@@Ranicacameras Thanks! I was going by the light meter app and doing reciprocity the later parts at the second church was actually darker and overcast than how the action cam strapped to my chest shows. I would not be surprised if I just did the shots without adding any reciprocity and would just be fine. Plan to use the wheel in future. You got more experience than I 😉

@@PavelBakhur Thank you for watching! 😊

@@neilmartin8143 Heya! I always just double irregardless of what film I use but I scan my negatives and fix if needed..though this time it didn't need anything. So I guess double for Kodak films is ok 😉

Thanks! Pretty nice balance with sharpness and just enough pinhole characteristics.

Thanks for watching. I'm sure there are but I have yet to know of any groups local to me...it would be a nice thing to be part of!

Pinhole has soul! 🙂

Thanks for watching!

Hi Wendy! There is a bunch of factors going on. Long story short, 35mm is generally a lot softer than medium format with pinhole. Fomapan has that soft dreamlike look (plus this was expired Foma but not sure if that makes a difference) The sharper Pano images from the 35 were Kentmere 100 (the guest houses,the pier for example) and the soft ones (like the balcony and the lifeboat) were so badly developed Kodak Gold that I had to clean up that it just lost detail. On top of that I have just discovered today from scanning a negative at home that the scans I got back from the lab were too low resolution. Also it was windy at the coast! ;-)

@@irresponsiblepictures7451 All of those factors make sense. It is all part of the pinhole world. Thanks for replying.

@@wcwendychapman Thank you for watching and reading my long winded response! 🙂

Thank you for watching, Graham! 🙂

Really glad you enjoyed the video! Thank you for making such enjoyable pinhole cameras. Scott Buckley's music is really good but not always fitting with this kind of content. Never heard of Greg Foat before but just checked his stuff out... I love it!

I try to keep the channel about pinhole and film mostly but basically I just made a hole in a body cap and screwed in the lens until I nailed infinity (was a bit of trial and error) then just glued it. There are many of these m12 lenses on the usual chinese websites. www.aliexpress.com/w/wholesale-3.6mm-m12.html Lens is surprisingly good for what it is.. Its only 2mpx so any pixel peeping will look really soft but looking at the whole image is quite nice actually. Some fisheye distortion is present (I used a sigma 4.5mm fisheye correction in lightroom) as is some magenta in the corners (not a problem for b&w) Very cheap solution and no need to focus..just point and shoot!

Phew! I'm not the only nutter! Going to have to ask... the origin of the name?

@@irresponsiblepictures7451 It's a polish female firstname for Margo from a friend

@@kevinthephotographer9346 Heya! Probably the only decent shot of the day tbqh! 😄

Very limited (I was told two were made) as paper negatives typically don't sell as well as film ones. Paper only for this one!

@@michaellong9526 The beast is 6x17 and the manbag is 10x4 and strictly uses paper only. From my understanding there are only two in existence and James from RSS is the only owner of the other. He may make one..always worth asking! ;-) Thanks for watching!

@@grahamhutton3129 I try to not get caught up with the reciprocity thing but for this video I just doubled the exposure of what my light meter gave me. I generally do it for all the films I use in pinhole.

@@pixelpeter3883 Thanks! Quite pleased with this months output. Indeed the cow shot is cluttered with cows losing that focus point. Moving over would of looked better...I always notice I could of nailed a better shot after viewing the video but...as they say...it was spur of the moment!

@@wcwendychapman Thanks Wendy! Really happy with those shots (was quite a challenge to get to the house of wessex)

Thanks! The 8x10 is a big ol thing to carry around but the images are really nice!

No problem...The 35s took just over a month and the 35 arrived around 2 and half weeks to the UK. It does sit at Minsk for quite some time then turned up quickly once it left.

Thank you! And thanks for taking the time to watch! 🙂

Glad you enjoyed! 😀

@@jondr.8933 Same kind of camera. Also reminds me of a Pentax auto 110 in look. I'm pretty impressed with the bellami...might become my no1 film compact. Yet to see what how lens handles colour.

Btw thankyou for your support! Really appreciated! :-)

Гэтае відэа нагадала мне часы, калі я рабіў па 16 і болей здымкаў 4х5 пінхолам на паперу ў дзень. І мне гэта падабалася. Цікавыя былі часы. Вельмі крутое відэа. Дзякуй.

@@Ranicacameras 16? Hahah now that is mad! Did you carry a suitcase around? 🤣

Hiya! When level there is little distortion but if you have it pointing up or down you will get distortion. The spirit level on the top helps greatly. I'm actually selling my 6x17 (as I have the large format now) so let me know if you're interested!

@@irresponsiblepictures7451 Thanks for the reply. Ok, thanks, that gives me an idea of what the 6x17 could do. Obviously film hungry with only 4 shots a roll. I'll give it a thought, thank you.

It definitely benefits with good or even light hitting the subject. It's great for woodlands however!

Yay! Sorry for spreading the bug!

Thanks! And thank you for watching my vids and subscribing! 🙂

@@wcwendychapman Hiya! Thanks for watching! Indeed Ranica have got a good shutter system with their cameras...Would love the multiformat and nearly got one during the early promo price but couldn't afford it in time...ah well! one day! 😄

@@Dwarvenchef hopefully they came out great! Thanks for watching!

@@Dwarvenchef I plan to just keep it pinhole focussed from here on out. More enjoyable and rewarding than gear and digital vids! Thanks for watching!

It is but I longer have it...to darn big! 😅

Some swear by correct reciprocity but some just shoot not taking it into account. I would say its probably recommended to use proper reciprocity if you want to make direct prints from the negative. I scan and edit and so far I have had no issues with the films I have used by just doubling the exposure.

@@jondr.8933 Awesome! Mine came in about 2 weeks. Hope you get some great shots with it. Always there in the pocket for whatever comes up. I just recently received the 35 panoramic as a companion. Has an even more effective shutter design. Hopefully these little guys will last for years. Great for trips with minimal bulk!

I find it very detailed for a 35mm pinhole. www.flickr.com/photos/jondr/53819846110

Thank you! I try to take timeless images with old cameras like this...thankfully the modern cars were parked behind the long grass.

Thanks for watching!

Me too! 😁

Agree but surprised it wasn't too far off (pinhole is about that groovy softness anyway) I do think it'll be fine for small prints, online sharing snd tge like but not so much for anything large.

You are correct of course. It's just so convenient to drop.in your pocket with a mini tripod. It's the sort of thing you can just have with you, without planning to go out and do photography

Hey! Thanks!! Images are straight out of camera (bit of contrast fixing in post) with no crop.
