@@adrianzaharia8885 Dude, vacuum has conditions different to a pressured atmosphere, heat doesn't leave an object quickly because it has nothing to transfer itself to, the thing that has the most effect on temperature up there is whether or not it's in the sunlight, protect it from the sunlight and you will protect it from big temperature changes. Now go get educated and don't insult me anymore, you pathetic excuse of a human being.
My old man buzzed on this episode. He was a contract aerospace engineer for NASA during the Apollo missions. He thought it was cool that Hasselblads were still up there. He got me my first film camera. "Hasselblads? I haven't heard that name in awhile," he said.
Found this after rediscovering my ancient Hasselblad 500C - apparently, the last one of these was made in 1957, so, if nothing else, I have in my possession a fully functioning mechanical artifact from over 60 years ago. It is not the model that went to the Moon - as you mention - but it does have a space connection after all: Walter Schirra took it up with him on his Mercury flight in 1962. Thanks for sharing your research with us!
@@imanevilpotatoe7546 Oops! Re-reading my comment, I realise that I may have given the impression that my actual camera went up in a Mercury; while it may have been the one, I would suggest this is extremely unlikely. I was just trying to say that my model of camera - the 500C - was said to be the one to go up that time. Hope this makes things a bit clearer!
the films used were estar based, this base on which the emulsion was poured was strong enough to withstand the temperature differences and would therefore not break in the camera while being transported to the next frame. I used this type of film in the 1980's and it was commercially available as Kodak Technical Pan Film. This was a very slow dokument film in 135 casettes for Leica and the alike cameras. but with the correct developer and exposure you could get an extremely fine grain normal contrast negative out of it. You could not tear it it had to be cut.
Love what you're doing man! This shit is hilarious!! Just a quick thing that 120 film isn't 120mm, it's actually 61mm. 120 was just kodak's number to name the film type. Hence 70mm film is actually larger than 120 film But please keep doing what you're doing, I bloody love it!!
Watched this video last night and loved it. Woke up this morning with a start - "Wait, 70mm isn't smaller than 120 film!" Logged onto TH-cam and saw that another film nerd had already got that covered in the comments. I drifted back off to sleep, content.
My whole career basically has been working in science and mission operations for space cameras, mostly on/orbiting Mars. Since I was also a photographer outside of that, thanks to the Moon connection, I always wanted a Hasselblad. After my first holiday bonus at my first space camera job, I went to the local shop and amazingly there was a mint condition 500c with every accessory you could possibly imagine on consignment from its original owner. He was a photojournalist back in the day. It felt like fate so I immediately bought it and it’s been a prized possession for many years now. ❤ Love the amount of detail you went into in this video, down to the film types!
Hi Jason, your research paid off as this is a very interesting video. You did a great job with your dry sense of humor! Makes me want to break out my Olympus XA2 camera again! Keep up the great work. Anthony.

Day 4 night 5: I’m still thinking of those hasselblad cameras it hurts... I’m hoping to to hop on that trip to Mars and stop halfway to pick one up but who knows 🤷🏼♂️
My grandfather actually worked on the space-division of Hasselblad. He is passed away so I can’t ask about the lubricant-issue but I asked my dad if he ever mentioned it and the best guess was that they just went without oil in the cameras since it was for a limited time it would probably do without. Great video as always!
@@narajuna With photos and samples being the listed primary purpose of the missions it astonishing how much time they wasted taking photos. I'll bet if we checked we'd find they also slacked off and collected rock and dirt. Like we don't have enough rock and dirt here on Earth!
About using conventional lubricants in the camera, (i think) they use parts made out of gold/gold alloys, because apparently gold is pretty smooth too. And price tags are not an issue for them. Learnt this recently in collage.
@@grainydaysss thanks so much for this video :D even though i have seen so many pictures of apollo and moon etc, it never occurred to me how they actually would have done it. in retrospect DUH hasselblad :D . this is such a cool video. i want to thank youtube algorithm for spitting out this beautiful beautiful video.
@shillslayer Yeah that was explained. They used zone focusing. I don't know what the zone of focus is on a 60mm Zeiss lens at f16 since I'm nowhere near rich enough to purchase one, but on my cheap Nikon lens its about 4 feet to infinity. Anything within that range will be of acceptable focus. But of course, you probably knew that. Because why else would a moon truther be blowing up the comment section of a photography video on TH-cam...
Not sure what he's using specifically, but i'm sure you can create a similar effect by keyframing the zoom and tilt of the photo behind the square mask.
I researched the answer myself. Apparently lower speed film transparency film does not irradiate as much as negative. They also in development took into account the radiation effects for minor radiation effect. Reminder there are many photos of Chernobyl on film and that was FAR worse radiation.
shillslyaer is full of himself. the magazines of the Lunar Hasselblads had lead foil inside them, according to NASA and Hasselblad, but you can't take sharp photographs without a viewfinder...

Sorry, the world is not as we've been taught in public school.
great Video! but acn you pls tell us how you did the depth effect in the chapter photos? can you do this with an extra software or how did you do this?
Well the lubricants wouldn't *dissolve* in a vacuum. Some would freeze and some would evaporate. You're looking at zero air pressure and temperature ranges from roughly -300F to +400F. So a light oil would almost certainly evaporate, and a thick grease would probably freeze. It'd be a great reason to invent teflon, but I don't think they were there yet.
1:35 with the lubricants I can see them using dry lubricants such as graphite powder which can be used as a substitute for more traditional lubricants in specific use cases, and seeing as these cameras only needed to work for a few weeks not for years on end it would be fine to use something like that. Just to clarify I am not saying that's was definitely what they used but it would make sense in an environment like the moon's surface.
And there are issues with metal expansion and contraction with the extreme temperatures in the environment in which they were being used. Highly polished bushings would get tight or lose on the shafts. Different materials expand and contract at different rates. Early clocks/watches by John Harrison used materials that expand and contract opposite directions (during fluctuations in temp & humidity) to keep key components in proper adjustment. I wondered too about how they figured these out for space and vacuum. Yes they had data from testing every other material and part connections in orbital space and vacuum testing on the ground. Plus some damn smart and intuitive engineers giving their best to figure it out. The science and physics of engineering is fascinating!
4:50 If you want one of the film backs the Apollo 12 astronauts forgot one of them on the lunar surface. Although the images that they took on it have been fogged away by half a century of space radiation.
1:31 actually, the h6d series still is a dslr and not a mirrorless camera. The H6d-400c is an incredible camera btw, but that is probably pretty obvious. Even the H3d-39 still is pretty fucking awesome
Amazing video - got me thinking about how they lubricated the cameras. At the vacuum levels on the lunar surface my guess is they they may have used some sort of dry lubricant like molybdenum or tungsten disulfide. A bit of research says the latter is extensively used by NASA so that's my guess. Not sourced though
Imagine having to be the one to develop the film. Thats more pressure than the astronauts.
You're not kidding!

Yea you're totally right dude, I have since learned the errors of my ways and need to find a way to correct this video
I think 120cm would be correct as it refers to the length of the film (if I remember correctly). Hence 220 Film being a thing, it's just longer.
It's about 4 times bigger than 35mm.
@@luca_hc_gruber correct. 120 refers to the film length.
*Correction: 120 is 83-85cm long. Apologies for the hasty assumption.

Well the lubricants wouldn't *dissolve* in a vacuum. Some would freeze and some would evaporate. You're looking at zero air pressure and temperature ranges from roughly -300F to +400F.
