Beautiful work, Josh! Just shot my first rolls of Gold in 120, and it was actually on a portrait shoot as well. Can't wait to check the results! Thanks for sharing!
Love it! Thanks for your comment bro. It's a fun film to use. I think in the 120 formats it does give you a lot more than the 35mm in terms of processing and latitude. I've been trying it in lots of different settings and have been pushing it a fair bit and pretty happy with the results.
Lovely content bro, beautiful pictures!! Just wanted to know how you get your settings correct, do you use a light mater or have mastered how to setup your camera?
Thanks man. Haha I use a light meter on my iPhone. It’s relatively accurate and I just meter it so I’m 1 stop overexposed. So for the Gold I metered for 100 box speed.
You have a beautiful model that has a high fashion look. Splash her with some dramatic lighting and you can get some great high fashion looks! Enjoyed the video!
Fun to see you do this shoot. The title is a bit misleading as your shots do not include difficult settings. Accuracy of color is difficult to check on a TV or non-calibrated computer monitor. Gold is a non pretentious general use film.The average pro is only going to use this for serious work because the price is right! I cannot see using this film doing a wedding or well paid fashion shoot. In both cases highlight and shadows as well as pantone accuracy is non existent. Just an example, the Lapis Blue of Pepsi labels cannot be reproduced. I had to deal with that 40 years ago and nearly lost the account until I did some serious investigating in color reproduction. Well, Kodak had special film as well as quite a few publications on the matter. Of course as no professional would shoot film it may for any of this it no longer matter. As far as the film goes, it is a means to an end and at that it is very useful to still have this for the last larger format film enthusiast. It is easily scanned and it does have a wide dynamic range but for printing on ordinary color (wet process) it has too much concentration and saturation. Happy to see there is still film available for sooo many of. Retired Professional photographer and Lab owner.
Just a bunch of blabbering 😂 Photos look great! The film can definitely be used in a “professional” setting. The title was spot on, I can see these photos being turned over to a client and them being ecstatic.
Blabbering to you but the science of film making precedes the user’s actual results. Knowing why a specialty film was created can help you choose the right film for the right project. Every day picture taking is fairly simple but delivering a professional result is way more than than thrilling customers that have little idea it could have been much better colour or lighting or cropping or time of day and a host of other details. The photographer that knows his stuff is asking thousands of dollars for a day shoot. He/she cannot afford “not knowing” what he is shooting on. My magazine clients often specified the film they wanted me to shoot on. Pictures to that magazine all need to be scanned for (sometimes weekly) magazine printing. Films all scan differently and knowing predictably saves production time. A far cry from the photographer shooting “pretty pictures”! So, you are not wrong that it sounds like blabbering. My clients do not need to know about a long toe film or a 5 stop dynamic range. It is all blabbering and they hire us to be the knowledgeable provider. Finally, can you shoot 6 rolls of 35mm slides that are to be sent to New York unprocessed? A front page for (let’s say) Ford Magazine that needs to be published 4 days from now? Just blabbering, so sorry.
@@rinusborg If your client specifically asked you to use a certain film then you use that film. The title suggest if a client doesn't then Kodak gold could be used. You're typing way too much for a TH-cam comment, go to a forum.

that last setting was magic. especially that.
Nice work dude!

Stunning photos and color, incredible model
These images are amazing! I wasn't sure about Gold 120 but now that I've seen it I wanna give it a try.
Always worth giving it a go! It's been fun to shoot with, even with everyday life things.
Really surprised to see you only had 28 subs so far and the video was great. New sub my man hope you keep it up
Thank you, my man! Much appreciated!

Nice work man, loved this video! Very anxious to receive back my first rolls of Gold 120 soon 😬
Thanks, Sabine! Oooh I’m excited for you! Hopefully they slap!
Thanks for sharing. I love the colors. However, some photos doesn't seem like they're in focus like 6:16, 7:37. Any thoughts?

Appreciate your insight! Learned a lot from that, I'll keep it in mind with future videos on your feedback, too. Thank you, Rinus!
