Capturing Baseball on Film| Film Photography Journey #35mm #filmphotography
Join me on this fun outing as I photograph a LSU baseball game with a 35mm film camera. This was my first time taking photos at a sporting event as well as my first time shooting black and white film. I used Ilford HP5 and also Fujifilm 400. I was shooting with a Canon EOS 500n film camera. It was a fantastic time capturing America's favorite past time, baseball. Loved the nostalgic, grainy black and white photos and the beautiful saturation of the Fujifilm! Hope you enjoyed watching! Geaux Tigers!!

Did you develop at 200 as well?
So I send it to a film lab to get developed but yes I shot at box speed
Is the flash automatic? Or is it always on?
Hey sorry for my late response but I believe it only fires when necessary. It also has a fill flash button. Hope that helps.
Geaux tigers!!
I really enjoyed this video! You got some great photos of the spectators! As well, I always love some Rebel G love! Looking forward to the next video!
Thanks so much!! I think it was actually you that inspired me to look at buying that camera! Great camera and it wasn’t that expensive compared to others!
@@LakeCreates They're surprisingly cheap. I own two and I think I've spent less than $20 on the bodies. Also Canon EF lenses are coming down in price too!
@@northwestdepressedand I feel like they’re a good transition camera before going straight into a completely manual film camera. That’s my next step.
"It''s hard not to be romantic about baseball" Great photos and video. Keep it up! ⭐
Very true! I love the game! Thanks so much!! ☺️☺️ That mean a lot!!
Petition to only make baseball highlights in old times cameras❤️
Haha yes I totally agree!! 💙🤙🏾
Amazing video, stunning footage and images! Greetings from a Swedish youtuber! 🇸🇪
Thank you so much!! Soo happy you enjoyed it! And thank you for commenting! That means a lot to me! 💙🤙🏾
Checked out your channel btw! Great stuff, mate! I subscribed! Can’t wait to see more from you!
I really like your video. greetings from Indonesia ❤
Thanks so very much!! ❤
❤❤❤
Great shots, Ive been trying to spot an owl for over a year now since buying myself a camera 😭
Yes they can be difficult to find but that just continues to give us an excuse to get out there and shoot more haha! We’ll get one eventually! Thanks so much for watching btw! 🤙🏾💙
Beautiful photos and excellent editing.
Thank you so much! That really means a lot to me! 🤙🏾🤍
I love wildlife photography, it’s so calm and daring at the same time. If I can declare myself a type of wildlife photographer it would be the concrete jungle. One of my favorite photos is a seagull taking of and splashing the water with its back leg. Amazing video really nice to wind down to. ☺️
That sounds like an amazing photo of the seagull! And yes wildlife photography is such an adventure! I love being outdoors because I’m not distracted with my phone and social media! And I appreciate you watching! Thanks so much!
I don’t know a lot about cameras, but I really enjoyed seeing your photo’s!
Thanks 😉😉
Loved the Cardinal shots they’re one my favorite birds
Mine too!!
It was a pleasure meeting you this day 😊 one photographer to another !
Yes thanks again for talking to me that day and helping out! And thanks for watching too!
Awesome video of my favorite spot! The yellow bird you saw in the beginning is a Yellow Warbler, nice find!! Thanks for the mention, Laken! Hope you see an owl soon!
Thanks for watching! And that’s what I kinda thought the bird was! And yes I’m still on the hunt for the owls haha one day for sure!!
Hey great video. Might wanna invest in a ground blind to hide better from the animals but loved the video
Thanks so much!.. and yes I really want to get one pretty soon!
Great video!!! I’m gonna buy one soon 🎉
Thanks so much!! I hope you enjoy the camera!! 📸🤙🏾
Try shooting in Raw, editing the Raw and the converte into jpg
Thanks so much! I shoot both raw and jpeg! I showed the jpeg in this video in order to showcase to any viewers what they can expect straight out of camera.
Hello, what L-Bracket do you use on your R7. I am searching for one for mine. Greeting from the Black Forest Germany
Hello and greetings!! Great to hear from you and I apologize for my delayed response but I don’t use an L-bracket! I’m using a cage by SmallRig
R7 or R8?
I own the R7 so of course I’m partial to that one and I’ve never shot with the R8 but to be honest they would both be great options. The R8 is full frame and the R7 is apsc.
Great job! I have a R7 on the way now, and you have earned another sub 😊 keep it up
Thanks so much! I really appreciate that! Happy shooting with the R7! 🤙📸
Great Video. Keep going! Its nice when you talking to the Camera. You got a Talent for the Narration!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!!
love the shots🎉
Thank you so much!! ❤️
How good is your camera and lens you have at birds in flight. I shoot at manual or shutter priority with auto ISO with a shutter speed of 1000/second according to what kind of bird it might be.
Yess I need to try to get some birds in flight!!
good video of New Orleans. I live in Baton Rouge. Would love to get with you on a picture trip. I enjoy going to the swamps.
Thanks so much!! And hey maybe soo!!
nice shots for real
Thank you so very much! ❤
beautiful shots 💞 do more bird photography like this, walk into the woods may be you can see more birds 🥰🦜
Thanks so much!! I’m hoping to do more bird photography videos soon! ❤
Awesome video! It captures everything that i love about film photography.
Thanks so much for watching and commenting! That means a lot! Been having fun shooting film!! ❤
great video love the pictures
Thanks so much!! I really appreciate that!!
excellent video! keep it up^^
Thanks so very much!! Thanks for watching and commenting! More to come for sure!!
@@LakeCreates just one quick tip: change the audio from stereo to mono so that your voice is not only heard on the left channel^^
@@paulushdk thanks again! I didn’t realize it did that! I will definitely fix that! Appreciate it, man!
Just fixed the audio on the latest video I’m working on and it made a world of a difference..thanks so much for the tip! I’m still pretty new to editing and learning how to edit my videos better
@@LakeCreates I'm glad I could help you ;)
I love the shot at 7:12, keep it up!
Thanks so very much! That means a lot coming from you! Definitely been loving film! 🤙🏾📸
I like all the shots, nice!
Thanks so much!! Super happy that you did and thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate you! ❤
Those sunset photos 🤌🏼
Thanks 😊
I really enjoyed this video. Hope you shot more film!
@@rafabern31 Thanks so much!! And yes I have!! Haha
What lens do you use with the camera ?
For this video I was most likely using a canon 24mm ef-s lens with a Meike adapter 📸
Very nice. Like your style.
Aww thanks so much!!
Why? The question, to me, is....Why Not? Ok, I'm 74 and started in 1960 with my camera fun. I have a digital SLR and a phone. I enjoy those but I never stopped shooting film. I have several film cameras and look forward to every chance to get out with one and run a roll through it. I make it a point to shoot several shots of family every chance I get. So I will say...don't stop shooting film!!
I agree..why not?!! Haha I shot a couple of rolls so far and I’m in love! Just bought some black and white film stock to try as well! Now just waiting to get them developed and hoping some turned out okay. But even if not I had a great time shooting. Thanks for watching by the way and I’m so happy you’re still shooting film!
your music is louder than your voice.
Thanks for your input. I’ll be sure to monitor that in my upcoming videos
Great video! For me, shooting film is like putting paint to canvas or pencil to paper: it's a physical way of creating art. There's a craft involved. For millennials (i.e., my kids) getting into film or vinyl, I think when the world went digital, they lost some object permanence. Film and records bring that back. Yeah, you can have "1989" on your Spotify list, or maybe you bought the download, but do you really "have" the album? Same thing with film. You take a film photo, and print it or get it printed, and you actually have something. When your grandkids are going through your stuff in 50 years, they'll find those. They won't find your playlists. Does that make it better? Not necessarily. The rise of digital has made things like photography and music far more democratic. They're not restricted to wealthy people anymore. If you can afford a phone (and they're essentially a necessity), you can be a photographer, and listen to any music you want.
Thanks so much! And thanks for your input! Creating is just important and fun!
yellow mustand is a true art!
Hee hee thanks! 😂
It is very refreshing for someone like me at the latter end of life's timeline to watch a video by someone at the younger end who has become so keen on film photography. You are obviously committed to exploring photography as a skill rather than being concerned about the medium you use such as 35mm and digital including smartphones. Well done you. I must take you to task on one small point, however. Negatives can be faked and there are several examples of well known photographers who created photos by using multiple exposures back in the day. I used to do it myself in the darkroom. Still, as very few modern photographers have darkrooms or even the skills to use them, I think that you can safely say that 99.9% of negatives are authentic. Once again - congratulations on the enthusiasm shown in the video and I look forward to seeing more of your offerings.
Thanks so much! I really appreciate your insight.
True. Look at Jerry Uelsmann's work. It would be about 5 minutes in PhotoShop, but I imagine it took him hours and stacks of failed prints in the darkroom. But he's an outlier.
Great video!!! Loved it.
Thank you so much!!
Great video! I agree with all your points. The most interesting thing for me is that I have a limit on how many pictures I can take, so I need to be more selective with what I shoot, which at the same time makes each shot much more valuable emotionally to me. Another thing is it is much more physical in the current all-digital age. Also, I really like how using an old camera in an all-manual mode made me a better photographer because previously using modern cameras I would rely a lot on the tech that would do a lot instead of me
Yess totally!! My ultimate goal is to become a better photographer and to enjoy the process along the way! Thank you so much for watching! Your input means a lot to me!! ❤️📸
Great Video, but the music is wayy tooo loud! Keep the work up! And have a nice day <3
Thanks so much for the input! I’ll be sure to keep a check on that in my upcoming videos!
Great video, Laken!
Thanks so much!! That means a lot!!
Fun video to watch! Can’t wait for the next one
Glad you liked it!!
What a wonderfully assembled video. Best of luck to you 🎉🎉🎉
Thanks so much!! I really appreciate it!!
Really enjoyed this video and your insight. I agree with nostalgia being a big driving influence with shooting film. As well, I agree with the more tactile experience of using a film camera or putting on a record and having to shoot the whole roll or listen to the whole album. It's more of intimate experience where you have to commit yourself to it compared to their digital counterparts. Thank you for including me in your video and I'm excited to see what you capture!
Thanks so much for watching and again for letting me use some of your photos! Looking forward to shooting film for the first time!

Great intro. I’ve been watching about every video on Canon cameras. I’m going to replace a Cannon MK 11 n, which was the cutting edge for sports when I bought it. Good luck with your UA-cam channel, I’m subscribed.
Thanks soo much! Good luck with your camera purchase! There’s such good cameras on the market now. Can’t really buy a bad one
