Same bro

at least for me, getting into film was such a turning point for my photography

Same! That's why I just ordered mine LOL

Exact reason I’m getting into it

Sameee

This is more important with the bulk loading cassettes, because the felt has had more that one length of film pass through it over time and is probably more worn down. Some films, especially infrared, can act like a fiber optic light pipe and can get exposed even with the felt.

In reality modern 35mm film cassettes shouldn't let in any light during daytime loading. Although all film should be stored in the dark as best practice. Re-used bulk film canisters and 120 film are more susceptible to light leaks... that's why there is a leader.

I didn’t see any light leaks in the video?

@@melody3741 I didn't see them either. As I wrote, it's a risk, not a method to create a light leak. If you don't care about such risks, just forget my comment.

@@melody3741 u serious? almost every second photo had a lightleak

I also don’t know why they say the colour of the film’s canister and box is a cheat sheet. AFAIK they’re just branding colours. CineStill’s most famous film isn’t even 50D but that’s the box they showed.

There’s a lot of “tips” in this video that are going to make absolutely no sense to a beginner.

ASA is The American Standards Agency. This was the in USA agency that provided the film rankings. In Germany it was DIN Deutsche Industrie Norm and in Russia Ghost (which is on the Kiev 4a). There was an international photographic effort to an a worldwide ranking and this was the International Standards Organization (ISO) job and they "unified" film ratings international. Made it easier for meter and camera manufacturers and also users. On digital the ISO rating is really an equivalence thing and not an actual engineering standard, per se.

Cause the process so amazing, and the trip for click every moment make the film very very different

Because it's the same thrilling sensation as asking a girl out, or being front row of a roller coaster : you know how to do it, but there is always an element of unexpected surprise !

Cause you never know how the final results are gonna look like

Because the process is amazing and the fact that you don’t know what your photos are gonna turn out just makes it even better

I love the Chemistry!

Springs, when in use within their intended range, will never loosen, if they're also tempered properly. this is one of the incredible feats of steel, compared to other metals and alloys. For instance, no matter how lightly you strain aluminium, eventually it will cause hairline cracks or simply break.

@@jolioding_2253 Old comment really but I was just thinking back to when I studied mechanical stresses. No material is perfectly elastic. Constant tension will always result in a change of the spring. Not something you'll notice in a few days, maybe not even a few months, but you never know when you might take your last shot for years. Our parents sure didn't. That plus, I've know of so many people accidentally pressing the shutter button or it actuating in their bags resulting in wasted exposures. Unless you actually use a film camera as a daily driver and need it to take a shot at a seconds notice, there really is no benefit to having it advanced. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

@@MegaCraigh Okay thank you for clearing that up for me, so I've been lied to.

@@jolioding_2253 Nah not really lied to. It's true 99.9% of the time. I just tend to think a million years ahead. And hate wasting film 😂

So just follow his directions and then finish the roll or just don’t advance on your last shot?

I heard this too. I personally advance it before while I'm out shooting but don't when I put it away in my bag to avoid an accidental button press.

These guys are bandwagon merchants. Feel sorry if people come to these guys for knowledge about film photography.

@@retrospective77 Does the film community really need gatekeepers? smh

pretentious sounding hipster lingo for something they think they discovered.

@@NickMaksy it’s not about gate keeping. It’s more about getting accurate information. Fuji canisters are green, but they make so many different stocks that don’t have green highlights. I don’t even think they understand what they said.

@@NickMaksy i mean, looking from the comments, the moment team who are supposedly “true original film nerds” dont know their stuff as well as they should

I’ve had some great results with shooting Gold at 160 and at 100, if you haven’t played with overexposing it!

lmfao juste happened to me today !

Omg Yes I Hate That lol

Happened to me yesterday and I thought that my broke

The best part of waking up is developer in your cup.

Same. 😅

Very confused about what you mean, but there's the shot on film store in Seattle for a lab, if you didn't know abt it.

@@chainsaw2046 oh i know. i get my film processed there mainly. what i’m saying is - wishful thinking Moment would open a lab since they started seeking film. far from happening but who knows.

True! I saw a video recently that made the case that film handles highlights (overexposure) much better than digital and it was substantiated, however it had NOTHING on digital when it came to shadows. All in all a rather inaccurate and misleading statement they made.

Because of hipsters 😄 hope it's not just a fad and the film industry actually makes a comeback. As far as advice on getting film, try ebay, expired rolls are not too expensive but you will need to compensate about a stop for each decade it is expired (400 film from early 2000's should be shot as 100 for example) and preferably get something that says was refrigerated as that prolongs the film's life. Other than that for the life of you don't go the lomo way with gimmicky film such as doubble film or Lomography unless it's just straight no effect ones. You will be horribly disappointed if you are looking for a vintage film look as all they do is preexpose the film and it comes out weird and very low quality overall.
