These are the types of photography videos I like. No lofi music, no quiet boring talking, just epic fast paced tips full of jokes. Respect.

Fact: the first dislike comes from Jason himself

Jason, my wife took the kids and my Nikon FM-2, i am ruined, great video. Liked and Subscribed

Dear Future Jason, If you are watching this, remember Baxter is the backbone of this channel.

“How to talk to your cat about gun safety” got me rolling 😂

This, I think, is the best intro to film photography video out there. The others are: - Omitting crucial information such as how to load film EXACTLY and how to rewind - Have less memes and chuckles - Are basically clickbait for 'tricks and tips' they could have told in 10 seconds (really, FU if this is you) This is jam packed full of gems. Such a good overview. Thanks Grainydays!

This is such an awesome comprehensive guide for beginners/your future self! So grateful my film hasn’t burst into flames yet, wow

You've done the how, now you should do the why shoot 35mm film

Instructions unclear ended up with Lasagna and it aint even that good

finally i can be like the cool kids

Discovering your channel is the best thing to happen to me in the past 6 months. Thank you Jason ❤️

Best beginner guide to film photography

Amazing humour and quite informative. Thanks for bringing a smile to a 35mm film photographer.

I knew all of that and still enjoyed every second

That poor tlr :(

my moms a photographer and she unearthed her old canon av/at-1s last week, this is great help for someone like me who has literally never touched a roll of film. thanks

probably the densest and most informative video about analog photography. i wish this had been around when i started out!

I love how many steps there are because they're all things to improve for next time. Lessons learned with patience!

5:50 was that a Muncey computer wallpaper tho

Your book title @4:24 brought new greater respect. This was/is a good video... all info... useful stuff. I have watched tons of your videos.... but I just spotted this one.

Wait... what video was that clip from where some dude in a suit threw Caleb’s camera into the ground?? 😂

one of the best visual explanations of SS and Aperture.

i've been looking into film photography for a couple months now, just a week ago i picked up a canon al-1 from a friend, and yesterday my first package of film came in. Now today you upload this. Impeccable timing

i wish i knew this video when watching starting film photography because it’s very informative, short, and entertaining great video!

I need context on the dude smashing a tlr

I can’t image anything being more entertaining while still being educational.

Watching that tlr hit the pavement was painful god damn

Well, about the lightmeter... With some experience you'll need no electronic assistance whatsoever... Every photographer should begin with crude analogics and follow the learning process. With electronic assistance you'll be just a fish in the sea, creating artificial photos... Learning about the process and getting the organic feeling is what make you a good photographer and after all, is what gives you money. Remember, as a son and a dad of a photographer: "Your job is to capture the human feeling. No computer can surpass or even understand it!" Anyway Nice to see young lads keeping the old art of analogic film alive!

I love this video! I wish it had been around when I started learning. So many other how to videos are slow and annoying to watch, but you kept it snappy which I appreciate. And as always the humour is welcome :)

A lot of people suck at making informational beginner tutorials. Great video. Well deserved like.

6min vid that probably took 6 days to put together. Man props and respect to you for your effort and creativity. I enjoy your channel a lot and learn so much. Much succes to you well deserved.

this is so so helpful compared to the other stuff I have read or watched where they just throw in a bunch of terms expecting us to know what they mean

This might just be my favourite 'how to shoot film' video EVER!

Rangefinders: am I a joke to you?

Perfect video when first learning any type of photography, especially film! Thank you for this!

this was the best video about shooting film I could find. I want to start shooting film next year and am looking for what to ask for for Christmas. your video is straight to the point, and I have a few cameras to pick from, as well as types of film. Thanks!

this guy is actually genuinely so funny yet so helpful

I appreciate keeping the continuity of the shirt in this and the original canon AE1 video. It’s the little touches...

ah yes, finally someone who has a personality while teaching.

So short... But loved it! The beginners will learn something and the veteran will laugh. Simple. Baxter gang ✌️

this is a landmark video for film photography introduction. thank you so much for creating it! love your overall video presentation and humour too!

Best camera ever. Been a photographer for 55 years. And this best out of hundreds of cameras I have used. Nikon f5 is second best but I can’t carry anymore as it is more than I can carry weight

I see Jason uploads I just press like, haven't even watched it yet.

I had literally no need to see this video but I knew I HAD to watch it. Worth every second.

Class act on how to narrate a topic, here take a star ⭐️

this is the best video i have seen on that topic!

This is really the best video i've seen about 35mm. Very clear, much information and funny to watch!

A genuinely excellent video. Simple, and yet I still forget it, so I keep coming back to it to bump the view count

Been shooting film for 4 years now but still watched anyway, great video

You had me at "Yo, waddup." Now, on to learning things...

why are the best??? like this was the best video

humor & learning…thank you!

I can’t stop watching your videos. They go great with beer and pretzels.

You sir, just made the best introductory film photography video on KZfaq... in a compact timeframe, while fitting in a s**tload of great comedy 😁 congrats

This quickly became one of my favorite youtube videos!

i never thought Jason would teach us how to shoot like he does, very educational video!

Bless all these childhood traumas that keeps your humour pouring on us ❤ (and these very creative videos).

wow the first not boring how to use film video.

i wish this was the first video i watched on film photograpy. i've wasted so much time and so many film rolls :( and you're funny and not cringy. subscribed

I found an old russian Zenit Avtomat in a thrift store for a handful of euros and bought it on impulse, thx for the tutorial :D

My first film camera, the Canon AE-1 Program in black.. Great camera. Thanks for sharing

This is single handedly the best tutorial for 35mm film cameras Concepts are explained really nicely heheh

Dude, love your videos. Super informative and your little jokes crack me up. Always enjoy watching them. Take care brother and keep that shutter firing.

Ayyyy Jason you just have the best personality of the photography gang

GET LITHIUM BATTERIES SO THEY DONT EXPLODE! Smooches! Xx Stephanie

I already knew most of this stuff but I had to watch so much content to get that info, this is such a great summary of all the important stuff! Why didn't the algorithm bless me with this video sooner?!

this video was TOO FUNNY

Bro this cracked me up, great job

Just found this channel, and the way you speak is awesome. You are my hero.

Ngl, that has to be one of the most helpful videos on KZfaq!

He watched his own video. What a man

Funny enough I began doing 35mm photography about 2 months ago and my first camera,was a Polaroid 95A,which I was dumb enough at the time to call a 35mm camera only to realize later that there’s a reason it shoots 40 film and not 35mm film

Best tutorial

One word... wooooowwwwww , SUBSCRIBED !!!!

Yes, teach me papa grain.

dude, i love you! thank you for this amazing video. laughed and learned. good soup!

The best video i have seen about this camera, thanks

Shit that “every shot you take” got me man 😂😂

As an old film photographer. I recommend 100 speed or 125. Kodak gold is a good film. Unless you’re shootings action or lower light then I would recommend 400 speed or higher. Fir B&W I would say HP4 125 iso. For a basic SLR like the K1000, X700, AE1. You’re limited to 1/1000 on the shutter speed. You have more reciprocity with slower film. Sunny 16 rule. You can go to f 5.6 at 1/1000 with 125 speed HP4. With TriX and FP5 you’re limited to 1/000 at f11 for a bright sunny day. Even in shade you still have some good options with 100 or 125 speed with a standard 50mm lens. If you use a flash why go with fast film? I was a photojournalist my go to film was PlusX and TriX. I used a lot of both but only TriX if I was shooting lower light or more action.

I dig that the Fuji blimp is below the shelves!

When this man dies we all know he’ll be in a better place

your joke game is on point in this one.

Shooting film is just so intimidating lol but I need to give it a shot if I want to learn even more about photography.

i love lamp

Fast and furious film fotography. Fantastic 👍🏻s from me.

This was too smooth Jason

Woah. Expensive production Jason

LOL the ending was epic

Good video. Thank you for making videos of film photography in such nice way

Yo i just became a subscriber, you do good work and had me laughing with your mono tone but I am mono tone as well. Much love bro keep up the good work

When I see new episode of Grainydays I press like!

This is what I call QUALITY CONTENT. 100% Subscribing!!

This guy just mixing photography and sarcasm in one video

great video! I wish I had known these things when I first started (I am lying right now and have no experience with photography)

Dumpster Babies is what I named the hard drive I store all my photos on. Glad I'm doing something right.

Probably the most entertaining photography video I've ever watched. Your humor is the best, lets be friends.

This is the first video i watched on your channel and I fucking enjoyed it love your humor😂

Awesome

1/30 for hand held shots. Not with a 50 mm. General rule double the focal length to set shutter speed. A 50 mm shoot at 125. 100 mm 1/250. The higher telephoto focal length the more this applies. You can get away with a 35mm lens at 1/30 of a second, but shooting a 200mm you have to watch your shutter speed. You can get away with slower shutter speed if you’re panning the shot but otherwise no.

This is the best.
