Every now and then I find a camera that completely changes the way I approach photography. The Fujifilm Rensha Cardia Byu-N 16 is absolutely one such camera. Watch the video to find out why!

As a former studio owner, CPP, and over 60 years in the darkroom, I have never heard of that overdeveloping technique or this camera!!! Thank you

@rogerb5615 Жыл бұрын

Semi-stand development: Use Rodinal, 1:100 working solution, at about 70F. Agitate vigorously when film is first wet, then again briefly at the halfway point. Total development time is 45 to 50 minutes. Negatives will be a bit contrasty for some folks, but what Taylor says is true: This method compensates for under/over exposure thru a range of about +/- 2 stops. Works even better with Pyro 510 in a similar dilution.

@@hicknopunk You're right that these are not live photos. It is a series of photos from which the best photo is selected. That is the original intention. Digital cameras also allow this and are mainly used by paparazzi. It is not a problem to create GIFs from digital photos. Classic photography of this type was about the mentioned selection of the best photography (snapshots).

My guess is that the "weird mode" let's you document a sequence (e.g. someone shooting a golf ball) and then use the last frame to reference that picture with a date, a score.. anything that will give you info about the sequence you recorded.

@TimSheehan 3 жыл бұрын

My thought as well, 15 shots of the golf swing then a shot of where it landed or where you were swinging from or something

Hi all! Thank you so much or the overwhelmingly positive and wonderful response to this video! A few things: 1: New content is on the way (and no, I did not die) 2: Thanks to everyone who pointed out "byu-n" is a Japanese onomatopoeia for the sound a golfball makes as it flies through the air. Apparently this sort of thing is very common in Japan. Very clever! 3: I agree that "weird mode" is very likely meant to document something after the swing, e.g. score card, where the ball landed, etc. 4: I will make a stand development video! 5: Blinking is for the weak.

I was wondering if I were the only one who figured out that it wouldn't be byu-n, but rather a "noise-word" … especially for a video that's over a year old. (Though I was wondering for quite a while if it were something to do with view (byuu), like view n# 16 or so … Japanese katakana is weird)

One thing to mention about this camera is the seemingly irregular frequency of the burst. This is likely due to the fact that the first phase of a golf swing is relatively slow (drawing the club backwards to it's highest point) so the first few frames are spaced further apart in time, then the following frames are captured at a higher frequency as the actual swinging motion of the golf swing is a lot faster. This way more detail of the swing from it's highest point to the actual strike of the ball can be captured.

@taylornoel 3 жыл бұрын

Yeah I’ve often thought how I should have mentioned this directly in the video. At the time I figured I showed the pacing of the shutter with the 1st sequence (of the girl dropping her hat) but it’s probably something that was worth mentioning separately as well.

The production value and effort you've put into your work needs more attention! Keep up the good work. P.S.
