I like this film a lot for how closely it resembles Tritanopia, the colorblindness I suffer in one eye. Sure it's not a 1 to 1 reproduction but it's genuinely a useful tool to help show my friends how I see.
@6:47 So agree with you Jason! Despite the questionable look some of these experimental film stocks may have, it's great to have a company still passionate about developing new stocks and serving a slowly (re)growing userbase. Looking forward to your next videos, cheers mate!
It's certainly an interesting film stock. It works nice on architecture photography like you did here, because the focus on the photo is the shapes of the buildings rather than the color, which this stock mostly washes out. The photo at 3:17 is my favorite of the video
I never did get to shoot "the Turq" but decided to pre-order the first new batch to try. I think it, like Purple, looks better in 120 because the grain is pretty prominent in 35. I used to not understand these films, but Purple REALLY got me seeing the world a little differently and shooting different things and I love the final output and shoot it regularly now. Turquoise will push my limits as to what I may like just like Metropolis hasn't really excited me, but your shots on "the Turq" are pretty amazing, and yeah, if they made 4x5 or 8X10 it would be hella impressive and surreal. Some people don't get it, and that's cool, but I love that most of the comments are supporting Lomo for producing something new, even if it's just swapping the dye layers two different ways (purple and turquoise)
"Turquoise is actually been around in the past, but it was discontinued by Lomography way before Fuji made discontinuing film ... cool" - this line is just pure Kodak Gold my sir.
suuuuper stoked for this stock. I pre-ordered a bunch of 35 and 120 when they released it last fall, so June can't come soon enough. I agree in that it's awesome that a film company is putting resources into more experimental film stocks to appease us weirdos who like shooting it. I will also say that your choice to shoot architecture in high contrast scenes really lends to the look and was a smart choice. That said, I'm probably going to be shooting some mountain landscapes with my first roll because there's diddly for interesting architecture where I live.
I could find this one useful in some conceptual/psychedelic shoots depending on the location unlike lomo pink which always feels tacky and gimmicky to me no matter the subject.
With regards to Lomo’s ISO range on their Lomochrome stocks, my understanding is that the film is a base ISO 400 stock but they’re saying it’ll work fine 1-2 stops over exposed.
I may be a bit too narrow minded to shoot fringe film stock, gimme some Tri-X and Portra. Too funny at 5:20, that was great. Sport'n a new lens for the M6? I musta missed its debut. Next time your road trip takes you to Northern CA, check out Filoli House and Garden.
for some reason my phone (huawei p8 lite 2017) takes the same pictures when I shoot in dng format with lightroom, awesome stuff, you don't even need film if you want to shoot that way also you can invert the colors in photoshop using the hue slider, then everything looks more or less normal, but the grass becomes red/purple
Some of those shots are so dang cool. I love the one under that walkway with the columns where it’s a bit reflective. Could you do a tutorial on the end clip photos (that look like video) some day?
Talking about Lomo, would be great to see you revisit Metropolis, that new 2021 formula looks great, but I have yet not seen anyone shoot it other than the photos Lomo released
I converted a digital camera to be able to shoot infrared light - this reminds me of some shots I’ve taken. Pretty cool a film stock achieves the same look! 😎👍🏻
I shot at the Villa a few years ago with a friend’s Mamiya 7 and my not so trusty Minolta Hi-Matic AF2. The Mamiya stuff was just ok and the only good 35mm shots were ruined due to a loose internal shade/frame stencil thing (idk) blocking the emulsion. There were things I’ll never be able to replicate on that roll and I don’t think I’ll ever recover from it lmao
Normally I don't care for their experimental stuff... But I vibe with this. Can I do the same thing in Lightroom? Sure, but where's the fun in that? -(Actually a lot of fun, but shh.)-
this film stock actually started selling in Tokyo...im gonna see for myself if the hype is worth it :D compared to Lomography Purple cheers wish they made a 120 version theres only 35mm atm
A few of these shots looked like paintings. Actually, at the beginning of the video I thought they were painting until the video started getting into the meat of what we were looking at. There’s a very liminal spaces, sterile, isolationism to the colors. Maybe there’s a use theres trying to capture that
Oh, and I think both "Turq and the Purp" shoot better at ISO 200 and are probably its natural ISO based on the shots I've seen and how I shoot Purple now. I've been trying to understand why Lomo wouldn't just say that, but I think at ISO 400 the effects of the dye switching and base color are more extreme and maybe they think that's giving users "more look for their money"? Purple at ISO 200 is the bomb.
correction: it's "Ms Lomography"
not gonna lie, this is the perfect Vaporwave film stock
Weird, somehow inspiring, funny in a twisted way, and borderline depressing at the same time. Love the film stock though!
Best way to describe him
welcome

Good stuff pals,

They're shooting at the Getty Villa if anyone is curious

Nothing like sitting down with a fresh Ice Cold Coca Cola Classic and watching some Grainy Days.
You mean Nuka cola
I freaking love this film stock! It’s such a unique feeling that it captures! Not for everything or every day but definitely fun sometimes!
Looks fun and unique. Grateful to lomography for producing new film stocks.
This film stock radiates huge Neil Krug vibes and I love it!
Lomo Lobster, Purple and Turquoise all looks like a dream. They all remind me of dreams and the amount of strangeness it gives
Man this is the second video i see on your channel and i already know you run the dopest photography channel in the history of yt.
YES I COULD FEEL IT!

Can’t wait. I had my pre order in as soon as they announced it. Great shots. Love the vibe of this film.
Babe, wake up. New grainydays video

I agree. Nasty as hell!
But very fun. Lomo makes some interesting films for sure.
I could find this one useful in some conceptual/psychedelic shoots depending on the location unlike lomo pink which always feels tacky and gimmicky to me no matter the subject.
you mean Lomo Purple?
the feelings when Jason uploads is synonymous with a sneeze but better, if you catch my drift ;)
When grainydays and bad flashes post at the same time, you know its gonna be a good day !
With regards to Lomo’s ISO range on their Lomochrome stocks, my understanding is that the film is a base ISO 400 stock but they’re saying it’ll work fine 1-2 stops over exposed.
why are you so good at what you're doing
Perfect example of big brain thinking! Love the video intro
The week is made. My sacrifices of Kodak Gold 200 were well received by the photography gods.
Was having a bit of a shit today today, glad to see this upload
This turquoise film gave the images a religious touch, brilliant
Was waiting to see if Jason would try this out
I've got a 5 pack of this on preorder. I'm excited to have some of this on deck for those extra trippy ideas
I may be a bit too narrow minded to shoot fringe film stock, gimme some Tri-X and Portra.
Too funny at 5:20, that was great.
Sport'n a new lens for the M6? I musta missed its debut.
Next time your road trip takes you to Northern CA, check out Filoli House and Garden.
The key to enjoying steamed vegetables is to ladle butter over them, then shake on the salt and pepper until you run out. Simple!
Definitely want to try out that film stock!
i’m naming my firstborn after you jason
If Lomography can do this, then Kodak can bring back Aerochrome
Make a video analysing your best exploits.
I loooveee your large format work!!
for some reason my phone (huawei p8 lite 2017) takes the same pictures when I shoot in dng format with lightroom, awesome stuff, you don't even need film if you want to shoot that way
also you can invert the colors in photoshop using the hue slider, then everything looks more or less normal, but the grass becomes red/purple
i just found u because i was interested in lomography, but you funny camera man, good job. +1 sub and +200 social credits
I love the film, great video.
Rewatching old grainydays videos to keep the thoughts away
Lomo purple/turquoise as super 8 would be neat
When you find a great film and grainydays already has a video about it.
Excited for the rolls I preordered, but it’ll probably be something I shoot on a rare occasion. Wonder what it might look like with color filters
It definitely has more in common with black and white than it does with color.
wow these pictures are so fun and I actually like them a lot! I wish I can try one too.
Some of those shots are so dang cool. I love the one under that walkway with the columns where it’s a bit reflective. Could you do a tutorial on the end clip photos (that look like video) some day?
Glad you didn't forget about the video
Really like the shot at 3:34.
I don't usually love gimmicky photos, but these have a cool look.
oh, I bought some of this last year. still waiting for it to arrive.
I feel like it's better than the purple. warmth and intriguing,
can't wait to shoot!
If you invert only the colors and not luminance it kinda looks something like Aerochrome. could be useful
Cool video man! I never used to be into these weird films either, and I still am nkt super into them, but I would be keen to give it a crack!
Talking about Lomo, would be great to see you revisit Metropolis, that new 2021 formula looks great, but I have yet not seen anyone shoot it other than the photos Lomo released
Looks nice! It would be interesting to see what the film negatives look like. They could have pretty nice colors right after the scan
Not even finished the video but you lookin snazzy in that red jacket my man.
Could you do a video on which lenses you would recommend for film photography?
wake up honey, the new grainydays video is here
I converted a digital camera to be able to shoot infrared light - this reminds me of some shots I’ve taken. Pretty cool a film stock achieves the same look! 😎👍🏻
lol Cinestill was listening to this video and was like "we give you...options".
Lessss go graindays!
I pre-ordered this! Can’t wait to waste it 🙃
I shot at the Villa a few years ago with a friend’s Mamiya 7 and my not so trusty Minolta Hi-Matic AF2. The Mamiya stuff was just ok and the only good 35mm shots were ruined due to a loose internal shade/frame stencil thing (idk) blocking the emulsion. There were things I’ll never be able to replicate on that roll and I don’t think I’ll ever recover from it lmao
I never was high yet, but this film made me feel like I was, I like it
been waiting for this
really wish lomo made any of their stocks in sheets
You and me both
The haircut Is looking fresh.
AESTHETIC
I can see myself using it. Quite interesting.
I use film to take pictures of fleeting moments (aka snapshots). They low key smack. I was wondering if its actually a waist of money now 😅
It reminds me a lot of two strip technicolor!!
Ryan gosling does photography using weird ass film
Damn Jason out here looking like a snack 👀
The statue was looking at your summicron 28 for sure
Normally I don't care for their experimental stuff... But I vibe with this.
Can I do the same thing in Lightroom? Sure, but where's the fun in that?
-(Actually a lot of fun, but shh.)-
Skin tones aside, some of these shots came out neat.
Although everything looks like a Foals album cover.
I need it like that sweet jacket
this film stock actually started selling in Tokyo...im gonna see for myself if the hype is worth it :D compared to Lomography Purple cheers wish they made a 120 version theres only 35mm atm
Can we have your next video in a PM super enthusiastic tone 😆 keep up the great content
Moira Rose would be proud of how you pronounced “Behbeh”
Wanna do a tutorial on that enlarger you have over there ;)
I like it. Probably should shoot a roll. Lomo send me that test roll
Great video
What JG Ballard books would be like if they were photos.
A few of these shots looked like paintings. Actually, at the beginning of the video I thought they were painting until the video started getting into the meat of what we were looking at. There’s a very liminal spaces, sterile, isolationism to the colors. Maybe there’s a use theres trying to capture that
Has anyone been able to find it? I seriously can’t find it online anywhere
Oh, and I think both "Turq and the Purp" shoot better at ISO 200 and are probably its natural ISO based on the shots I've seen and how I shoot Purple now. I've been trying to understand why Lomo wouldn't just say that, but I think at ISO 400 the effects of the dye switching and base color are more extreme and maybe they think that's giving users "more look for their money"? Purple at ISO 200 is the bomb.
Yep. It basically gives you Houses of the Holy shit.
Thank you for this informative video. This film stock goes in the NO list.
Tbh with purple i had super underexposed shots unless i shot it at 100 iso. So I pre-ordered these thinking it was going to be a 100 iso boy
oh thank god a grainydays video about lomo turqoise, i can form an opinion on it
Hey, where did you get that brass soft shutter release? I dig its look!
FORBIDDEN TEMPTATION XD
Making that connection to Led Zeppelin! Solid m8
How do you make those animated photos at the end of each video ?
good job
Me waiting for Jamie Windsor to make lightrooms preset for this film stock.
