Peak design tripod holding on for dear life
absolutely fighting for its gd life the entire time 😂
@@linusandhiscamera When you mount the body to the lens, rotate it 45 degrees and you can mount it with the tripod plate facing "down" for vertical shots. That way, you won't have you lean the tripod head sideways. The YT channel Michael Carter posted a good video about the lens 7 years ago.
What a compact pocketable setup!
That lens is my daily driver for street photography in London.
that's awesome
Holy cow, that lens makes for gorgeous portraits!!
right!!
Film shooters discovering telephoto lenses :)
400mm converts to about 200mm in 35mm, which is very common in the digital world, and was in the film world as well.
Can you give a bit of detail into what calculations you’re using to turn a 400 into a 200? Later edit: Oh, I see now, I read about the Pentax 6x7. Now I understand what you said.
@@blkbird A squared + B squared = C squared :)
God I would love to see wildlife captured with film, that would be sick
@@arrebarre They used to do it all the time until just a few years ago.
His photos are beautiful but yeah when he’s shooting at f8 he’s basically just shooting a 70-200 f4 at 200 haha
This is wild! Amazing shots 🙌
It can be really difficult nailing critical focus on these longer lenses since the thing you’re trying to focus can be so small on your focusing screen. Whenever I’m shooting the 150 or longer wide open I always use the little flip up magnifying eye piece and it makes landing focus so much easier! Sometimes use it on the 105 as well when I’m shooting wide open.
Stunning photos and model, you absolutely captured the rich tones of her skin in the sunlight 11/10 as always sir!
2 in the morning in Japan and all I can think about now is testing my Zenzanon 100-220 lens.
Great video as always! I always feel like I learn more about posing, composition, and usage of lighting!
aw i’m dying to visit japan! thank you for watching!!
Great video! Loved the results!!!
Great set of photographs. The result is almost similar to my Pentax K 200mm f2.5 😊
that compression even at f8! 😍
It's very cool that you clarified "film photography lens" in the title, cause this doesn't even touch the level of weird you get in projection lenses and other adapted/modified lenses that can go on a P67 :D Great video anyway, what a beast lens!
been meaning to make a video on a imax lens on the pentax w a tilt shift bellows!
@@linusandhiscamera(do this)
@@linusandhiscamera do it man! There's so many cool Schneider and ISCO, Meopta, or Kollmorgen, or Bausch/Lomb lenses on the market, we are spoilt for choice now! And you can also pick between the well corrected multi element Cinelux lenses and older technologies like ISCO Kiptar (petzval design) and Super-Kiptar (planar design) and the daddy of all bokehlicious lenses - the Aero Ektar 178/2.5 (also planar) which can cover up to 5x5" so on a Pentax 67 you can do some crazy tilting/swinging with it :)
@@linusandhiscamerawould love to see this! Do it.
200mm is as far as I went on the Pentax 67 and it is a glorious lens. It’s a big lens and one of my lesser used ones. But it allows for a longer reach which is useful at weddings and really useful when trying to photograph landscapes from far away. I took some shots in Iceland with it and am waiting to get home to develop them now
Love this and as a sports photographer, so much can be done with a big lens and portraits! Think this is about 200mm equiv and it's so good!! Beautiful images sir.
yes! and thank you!
This opens up so much opportunity for GAS…
i- small megaphone
ii - drone carried lightmeter
iii - T6-2X teleconverter because 400 not big enough!!!
iv - the one serious suggestion; the “Chimney” viewfinder. Much much bigger image to nail your focus on
Another awesome and super fun vid. Utterly love your vibe Linus.
man these look phenomenal. Everytime you zoomed in to show more detail, it just looked crazy. Usually when you get compression this strong, the depth of field looks usually too narrow. But here you get the compression but without that annoying shallow DOF, so the entire thing just look expansive as hell.
What lens even is this?
I have one of those lenses, I really need to find a moment to test it.
Regarding the light leak, the fact that it's at the end of the roll and transversally leads me to think that the roll was not tight when it was removed from the camera. The cinestill fill doesn't have anti-halation layer, if the light hits the side of the film it's pipeline to the interior like an optical fiber. It's recommended for these films, no matter the format, to be manipulated in shadow or lower light and a bit more careful.
Really nice and interesting video.
Gorgeous shoot, great model. You deserve way more views 🤌
already know this video will be good, those old pentaxes are insane
they’re so crazy!
I ❤ these! Nice lens!
I've been eyeing one for the longest time now, so this came in the perfect time!
It gives something completely different to the 90 2.8 and 165 2.8 for the P67 system.
completely different! the 90 2.8 is my go-to
wow she looks amazing at 400mm f4, also the flares at the very end might be caused by light going into your eye piece and going through those seals on the viewfinder
Damn bro this is crazy badass
In full frame looks is around 200mm f/2.0, which cost quite a fortune for both Nikon F/Canon EF mount.
Carrying that in my bag would break my back 😂
yes it would
how the tripod didnt flip over will forever blow my mind
Just a heads up, I've had light leaks on the first/last frames of many rolls of Cinestill. Must happen during the respooling process.
first portrait is insane
These images came out crazy good but I cannot imagine having to carry that lens around on my Pentax 6x7 😂
it’s not worth it lmfaooo
Fantastic images. Love that lens! (Other than having to carry it)
thank you! i completely agree.
I have a lens like that for my manual canon cameras. Stop down? F4 is an open stop of light not a stop down loss of light. And yes I would open it up to f4 or more from that far away. And no cable release using a tripod?
Really cool photos. I rly should do something similar with my Rolleiflex SL66 and 250mm Zeiss lens.
you gotta, that sounds crazy! always wanted an sl66 for the tilt shift capabilities
What a rad lens and some amazing shots!
thank you!!
Linus can you do a low light concert photography video next time youre out on tour? Im trying to find respurces on black and white film and high iso and all, and there really isnt a ton! Your videos are crucial 😎
high stakes music got me tense
Gorgeous work, what a Whopper of a lens...
There's so much compression that the first photo looked photoshopped lol like she was cut out form other picture and paste it in front of that background
😂😂 i see what you mean
Do you think the vibration of the mirror could induce motion blur with such a long lens?
I just got a copy of the 6x7 500mm F5.6! It's huge and the DoF is unreal
omfg 500mm??? wow
@@linusandhiscamera it looks like a machine gun on a tripod 😂
Quick question, if the film is a bigger size are images more sharp and better than say a regular 35mm roll of film or is it just dependent on what film stock it is? Thanks! Love the video as always ❤️
Bigger film has more room for detail. Situations will vary, but you should always get a "better picture" from medium format, its just a matter of how much better vs cost of film and ease of use.
Yes! 35mm is physically a smaller film, and because of that is not capable of the same resolution, detail, or sharpness as medium format film is. But 35mm can still be quite sharp depending on the lens and scanning method 🤍🤍
@@linusandhiscamera ohhhh okay, thank you, that's what I was thinking, cause I was comparing it to how digital cameras have different sized sensors and was wondering if it was basically the same with film, but I appreciate it the answers 😁
Cable release!
next time i'll bring one lol
Beautiful
thank you!!
Her reaction 1:07
too good 😂
the compression is wild , i wonder how the 200mm and 300mm render...
i had a 200mm for a while! so small by comparison but it never worked
coldest out
press a little button and it park itself
great video!
wonder if you can shoot F1 with this lens....
thank you!!
wowowowwow...
let's goooo
🥳🥳🥳
Waaaaaaaaaauuuu!!!
😂😂
Cool. I have a 1200mm ;)
I mean, its like pretty average in size. Like nothing too crazy...
but how is this lens for street photography? 😆
bokeh
It’s roughly 200mm as 35mm equivalent which is not unheard of to shoot portraits with. Why talk about it like some crazy never before seen thing lol. Is it just because it’s so big? Canon used to make a 200/2 that people would shoot portraits with and would give similar effects. Lovely images for sure, but I’m not sure if I understand your bewilderment here
