I mostly shoot with primes since I typically do portraits but I think this is a great all rounder lens especially if you are starting out with the GFX system.

Lovely! Do you know which scanner your lab uses? The colors are so nice! Mine has the Fuji frontier SP3000 but I feel there's something missing in the quality.

Damn, these photos are gorgeous. Nice video!

It's an absolutely amazing lens.I still got mine and I used a lot.I didn't buy the 32-64....it's a keeper

What lab do you use?

these pics are great dude

I really loved Superia, and I don’t think that this film fully replaces it. But I do shoot it because it’s cheap and I want to support Fuji so hopefully they bring back my favorite stock.

Thanks Michael. Will take up your recommendation and expose it at ISO 250.

Great video! Beautiful images and definitely great tips. Keep up the good work bro 💪🏻

My favorite everyday film stock!

Good beginner film stock. I love the way it looks with flash. I've pushed this stock pretty hard in tons of different situations from sub-freezing Indiana blizzards to 110 degree California desert and it can take a beating. Overexposure by a stop or two on this stock is pretty good like you said, but most stocks are that way. After about 2 stops negatives turn white, then after purple. I overexposed a roll once in bright daylight while using flash on a 60th of a second (that's what the sync on the camera I was using at the time) and it produced very different shifts, mostly purple but some green. One of the favorite shots I ever took was on that roll

Remjet isn't for static I believe, but rather it's carbon that protects the film when spooled in motion picture cameras.

Super interesting. Will definitely give it a shot. (Pun intended lol).

I'm wondering where is the graveyard? In Denton as well ? Thank you

Thanks for this video! I’ve recently started to get into film and just bought my first film camera-this was very informative!

I'm really missing fujifilm.

It’s too bad about the current prices of film being that so many young photographers are really getting into the magic of film. So many great emulsions have been discontinued, but I’m hoping the companies making film will be coming out with new, cheaper film stocks to help drive this analog resurgence. During the years of my most prolific use of film, a roll only cost about $2 and $3 more for lab processing. The best thing about film is what you create with it using whatever film is around.

Your photos really inspire me. Somewhat that's how I want my photos to look like. Thanks man!

Hmm, I'll give it a try. I have a 3 pack from Christmas in the fridge. People on reddit say it looks like Ultramax but toned down. Great vid!

probably my favorite film as well and have taken some of my best shots with it, my friend and I call it "Garbage film" since it's so easy to find and on the cheaper side for color film

What amazes me is Fuji. The Japanese culture knows that the film market is growing and they had the means to keep it going and be what Ilford is to back and white as they are to color film.

Good vid. Obvious question regarding flare...do you use a lens hood? I've recently bought a Canon 7, which is very nice, but yours looks better in my opinion.

I’d recommend the 50 1.7. Image circle is similar to the f2, and a bit glowy wide open, but even at f2 it gets very sharp. By the way, I adapt mamiya 645 glass on the 100s and I swear that out resolves the sensor! Especially if you get a focal reducer such as the Kipon. More pricy though but cheaper than GF glass.

the 50mm 1.4 is my favorite k-mount lens in that focal length. definitely check that one out if you come across one! shout out to your Milkcrate cafe shirt! that’s family right there!

Woah, the algorithm did me wonders here. I adapted this lens from a pentax film camera to sony apsc as my first semi-fast prime option. The equivalent focal length I got was a joy for concert photography. While the lens isn't considered super fast wide open, I got some beautiful bokeh that holds its own against any of the more expensive lenses I've since picked up. It's very cool to know it's image circle can cover medium format, especially considering a copy is sitting at 25 AUD (17 USD) on my local marketplace. This lens is truly an undervalued gem!

Try the Canon EF 40mm F2.8 STM. If you are looking for small vintage lenses for the GFX.

Awesome video bro!

My 85/1.4 AI-S doesn’t vignette on my GFXs and 60/2.8 AF-D Macro is also pretty vignette-free. In case you have them lying around.

These are great shots Mikey!❤❤❤❤

great vid, but I think there is something wrong with your lens? I have the J12 as well and its actually really sharp all around with not much vignetting. Maybe get it serviced?

Great video ! Thanks for the recommendation! Gotta finish my roll soon. So far I shot 50d and 250d…definitely need to try out 200t as well

I have this lens and I love it! In addition to what you said, the smoothness of the zoom ring is amazing to me. Maybe it’s because I haven’t had many zoom lenses, but it’s so smooth! My only other zoom lens is the 70-300mm on x-mount, and the zoom is much less smooth. My only hang up with this lens, and it’s small, is that it gets soft when you focus very close. It would be so fun to take photos of small things if it didn’t get so soft.

FIRST!

I took a roll of fuji 400 and cinestill 800t to a foo fighers concert (front of the pit) last year in a small town called big sky in south Montana. Keep in mind I shot this on a canon AE-1 with a 50mm f1.2 prime lens but I pushed it to 1600 iso (and maybe even 3200 iso as I was new to film at the time). The fuji 400 blew me away at how resiliant it was and I didnt even understand how it worked at all but the fuji roll took a lot of the best photos I had shot on that night. The place where 800t shined was shots with red in them. Incredible film for the orice its going for in my opinion

I shoot a lot with the Ql 17 Giii and love that rangefinder and surprisingly has a really sharp lens

Your beach photos will never be improved by a digital camera. Youre an excellent photographer but you are going through a typical restless phase. Keep your Pentax 6x7 and 45f4 and never look back.

Nice shots! Love the colors. The 35-70 is amazing! It’s so sharp and small and affordable (for a GFX lens). It makes so much more sense to me than the 32-64 (is that right?). That one gives you a tiny bit wider fov at the wide end and constant f4, but is more expensive and heavier. You REALLY have to know you need those features for it to make more sense than the 35-70.

I buy 300 foot rolls for about $150 from production companies. That works out to around $3 a roll

This is literally my favorite stock of all time. The only reason I don’t use it more often is that in the UK the price is ridiculous. It’s about $30 a roll nowadays 😔

The dynamic range of this film is actually pretty thin. Slide film usually doesn't handle overexposure as well aas negative film. If you liked this one try Fuji Provia100F for some portraits.

Overexposing transparency film is so counterintuitive. When I used to shoot a lot of slide film like Kodachrome, I almost always exposed it for the highlights. So good to know! Most of the Ektachrome 100 stuff I’ve seen on the Net seems so warm compared to the stuff from the 70s and 80s but your images really show that the cooler greens and blues are still there.

Great video! Good info!

I got scammed big time. I ordered Superia X-tra 400 online, 2 rolls for 40 euros. They even showed the box on the website. Instead i got the fujifilm 400😅😅 i contacted them and they claimed it's the same as superia. They don't even refund me.

I just bought this camera and love it. It has so much to offer with film simulations, skin smoothing, grain and more. I’ve got some old bronica s2 lenses I want to try.

the best camera money can buy is the one you can afford (also definitely not anything fujifilm)

Interested in the Pentax lens review!

I subscribed

i dont think that was lab's fault. In fact, there is a large number of portra400（120 / July 2024） were not properly preserved during transportation. You'd better not use those films to shoot serious projects

35mm 500T smokes Porta every day of the week. No need for 120.

Hello. You made a very good video. I'm asking for advice. If I were to choose a range finder between VL / VI-L / P, which one do you recommend I choose? Why? I'm new to this type of camera. And chrome lenses, size 50 mm. 1.4 or 1.2, which one is better?
