Point and shoot + Kodak Gold = 90’s holiday photos vibe and I love it! For anyone scared to try film give this combo a try, it’s cheap and almost impossible to mess up, enjoy!
Omg I had no idea about the colour of the film boxes/canisters hinting at the highlights in the film. Just a colourblind girlie trying her best, this is super helpful
ISO= international standards organization. ASA= American Standards Association (currently ANSI). ISO adopted ASA standard way before the digital came into existence. Same thing two different names to identify it.
Tip no. 8: Don't hold your film canister, either exposed or unexposed, into direct sunlight. Like ever. Simply no need to do it, but you risk to damage your film. There is a small slit where the film moves through, and it is open, only covered by some felt like stuff. Light can come through it and harm the film, especially if the canister is quite old or slipped somehow through quality control. That's also why you should never load your camera on the street just before you start taking pictures, like it is done in nearly each and every analog camera video on UA-cam. You do that outside of direct light at home _before_ you leave your home with the camera.
This is more important with the bulk loading cassettes, because the felt has had more that one length of film pass through it over time and is probably more worn down. Some films, especially infrared, can act like a fiber optic light pipe and can get exposed even with the felt.
In reality modern 35mm film cassettes shouldn't let in any light during daytime loading. Although all film should be stored in the dark as best practice. Re-used bulk film canisters and 120 film are more susceptible to light leaks... that's why there is a leader.
@@melody3741 I didn't see them either. As I wrote, it's a risk, not a method to create a light leak. If you don't care about such risks, just forget my comment.
Because it's the same thrilling sensation as asking a girl out, or being front row of a roller coaster : you know how to do it, but there is always an element of unexpected surprise !
I also don’t know why they say the colour of the film’s canister and box is a cheat sheet. AFAIK they’re just branding colours. CineStill’s most famous film isn’t even 50D but that’s the box they showed.
ASA is The American Standards Agency. This was the in USA agency that provided the film rankings. In Germany it was DIN Deutsche Industrie Norm and in Russia Ghost (which is on the Kiev 4a). There was an international photographic effort to an a worldwide ranking and this was the International Standards Organization (ISO) job and they "unified" film ratings international. Made it easier for meter and camera manufacturers and also users. On digital the ISO rating is really an equivalence thing and not an actual engineering standard, per se.
The last time i used a film camera was during my uni days. Now i want to get back on the game. It is the anticipation of not knowing how the prints are going to turn out that makes it even more interesting. Your tips make it easier for beginners to understand.
I believe if you leave the shutter cocked for too long that it may not be good for the springs and could eventually affect the accuracy of the release time, but only if you leave it for too long.
@@NickMaksy it’s not about gate keeping. It’s more about getting accurate information. Fuji canisters are green, but they make so many different stocks that don’t have green highlights. I don’t even think they understand what they said.
@@NickMaksy i mean, looking from the comments, the moment team who are supposedly “true original film nerds” dont know their stuff as well as they should
I went to my photo shop not long ago. They were kind of busy. A young lady was there and could not load her camera. It had been gifted to her so she really didn't have any experience with it. To give the clerk some relief from the rush, I offered help. I found the shutter release was jammed, the film couldn't advance... bummer. I gave her a name of a good camera repair shop... best I could do for her. Great to see interest in film shooting on an uptick! I'm just a hobbyist even though I started in 1960... I was ten years old.🤪
My first roll of film was just a nightmare. I didn't load it correctly and it ended up rolling on itself and getting bunched up. Sigh. I thought I could save it, but then the film tore and everything was exposed-it was basically Murphy's Law for the first roll. So, lesson learned, and all of my rolls since have been peachy!
I don't believe it's actually a good idea to leave the film advanced. A spring in most camera is stretched under that condition. If not released, the spring can lose it's elasticity over time and mess with the shutter, especially if you don't use the camera for a few days or more.
Springs, when in use within their intended range, will never loosen, if they're also tempered properly. this is one of the incredible feats of steel, compared to other metals and alloys. For instance, no matter how lightly you strain aluminium, eventually it will cause hairline cracks or simply break.
@@jolioding_2253 Old comment really but I was just thinking back to when I studied mechanical stresses. No material is perfectly elastic. Constant tension will always result in a change of the spring. Not something you'll notice in a few days, maybe not even a few months, but you never know when you might take your last shot for years. Our parents sure didn't. That plus, I've know of so many people accidentally pressing the shutter button or it actuating in their bags resulting in wasted exposures. Unless you actually use a film camera as a daily driver and need it to take a shot at a seconds notice, there really is no benefit to having it advanced. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
I Actually Am A 14 Year Old Photographer With A Dslr And A Slr. The Dslr Is A Nikon D70s And The Slr Is A Pentax Z70. And Literally Without Your Channel, I Wouldn’t Have These Cameras. My Parents Saw The Interest And Potential In Me And They Bought Me These. Just Cuz I Watched Your Vids. THANK YOU FOR THE AWESOME CONTENT!
UNDER 500 CLUB! I've definitely thought about the color of the canisters, It all makes so much sense now! I recently shot Portra 160 for the first time after hearing it produces excellent skin tones, and wowieeeeeee, I'm so glad I did after being a KODAK GOLD person since forever. I'm so in love with how vibrant the colors are looking -if anyone needs some convincing to try out PORTRA 160 for the first time, I have a lil photo reveal on my channel from my first roll
ASA and DIN are the old terms, ISO came out in 1974 with the standard we use today. It's nothing to do with Digital vs Film. Technically ISO is just the ASA and Din together. As in "ISO 400/27°"
Cool video. I had heard the opposite about the OM-1 and advancing after shooting. Apparently the spring in the mechanism of the advance shouldn't be under pressure between shoots It was suggested to end on the shutter. I do understand your fear of missing a shot, though! Just passing along some OM-1 nerdisms. Thanks for this video.
This is so exciting! I took a photography class in high school, mainly black and white film. Dark room developing film, loading film and learning about Portrait Lighting. My all time favorite film photos was my trip to Europe and taking photos in Auschwitz. Now that I have a 11 year old he is loving shoot with your lenses (especially the macro because “you can see inside of things”). But now to teach him more about film and how I first started with photography. I also used to work at a 1 hour photography place taking studio/passport pictures and learned to develop film on those big machines.
Thank you, I need such a detailed tutorial and the fun of taking pictures, like this tutorial, shooting tips, how to choose the camera and film program, I like it, hope can make a series of videos ! love u guys
Class video! For beginners beginners I'd just mention not opening the camera where the film is stored as this can ruin your photos. I know this might be obvious for some, but think I might have ruined my first one and a half rolls by that 😅
need to ask - how to do manage if you're using the point-and-shoot camera on a bright day and it's not possible on the camera to turn off the flash light? I'll be grateful for your tips on that
l have a question, its saying Kodak 400 is used for daylight time still? Can it still be used for night time shooting or whats the best film for night time shoots ? in clubs, downtown etc
7:07 is just like guns...make sure you carry your 35mm weapon hot and have a square chambered...9:27 is like audio tape recorders, when you record too loud you get dynamic range compression.
I never advance before I know I want to take a shot. I’m also quite fidgety sometimes and have fire the shutter quite a few times by just playing with the button.
Hey! I have just got my first film camera- the Olympus superzoom 700XB , I was wondering if Fujifilm film 35mm would be good for a beginner? I want to take a range of shots from landscape to people to inside and out and I don’t have the experience to buy different films. Would this be a good place to start?
While most of the time in bright Sun of using flash not necessary. There are a few situations where you might want to turn the flash on. If your subject backlit by the Sun pictures of sunset on the beach. I would turn the flash on in that case to avoid silhouette. Silhouette photo can be cool also. If someone is wearing a brimmed hat creating a shadow on their face that is another situation where you might want to use a flash in daylight.
Omg is that kens camera in mt Vernon! I'm from Australia but did a year at a college in Bellingham, I shot hundreds of rolls of film and would hire a car once every 2 weeks and drive to kens to get my film developed. Washington state is such a beautiful area to shoot film ❤️ great video
Kodak Gold and Colorplus are warm while the other Kodak films like Portra are more neutral. Fuji films in general are cooler while giving a certain punch to green tones. Do your research and learn whether the characteristics work for you before using a new film. -The biggest characteristic is the film grain which is often more subtle on the more expensive films made for professional use.
Really good one and it made me chuckle when you guys went to Ken to get ur film developed because my grandad was called Ken and left his OM1 to me when he past away this year and I couldn’t stop shooting in film since thank you
quick question, Lets say am using a 100 portra film And I used 10 shots, Then night time comes and I want to use a 800 portra, Can I go ahead and take the 100 out and switch it for the 800 or if I put a film in I have to use all the shots then am able to change it
It's going to depend on the camera you use. IIRC, it's possible to reload the film after and advanced back to the last frame you shot with the lens cap on so you don't have double exposures, but that's a lot of trouble to go through just to change film mid way through, and there's a lot of room for error. There are however some cameras, like hasselblads, mamiya rb/rz67, bronicas, kiev 88's, etc. that are build to be modular, so the film is loaded into a film back which can be changed without exposing the film. You could have portra 160 in one back and portra 800 in another back and switch between the two depending on the lighting.
Hi, hope you can give me some help please. I have brand new films not expired all 35mm - Portra 400, Portra 160 and Fujicolour Pro 400H, Kodak Tri-X 400 - which ISO gives the most pleasing results for each of these films? Will be using with Leica M6.
Where did you find the fact of , the colour of the film canister is equivalent to the colour balance. I've not heard that one before, it might be a good rule of thumb, to my knowledge the colour is just branding. That used to be multiple different standards for marking film's light sensitivity. GOST, DIN, and ASA were all common. ASA is short for the American standards association for example. ISO stands for the international standards organization, in order to simplify film specifications globally they made an international standard for film based on the ASA scale. This is why you see both ASA and ISO. When film was around ASA was still used and was often marked with the ISO and DIN values on the canister. Last thing for the most part turn your flash off when you're in a bright area however you might want to have a flash on if you're taking the picture of something that is backlit. Flash can help give a more even lighting across the subject. To be clear I'm not hating, this is a lovely video and I enjoyed it. I just felt a couple of points needed clarification :)
It won't hurt anything, but the trick is to leave only a little hanging out so you don't accidentally pull exposed film into the light. Also be sure you don't mix it up with a new roll. You won't be able to tell a difference between exposed and unexposed film just by looking at the canister.
@@Pikleboy3 I just get the bulk canisters and go in the dark and take a pre-made roll and yeet out the film and tape it to the bulk canister's spindle, then wind it in...this way you can use air-conditioning foil duct tape and a thermal label maker to fool the camera's DX code reader so you can try shooting at the 'wrong' speed for artistic effects, and it makes it easier to get the film out when it comes time to wind it into the developing tank, just go in the dark and unscrew the top to get at the film.
when do we turn the flash on/off? i've turned off my flash in places like cafes (where there's still natural lighting coming in) but the pictures turned out really dark :(
Maverick Prince: If your camera is fully manual you can still shoot without the battery but you will need to use a separate light-meter (the battery just powers the meter).
this is AMAAAZING! so excited for this launch. What's next? a MOMENT LAB here in Seattle? imagine a Moment Lab where people can get their films developed and scanned and with all the Moment gear and films in it? No? i know its a lot but one can dream LOL!
@@chainsaw2046 oh i know. i get my film processed there mainly. what i’m saying is - wishful thinking Moment would open a lab since they started seeking film. far from happening but who knows.
Never shot on film but every time I see old album photos of my childhood I wanna start making my own memories on film
Same bro
at least for me, getting into film was such a turning point for my photography
Same! That's why I just ordered mine LOL

True original 35mm film nerd since 1977 and still shooting it.
Nice to see the resurgent for film.
So dope that the Moment brand has evolved over the years from just shooting on your phone - to shooting on anything. Love the direction homies!
Why is shooting film so much FUN!?
Cause the process so amazing, and the trip for click every moment make the film very very different
Because it's the same thrilling sensation as asking a girl out, or being front row of a roller coaster : you know how to do it, but there is always an element of unexpected surprise !
Cause you never know how the final results are gonna look like
Because the process is amazing and the fact that you don’t know what your photos are gonna turn out just makes it even better
I love the Chemistry!
ASA and ISO are exactly the same. ISO is just the “newer” term. It has nothing to do with film vs. digital.

Kodak Gold and Colorplus are warm while the other Kodak films like Portra are more neutral.

Do your research and learn whether the characteristics work for you before using a new film.
-The biggest characteristic is the film grain which is often more subtle on the more expensive films made for professional use.

Ektachrome 160 is the Samsung saturation of color 35mm film. I love it!
quick question, Lets say am using a 100 portra film And I used 10 shots, Then night time comes and I want to use a 800 portra, Can I go ahead and take the 100 out and switch it for the 800 or if I put a film in I have to use all the shots then am able to change it
It's going to depend on the camera you use.
IIRC, it's possible to reload the film after and advanced back to the last frame you shot with the lens cap on so you don't have double exposures, but that's a lot of trouble to go through just to change film mid way through, and there's a lot of room for error.
There are however some cameras, like hasselblads, mamiya rb/rz67, bronicas, kiev 88's, etc. that are build to be modular, so the film is loaded into a film back which can be changed without exposing the film. You could have portra 160 in one back and portra 800 in another back and switch between the two depending on the lighting.
one of the best videos i've seen amazing shots
0:21 pls what camera and film did she use to take that 🥺 i really love that kind of photo type 🤧
If I had to guess, maybe an Olympus Mju?? I’m no expert just a guess
Also dumb question, but I know people do it themselves, but does anyone know if places scan the film for you as well to post online?
Recommend to look up online for your local film and development lab! Then just make sure you get a digital copy of your scans to share on socials! :)
Damn. I enjoyed this. I want to join the moment team.
I love you guys, finally getting film here in Italy without spending a fortune!
I never knew about the strap distance tip for the point & shoots! Makes so much sense, should've never ripped mine off lol
Same. 😅
Ahhhh!!! Light leaks on the little automatic!!
first 20 seconds had some gnarly editing
Hi, hope you can give me some help please. I have brand new films not expired all 35mm - Portra 400, Portra 160 and Fujicolour Pro 400H, Kodak Tri-X 400 - which ISO gives the most pleasing results for each of these films? Will be using with Leica M6.

How do you guys keep track of what exposure you're on when switching ISO back and forth?
Where did you find the fact of , the colour of the film canister is equivalent to the colour balance. I've not heard that one before, it might be a good rule of thumb, to my knowledge the colour is just branding.
That used to be multiple different standards for marking film's light sensitivity. GOST, DIN, and ASA were all common. ASA is short for the American standards association for example.
ISO stands for the international standards organization, in order to simplify film specifications globally they made an international standard for film based on the ASA scale. This is why you see both ASA and ISO. When film was around ASA was still used and was often marked with the ISO and DIN values on the canister.
Last thing for the most part turn your flash off when you're in a bright area however you might want to have a flash on if you're taking the picture of something that is backlit. Flash can help give a more even lighting across the subject.
To be clear I'm not hating, this is a lovely video and I enjoyed it. I just felt a couple of points needed clarification :)
random question but... where did you guys get those red and yellow camera straps shown at 1:10 ??? been looking for something similar!!
When rewinding film is it okay to leave a little hanging out like how comes? Or should it be put all the way into the canister?
It won't hurt anything, but the trick is to leave only a little hanging out so you don't accidentally pull exposed film into the light. Also be sure you don't mix it up with a new roll. You won't be able to tell a difference between exposed and unexposed film just by looking at the canister.
@@Pikleboy3 I just get the bulk canisters and go in the dark and take a pre-made roll and yeet out the film and tape it to the bulk canister's spindle, then wind it in...this way you can use air-conditioning foil duct tape and a thermal label maker to fool the camera's DX code reader so you can try shooting at the 'wrong' speed for artistic effects, and it makes it easier to get the film out when it comes time to wind it into the developing tank, just go in the dark and unscrew the top to get at the film.
when do we turn the flash on/off? i've turned off my flash in places like cafes (where there's still natural lighting coming in) but the pictures turned out really dark :(
i use a point and shoot camera btw. I also typically use fuji c200/ kodak colorplus 200
i have a minolta srt, do i need to have a battery in it? or can i still shoot since it’s fully manual
Maverick Prince: If your camera is fully manual you can still shoot without the battery but you will need to use a separate light-meter (the battery just powers the meter).
wow you're using olympus om 35mm f2, right? Really awesome old lens!! isn't it?
this is AMAAAZING! so excited for this launch. What's next? a MOMENT LAB here in Seattle? imagine a Moment Lab where people can get their films developed and scanned and with all the Moment gear and films in it? No? i know its a lot but one can dream LOL!
Very confused about what you mean, but there's the shot on film store in Seattle for a lab, if you didn't know abt it.
@@chainsaw2046 oh i know. i get my film processed there mainly. what i’m saying is - wishful thinking Moment would open a lab since they started seeking film. far from happening but who knows.
