Congratulations on 100+ Subscribers! I haven’t used the CineStill BWXX, but I’ve used the FPP version (24 exposures and DX coded) and XX from a Japanese seller (36 exposures and DX coded) and have really enjoyed the results. Love the street scene at 4:54 - Well Done!
Hey Stefano Eastman XX never had a halation layer. It’s just an old-school film which tends to have this blooming effect. It definitely needs the correct developer. Developing times seem to be longer so using something like CineStill DF96 is going to destroy a film’s highlights and shadows. For this film I even recommend something like a Pyrocat or Pyro 510 developer with minimal agitation.
I didn't hate this film, but it's not for me. It was super muddy for me. I shot it at 250 and all outdoor. I don't recall getting any lights in my shots, so I missed getting some hallation... Great video as always, dude.
Get rid of the tablet. Very difficult to follow with the tablet being moved around in your hands all the time. Very unsteady. Plus you are reducing the image size by a lot using that. You are only taking up 1/3rd of the screen with it.
