As a fan of Ektar100, I would love to see a video about why you hate it. Actually I think my favorite part of this channel is when you low-key hate on things.
2006-the last year of 100T- the same year I pushed all the Canon - F1n, Ftb, 24, 35, 50, 85, 70-210 across the table at Adorama and got a 6mp Canon 10d and 17-40L back (I probably had to pay also). But then I went out and photographed at night, similarly, and loved the freedom of being able to change ISO whenever I wanted and not always having the wrong film in the camera. And not having to fight cheap-ass scanners. 10 years after that I got a Flextight X1, and for brief moment nirvana- but then the workload of shooting film, scanning and the fact that no jobs would wait that long meant that it became a 7k desk sculpture. So now that is gone too, but damn if I didn't just buy a few rolls of 400portra for an old minolta X700 and Canon EOS 1n. Appreciate the channel.

Here's a trick to avoid tripod movement when using a lightweight camera: tie your backpack to the tripod column. This is part of the secret. Also, use the longest cable release you can and if possible lock the mirror up.
The feeling you get when every photography video you watch has squarespace ads and when you go to sign up you don't use any of their codes because you're sick of hearing them talk about it. Yeah that's right I'm being that guy rn and you love it
The real reason for 3200K Tungsten films is for portrait use with hot lights. I expect it was discontinued because almost no one was still using tungsten in portrait studios.
Great video! Glad to see some great examples of Portra 100T. One thing to note about exposure times, if you look at the data sheet for this film + other low ISO tungsten films (Kodak Portra 100T, Fuji 64T, Kodak Ektachrome 64T etc) they are designed to be shot at slower shutter speeds. This film in particular says it was designed for exposures between 1/1000 and 120 seconds in tungsten light, thus you didn't really need to account for reciprocity. That's what I love about these films, great for long exposure night shots. Obviously since it's expired though there's still some roll of the dice to get a proper exposure.
Oh wow I recognize a lot of the spots you shot at in Burbank, really interesting to see where you were able to find compositions worth shooting in places I’ve walked by hundreds of times. The Borrmann Steel shot especially got me.
Yo Jason, I got my first 35mm camera a month ago and I just got my first roll developed and scanned the other day. Shoutout to your addicting content for getting me into another expensive hobby. I've lost so much time and money thanks to you, and for that I say thank you.
@@someonewithsomename my parents think that having a fruit drawer in the fridge is more important than having a film drawer. I tried to explain how ridiculous they sound but they just wouldn't get it. I'll have to buy a mini fridge for my film I guess. Idk where ill get that money tho 😕
Been shooting film for 2 years now... you don't really need a fridge, nor buying a ton of film. Just buy a couple of rolls a month and get the best pictures you can. It's better for your photography, your wallet, and the evironment.
@@peskymacaw9033 nope. Shooting film is bad for the environment. Period. Buying a lot of film at once is usually good for your wallet. Shooting a lot is good for your photography. So I really don't see your point.
Love the channel. Quotes like, "Like how my nipples are hard after I watch the notebook", and, "Don't bump the tripod Baxter, or you'll be going back to the pound", are the reason I keep watching.
Now that's a name I've not heard in a long time! Around 10 years ago when I was just beginning I randomly got one roll of this stuff and without knowing much I wasted it on whatever without making any use of its tungsten nature. Good times.
@9:26 - You did Projection Mapping with that film shot? Holy cow...You somehow nailed the far back plane with the office. Lots of stamp tooling, I guess... insane!
Jason is wearing a mask at night, outdoors, with the streets empty? Mask or no mask, thanks for this video. I'm glad he is finally making that sweet Squarespace money. He can finally afford to buy a Leica now.
So calculation was 10^1.3 ?Is the Power of 1.3 a solid number for color film? It's insane. a 69sec exposure becomes 4 minutes? Hot damn! Sounds to me like a blown out image.... This is the calculation also for fresh color film? ^1.3?
Dang, can't believe some of the shots you got with an AE-1 and expired film. Well done dude. Also saw that you were wearing Adidas Sambas...into soccer back in the day?
Also you’ve got to shoot Portra 800 man! It’s got the nice Portra colors but a bit more earthy and considerably less grain than CineStill 800T. 800T has my favorite colors out of any film. But Portra 800’s colors are really nice and the film actually meats 800 ASA. While 800T sits still squarely 500 ASA. Portra 800 has actually enough latitude that you can shoot it at 1600 without pushing it and still get nice results.
9/10 no gas stations
7.8/10
Too much grain

grrr that would great
I think Jason hates Ektar for it's over sarurated tonezz. And makes people look sunburn
But i love Ektar love those saturated tones
@@danielezaninotto4607 It’s like Velvia, we shoot it for those sweet, saturated colors.
@@danielezaninotto4607 it’s definitely not a great portrait film.
Thought the neon sign said “salami” at first glance.

Ah yes, the salami inn
LA + December = Sweatshirt inside + T shirt outside
*Now I finally understand reciprocity*

Damn Jason finally got a Squarespace sponsorship. That's how you know he's making it big.

love.
it’s what makes a subaru a subaru
those pictures are like a memory
I’m glad I’m not the only one who LIKES grainy photos.
It's as much nostalgia (I'm Old) as it is a return to film but I lke your work. It's the atmosphere that does it for me.
Humorous commentary + nice pictures = very reciprocal vid. Thanks!
Jeeez, so self-deprecating... I LOVE IT
The appliances at 4:49! Holy cow that's a cool image. Great framing, lighting and it is just so out of the era.
„2001 was a good 20 years ago“ LOL. Why did I think that was some sort of joke?! 😭😭 Time is weird.
Anyways, great vid. :)
I like the buzz on the neon close ups, nice attention to detail
never knew this existed, thought from your title you overexposed a cinestill800 by 3 stops
Legitimately solid film photography specific content from somebody who is genuinely hilarious. You’ve been getting better and better, subscribed.
You made a sponsorship joke in the beginning of your Canon Ae-1 video. And now you do have a sponsored video shooting with Ae-1.
What a journey.
I live for this dude’s dry humour
The refrigerators shot is my favorite. I am pretty amazed at the detail and color! Really beautiful.

Thanks for always giving me fresh eyes on places I go to shoot often. Makes me see LA differently.
this was very satisfying. in a satisfying way.
Man both pictures from our favorite pool gave me the chills, absolutely stunning work Jason, and even better vibes, as always.
"I'm gonna go throw up" Jason you never fail to make me laugh!!!
Big fan of you and Caleb syncing your TH-cam upload schedules.
69 to 246 seconds and 420 to 2572 seconds are def useful to remember offhand. Thanks!

I'd recommend the Fuji T64 as well, in the blue hour it sings.
I think these are beautiful images Jason! I need to get out & run out my Ilford XP2 Super 400 Monochrome!
Man lil jon teaching us all about film photography
Great work!! I'd need to be strapped to do this around my town.
The white backdrop on your photos completely burns my eyes when I'm watching your videos in my closet in complete darkness
Guilty pleasures
Love, love, LOVE your Videos! Thx for inspiring me and motivating me to continue with film fotography!! Love you man!
8:40 and of course, the available 120 and sheet film on eBay gets snatched up on the day this video is uploaded

I really like the shot of the Safari Inn. I liked how they used it in "Apollo 13" and it's nowhere near Coca Beach.

Fuck it, I like the vignettes at the pool more than the wide shot.
always on the look for your videos, I never laugh and learned at the same time. Grainy Dayz
Shot expired film once and it was not stored well enough. Hope to shoot it again soon with better film
