      Yeah, I've been shooting basically nothing but HP5 pushed to 1600 for months now. While I'm maybe reaching the point of grain overdose with it, I know shooting at anything below 800 basically means I can't shoot for 90% of the next six months.

    As far as I'm concerned, HP5 is a 1600 iso film with a typo on the box, and the world is now divided into two groups of people, those who saw Dune properly in the cinema, and those who waited for it to be streamed, and will regret it for the rest of their miserable lives.

      I saw Dune the day before it came out in theatres. I would've had to wait another day to see it otherwise. :) It also streamed in Dolby Atmos, Dolby Vision, and at 4K so it was better than theatres (with the right setup). I could pause, put subtitles on, rewind, repeat, and most importantly, not wear a mask!

    I've been rescanning a bunch of negatives that have survived since the early 1970s (yes, I am unconscionably old). I came across a page of Ektachrome 100 pushed to 1600. I remember taking the photos, and that the film was pushed to 1600, but I have no memory of how they were processed. You might want to try it.

    Being that I shoot mostly indoor stuff of my family, pushed HP5 is my jam. That said, it pushes even better in 120. I tend to like 35mm HP5 +1, and 120 HP5 +2 or 3.

    • @wrtlprmpft2

    Thanks man. I stepped into a camera shop today for the first time in a long time, they had rolls of this sitting by the till and it caught my eye; as did this video appearing from nowhere in my feed 6 hours later... I'd forgotten how free the experience is - digital always feels to me like I need a subject and for that reason I don't shoot a lot these days. Film is a canvas in of itself.
    Nice images. Thanks.

    I thought Dune was great Jason, was definitely the Mamiya 7ii of Sci Fi Movies as of late. Can’t wait for the second one in 2023. That is if the rapidly approaching heat death of the universe doesn’t end us all, or until Fuji finds some way to discontinue that as well.

    Having shot exclusively HP5 at the start of my film journey (because my school had it for free), I can't help but feel that HP5 has become a little boring at box speed, and have preferred Retro400S, Bergger Pancro, and Fomapan 400 for that speed. However, HP5 at 800, oh boy what an experience, it just have so much character.

    Definitely adds another tool to my arsenal.

Now starting my own development I can now push film. Great video as always

  • @AWrenOutdoors
    @AWrenOutdoors 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I have not pushed HP5 (yet, I've got rolls in the fridge awaiting my amateur caress), but I have become addicted to OG Acros 100 pushed 2 stops with a deep orange filter. It's deliciously grainy and contrasty, and completely opposes what box speed stood for (grainless and boringly balanced mids).
    Insofar as Dune, it's also on the list.
