This will make you sad. Your experience at KEH is the way every good camera store used to be. Buying a camera was a different experience back in the day. Congratulations, and thanks for the great video! I love your pictures, by the way.

The whole section of you tooling around the city and shooting is fantastic. It felt calming to watch. I know how much effort goes into filming yourself shooting like that, and it just came across like a lovely day with some great shots. Hope you're doing well 😊

One of the things I love about the F3 is the sheer volume of accessories available. Shooting waist level with the viewfinder off is good, but Nikon made a waist level finder for some extra magnification and dust protection. I also bought a Type E focusing screen that I adore. Really easy to personalize it to make it the ultimate shooting experience.

A camera that feels so natural to you is truly the best. Loved the walking section🫶🏽and the photos of just people enjoying their day

The notches on the top left of the frame (horizontal shots) indicate to me that your camera has seen pro use in its life. Usually these were put there to let the photo dept know which photographer to credit or which camera to service if there were problems with the images by the different patterns on the edge of the frame. I have two F3s, great camera. Remember some spare batteries.

You have a well cared for pro camera. The four notches indicate it was the 4th camera for whoever previously owed it. We use to do that 'back in the day' so if one body failed we would quickly know which one needed to go in for repair. I used F3 cameras for years as a photojournalist. Have fun with it!

Finding a camera that gels with you when you shoot it is such a great feeling. It’s something that looking at specs or watching reviews won’t ever replace. I have MANY cameras, but recently pulled out my old Konica Autoreflex TC with 40mm f/1.8 and found it a joy to shoot even though on paper it doesn’t tick many boxes for me. Great set, great video.

I’m in your video!! I found you randomly in my recommended and just happened to watch this and I saw myself 😂 small world indeed. Your work is amazing and I’m a huge (new) fan.

Even though you were in Atlanta, those shots in the park had a real Central Park NYC vibe to them.

Really nice video. Thanks for taking us on your photo journey and reminding us why we love photography.

Love your videos and have loved following along with your year of B&W! Picked up a Nikon fm2n last year and it’s become a fantastic daily carry.

Lovely images and a great soundtrack! Makes all the difference ❤

The Nikon F3 is my favorite 35mm SLR. A friend let me borrow hers for a year and I fell in love. She asked for it back and the desire to shoot film has gone down because the experience isn’t the same. I am definitely in the market to buy my own F3.

Great video! Been shooting film for 40 years loved your art. And the music was fantastic! Thank you!

Loved filmstock and seeing all the photographers!

My first love of photography began in 1975 when I took a course in photography. Naturally, I was not familar with the aspect of artistic and development at first, however, the more I progressed, it became a lifetime fascination. Today, I enjoy digital and learning software to enhance my photographs, but nothing beats the nostalgia with 35mm camera development and printing. FYI, last week, I have purchased a F3 from a seller on Facebook Market Page and shooting with Ilford XP2 super 400 film.

your vids are great, extremely soothing and calming

Yesss so beautiful. And congrats on the new camera.🌸✨

Great video & music, always look forward to your next videos. Good to see your enjoying the F3, I like using them so much, I have 3! Thanks 😊

watches video* proceeds to delete my atlanta video edit* but seriously the cam kirk video montage, the photos of Brooklen, chefs kiss. great video of a great time Taylor.

That was really a wonderful and refreshing video preparation. Thank you so much.😊

Taylor! These are beautiful! I have had an F3 for about two years now and have not played around with the self-timer. I can say that will probably change pretty soon :) It was so good meeting you! Thank you for 19 minutes of phenomenal vibes once again. Also… the music 🤌🏽🤌🏽 Yes. Just yes.

This was my main camera for YEARS. I still bust it out occasionally It's one of the pinnacles of Nikon's history. (Controversial at the time because of the electrics - the Nikon F and F2 were 100% mechanical except for the light meters inside their "photomic" prisms.) Great stuff! Keep up the good work!

Bought my F3 a few years ago because I fell in love with one way back when I was a teenager. The LCD and light quit working, but I'm still in love with it and feel like that just gives it more character. Great camera.

I'm thankful that the new generation of photographers have an option to make exposure decisions themselves, and not have to scroll a screen menu !! I bought my F3 before digital and still have it. I've never had any problems with the camera body. The camera is precise and well built, but I've never abused it. Long live the F3 !!!

My absolute favorite camera. I have a pair of F3s that I’ve used all over the world. They can handle anything. Enjoy! Great video!

Your makeshift tripods in the hotel room are so great. I love it all, keep it up.

Awesome shots. Love the pictures from the Nikon. Another fun video to tag along with you on.

My current fav camera is my nikon FG, and i absolutely love that little thing. It's like the little baby brother of the F3, so I can see why you're enjoying it

Thank you a brilliant video, bad weather and floods for a few days in the UK and this properly made me smile. My daughter lives in LA and is also into her film photography and I have sent her the link she will love it. Thanks again from the UK, inspirational video :)

love every bits of this video! also love your hat!

Nice meeting you during the meet! Great video as always!!

I dig the self-portraits. That removable viewfinder is fun!

It was sick meeting you in ATL! Took your portrait and now that we've met, I've watched a few of your videos. Good content and keep it up!

Love the shots of Atlanta taken with a camera like the F3 I used to know in the 80s. The temporary red fingernails were an interesting effect early in the video, then gone on the day hanging out waiting on the flight to depart that evening. Unique.

ooooo hell yeah, I had one of those back in the day too :) Great video, as always

Many thanks for a fantastic video, I have just purchased an F3 and now shot my first film in years, yet to development, am looking forward to the results, you’re video was an inspiration thanks again, from Kay in the UK. Cheers

I don't know how I've never noticed you have a channel but I'm glad i found it! Love the layers in the shot at 12:19. (Can't wait to see you shoot color next year)

this video made me smile today

Love the phrase “Nikon F situation” :-) ❤

F3 is a wonderful camera. Congrats. Great to see people digging film and shooting old cameras. You make me miss film. Oh to re-build my darkroom!

Great video! I just shipped my F3/T off to California to get repaired....can't wait to get it back.

Yes, I bought an F3 because of this video! I love it already, I can't wait to really get into it!

Your videos are so therapeutic, and when I see a notification from you, I feel relieved. The 3200 shots were scintillating!

Wow! Fun video, really enjoyed this. Well done.

We love a good jason cameo Also, that first self portrait is such a good use for the removeable viewfinder!!

Great video! Loved the song at the end 🕺

Just discovered your channel as a rec from Thomas Heaton's videos (he was also in Andalusia) and I absolutely love your style of shooting! Incredibly inspired. Especially because I moved to Atlanta a year ago, and haven't taken the time to do a walk like this since I moved. I always feel more courage to photo-walk when I'm out traveling, but since ATL is now home, it's somehow much more intimidating. Thanks for waking me up to the opportunities and beauty here :)

I just love your videos! Each time I see one I just want to shoot film! ❤

You really captured the city in a forest vibe that makes ATL so special

Those self portraits came out amazing!

My F3 is my favorite camera and you can’t beat that 100% viewfinder coverage

You are better and better!!! New camera is the best camera :)

Wow wow wow! Such beautiful images! Ugh! Now I'm staring at the 3200 stock!

I do love a hotel room at night. Something very cozy about it. Anyway those studio photos were terrific. I had an F3 once. I should have kept it.

I got to go to the photo walk in Atlanta! I visited the event from out of state and it was such a fun way to explore the city with my camera

I had an F3 many years ago, loved it

9:58 phone sound like Halloween clip. Dark place and the phone rings vibe

just found this page and obsessed. swaggy cute photographer? yes please

So cool, well done! 👍👍👍👍

Great work and the F3 will you everytime make you happy;) nice greets from Austria, Europe👏📷🍀 awesome Video👍

I picked up a lovely F3T from Japan...picked up some used manual glass and off i'm going! The very best of luck with the new Machine!

SO GOOD!!!!

You know how to use lighting to your advantage. Props to you

Nice video with good inspirations. I myself have experience with analog black and white photography since the early 1990s. Have also developed my own films and made prints. I find that too much hype is made about analog photography. Yes, it is great to continue the analog craft, but this craft can nowadays be continued more flexibly on the digital way, in a higher quality. I see a lot of work from good photographers who are still moving in the analog world. I am firmly convinced that nowadays you can achieve just as good, if not better, results in the digital world. So much for all the hype with analog photography.

Yooooo you really did your thing! It was dope meeting you man, you have a great spirit and an eye! Thank you for the new profile pic lol

That is a really great Kamera, i used it in the 80.s,One of the best Kameras you can buy, i wish you a lot of amazin Photos and a lot of fun, Greatings, Tom from Germany

Great video and fabrastic narrative.

Superb camera.

wow gorgeous work 😱

Nice Film! Nice Graine :) and Good Camera! Thanbks!

The photos are stunning ✨ It was a dope experience to meet you at the KEH/Darkroom walk meet-up!

my mouth was wide open throughout most of the video truly some great work, love these videos Tay:)

It was a pleasure meeting you at the lobby of the hotel! so bummed I couldn't make the photo walk!

I’m loving all the young guns like Grain

such a beautiful camera

OMG the focusing screen 🙈🙈 Nice cool video. F-3 is just a legend, congratulations. If you find yourself comfortable shooting waist level you could check the waist level viewfinder for the F-3 and be safe(r) shooting that way.

some lovely stuff 💛✌️

Loved my F3/T. Mostly used with the motor drive as a newspaper photog. The film advance is the smoothest you will find in an SLR. Nikon added more ball bearings to the advance compared to the F2, four over one. Enjoy!

Very great content Taylor. Love your photos. I own a Canon F1 New (removable viewfinder as well), but I would to try a Nikon F3.

The F3 (& the various iterations of the F4) are solidly built film cameras - I always have one or the other with me; coincidentally, B & W is my favourite medium; colour's OK, but it detracts from the subject matter , primarily because one third of the World's populace can only see in monochrome - the other 66% have the advantage of polychromatic vision - it's a great motivator to perceive everything in the grey scale vis-a-vis the often taken-for-granted colour scales that we witness each day of our lives. B & W also renders the subject matter (whatever that may be) in a more moody context. Great video !

I love doing skate fotos in E6 film. Fuji Provia or Velvia. I use the F3 and F5 for E6 film. Love em!

Awesome video.... I have the F4 and my son has the F3. We could not make it down to FlimStock this year but are planning to make it next year.

The cardboard shredder 😂😭 damn lovely video and photos!! You were in the zone at Cam Kirk 🔥

Picked up a MINT F3 with the nikkor 50 1.4 for $30 this year! Best purchase of my life!

One of the best 35mm cameras ever made. Definitely look for a waist level viewfinder for it. So fun.

Lovely video and photos! Nikon Fs are great and you can get at not so crazy prices.

This has inspired me to get out my FM2n and some 3200 black and white film again!

The Nikon F3 has been on my list of cameras for some time now. Great video

Great photos. And I agree KEH is the best. I got my Minolta X-570 from there. Bargain bin it’s nearly perfect.

You camera was once media. Cool. Thank you for letting me see how you look at where I call home. Glad we were a nice place for you. If you ever sell prints from here pls let me know. Peace & love

Absolutely lovely studio portraits ! I love the poses and the light. And I agree, the 3200 film grain is awesome :) If you've never tried it before, HP5+ at 3200 is actually really good (albeit a lot more contrasty than Delta 3200).

It’s a great camera. I first wanted one in 1996 when my photo teacher had one. I eventually got one years later and still use it today. I love it with the md-4 motor drive. Clunky and heavy but awesome when I don’t feel like using the advance lever. Haha!

Liek it! Thanks for uploading it.

HOLY that shot at 2:40 is stunning

Shoutout to the roller blader at 12:37, he's an ATL legend

I’ve had my F3 since 85, it’s been a great camera. Still shoot it regularly

I got a Canon F-1N from KEH. I freaking love that thing.

I picked up a FM2N from KEH recently, but just over the internet. On the late checkout front, you may also be able to check bags with the concierge or front desk, and pick them up later. Assuming your hotel is in a convenient enough location. 🤷‍♂️😸

Aww... Jealous of the F3. Great photos. Gotta say though, your videography is stunning.... Love the vibe
