painfully shooting a dying medium on a daily basis.
Why Shoot Film in 2024?
This is complicated answer.

In a world of growing digital cameras, with newer, crazier technology coming-out, seemingly every day, I frequently get asked why I shoot film when digital is much more accessible. Well, I've taken some time to think about it and why we plunge so much money into this potentially dying medium. However, I think there's much more inherent artistry to it than simply just preference.

Recent news from an international social media outlet, stating that Fujifilm I back producing film, but it won't be in Japan anymore. While it's not clear whether the C200 and C400 emulsions are Fuji's unique chemistry or not, many sleuths on the internet are predicting that Fuji is just finishing and packaging the film at this new factory.

Переглядів 3,1 тис.14 днів тому
A new 35mm film has arrived, in a 800 iso/speed variant, and honestly, the results have been quite impressive. Flic Film "created" Aurora 800, a color negative 35mm film, from what many are thinking a re-spooled Kodak 800 speed film. Regardless what it is, I've been pleasantly surprised with the results that not only I've gotten, but also from others online. Have you shot Aurora 800 on 35mm? Wh...

The film will come back... it's coming back.... (waits for film to come back after saying it's going to get some cigarettes).
How do you process and scan 4x5
If this is less than $1000 I will be shocked
Hey this was a great video! I really enjoyed your take on this format. your photos were dynamite to say the least. Medium Format is the way I want to go too. Thank you and may God Bless you too. Roger
wtf are you doing with that milk... and tea
Bro what is that song name at the start which keeps repeating "the things they choose to do"

Mr Fingers! THat is a nifty lil film loader thingy. BTW my fellow film photo youtuber! I just released the finale in my 3 part youtube short series on developing film at home. It was a lot of work, yet alot of fun to produce, hope you have as much fun watching as I did making it! Happy Snapping!
When I saw the notification I thought they were rereleasing it, damn
Same 😂
😆😆😆
I started in film I bought my SLR in 1977 a Pentax K1000 I moved up to Pentax ME SUPER & ME SUPER PROGRAM I kept 400 film in one camera and 1600 in the second camera for low light. I recently Refurbished a Pentax Spotamatic I got the camera as a kit with a number of Takumar lenses I put the camera on a shelf unti somebody gave me a roll of film . That's when I found out the light seals were worn out . I replaced the seals for a few dollars for supplies from Walmart. Now I need to take the camera out and see if I still have a problem with the new light seals
I don't know whether it's because of the inherently deliberate nature of shooting film or something else, but my success rate (number of keepers vs. the total number of photos taken) increases tenfold with film, from 1-2% to around 20%. Also, film is just so much more fun.
Shot film for thirty five years. Worked in a professional lab that catered to professional photographers. Shot a Leica M3. I know film for the shooting to the processing and printing. Switched to digital in 2006. I felt like I was released from prison. What I can do in my home digital lab was unimaginable in the 1970’s professional film lab. No more test prints, felt tip pens, and dodging and burning black and white. No more test strips on the film processors. I don’t miss any of it. You want nostalgia turn your digital camera to manual, single point, single shot, and manual focus. Welcome to 1960! I’ve been there and I will stay with the digital cameras and processing that only allow for a single limitation. The imagination of the photographer. Good luck with film.
Hahahah. Right on man. You're probably not as addicted to the internet as the rest of us (slightly) younger folk. Internet addiction has given anything that encourages more time away from digital tech a major importance. Sure sure, I can switch off my wifi while retouching my digital photos, but I don't! That's addiction. For me, it's a digital prison I'm escaping in those hours swishing hot chemistry around in my bathroom, until those glistening slides emerge. All the best
Convincing the general public to shoot film in 2024 in this economy is an uphill battle. Yes, a cheap camera is less expensive then digital but when you are looking at over $100 for film, developing and scanning, most people won't bother. Especially when you have to wait to see your photos. I love film, but Im certainly not spending $100+ every time I want to shoot 36 photos. Even my instant film cameras are less expensive than that. People are much more likely to buy a disposable camera and shoot film a lot cheaper.
I never stopped schooting film. I don't even edit my film photos. I take all my film to a local lab and get it developed, scanned and printed. They can do a way better job then I could ever do and would not want to spend time developing and scanning while I could spend that time doing other things.
Does this camera have adjustable settings? ISO ? Thank you
Fantastic breakdown man. I'd agree with your points, and I'll add one of my own: I like the mystery of it. The wondering how a shot will have turned out, the excitement of trying a new film stock. The limited nature of this process helps push creativity in a way that I don't think digital can. I think for a lot of us, the answer can kind of be boiled down to "because I like it" Does there need to be any more reason than that?
I'd be very very surprised if that wasn't just cutting and packaging of Kodak film. None of the machines look like coating process stuff.
I love film because it's real and has a physical imprint - and it's not photoshopped or computer generated.
i for one like having the time for me to develop my photos to find out they suck instead of learning that instantly on a little lcd screen
I love shooting film and digital. Both are great mediums for photography. But you can shoot just as slowly and methodically on digital by slowing down and limiting yourself. Film is a very deliberate medium that has no advantages over digital, but it is a good medium if you want a certain look or workflow.
i mean i wouldn’t say is has no advantages like if you’re shooting 120 or large format you can get much more resolution and shallower depth of field than a comparably priced digital camera
@@jackbeausoleil6053 For medium format film cameras, you pay the price in the rolls of film you shoot, while for medium format digital, you pay for it in the camera at the time of purchase. But first generation GFX 50R are very cheap nowadays compared to Mamiya 7 or any other medium format film cameras. The image quality, dynamic range and ease of use for digital is still unbeatable from a purely technical perspective. But the film does allow different 6X7, 6x6 format sizes, and provides a unique nostalgic look.
What is the brand is the film back you are using?
Shot it pushed to 1600 at a concert and LOVED it!
Something about them mirror slaps! 😌
Digital doesn't feel the same, film just hits differently.
3:23 35 mm, 120 or APS, with the latter having a _much_ higher market share amongst non professionals than 120.
Due you buy used Nikon 35mm film camera? I also have a Rollie 35 I also have Polaroid 95 along with lots of filters. I'm looking to sell everything if your interested
