lot!
Cool video man!
this is sick! What lens are you using for the shots you're showcasing?
Thanks! It’s the 90mm f3.5 🙂
Amazing video man, seems to be going well off of just one video ! :)
edit on point! Before your channel blow up, im here before you reach 1m subs
Woahkin Dela Cruz haha thanks man! 🙏🏻
Great job.
Looking forward to more vids!!! 🤙🏼
Wow so good Nick, make more film related vids 👌🏽
David Tadros absolutely! Working on a street photography vid with the Leica M6. Thanks!
Great content!!!!
What focus screen are you using on the camera? I'm having such difficulty with the RB67 with sharp focus.
Rad video dude
nice vdeo Nick! what lens do you use for portrait?
Peng Chen thanks! I have the 90mm f3.5, great lens!
@@NickSpruck The 90mm is a great lens. However, for head & shoulder portraits, you should try the 150mm soft focus or the 180mm.
nailed this my dude!
Hey Nick,
Really Awesome video. 🌺
For future video suggestion, can you please tell us how you colour grade the muted look on Sam's channel & also camera gear 💙
#keepcreating 🌠
can't wait to be able to say "Here since 1k" when your channel has hundreds of thousands of subs
Arthur B that means a lot, thanks man!
keep it going plz
Saw you on insta...Do you Still shoot Pentax67? Which would you recommend?

Thanks so much! I self develop and scan from home using an epson v850 pro flatbed scanner with lomography digitaliza film holders
@@NickSpruck What are "lomography digitaliza film holders" and how are they better than the film holders that come with the Epson scanner?

Wow Eminem has started doing photography with film cameras!
Freaking dope intro! New subscriber!!
Thanks!
I stopped by for the photo work, which was great by the way. But I must add I love your voice. You should definitely try some voice work.
@4:30 I just learned something new ahah Love the video man keep it coming!
TwoATraay happy to hear you got something out of it, more on the way!
