Roger, I am so grateful for the mention of my channel, it really does mean so much to me. Thank you.
Also, awesome video :)
Dear Roger,
I was so honored to be mentioned on your UA-cam channel, I'm having a Pint in your honor. Kudos for sharing your brain, chock full of film photography information and knowledge...cheers
Glad you told me you had a Channel Carmine. Keep up the good presentations. That street photography talk was interesting, .
I started pinhole photography in 2021, I really enjoy it.
Will is the man! Love his videos. ❤️
😊
Sounds like the Geiger counter was going mad. Thanks for another fine video!
Haha I thought exactly the same thing😆
Cor Blimey... that New York Accent ! 😮😮😮😮😊😊😮
Well done Ralph
Nice vlog, yes, I've subscribed to Will for a long time now.
Hey, great kit there. Luck you! An LPL easel, good quality. Paterson stuff, always the best. The focus-finder, the single-format easel, the safe-light, and the contact printers. The foam always goes bad on those. Easy fix. Definitely worth replacing. The test printer works a little differently your other Jessops test printer. Each finger lifts up the next, so start from the other side, or, lift all of them, and drop each finger, one at a time. You probably want a diffuser under your enlarger lens (where you otherwise have a red-filter) when you use the light meter. That way, you can diffuse the whole scene, and therefore measure the enlarger, not the selected frame (but keep the frame in the neg-holder). What that lets you do is change the size of the enlargement and compensate for the changed exposure / light intensity (usually with the enlarger aperture). You never have enough tongs (or negative clips). And, yes! People are always keen to find someone who wants to take on the darkroom equipment. So much more satisfying than throwing it away - especially as no-one makes much of it any longer. Great vid, good stuff. Keep up the good work!
Ah, all those Patterson stuff from the early 80s and that exposure timer, they brought back memories. I think that timer is for B&W prints. I used to have one for colour printing ( pretty useless TBH ), and if I am not mistaken I had something that used to suggest a colour filter value. Good pinhole shots too Rog. Will Gudgeon is a wizard with pinhole as is Steve O'nions. Sadly, pinhole has never been my thing but I can sure appreciate it. It certainly is no gimmick. I guess I just can't do simple things. Typical male.
The pinhole camera has got to be the most fascinating feat of machination. We really need one of these in space.
How could this tech become binocular? Two holes to one plate. Is that a thing? Would it change anything about the image?
Like I said, fascinating. It flips the image without the need of our complicated eyes and brain. It sees perspective with no lens. I love it.
I'm not sure of that would work. Be interesting to see. I saw Canon released a macro lens binocular!
@@ShootFilmLikeaBoss … forgot to ask ☺️… Ever seen a Mirascope? Two mirrored bowls reflecting out of a hole 🕳 in the top bowl. Good light through the top creates a 3D image of the center contents of the bowl. Very real.
Keep, keep on. Thx for the response. 🤩
I love the softness of pinholes and the insane DOF ... always fun to see someone else do it!!!
Mummy.... there's a man with a box lying on the floor looking up at the church.
Come away sweetheart. Run.
🤔😄📷👍👊😃👏
Super vid.
So enjoy these.
I'll be checking out your recommended youtubers too. 🙂🖐👍
You know that!
Great as always roger
Cheers Allan
I would be really interested in seeing those contact printers whenever you fix them up.
Commenting as I watch: I guessed from context what "high street" meant but it's good to get clarification. We call it "goin' into town" ... doesn't matter if it's a small village or a major city, it's still going into town😆
Second slide...I thought 6 sec exposure might be a bit long to capture people walking but it came up nice regardless. Half or 1/3 sec would be better.
I like the last slide too.
Great find with all the darkroom stuff😁
I was hoping for a busier streets which would have made more impact... Next time
How do not have 100k subscribers? Lets go!
Nice box of bits Roger especially the large easel! I have the same safe light and focus finder...bought on eBay. It’ll be satisfying to remove and replace the old foam on the testers. Good fun with the pinhole.
Wonderful shot with the church. Despite shooting blind, it was framed perfectly.
Yeah that did work out well Dane. You never know with pinhole. I was surprised.
Roger, if you do go do the bells that would be a really interesting video.
Regarding your bum bag, we always wore them with the pouch at the back so it’s out of the way. When needing something just spin it to the front. I’ve always assumed the name was because they sat on our bum.
Hopefully I get to pull some bells
With that small Manfrotto tripod, you can pull the button out a bit more to get some extra grip on the mount.
I'll have to check that!
Bravo
Hey Roger great video. That's something I've been thinking about for some time, pin hole 4x5. Amazed how smart they can be. The vignette adds an artist touch. KB
The size helps get a better image I find Ken.
I am always amazed how often I need a 150mm for my 4x5. Someday maybe I will get one.
You make great videos. :-)
Thanks ☺️
The LPL easel 40x50cm is very nice, I have the same one. If you find the blades a bit bent you can get them perfectly straight with your fingers and a bit of time, after removing them from the easel.
It's big! Yes I have started to bend the blades back in place.
I put new foam on one I bought on eBay and it’s ok now
I got my darkroom gear the same way.Turned up expecting some old enlarger, and it was a Kaiser vp 6005 in mint condition
With lenses,filters,safety lights ect.
Wow!! nice one!
As always I enjoyed your video. A bit different than this time. I've never been into pinhole much. I remember when I started out with photography as a kid back in the late 1950s, I built a pinhole camera out of a cylindrical oatmeal box. As a kid it was exciting to build a camera. When I was teaching continuing ed photography classes, I always had people build a pinhole. It helps to learn about photography. Some students liked it, others didn't. It interests me that there is a renaissance of pinhole now. I suspect the sterility and perfection of digital is reawakening interest in a part of photography so fundamental and flawed. Good job.
I remember building one at school but really wasn't interested. Just wanted to go outside and play football
@@ShootFilmLikeaBoss Yep and now you are a young man and all you want to do is go out and shoot. Interesting how we mature to different priorities. :-)
good luck with the foam of the first contact printer, i got the exact same when i bought my darkroom suplies (got the whole thing for 75$ CAD super cheap! but it had been sitting in a basement for the last 25 years, it was filthy to say the least! but yeah, the foam was a nightmare to clean off! used 99% alcohol, soap and water and cleaned it about 5 time to make sure there werent any sticky foam residue that would ruin my negatives!
Cheers. I got it all off in the shower! Came off like butter.
@@ShootFilmLikeaBoss maybe i should have tried that! i must have spent 45 minutes struggling to clean mine! also as a replacement for the foam, i used a sheet of 2mm EVA foam or craft foam that i lightly glued in place, seem to have done the trick quite well if i do say so myself with my minimal amount of experience with it!
It’s because of you and Will I have been more interested in getting involved with pinhole I am trying to get hold of a lerouge 66 as I really like the simplicity of it if anyone not seen Wills work it’s beautiful amazing what he can produce with a simple camera beautiful images as always roger definitely think you should recreate Edward Weston’s bell pepper no 30 with your 4x5 pinhole be interesting to see the results playing with it exposure etc
Thank you Jonny 😊
@@WillGudgeon thank you will your an inspiration I don’t live to far away hope to see you out and about 👍🏻
I did do in 2020 during lockdown Jonny lol
@@ShootFilmLikeaBoss I know you did Roger just thought redoing it on the pinhole see what results you got maybe a fun idea instead of the 35mm you did last time using a long exposure etc on and and upwards
I dunno what happened, but UA-cam seems to have hidden your stuff. I used to watch all the videos but I didn't get notifications about your uploads. Came back to check on you and saw I missed a lot!
i'm surprised lerouge doesn't have the tripod mount centered in the base of their pinhole cameras. it'd be nice if they had one on the short side as well to facilitate portrait format shots. a cable release option seems like it would be a nice addition as well. it was good to hear your feedback on that manfrotto tripod. i'd been considering getting one for my pinhole but now i think i'll keep looking for an alternative that might be a bit more stable.
It would be better more central.
Great video! I got an idea, I noticed you were needing faster shooter speed to capture people in your pinhole photos. Why you try pushing your film (HP5 would be ideal) 4 or 5 stops. Because your working in 4x5, you may get good results. Keep on making great videos!
Yes a faster film would have been better.
Pinhole is fantastic. Lens, digital cameras, can't do this.
Roger you haven't put links to those 2 channels.
Have now! Thanks
Gosh Newport looked very quite Nice photos. where do you get your pinhole cameras from? was making one got a bit fiddly for me Thank you
Yes it was like a ghost town! Look.online for lerouge pin hole cameras. Etsy also look for Ranica Pinhole camera
@@ShootFilmLikeaBoss thank you
in the US a fanny is actually a bum so any US viewers are going to be very confused - I once had to explain to a californian as he looked at a line of folks hanging over a bridge and observed 'look at all those fannies !' I nearly chocked on my coffee - brilliant....
Lol I don't know
The 35mm contact printing frame foam can be replaced with an old mouse mat turned upside down?
Absolutely great idea! Thanks.
With me it would be a waste bag soon ;)
Ring the bells? You must promise to go full Quasimodo and shout Esmeralda as you swing on them. That'd be an interesting diversion on yer channel!
Can you imagine the comments!
@@ShootFilmLikeaBoss Yes, I can! 😆😆🤣
ROGER -- Bum Bag, Fanny Bag -- just be careful you never need what I have a STOMA BAG !! One other thing -- when you showed your Prints in the 'Mounts' they look exactly like MARTIN HENSON'S Prints ! Is it a 'Fake Mount' you get in some PhotoShop trick ?
Yes it's just overlayed in the video to finish it off.
Do it. (The bell thing)
It would be very a-peal-ling.
HahA If it was called a waist bag it would be less gay...oops i said it...
