I would go as far as to say that certain film stock don't even have a signature look. If I would do a blind test, I think 95% couldn't identify cinestill 50d, 400d, portra 400, gold 200, colorplus 200, fuji c200 etc.

“I’m honouring the life I’ve got” I relate to this so much! This was entertaining and very inspiring. The evolution is impressive. Thank you so much! Subscribed 😊 ps. Love your photos especially because of how much foreground you leave in the composition. I personally think it’s very beautiful and calming 😅

You need to understand that different lab has different processing methods which result in different colors. If you want to see how it works with your workflow, you need to do your own camera scanning setup and using negative lab pro to have a consistant comparison between this and other films

I really hope "The D" doesn't stand for, what I think it does

The names of which I forgott, but his dogs where really photogenic

prius photo was better

I used to use this stuff back in the 90s for band cover shots. ISO 3-20. Sadly, bulk loaded. The stuff is gone now :(

Yeah man, I feel like we could be friends IRL. I've had a similar journey. I work as a commercial director/dp and just got so sick of all the year, all the perfection, all the feedback on something being 1% not perfect enough. Then I tried shooting film photography and I fell in love. I get to shoot stuff that will never be perfect. There is no instant loop between post and production and I just have space to be a human enjoying my life around me. I take a shot and move on. My trip isn't about my photography. My photography is about my trip. If you know what I mean. I will never be popular with it and I really don't care. I just love looking at some of the snaps I've taken over the past 2 years. Film photography is almost like a therapy for artists in the digital age.

I’ve always wanted to do photos of suburban houses. I get very shy and nervous at the thought of doing it though.

love this video so much 🗣

I don’t like cinestill. If I want halation I go for harman phoenix

I'm only at the 2:30 minute mark, but this video is hilarious...cause that's exactly how it is. lol!!

this video is perfect in every way and it speaks to my heart! thank you Tommy! P.S. love you editing and you film photographs!

Try scanning as a black & white image and it will look much better. 👍🏻

Guys. It’s Vision3 250D. You are SUPPOSED to color grade it. That is the entire point of the film…

I bought, no joke, like 30 rolls during Black Friday for $7 because it was cheap and now.. I still have a lot of it to get through..

I take photos of houses in my town and I i strongly stand with all of these tips

Not sure about rules 1 and 2. I have to wait for warmer weather for my film camera. But i do use my digital messing with manual mode on it forcing me to do as much manual stuff as nessisary. And working with my lenses going through my kit to know which ones i like and which ones im keeping.

Brilliant video! Love the narration 🤣

I feel this dude, uploading weekly gets so tough to generate worthwhile video ideas, but batching content, and momentum is crucial!

never knew this existed (= machine), but saw it and was like "I need that in my life!"

Not the video I was expecting, but fun to watch. I was searching to see if anybody was crazy enough to literally convert a DSLR into a film camera. Because, in theory, I think it's possible. If you could remove the image sensor and added a way to store and advance the film, then all the exposure controls are there. I guess you could technically do it with a mirrorless camera to if it had a shutter certain.

do you and flyy still hang out?

1:09 who's the photographer at the bottom with the buzz cut? I used to follow him but I completely forgot his name

I shot one roll of 400D 35mm when it first came out and found the film to be overall unimpressive. It had its own unique look and colors were mostly accurate. However, I shot a series of sunset photos starting about 10 minutes before sunset. The sunset was unique in that all the colors were soft pastels--yellow, oranges and pink. Unfortunately the film rended these distinct colors as mostly green---pale pastel green. I just loaded my second roll of 400D. This time 120 film. Hoping for no big disappointments.

As someone who shot both 400D and it's true form, Vision3 250D. Go with the latter. You'll notice a difference.

It's almost as if processing is a variable or something!

I 100% feel this. Sometimes it is you getting in your own way, others it is trying to wear too many hats. You can be great at a few things or you can be okay at a lot of them. However sometimes it feels like you NEED to be great at everything and that's the frustration.

The intro had me rolling 😂

book recommendation - the war of art by Steven Pressfield. We need more of these vids man! stay shooting!

Cinestill does not make their own film. They order it direct from Kodak without the anti halation layer. It's literally just Kodak vision 3...

SantaColor 100 and Cinestill 400D are my absolute favourites

The only 400D video that matters. This film is trash, especially for the price. When it hits, 2-3 shots per roll, it's awesome. Mostly is a color casted mess.

The film is 💩

Thank you for this! I'm learning this exact same thing! I made a video about my perfectionism/creative procrastination (this is better). I'm proud of you for posting this! I know it's not easy! I'm subbing so I can stay up to date on what you do next!

So, most (if not all) "film" UA-camrs have no idea about the minutia of image processing (development, scanning, color negative conversion and color grading). Cinestill 400D is a cine film stock (Kodak Vision3 250D with remjet removed), meant to give highest consistency when handled, developed (ECN-2) and scanned correctly, having extremely low contrast to give the largest dynamic range possible (ever wondered how people like Quentin Tarantino and Christopher Nolan manage to get gorgeous results that exactly look the way the want it, using this exact film stock?) - which leads to "unusual" results if the process doesn't match the standards this film stock is made for (like inconsistent exposure, using the wrong chemicals, inconsistent scanning and inconsistent conversion)! For those who want consistent results with "normal" treatment - they should stick to C-41 stock (there at least the development is mostly correct, and those film stocks are meant for "everyday shooting"; getting inconsistent results is still very likely due to all the automatic changes in the conversion process, like NLP normally does). Or, for short: You can get any colors you want out of Kodak Vision3 250D if handled correctly - we amateurs just lack the consistency, tools, processes and practice to do so.

this video rips. infinitely relatable, dog.

Kinda ironic this guy quit after posting this video

😂😂😂😂 dude you’ve earned my subscription that was mad entertaining

Yes. Gimme more sir!

I've shot a bunch of 800T with a cc30m magenta filter and it *still* comes out green, at least when the halation doesn't shove it more toward red. Dagnabbit, scanners.

im going to watch this video every time I hit the wall. i have felt everyword of this video. thank you for making it

This video was hilarious 😂 😂 😂

Great photos and excellent video. I've only been shooting film for about 6 months but I find I use my digital camera to kind of "scout" shots and locations lol. Kind of like using the DSLR as the demo version of the album track film shot. I love how you said "Is that shot going to be any good? I don't know." lol I think that's what I like best about shooting film. After a while you just sort of get a feeling about things and if the shot will be any good. Subscribed to your channel.

The algorithm brought me here. “Liked” for the photography. Subbed for the dry humor.

Your work speaks for itself, good sir, keep at it! It’s hard to press publish - surprise, working on this myself, lol - but you are a great photographer (also a great darkroom tech) and I think everyone commenting here is excited to be on the journey with you. Van has created an amazing fraternity and we need to hold one another accountable to keep finishing our projects. This made me want to make things, thanks for sharing.

One day you'll realise the XA2 is better than the XA, damn I use that camera more than my Leica ahah

12 videos or 1 video per year, it doesn't matter if this is the quality of what you're producing and sharing with us

so glad I stumbled across this video!

Hey! Great video, with good editing, and good photos. Love the memes and the way you make it serious later in the video. Love the way you reflect on your own work, I think that's key to becoming a better photographer!
