Cool content. Please try and keep the video camera stable, eg. the part with the green moss on the stairs. Good shots of the butterfly - I didn't expect them to be so sharp.
Congratulations on the new UA-cam channel, Mike! You’re a natural in front of the camera. Nice video number one! Look forward to more videos, maybe a short tour of the lab with the team. This new film has very saturated colors even with the cloudy day light you had. The yellows, reds and greens are so vibrant! The yellow areas on the butterfly and that spear-shaped flower just popped out at you. Definitely not like Kodak Gold 200! Look forward to testing this film as soon as I receive it from you! Best of luck with the channel! Anthony 👏
It seems like this film does very strong halation, and Harman compensates for this by making the film have very cold tones. I think I would prefer this film if they made it overall more warm so that the halation would work with the rest of the colors, not against them. The minicooper photo was a good example of this, the top was beige because white + halation, but the body was very dark red, and the leaves were blue-ish green. But ofcourse, then they would need to make the red even more sensitive, leading to even more halation... I do like halation, but there does have to be a limit somewhere. Perhaps they will figure out a halation limiting layer sometime
Great observation! The film does seem to have strong halation. Can’t wait to see what they come up with next as proceeds will be going towards additional development.
You seriously discredit yourself by adding the fake shutter/film advance sound. It's a Leica you are using, without mirror slap and motor wind. What an insult to Leica!! 👎
I am the video editor….i did not mean to bring shame and dishonor to the Leica Shutter….the sound was just meant as a transition to show the picture not to try to emulate the immaculate beauty of the Leica shutter. Sorry I am a 35mm film noob. We will fix this on the next video and you can let us know if you approve. 😉
Love this video and I need a Lego Phoenix for my desk! Thank you so much for putting this together:)
Totally! It was the perfect Lego set for the film :)
This is so cool! Love the mini cooper shot.
Mike's the man!
That intro was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you!!! We had fun making that! I will be doing a video on that shoot soon.
100%
We agree!
Let’s Go!!! Great video 😉 was a blast!
Yes it was!
Love it! Those butterfly frames were beautiful. I'll have to pick some of this up to try out. Looking forward to future videos! 👍🏼
Thanks! Glad we nailed focus on that with the 75mm f/1.5!
@reformedfilmlab The fake shutter sound is shameful. Do you do not deserve to even in possession of a Leica.
6:45 great photo
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
Really wish i got my greasy mits on some of this film before it sold out. I’m actually a big fan of how it looks.
We have plenty in stock on our site!
Thanks for the video and sample images. Small gripe from me - the m6 with that horrendous added digital shutter sound.
Hah, I thought we’ll need to for sure get that classic Leica shutter in future videos after it came back from editing. Note taken :)

Great feedback! Yes, I was pleasantly surprised on how well that photo turned out.

Thanks, Anthony! Stay tuned for the lab tour…
8:18 the angle was better. Good to see samples from more subdue light ...
Yesss!!!!❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

Halation can be reduced by exposing for the midtones and making sure that you shoot in consistent light:)
Music is annoying, when it is played so much louder than the narration.
Thank you for your feedback!
Yes indeed, but no more annoying than the hideous added camera noise, completely inappropriate for the camera, a Leica, famous for its silence! 😶
