If you don't photograph: - sports - wildlife - fast pace action - with long focal length lens - close-up or macro - with wide angle lens - with flashes Then yes, it worth every penny.
What a camera, what a beauty!
Love this bro!!! I am just getting into film now lol.
If left unplugged to your KIA USB does it drain the battery? I understand it’s specific to every car, but what about your KIA? Thanks 😊
What is the purpose of the carlinkit, Which Still has a Wire?
FM2 and FM2n are the ‘cut corner versions FM’. Lots of parts internally and externally were replaced by plastic and less moving parts like the Ai and non-Ai tab around the lens mount. Since it’s a fix plastic parts, it would not be able to use any lenses made before 1977. 😢
Are you sponsored by this company?
No, I’m not sponsored by any company.
the single flaw? shooting it left eye with the advance lever gouging your eye
You were drugged and hypnotized.... They are a Nazi cult that Traffic Children.
Good test. I have a similar setup. Been streaming a little while and trying to resolve 720p resolution cap issue. I believe this is it! Thanks keep going man
Can u get Netflix on it
I just searched up “cornerstone festival” because honestly ever since they stopped my 4th of July has never been the same since they stopped having the festival. Thank you thank you thank you for making this video I just met you but I already love you for this 😭😭😭 My dad went to cornerstone Illinois since the very beginning but he started taking me when I was a little girl in 2008 and I went all the way to the very last year and cried the whole time! Thank you again for this video
YES SHOOT FILM MY DUDE! Why take digital photos, when you can take photos on film then take digital photos of that film to share it online? Lol I'm just jealous of your leica man. I have subscribed in hopes of living vicariously through you as you shoot your leica because I'll probably never be able to own one. BTW, please don't be upset if you scroll upon my video making fun of leica owners. It was all a joke for internet attention. I don't want to get cancelled by the film community before I get a reel following.
There`s no screen on the back on my Leica MD 262 digital or Nikon F2 film cameras...!
I was the bass player of The Skies Revolt. We built our tours around playing Cornerstone. Shout out to Mama Linda who feed the bands twice a day for free at her own expense. She was a godsend because we were broke.
Aren't meters adjustable?
No, meters themselves are not adjustable. The camera is adjustable. A meter just give you a best estimate for proper exposure based on the current settings of your camera (I.e. shutter, aperture, film speed/iso)
Rn idk if I should buy a f3 or fm2
Totally regret selling mine in 1991. Will be correcting that soon.
It is very nice, but nobody in these kind of videos talks about phone battery life? So I would try to ask here, how is battery life on the phone while using Carlinkt 5.0?
I don’t think anyone mentions it because it’s a non-issue. It uses Bluetooth to connect to your phone and Bluetooth draws very little battery these days.
@@Westopher what about wifi, isn't that also requirement to connect?
No, it’s not required to function. The Carlinkit has its own WiFi network that you can connect to to change product settings but it’s not required for operating the product.
Bluetooth does not have enough bandwidth for the navigation data that needs to go from the phone to the device. WIFi is used for that so you need to put your phone to charge otherwise your battery will drain quickly.
I watched video after video and no-one talks about call quality. I bought carlinkit and having a conversation is horrible. The drops are terrible. I then bought ottocast thinking if you pay more it will definitely be better. Nope.
Why does my unit keeps starting and stopping back forth
what is sync mode for? no details much on the manual
Fm vs fm 2 ? What’s the difference
I have a Chinese car that has qdlink . Can this dongle change me to android auto
Thanks for the comment. I wish I could help you, but I don’t know the answer to that.
I have a Buick regal an got the carlink 5.0 I connected to my Bluetooth, nothing happens connected to the WiFi an entered in the password 12345678. Nothing stlll connects.. went to the browser an entered in the number to search, says everything is connected but nothing screens to vehicle? I didn’t get any prompts on phone or car when car link connected via Bluetooth or WiFi. Is it just the vehicle? Or why can’t I get it to pair to my screen in car
Thanks for the comment. I would recommend reaching out to the manufacturer and explaining your issue. I’m only really able to comment on my experience and the use of it in my own car.
Is there any way to disable the carlinkit splash screen when you enter the car???
Not from what I can tell.
in 4.0 version there is a possibility to replace this menu with black screen, unless your phone connects to a car. It should be possible if you mess around in settings of device
Ether the FM2n or EM, both solid and reliable cameras
CarlinKit 5 doesn,t work with Rav4 2022.
That doesn’t make sense to me, but if that was your experience, I can’t confirm or deny it. I don’t own that car so I can’t say for sure.
If you leave the usb connected in your car, will it drain the battery?
That depends entirely on your car and how it’s designed. The device itself will not draw power unless power is provided by your USB port.
great camera, but the real INSIDACABLE BEST CAMERA IS OLYMPUS OM3 TI, I'm sorry
To each their own 😊
@@Westopher It's true that everyone has their own legitimate preferences, but there are some characteristics of the Olympus om3TI that are objectively decisive. Even the multi-spot exposure metering system alone is enough to establish the superiority of the Olympus OM3TI over any other camera of the pre-autofocus era. Even today, better light measurement has never been done, not even on the latest professional mirrorless cameras! The "magic" two buttons for highlights and shadows were crazy to use, as soon as you got used to them, you could just love them! Nikon had flash sync and the fastest mechanical shutter speed of the time, but Olympus with dedicated flash synchronized on all mechanical speeds even 1/2000. I have owned many cameras including both Nikon FM2 and Olympus, and I must say that in use Olympus was much faster and more ergonomic. The optics were both excellent but perhaps still with some advantages for Olympus Zuyko, not only in terms of image results but also for weight and size, you could carry the same photographic set and have 1 kg or less weight on your back! With the advent of autofocus, Olympus left the competition and left the field to Nikon and Canon. I have to say that the best AF cameras of the time were Nikon F100 and Nikon F6 (Canon don't hate me please) these are the reasons for my thoughts. Greetings, Alex
does this replace your car's native Carplay screen with it's own "carliniktit CarPlay" screens?
Not quite. The CarPlay interface is actually part of the iPhone, not the head unit. So while the Carlinkit has its own screens during connection, CarPlay is still native because it’s native to the phone.
Can you use steering wheel buttons to control it? Like skip a song or volume?
Yep, everything functions as like it’s wireless
@@Westopheras like its wired you mean.
I used Command Velcro strips.
sweet and simple. Thanks Man
Welcome!
Can u get Netflix on it
Should of turned the car off and back on so we could see how quick it auto connects
Thanks for your comment. I would have but the EV6 doesn’t cut power to the USB port for some time after power off :/ I will say, it’s about a 15-20 second power up and connect time.
I just wanted to apologize for the comment I made in the past. It was immature and without substance, just a blind insult I made to you for no good reason.
No worries! Thanks for your apology.
I hope you shoot your videos in film as well, film video cameras are cheaper than RED digital cameras, it really lowers the entry cost of large format videography. Why would someone buy a full frame digital camera to start photography? that's a silly justification to claim a lower barrier of entry, the only advantage that might offer you a full frame is shallower depth of field and lens usage but the difference is not that big compared to APS-C sensors. You have to learn so much before you outgrow such cameras, learning composition, lighting, scene setup, subject visualization etc. The irony is that many film photographers claim that you learn more with film because you have limited exposures but to me that sounds more like a lack of a learning mindset, people with lack of self control and discipline, very common for this kind of people to use crutches regardless of digital (spray and pray, not enough effort) or analog (the analog visuals give an artistic boost to their crappy photography skills, thinking they are actually better). Many film photographers say that with film you focus more on the scene but I find that highly ironic because is so simple to set up your digital camera to get a proper exposure you can focus a lot more on the moment subject and technique to capture the best shoot, depending to what you are going for. In the case of photography that involves fast paced action out of your control digital is just leaps and bounds superior to analog, try doing wildlife or sports photography, I bet you the vast majority of such professionals if not all would willingly pay you to go back to using a digital camera over analog if you swapped their camera. With film you only get feedback until you develop and inspect your photos, that takes much longer, and while that gives you a dopamine rush with the reward of seeing your work in the darkroom is only that, for many modern analog photographers is more about the reward than the photo and that's not bad, the issue is that many claim purism and superiority when there isn't such thing, with digital you can get an idea test it and improve much faster because you can always try new things, in fact it can save you a lot of money in film, so once you learned to take great photos you can use those skills on film. Just because digital cameras have a "complex" menu does not mean you can't use them if you haven't learned every setting, that's a very asinine thing to say, a 8 year old could master using such menus in a couple of days and yet is not necessary. Things that you need to learn to shoot with a digital camera; Shutter speed, Iso number, aperture, autofocus, file format and size, that's it, everything else are settings to streamline your user experience and tweak things to get the best of your gear and if you are serious about photography learning to use a menu should be nothing compared to the effort you have to dedicate to become a good photographer. Imagine if such simple things stopped outliers from accomplishing what makes them special. I could argue that with analog things get significantly more complex, you have to choose your film brand, sensitivity, color correction. Then you have to load your film to your camera and start shooting, after you blew about $20 dollars taking 72 exposures $40 if you use slide film (as of 2023) then you have to develop, you can go to get your film developed and incur significant extra expenses (about $20 to $30 a roll), time and have no control over it or develop it yourself. In that case now you have to choose a developer and a fix bath so that's more things to learn, and while they last a long time you have to mess with chemicals every now and then, you need a dark room with gear to load your rolls and develop, you must learn how to bring out your image by messing with temperature, concentration time and exposure, when you finish then dry your film, meanwhile all that happens the film can get damaged and dirty, dust is an inescapable problem unless you work in a clean room, you have to enlarge your photos unless you enjoy looking at negatives or you shoot with slide film so there is also the expense, time and learning curve of the enlarger, photo paper and its developing, then and finally then you have your photos where you can enjoy and use as feedback to better your technique. If you scan them but never print them then shooting analog is even more nonsensical. So don't say film is better than digital because it isn't. If people enjoy shooting in film that's great but they should recognize things as they are, they do it because they enjoy the process the satisfaction and the artistic facets it offers. I might sound like a Digital fanboy but I am not, I enjoy both (well not 35mm I find it silly) I like to make my own emulsions and coat plates then shoot with that, I enjoy a lot the process and capturing of an image with something I made from scratch, also I enjoy medium and large format photography because it offers incredible resolution (the only advantage I see of film over digital), I am an avid digital photographer and I love to shoot wildlife and equestrian photography, things that would become incredibly expensive with film, and I always print my best Digital photos.
You’re entitled to your opinion for sure, but just know that you’re putting in a lot of effort into argue with a nearly 5 year old video. Just go out and shoot how you like, no need to waste your energy here. Cheers.
@@Westopher Well it just took about 10 to 15 minutes of my time (would be so funny if meanwhile I wrote that I were waiting for development of film with caffenol) so I don't think it was wasted time, I spoke my mind. Though I find incredibly ironic that you tell me I put too much effort in voicing my view when you recorded, edited and uploaded an entire video about what you think about the subject. Is true people can shoot as they please, I just don't like when people state things that are not true or justify with illogical arguments their choices. Film is great and fun but definitely not better than digital 90% of the time.
This guy has been away for two years. Is he OK?
Hey! Thanks for noticing. I went through a lot over the last couple of years. I’ve been thinking about starting up again soon. Thanks for the comment!
Except for the 1/4000 s top speed, which is of limited utility, all of the features you mention are shared by many SLR cameras made in the 1960s and 1970s, and many of them have features the FM2 doesn't (and I could name several), or a better photometer, or are made entirely of extremely robust metal parts, whereas there is some plastic on the FM2. The FM2 is a great camera, but whoever claims it's "the best camera ever built" obviously hasn't had many cameras in their hands. Some suggestions to experiment with:Topcon RE Super, Olympus OM1, Konica Autoreflex T3 and Auto-Reflex, Pentax Spotmatic and SV, Nikon F and F2, Canon F1, EF and FTb, Nikkormat, Minolta SRT101 and SR-1, Cosina Hi Lite , Chinon CX, Ricoh Singlex, Miranda G and Sensomat RE and many more. Any of these is a beast that can give FM2 a good fight. And what about the Nikon FM3a? And let's not forget that already in 1960 the Konica F reached a top speed of 1/2000 s.
I'll stick with my Nikon F2.
Just got the black version yesterday!
I went three years in a row and it was amazing. 2003-2005
Why do meter decline over time?
Hey sorry I’m a bit late. Do you know if the ZV1 can do 4k60 through camlink? Thank you in advance 🙂
Love your passion for film. I am old enough to remember film as the only option. Small correction.... You can get excellent Canon 6D with nifty 50 for less than 400EUR these days .... But yes ..... I still have 35mm slide roll in my Elan 7
Awesoeme !!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm at the beginning of the journey too, trying to get my first live stream up in a few weeks.... or soooner!
You got this!
I would personally pic the f3 because of its backwards compatibility with pre ai lenses and also because of its amazing selection of viewfinders and focusing screens
If that’s your cup of tea, the FM3a is a better camera.
super explanation. congrats !
Thank you 🙂
I have it the same but in the black version. It is a fantastic machine, simple to use and of superlative mechanical and aesthetic quality.
Shooting Portra 400 at anything over 200 will cause the red layer to become too saturated. Shoot at 400-320 for normal colors and contrast and 250-200 for more pop. It’s in the nuance. Yes film can handle more than a stop or two it doesn’t mean it’ll look it’s best at that. Btw Portra 400 at 640 can look really great too.
