Hola!! Que lastima que ya no hay de estas máquinas analógicas en muchas ciudades! Una pregunta, la cámara que se utiliza como es? :)

Your videos are outstanding. Please keep making them!

crazy… i thought it was some kind of polaroid process… never thought there is a full lab in there 👍

I saw a quick interview with the R&D department and grainydays. They said it is technically ISO 123 or something like that but over all testing came to the conclusion it should be sold as ISO 200. Also worth noting it's experimental film and will be refined over time.

The company itself (in a video interview) says the film is really 123 ISO. So closer to 100 than 200. I am shooting at +2/3 right now, still need to develop the roll and see. Trying it for the first time and after 25 years of not shooting film. Super excited regardless of what happens.

I have it in my camera now. Should have looked at this video before I put the film in. I dont know how I would go about the scaning process. Because the companies that do it dont really disclose what kind of scanners they use.

Este video me da tranquilidad después de ver mi primer rollo de Phoenix 200 con la Fuji Klasse. No fue mi culpa jaja

Oh. I've been wanting to learn how to scan and edit my own negatives for a while. Well, I guess this is as good an excuse as any, because I can't possibly make my Phoenix scans any worse than what they were from the lab.

This supposedly cheap film costs the same as PORTRA 160 in Paris (69 Euro for a pack of 5). I don't know why this one is presented as cheap. Furthermore, there is no film more summery than Portra 160.

loved every bit of it.

So good I found this video before putting my first roll of Phoenix 200 into the camera. I scan and process my negatives on my own so the colour issues aren't that big of a deal for me. The underexposure is though, and I can see that underexposing even by one stop is problematic. Would you say it's a good idea to shoot this film at ISO 100 and develop normally? I'm specifically asking about "developing normally" because I'm not sure the lab I develop negatives allows me to push/pull my film.

My experience with One Hundred is that on more than one occasion the roll of film has not been properly sealed or has come with some defect that causes light leaks that cause red streaks to appear in multiple exposures. And they are not flashes of light from the camera, because it has never happened to me with any Kodak, only with respooled film like Reflx Lab or Cinestill. Apart from this fact, the frames that come out well are great. - Mi experiencia con One Hundred es que en más de una ocasión el rollo de la película no ha estado bien sellado o ha venido con algún defecto que causa fugas de luz que hacen que aparezca franjas rojas en múltiples exposiciones. Y no son fugaz de luz de la cámara, porque nunca me ha ocurrido con ningún Kodak, únicamente con pelicula bobinada como Reflx Lab o Cinestill. Quitando este hecho, los fotogramas que salen bien son geniales.

I know that prices vary and it’s nice to a have this at 14€ with a different look and finer grain, but I think most people should really learn how to shoot Gold well. Once you have that down you can do so much with it and it’s still very affordable at a lot of places.

Nikonos for sure

Maybe I'm being a little harsh or overly demanding, but... if in 1966 the Olympus Pen FT could be made (I say this one and not the Pen F, because it has light metering), with incredible interchangeable glass lenses with which get bokeh without problem, completely manual, supreme quality, original in its design hiding the pentaprism, with a clean and elegant design... it is impossible to be excited about this camera, which is inferior in absolutely everything (except the weight...) . I know we live in another era, but hey, we should try to get closer to the bar of quality and design that was set in the middle of the last century...

The chemists themselves said the actual EI is 123.5 in Grainyday's video

Question: can you change the settings of Frontier prior to scanning to maybe help with the over the top contrast?

Really nice photos, especially the diptychs! You gave really good tips, thank you.

I for one am very disappointed in this camera. If memory serves, the Pentax Project promo videos kept emphasizing ease of use for beginners and the young crowd. Which a full auto focus point & shoot would have been the way go if you wanted to draw in so called beginners. Or something like the Nikon N55, a point & shoot SLR. You're gonna tell me things like zone focus and twin frame are things beginners are going to care about let alone even know about? That said, I will be buying one only to say, yes, I'm support the film community and want to see it survive, even if means purchasing a $500 Holga.

As a lab, you should have touched on the extra cost and headache it is to scan twin frame film.

Excellent video 😊!

Yessssss :)

Amigo no agarres el lav mic. Va en el cuello

What a waste of money bro.these kids just like the most useless and expensive garbage. Yes it's 500.00 dollars, plus the film and development. Just get a used Olympus micro 43 with a nice prime, and a pocket Kodak printer for 250.00 all together

I'm going to buy this film camera. It's perfect for some projects. And hey man your videos look so stunning, and sharp. What camera are you using? Thanks

Thank you for sharing, interesting images from your photo walk. I ordered one, not because I am in need of another camera that takes film, I have plenty of them, but to ensure that this film project proves successful and that further cameras with different features can be built in the future. From the positive sales initially it looks like TKO and the team will have the opportunity to continue their film camera revival. I can't wait to see what they come up with in the future, until then I will have fun learning to play with the 17

I was on the fence, but this sold me. I will buy it to honor the designer.

Thank you for putting this together.

I think the camera is amazing camera. Though not for all! As a camera for documenting, for your family, to hand to friends etc it’s so nice because you don’t have to feel bad for wasted frames… It doesn’t try to be your RZ67 or your M6. It’s an advanced point and shoot luckily without autofocus!!! The perfect fit for me and I can’t wait for it to arrive.

Wow-what a great interview! Now I understand the flathead screws. I’m more of a hex drive myself.

Nice answers from the designer.

Now I understand why the camera costs $500. Custom made screws.

All these photos looked kinda out of focus?

I think Pentax had a real chance to contribute to the revival and preservation of film photography but instead, they chose to make a toy. Shame on you Pentax!

Estupendo reportaje, felicidades y un saludo desde Pucela City

It’s simply a software issue, given that the algorithms are not prepared for a purple base, isn’t it? It’s not the film itself.

This film looks like it has about 8 stops of dynamic range. How you can achieve a this in analog is mind boggling. That being said, I will still buy a couple rolls, if only to say thank you for there actually being a new stock on the market.

Because of your blog article I bought the domke bag for my switzerland trip recently - I could see the outline of my rolls on one of the CT scanners in Doha but buying the bag meant no more asking hand checks! before buying this bag for years I’d get my poor film rolls scanned and I’d notice the shadows looking off and grainy. Good tip about overexposing because I do the same too. Glad you wrote the article but watching the video gave me some peace. Now waiting for my first two rolls of film to be developed 😅 thanks for sharing!

Yo that's really cool

Habéis probado a hacer proceso cruzado con esta película?

I love that this film is not just just a Kodak/Fuji look-alike. As an artist I love the unpredictability. It is like surfing a wave. Sometimes it gives you joy, and sometimes it just dumps you in the water. My biggest worry is that Harmon/Ilford will replace this with a more "true to life" version that is very predictable, and then there will be no reason to choose it other than price. This film, on the other hand gives plenty of reason to choose it as a creative tool, much like choosing a Lomography film. Not so much true to life, as creative and stylized. Kodak and Fuji are bland, and unexciting in comparison. Phoenix is much more a roller coaster, with, as I would expect, results that range from blah to wonderful. You cannot cook something delicious without having the stove hot enough to burn the fingers :) I see lots of burnt fingers, but I also see some deliciousness.

love it

Love Kodak Gold in both 120 and 135. Only complaint is it likes to curl making it tricky to scan (for me).

1:07 who was drunk!?

Just got my first Phoenix film back. Rated by the DX at 200 in an auto camera. Scan myself Epson flatbed at 2400 dpi. Also cheap Lidl camera type. Really interesting results. Flatbed fine but pretty dense, except when using flatbed software and it came up different, auto correction unexpected. In the cheap Lidle, SilverCrest on label it looks like Lomo Redscale. So different. At least it is sold as experimental. I think they might be aiming for a wide latitude film for all the basic cameras now out there. 50 to 800 asa!! I am going to get some more and see how it works in a Lomo Sardina and a Pentax K1000. Hopefully I will get a shot at sunny Spain as well as dull rainy England. But I agree, the scanning difference is really interesting.

Desde Safe Light Berlin también me recomendaron usarlo en 125

Thank you so much for this video. It made me understand why my scans had that hard colour crush. I was beginning to think my light meter was broken. Next time I will go to another lab that uses Noritsu here in Brisbane, Australia. Keep up the great work and videos for the community. Muchas gracias!

Thank you this is a really important video

Pedazo de vídeo, muchas gracias chicos. Justo estoy probando Phoenix como usuaria principiante y creo que habéis salvado mis fotos 😅
