Wonderful! Great work! I see you have returned to the 4x3 aspect ratio. There is something special about the 4x3 frame. I have a U16 and a S16 K3 and have been considering shooting 4x3 so I can use all my regular 16mm lenses. Looking forward to your next film.
cheers, and yeah I do much prefer this way of shooting, I did run a 16:9 k3 for a previous project, but decided to sell in favour of the simplicity the original cameras give
Great work man. Composition is excellent! Breathtaking shots. Do you keep a few second buffer in the beginning of each shot for the initial flare/leak of a new shot? What protocols do you follow to avoid light leaks? Where do you tape up? And what tripod do you use?
Shooting For these couple of videos I wanted to try and sit on a scene for a little longer then a normal cut, so I generally cranked and counted to 5-10 seconds depending on how much I liked the shot. Then in the edit I just trimmed off what I felt was too much. I’m not to over the top with taping, aside from the main door around the camera to access and open the inside, but I don’t cover eye pieces or lens between shots to prevent light, because I haven’t had any issues not doing this. Tripod for all of these videos was with a photo tripod and a really bad video head on top. Which was a pain. But I only just upgraded to and have been shooting recent rolls for future projects on a miller air, boy was that an upgrade I needed long ago especially with a bowl head for levelling haha
Absolutely stunning! I reckon you used some stabilization in post, since the K-3 usually has some mild jitter, but by far not as bad as even great Super 8 cameras. What happened on the sprocket hole side of the image? Seems to be some sort of scratch not caused at the gate, since that would be completely straight and vertical. Seems to be some sort of burr. Loop formers? I trust you will figure it out and fix it, if you haven't already. 16mm V3 50D is a slice of heaven (to quote fellow filmmaker Tyler Purcell).
You’ve got a keen on because The gate jitter is pretty nasty on my body so I have had to use post stabilisation on most shots, and the abnormality you see was due to some dust, I’ve sonde given it a good clean and it has disappeared on rolls since. I’m glad you enjoyed it, you’re own work has been instrumental in my knowledge about these cameras, love your work ❤️
One question... what film did you use? I am about to shoot with this camera and Kodak vision3 500t film. I saw in one of your videos that you used Kodak vision3 50D film? Tks
This was with a few different stocks, I use all 4 negative stocks pretty often depending on the lighting situation, 50D looks great, but 500t is equally as nice, just depends on the situation ☺️
Hello ! You're doing and incredible job with the Krasnogorsk ! I'm about to shoot a short film with the exact same material. I noticed that your rolls are very clean (no light leaks). It's amazing ! Do you have any tips to prevent thoses light leaks ? I've already taped the camera but i think isn't enough. Thanks a lot if you got the time to answer me ! Quentin
Cheers bill ! Probably late to the party but aside from a good tape job I would stay away from the plastic daylight spools, I also load mine in almost pitch black even though they can be loaded In low light Hope that helps !
Finally, someone who knows how to get a good colour grade and knows how to shoot. Did you manage to get the debris removed from the gate at the top of the frame? I'd love to get a K3 but concerned about this kind of problem as i would like to retain as much of the frame to allow for recomposition later as possible.
I was confident the camera worked well enough that I could risk it and keep the gate dirty when I first started using this body, purely just for aesthetic reasons when pulling screen grabs. But since this I have cleaned and shot with the camera and the result’s turned out great, very clean ! Thanks for those kind words also ❤️
You're welcome. I'm glad you've managed to get even cleaner results, the original defects weren't enough to distract at all, but getting it as clean as possible obviously will mean you can get the best image to later do as you wish with. I've often thought footage from this particular camera would make for great stills....since 35mm is so much these days i'd be temped to get a K3 and see how far i could push it for still photography on a tripod...you think it would be doable? 16mm prices for 100ft are a lot better than 35mm, and for Ektachrome 100...well...i think with the K3's lens you'd get much better results with a camera like this for stills than a 16mm subminiature 110 camera?
Pretty wild right, they even do a 6.5k but I haven’t tried that as UA-cam only supports 4K. Looks so much cleaner on a computer without UA-cam compression!
Fantastic. I really miss 16mm film, my favorite medium to shoot.
It feels like I'm watching a legit film. The organic texture and warmth is very appealing to melt in.
Big love thank you, I really take me time and I do sit on footage for a long time until I feel it has a place
It’s hard to put a finger on what makes this so magical.
🧡
Film is beautiful.
This is one of the best films I have seen on UA-cam. I came back and rewatched because it inspires me so much.
I’m glad you dig it, thank you 🙏
Such a beautiful little movie!
Much appreciated!
thats beautiful! truly amazing how soviet amateur-class camera can produce this kind of images. defo some talent involved 👏
The cameras aren’t perfect, but when they perform they really do deliver!
absolutely breathtaking
💗
Unreal, 16mm is a godsend
ain't that the truth !
If I were a rich man, I'd fund your channel. It brings me peace and aesthetic serenity.
I really appreciate those words mate !, I've always got something I want to tackle next
gorgeous 👌
Amazing!
Big love 🧡
so cool!!
thanks Francis !

Thanks!!
Beautiful as always.
thank you !
breathtaking.
thanks dude!
Fantastic work
greatly appreciate that !
Amazing shots guys!
Thanks a ton!
I cannot put to words how ethereal, and special these videos are. K3 footage like this transports me to another world. Thank you for your work
cheers ! I really love these cameras, they aren't perfect but they are a blast to shoot with
So special
Pretty nice guys
big love dan!

@@ssimple4190 You are not alone with that thinking. I been getting my film over-scanned so I can go either way 16:9 or 4x3. Best to you!
Incredible footage. Wish 16mm wasn't so damn expensive.
the face my partner pulls every time I whip out a new roll is scary, she's not a fan of the expense hahah.
and thank you for that !
@@ssimple4190 results totally worth it though! And the footage will last forever.
Wow
for this it was both at 24 and 48 depending on what I was capturing
Great film, great work on Kodak negative. It’s on how a man should live in the world.
What lens is used? What film?
Thank you 🙏
This was a mix of varying stocks from 50D to 500T and it was shot with the meteor lens

Simply breathtaking. Wich stocks did you use in this one?

@@ssimple4190 Oh thank you. I'm honored.
Wow, great job!! What lens did you use for the K3 and how did you do such a great job stabilising the footage?
thanks jack, I used the stock meteor lens and used the built in stabilisation in fcpx as my camera has a little more gate jitter then id like
Wonderful. Are you doing a ton of grading b/c this looks great?
Thank you, I do grade my footage but not a great deal. I generally want it to look as close as it did in person.

@@ssimple4190 Do you use laser measuring device to measure the focus? I love the color grade. Maybe a tutorial on color grade?

Unbelievable footage 👏🏻 any chance you know what film stock you were using at 0:18?
Big love 💗
I’m not 100% but it could be 250D but possibly 50D
Don't stop
won't stop !
What lens did you use for this?
The 17-69 meteor 👍🏼
Do you use single or double perf 16mm film???
Single perf only 🤌🏻
@@ssimple4190Thank you!!!!
what is this film stock?
50D & 250D
4k in a length of thumb finger's nails size? WTF
Pretty wild right, they even do a 6.5k but I haven’t tried that as UA-cam only supports 4K.
Looks so much cleaner on a computer without UA-cam compression!
