I like the warm tone - but not when it turns my friends skin yellow! It's a lovely film for the price though 😊

I wonder what causes the skin tones to get so bad

@@DaniloAllen I guess it’s the white balance.

@@maxjanko true! it's just a lot I guess..

I would LOVE it if Kodak made Gold in 120!!

and you are a quality audience member like no other 😊

Thank you very much Denzel! I've been working hard to try this approach to my videos. I've got another one coming up soon that I'm very excited for that is as gentle as a feather - that I'm so excited to get done!

Enjoy your journey with film!

Thank you 😊 glad you enjoyed it

yay! how did the shots go - have you gotten your scans back yet?

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! That means a lot!

I try my best!

Thanks for the sub!

Thank you 😊 Hopefully you get some nice shots!

Hi @@DaniloAllen The camera works and I got some decent shots on it using a roll of Kodak Gold 200. Some shots were of course complete duds, especially the ones I thought had a good framing and exposure. I'm still learning its quirks, so yes, expected. Definitely a good start though. I'm hunting for a better camera now and I also have loaded a Fujifilm C200 as my second roll. Almost halfway through it, plus I'm searching for good labs to get film developed properly where I stay. I realise that the camera is just an ordinary one, considering it was made locally in an era when photography as a hobby in general was not as common and a owning a camera was a bit of a luxury. Considering that, I think it works great. The nostalgia wave is pretty tall. Cheers and thanks! I hope the channel grows well! I hope we can connect on Facebook as well. I am into smartphone photography as one of my immensely favorite hobbies and post on my personal account very often. I'd love to see/hear what you think.

Awesome! Have fun!

Thank you!

Cheers!

Thank you!

Yes - you definitely can!

great idea!

Thanks! 😊

Meter for the highlights you reckon even at box speed? That's unconventional right? Interesting - I will have to give that a try. And yes - I agree, sunsets look terrible. I guess some lessons are learned the hard way...

how did it go? have you shot it yet?

I expose for shadows generally - or shoot 1 stop overexposed

@@DaniloAllen Yes me too, seems to be the way

I don't remember too well, but I believe i was shooting +1EV to what my meter on my camera suggested

thanks!

I measured it at exact value I believe with one or two shots overexposed by 1 stop

Paiwbtla, it sounds like a problem with your scanner process. I don’t think it’s possible to “blow out” the highlights (255 value on the scan) on Gold 200. I shoot it at box speed.

That’s a very good question. My gut says yes - because all the electronics seem to be there... But I’m not certain...

If your new I’d suggest starting with whatever’s cheaper first, just to get your grips and familiarise yourself with the process and your camera!

only when it's too dark to shoot otherwise, personally I'm not the biggest fan of the style that flash gives

I'd suggest setting your meter at 100 (setting the ASA on the shutter dial to 100) if you can, but it's okay if you meter at 200.

@@DaniloAllen thank for the reply.

☺️

I recommend metering at 100 ISO

my results with Ultramax so far have been disappointing (in comparison to other stocks) and it's just not for me - just my opinion

Danilo Allen Thats fair

Love Me Patiently by Liminal is the track

@@DaniloAllen thanks and i enjoyed ur video I am not a photographer but I like it

Awesome! Thank you! I was actually in the middle of editing my next video as you left that first comment, funnily enough looking for a song to use and you made me realise I should use that song again haha

that's quite expensive for 1 roll, I can get 36exp. rolls here in Australia for about 6USD

@@DaniloAllen Great vid man. Moved to Australia not too long ago, where's best to buy film? So many places seem to be out of stock

@@PhillyG100 it's really tricky, most of the good places where they properly refrigerate and store the film are in the major metropolitan areas, where abouts are you based?

@@DaniloAllen Ah right, I'm in Adelaide. Or are there any good websites you'd recommend? Thanks!

Walkens! I buy my film there and haven't been disappointed once.

Not even close.

if you get perfect lighting - I'd have to agree!

Will you be paying for this?

I have worth the investment if you want to improve as a photographer.
