6:04 Aren't we all??
I’ll have two number 9s, a number 9 large, a number 6 with extra dip, a number 7, two number 45s, one with cheese, and a large soda.
Sweet Lou Photography Oh man, check out special agent Big Smoke!!
Would’ve never guessed that pictures change cast based on the temperature theyre shot at. Oddly enough, a lot of my pictures either come out with a purple cast on a normal exposure, and dark green when underexposed.
Chemistry is so weird
I’m sad about the groundhog.... warn me next time
we're all sad about that groundhog, sorry
i youtube it after and saw it omg sad
Great tips, man. And I'm also loving your humor. From a fellow photographer creator to another... great job! New fan over here - I'm also a polaroid lover myself!
Thanks for the kind words!! I'm going to hop on over to your channel. Cheers!
Also apparently you’re *not* supposed to shake them once they come out
Yep, that hasn't been a thing for a while. Big fake news coming from Outkast
That was for peel apart.
Jesus i'm SAD. the camera and the films are so sensitive (?). I bought this camera and 3 packs of film and i don't use it much because in my country is SO EXPENSIVE, and even buying it on USA was very expensive and i find out that the films should't be inside the camera for long and that the packs expire after one year.
that portuguese beer ahahahahah really cool video, i have a new polaroid camera and it really helped
It's myyyyy faaaavvvvvoooorrrrrriiiiitttttteeeee beer. And good luck with the new camera, hope you enjoy it. And I'm happy to help
@@SweetLouPhotography ahah I also noticed!! I am wondering where are you from? Thank you for the polaroid tips :)
Dude…you seriously CRACKED ME UP. Holy smokes, you’re a natural comedian. Laughed my ass off the entire video.
Came for some tips, left with a new channel subscription. Keep doing your thing man, I love it!
Thanks so much! Welcome aboard ;)
Man... this editing is amazing, top-notch, I love it
Thanks so much, glad you dig what I'm doing
It’s not too bad when it’s hot because the red effect is quite good looking
Indeed
THIS IS QUALITY! THIS ENTIRE VIDEO IS QUA- LEE- TEA. i enjoyed.
so glad you dig it:)
Thanks for the roller cleaning tip! I hadn't heard of this and thought my camera might be faulty when I saw the blue marks on a few photos. :)
So, yeah, a few years behind but here I am, getting all knowledgeable and stuff. I’ll be lurking in your archives for a while. Thanks for the pointers!
I'm getting into photography and was thinking about trying the Polaroid relm but this makes me wanna stick with my dslr. I can change my settings and I don't have to worry about temperature with it as far as I know
Iittttitititittitttititititittitittititititititititiuuu
I bought the camera today and was very, very disappointed. Very poor film quality. A half-century has passed since the Polaroid was on the market. Surprised that they couldn't do better than this.
Why thank you so much!
I was gonna go make some winter pictures today! And so glad I watched this before hand
Dude I came into this video knowing nothing of cameras, photography, or anything really in this field. But the last thing I was expecting was laughing my ass off at the funny little side remarks and witty jokes😂 Got to learn something new and had a good laugh, def worthy of a sub. Good stuff!!
pls keep making videos da been looking for a channel like this for a while :)
Really means a ton to me, thanks so much.
I really love this video. Didn't want it to end. I'm getting a Polaroid Now I-Type yellow tomorrow and i think i'm ready!
Thanks so much!! Congrats, and best of luck with the camera and film
Thanks for making this video!! I took two pictures today on my polaroid I-type, but they came out pretty red. It was about 87 degrees F today and I put the pics in my bag after I took them. None of the beautiful color they could've captured turned out :((( That won't happen again though! :>
Definitely gonna store my polaroids in my ass next time i go shooting! hahaha
For real though, I've not shot my Polaroid camera in a while and its just collecting dust. I guess this video is a sign that I should go shoot my B&W film pack now? Great video dude.
You should go shooting!! Show me what you do :) and thanks as always bud
Literally the perfect video to fixing all my problems
oh man so glad i checked this video out. i leave to nyc tomorrow and its in the low 30's - good to know about keeping entire camera near body to help develop film. thanks!
RIP ground hog
Yeah, New York just hasn't been the same since then
Probably a stupid question but can you put them back in the fridge if you swap out the film halfway through? I’ve been doing this and I’m not sure if it has a big affect
SoooOOooOO helpful. Thank you!
No prob, happy to help. And even better if it saves people a few bucks haha
And today I learned I was doing it all wrong. Which is comforting cause maybe my photos will stop turning out awful
Nice video actually a little funny without being cheesy, oh also informative and helpful :)
moisture
As a Portuguese, I subbed as soon as I seen the Super Bock. 😆
I visited Portugal when I was in college, it's the best, and Bock is one of my favorite beers hahah
Me: Casually adhding over polaroid fotos.
TH-camr: Casually pulls a super bock out.
Me: Olha olha o galego 😂
You have a fucking great sense of humor. Found this video informative and entertaining!!
I've actually never shot poloroids :(
It definitely is a ton of fun, but an expensive hobby for sure haha
protip, if you want to, look into the various kinds of instax cameras and film, way cheaper, way more reliable and also you don't have o do all the crap he said with polaroid originals film, it can be stored @ room temp and just all you have to do is set your camera, shoot and it just friggen works
Def dude! I reviewed the Instax Wide and the Mini 9 in the past- love those cameras. I'm working witht he SQ6 now too.
Thank you so much!!! I'm subscribing, you really are good
Love this video thank you for this😂🤙
I keep getting a water fall effect right in the centre and sometimes in a concave shape near the corners !
So helpful!!! Thanks for this!!
You're great! Thanks for the info and laughs.
Came here just for the tips... guess i will stay for more tips and JOKES 😏
glad you dig what I'm doing here haha
My Polaroid 600 came with its old Manuel and in the manual they said to make sure the photo is above 55 degrees. I didn’t know why until now.
San Andreas has to follow me everywhere, doesn't it?
Subscribing because I saw Super Bock :) Thanks for the video, I've been doing it all wrong.
super bock is my favorite beer :) :) :)
3:52 IT WORKS! Thanks, Lou!
I’m failing school so I can’t get photography as a class for my senior year ;-; but I still want to be a photographer, any tips on how I can do that?
Hang in there. In terms of being a photographer, the best way to get there is to practice. To me it's an ongoing process. You get better every time you go out and do it. That's why I started making those crapshoot videos on my channel. It helps me get out there and develop my process. Don't get stressed over gear at first. New cameras are fun, but anything works- a phone, an old digital camera, film. ANYTHING. As long as you are making photos all the time. That's my best advice. And super important-- have fun with it. Love the process, love what you do, and you'll keep doing it with ease. Hope that helps.
Any tips as to why my pictures with no flash come out underexposed even tho it was shot in a well lit room?
Just always use flash lol
Also make sure you are far enough/close enough to your subject and your exposure slider (if you’ve got one) is adjusted appropriately
Just got a polaroid onestep+, it was cheaper than the Now. Although I don't own a smartphone, hopefully I can use the camera without Bluetooth!
thanks mate!
nice vid
Well that’s good news on the dates. I thought the ones at the store where expired
I loved this 😂
haha thanks bud
is it ok to put the photo in an envelope and then put it into a pocket? i guess if there is contact between the actual photo and the inside of your jean photo , then the inside of an envelope is ok, right? as it pertains to the cold. LMK and thanks in advance
super useful tips!!
Great video, thanks a lot! :)
POLAROID 📸🔥🔥🔥🔥
i very much enjoy this video lol you’re a funny guy
Hey, Vsauce! Sweet Lou here!
I followed the damn train from france and it takes me to your video, but keeping the photo under my armpit in summer while I was not wearing something was one of the worst idea I had.... :(
What happened to your armpit??
MOIST ^^
Love your humor😂😂😂😂
So I took a couple test shots on my car who was sun bathing and they came out out of focus? Is there a minimal focus range? I can’t find anyone talking about it.
Yes letting them bake in the car can lead to messed up develops-- check out their article about temperatures. support.polaroid.com/hc/en-us/articles/115012519828-How-to-get-the-most-out-of-Polaroid-Originals-film Regarding focus, yes the cameras have minimum focusing distances. Too close will likely end up out of focus. I've never personally had a bad develop make a photo look like it's out of focus, just affects the colors/exposure.
2:54 SUPERBOCK C@ralho 🙏
I just got a one step plus and every time I take colored photos without flash they come out dark
Do you guys recommend the new polaroid now plus? Because i want to buy one this summer and i need help ;c, it's gonna be my first polaroid camera and maybe 120 I type film because i'm from Chile and the extra is so much money.
The date on the side isn't an expiration date? Wow, I told the lady at Walmart that the only pack was 3 months out of date and I asked if I could get a discount and she said no and proceeded to pull the rest of the "expired" film off the shelves so they get their money back.
Whoops
this dudes under rated
lmao
What if you do put it in the fridge and use that film on a hot sunny day ?
Polaroid pro ready for business 1:57
Hahaha that shit was so over the top for no reason haha
I’ve got like 3-4 dots lined on my pictures, any help or info to avoid this weird dotted smudge on pictures??
Can you show me what you mean? DM me on instagram or something?
Sweet Lou Photography what’s your Instagram?
@@DeadboyClique It's Sweet Lou Photography, lol.
seeing the spectra film made me sad today
this is quality
Ugh I live in australia and am gonna take pics this week. It is hot and humid. Crap
Super bock is made in my home town 💗 best beer and super cheap
I looooooove Super Bock. Had it while I was in Portugal back in 2012, it was the beer that got me into beer.
😭the groundhog LMFAO
forever in our hearts
Haha love the humor 😂
Thankssssss
Super Bock ? Nice beer ? I had no idea they were sold in outside Portugal
Although I'm not interested in polaroids or polka AI typing suggestion) I like your videos
Polkaroids bro hahahahaha. Thanks as always
Superbock , és Tuga , conseguimo nos distinguir uns dos outros pela cerveja .
Damn, Super Bock
Lol funny narrating. My type of humor and you seem like a great guy. We would be good friends Im sure and you even drink our portuguese beer. Nice ;)
Thank you so much!! Super Bock is my absolute favorite
How do you like the one step 2? I just got the now but was thinking of swapping, also nice coheed merch!
We are one among the fence. I actually did a review of the One Step 2 (th-cam.com/video/vf4gkPdLUqc/w-d-xo.html) and the One Step Plus (th-cam.com/video/Pmv6Z1LOt70/w-d-xo.html) Polaroid Now review coming soon(ish) Hope those vids help!!
I don't care about polaroids but your story telling and tutorial made me hit that subscribtion button
That really means a ton to me, thank you so much.
7th Tip: look upon 1⭐ Amazon reviews for both Original camera and 600 films
Will this all work with just a one step?
Idk why but my photos from Polaroid lab always turn out to be very yellowish...(the film I bought is the 600 one in the blue box)
I haven't been able to test one myself- I asked Polaroid to loan me one, but I don't think they like me lol. I have noticed that many of their films have a warmer tone nowadays (specially the originals, not the i-type)
One day i hope to get a polroid SX70 autofocus and take some pretty nice shots of nature and other stuff I feel like taking a picture of. Tho my next plan of action is getting an instax wide for some good group shots and nature shots. Tho i will say my Sq6 using the instax sqaure flim has been mostly positive results haven't had to many complaints with how it turns out. The only issue i do have is fiinding the flim in a store even target at least ones closer to where I live never had them in stock. Like i said on Instagram had to go out of town to some random best buy just to find one twin pack siting on the shelf. So my future flim shopping will Probably be buying it in bulk online.
Yeah finding the Square film locally is a pain for me too. I do like the Square a ton though. And I have soooo much to say about how much I enjoy the Instax Wide. Such a fun camera!
@@SweetLouPhotography yeah i love instant photography
Ur videos are comedy dawg 🤣🤣
Hey, InstantFilmSauce! Sweet Lou here. What is instant film?
Bro I been thinking what about throwing them on a lil heating pad lol. I know maybe it would only work at home setting but yeah haha
Thanks!!!
no prob!
Man, I have been using my hard cloth ... maybe that's why I have odd results!!! My biggest issue is the color stuff is not as good as the B&W stuff as far as contarst and tonality!!!
Have you tried ordering directly from Polaroid? I've had better results going that route rather than Amazon or buying from a store like Target or Best Buy. Hope that helps!! Seems like the 2020 formula of polaroid film has been more reliable and consistent than the last few years
@@SweetLouPhotography I do order directly, gotta get those points!!! I agree the 2020 color is better, but still not as good as i feel it should be.
I came for the info and stayed for the jokes
This is to much work/complication just for a photo. I have a Polaroid camera I just leave my film in my closet till I need it. My photos usually come out pretty good.
SUPER BOCK
My favorite beer!!
@@SweetLouPhotography Glad you enjoy a portuguese beer ! :)
THE HARD CLOTH JOKE AHAHAHAHHAHA
bjr je cherche ce film 600 pour mon camera si vous avez une idee du point de vente a montreal faites le moi savoir
12 months after production date… so isn’t that the expiration date
No one-step plus review?
I've been working on one in the background. Definitely will have it up in the next month or so
@@SweetLouPhotography awesome. I really want to buy one but there's no good reviews out there so would you recommend it?
0:42 lmao
5:16 Then why shoot Polaroid? Instax is 100 times more reliable. Love your videos, though, you've got me on a binge!
This vid is also two years old-- I will say their chemistry is far more reliable now than it was when I made this video. For me it's the cameras, I just prefer the look and feel of the Polaroid cameras over the Instax. That's not to say Fuji doesn't make cool cameras or reliable (and cheaper!!!) film, but Polaroid just reels me in with their designs lol. I'm also quite fond of the Lomography Lomo Instant cameras. Those are lovely. Thanks for binge watching!! :)
It's that a ducking super bock
Portuguese beer? ahahah cheers!
Super Bock is the absolute best beer. It's hard to find here though!!!!
Super bock 🍻💪
best beer!!!
I watched your video on speed 2x and its still slow, how slow do talk 😅 sorry
