Good job, man! Glad to see Cinestill 50D being used on the Mamiya 645, there aren't many videos about it out there! 50ASA also gives a chance to use that f/1.9 from your 80mm hehe
No real conclusions on the utility or quality of the film made here. Note that most who use Cinestill color neg film will end up cross processing it in C-41, taking a modest color shift hit. As for cost, in 120, Ektar 100 is around $7.75 - $8; Portra 160 is around $8.25. Cinestill 50d is $14.00. For most folks, the price alone is a deal killer.
Yeah, as a test roll that I was just trying out. It is expensive for sure, but it is a different type of film. It hits different. So you are comparing it to normal production film, this film is cinema film that they do not make commercially available for 35mm and 120. There are a few people taking this film for 35mm (kodak vision 50d) and rolling it, but 120 there is no one out there doing it. To my understanding, this too has the halation layer removed so should have that glow that the 800t has as well but in whites. I didn't try it on this shoot but have 1 more roll to mess with for that. The cost comes with a small company doing small batches of the removal and pre-processing of the film. a lot of the specialty film from small companies is in this price range. another benefit is with cine film, there is/should be less apparent grain and a bit more latitude for pushing and pulling. so yeah, I agree there is cheaper film. I shot in some pretty bright daylight in this video and feel like my images didnt help make this film shine. Ill try it in another way soon.
@@film_friends Hi Will & original commenter. I am a burgeoning 120 film shooter still finding my way. Firstly Will, I loved your video. Lots of effort, production and as was said doing stuff others aren't. I personally would like more information in your vids. Say what you said here at the start of the vid about glow in the whites, it tells me why to buy this film. 'Push & Pull', what? Do you mean +6 stops -4 stops or up the ISO....? tell us what we can & can't do with this film. Why would we cross process? Is it just to reduce cost? Why spend it in the first place? Whats the benefit? Mention in the vid how you processed it. What solution etc & why? We are watching your channel to be inspired (which we definitely are!) and for learning answers we get nowhere else. I don't want to spend years getting to where I need to be with my photography, tell me up front....
Hey! I really appreciate your comment, and I totally would love to include a lot of that info. To break it down I try to talk about stuff in multiple videos as to not do too much repetition or over explanation. Try to keep things simple. Also the push pull processing is very confusion to a lot of people, that needs its own video! Another reason for not tooo too much info is my amount of time for making these. I’m not a full time YT person at the moment so pumping these videos out is a lot of work on top of my job. More information in them takes more time to edit which I sadly don’t have, but by watching my channel and supporting me you get me closer to being able to do more! So thank you!
Amazing! Love this so much!
Thank you!!
Heck yea loved the shots!
