I find that shooting Hp5 at dusk with the lens cap still on yields some amazing shadow tones, absolutely excellent blacks in the final image.
you should try developing kodak aerochrome in rodinal 🤤
Crack the lens connection and get some sick light leaks in there too 👩🍳
@@bradbennett1420 What if I took the lens off entirely? Imagine how cool the light leak from that would look
@@harper.suxbier pretty sure that’s where rainbows come from
whats a lens cap?
Omg the way you nonchalantly described the reason you don’t get up for morning made me feel so dumb; I absolutely love that you’re just brazenly yourself. I’ve made a lot more business this year with my digital portrait business because of you. You’ve really taught me a lot about what I want to see in my own art. You’re a gem dude
Alex Burke recommends a Tiffen 812 for shooting Ektachrome and I totally agree. It really helps balance the color and makes the scene true to life. Also, he recommends metering at ISO80 (or 50 with the 812 filter) and I find that really helps bring out the most of the film stock. If you want more tips he has an entire blog post about metering and exposing E100.
Came for the daily flaming hot chugs. Stayed for Baxter
What you think of my video? Feel free to check out my series on contax T2
My go-to film stock is Placebochrome 200. It doesn't take very good photos, but it's a lot cheaper, and you still feel like you were there.
You really got me into googleing this. Cheers mate
I like how you were able to slide that in there...
I shoot mostly expired film. My go to BW is Kodak Plus-X and for Color I really love the look of expired Gold/Color Plus, but mostly I just shoot whatever is in the fridge.
I like how Jason assumes all of us finish our rolls of film within a day, that shit is expensive, every picture needs to be at the very least a banger that stands the test of time. The ideal scenario aside from that is a picture that r/analog will like
My go to for midday and bright sun is CineStill 50D. It is just so clean and I just love the colours it produces.

Keep it up we'll get that aerochrome soon enough
Great but what would you do for fuji bringing back Industrial 100?
I’m a basic Portra 400 bitch, at least in my point and shoot. I like to use it when hanging out with friends or for party photos (she writes, not having gone to a party this year). I prefer the way skin tones look in portra compared to gold, Color plus, or ultra max and the 400 iso is a good compromise as it works for lower lighting indoor settings and outdoor shots. AGFA 100 is my go-to black and white film because it’s cheap, reliable and the only film that is easily purchasable in store without breaking the bank. With current film and developing costs it’s cheaper for me to buy Silbersalz35 than to buy Kodak gold and have it developed, so I’m planning on ordering a 4 pack once I have a trip planed.
My boy jason straight up killing himself just so we can have Aerochrome back
A true hero of the people.
The 🐐. Major inspiration to my film journey
if you wanna get kodak color plus in la, there is a small place in studio city that sells them. Harry's Camera and Video. I've been able to grab them just last week.
The real problem is: wher can i get film, because it is out of stock everywhere
Redscale is amazing. Please. Everyone. If you can, try redscale.
I looked through my favorite shots and came to the conclusion that I've just grabbed a random stock that sounded good and wacked it in my camera. I've noticed a few trends though.
Sunrise: Yeah I'm not awake
Midday: Usually Black and white, FPP Wolfman 100 or Black and white IR films like Rollei IR. With color though I've had good luck with Lomo's redscale and Cinestill 400D
Fog/rain/super cloudy: Kodak Gold or Ultramax 400
Sunset: Provia 100F. My current favorite and I mourn it's loss everyday now. Also Reto's new Amber 400 is a good choice!
I wish you would make a podcast man 😂 I’ll never get enough of grainydays
I love your sense of humor
How do you get that 3D effect on the photos at the end of your videos?? Super awesome
omg I love this video, I just started so I didn’t understand like 40% of what you said but this is so useful!!!! Thank you!
A solid video! I just wanted to recommend shooting older AGFA 35mm and higher film because you get color and quality even Fuji and Kodak do not have, plus the Rollei and some other, better reliables are from the Agfa-Gevaert factory in Belgium.
I shoot almost everything on either Fuji C200 (RIP), Kodak Gold or Pro image 100. However, I have also tried Ilford Delta 3200 and HP5 (+2 stops) for very dark scenes such as on concerts.
I usually don't shoot Portra, Cinestill etc because it's so god damn expensive here! I live in Norway, so we're going towards a time where there will be a lot of darkness and snow that fucks up the exposure so I just hope I will get some half decent shots 🤞
Why do you say RIP for Fuji C200??
@@adamhymel2386 they stopped selling it and has started with something called Fujicolor 200, which isn't the same formula
@Phillip Banes Not easy when at a concert or when it's freezing. Trust me, I have tried it
@Phillip Banes That is exactly my point. It's difficult to shoot at concerts because you can't bring a tripod! And when it's cold, you have to take off your gloves to use the camera. Your hands therefore get cold. If you then take your gloves back on again, ut takes ages to warm your hand because your body needs to exert heat for the gloves to heat up again. This doesn't always work either I'd you're out shooting taking your gloves off all the time.
Snow will also mess with the exposure because the camera can easily be confused by all the white and underexpose
@@DroopyPenguin95 Yeah fujicolor 200 is literally repackaged Kodak gold. I loved C200 too ;(
Some truly lush photos used to illustrate the various stocks. Not sure why you edited them to micro-seconds on screen.
Best film photography channel, no cap.
Still can't find Kodak color plus? In Poland now it costs $11-12 for 135/24 roll.
What about Fuji provia?
Genuinely great video. Ur amazing

Thank you!!!
So when are going to get an infrared camera ?
TMAX 400 at night can be great, especially if there’s fog and lights around. And with TMAX 3200 you can shoot sharp images of a bat flying in a cave.
Congrats on the NBC feature. I'm sure it won't change your sarcasm and self deprecation :).
What's your name on grainery?
Another awesome exploration. I don't put that much thought into selection, especially on the finer points that you covered. I tend to like a lot of different things, so whatever results from whichever stock tend to satisfy me.
I grew up on Kodachrome and generally prefer vibrant colors with sharp contrast. I always got along well with slide film. Shot a bunch of Fuji slide as well. Love the blues in Ektachrome. I do enjoy grainy B&W, as I see the grain as an enhancement of the abstraction.
I have a variety of stuff in the refrigerator and stocks I have not yet tried but want to. I will probably just select a couple at random and just go out when the urge strikes and make an adventure of it. But you have inspired me to think a bit more about it...

How do you make your videos look blurry/dreamy? Is it just editing or do you use a diffusion filter
Our protagonist is beaten down, Monica is at her breaking point. This is truly the valley of our hero's journey - the darkest point in the grainydays lore. Fret not friends for the abyss always brings forth transformation and triumph. Aerochrome is gonna be announced tomorrow, I can feel it. Keep on chugging.
Hello, I’m Late the video, and new to film photography. When he says “pushed 2 stops” referring to the illford HP5 plus, what does this mean?
This man is risking everything to bring back aerochrome 🙏
Heyy is the Grainery app in appstore??
Do you know the Silbersalz stock? It's repackaged Kodak motion picture stock but with rem jet on, so no halations. Develomepent and scanning is all included in the price which makes it for me, a fellow German, a really nice (and relatively cheap) alternative to CineStill 800T or Portra 160.
He's done a video on it
Not yellow, you want ORANGE
Aren’t both of those Fujifilm films discontinued? 😭 I’d love a review/shoot with Fujicolor 100 and/or Superia/Premium 400 to see what you think 🙏 I’ve been shooting with Fujicolor a bit recently
I pick by picking what's in stock :')
1:22 Painterly lol
i dont pick i only buy the cheapest
The editing in your videos is so decent. All the sound effects, pops and cuts to the beat. They don't go unnoticed.
Way beyond decent. The video is art in and of itself.
What you think of my video? Feel free to check out my series on contax T2
To be fair, I vaguely remember him mentioning he started in video production or editing and then transitioned to photography, so makes sense
💪Kodak Gold for everything💪
I've had some great results with Portra 800 at golden hour. The added grit and contrast over 400 really gives the image more character in my opinion, and it does tend to shift a bit brown/yellow as well which is lovely for that time. Mid-day I love some c200 and hp5. Nighttime I bring out my X-T4 because I can't be bothered to carry a tripod haha
Very helpful! Even for an old dog…

I'm just wondering how the fuck people are even getting their hands on color film...
I hope Kodak brings Aerochrome back because our boy will have big glutes from all the clenching. Keep clenching boy!

I think I could make an entire photobook out of images taken purely on Ektachrome in blue hour light. It’s too good
I’ve been chugging flaming hot Mountain Dew in solidarity with you and now my urine is the consistency of cool bacon grease - please help.
Have you hit the stage where you go temporarily blind yet?
@@grainydaysss not yet but I have started to hear the voices.
In summary, shoot HP5 pushed 2 stops in all scenarios except after sunset.
Lmao right?! I feel like not many film stocks were even mentioned
And never try anything outside of your comfort zone like pan-f that would suit that time of day because the only person you get your information from is Matt day.
Nowadays, it is just Fomapan 100/200 for everything. And if I want color, Lomo CN100 or the stock I hate but cant stop buying because of how cheap it is, Fuji Eterna 500T +85B. Budget is kind of tight these days.
Ektar at night is so nice. Ferrania P30 is great for sunny scenes, too.
I'm a big fan of Fuji's old C200 for golden hour shots. The smooth lighting in combination with Fuji greens is a look that I really love

An added dimension to your choice of film stock is how you're going to process it. I've had great results pushing Tmax400 +2 stops as well as pulling Fuji400H -2 stops. Sometimes I'll Push/pull a film just to see what it does. It's like the photography equivalent of my favorite childhood summer game, "will it burn?" Ironically, that also involved lens: a magnifying glass.
Love the dark humor. Oh and the film information was great too. Subscribed.
Idk how long before aerochrome is back
Oopsie doopsie, just looked up Ektachrome, guess I just won't eat next week
90% Provia, 10% Portra 160, Velvia 100, and Ektachrome. 0% Black and white
Silbersalz35 at any time of the day, any weather. I wish you made a new Silbersalz & XPAN video, it's so good.
Holy crap! It’s official. Your famous. Kodak hasn’t answered ur message yet, but fuk! Me! I saw you on NBC. MtDew is paying of in other ways lol. Not just good for spraying the inside of toilet before you even get to hear the alarm go off in the morning. Congrats on all your success. Love watching the channel, however I do I have to say. This will be death to a lot of casual shooters. This much awareness is still driving prices up everywhere. So. Thanks. I guess you did fuk me. (Insert creepy wink) 😅
if you know the song at the beggining, felicidades, conoces a jordi
Hello, I’ve watched a couple of times and thought you mentioned what number of yellow filter you like using. Maybe it was another video? Do you use a #12 yellow on your Leica? Thanks
Kodak 800@200 in golden hour light is the bee's testis.
Kodak is gonna be charged with negligence in this man’s death
No baxter, no fun
If you really wanted to send a message then you would butt chug the flaming dew… that’ll show them. Maybe? I honestly don’t remember what this protest was about. Anyways.. great video as always! New to film photography and the whole concept of choosing different film stocks is way over my head. But your videos have been helpful!
Oh crap. Our man is on NBC news boosting the film resurgence. Now we'll have to wait for the hipsters to burn out before camera prices come down.
The word on the street is that the new Fujifilm Fujicolor 200 film is rebranded Kodak Gold 200
The message to Kodak is Jason has an endless amount of patience, and will not stop his campaign.
funny, I only shoot Gold 35mm cause I'm poor
I'd love to see what you can do with Fuji Superia 400, because it's relatively affordable and easy to get at the moment. I've been hoarding it up and need some inspiration. Thanks for another great video!
Other than the signature Fuji green tones when shooting foliage it doesn't really do anything special. Its latitude passable for most settings, but not great. The grain texture is nice though. You could probably try pushing it to 800/1600 for fun but the colours tend to shift very unpleasantly when pushing.
I shot a ton of it when visiting Vancouver, my best results were from shooting box speed on overcast days with lots of greenery in the scene.
I moved to Sevilla recently and I'm pretty sure all the colorplus is in one film shop here lol
PLEASE Kodak, end his suffering (and ours cuz we want Aerochrome back)
I got some very nice shots with Ektar 100 while in the desert, came out just as I wanted color wise!
Aerochrome this, Aerochrome that - but why noone ever speaks of Ilford SFX? That stuff may just combine the moody, "I can't compose colours" b&w look with the dopeness of infrared. Or at least be a good coping mechanism for the symptoms of clinical withdrawal from Aerochrome.
P.S. Kodak, bring the Aerochrome back ffs...
Your channel makes me so happy. I went to film school on the cusp between film and digital video, and so your lessons about "what film stock when" and lighting and all of it is just wonderful. I'm so damned happy to see that film is coming back into fashion. Heavenly!
SCAM!!
Come down to Auckland, New Zealand, we've got 50-ish volcanoes and you can climb up nearly all of them for some great views :)
My stock choice process: whatever stock is cheapest.
Fomapan 400 is definitely a look in rain and fog. The price is pretty attractive at least.
I like shooting mine a stop overexposed.
Ultramax, Gold and Superia are my go to colour stocks, when they’re all available… Ilford HP5 as well, pushing 2 stops is amazing
Unrelated but does anyone know what the camera straps that Jason uses are called
Do you use diffusion filters ? What the type and number?
I just shot 9 rolls of random expired films from the 90s and 00s in Paris and Sorrento, now I'm doubting what time of day I shot them in.
The last joke was about peepee's
Take a shot every time he says “HP5 pushes 2 stops”
Just watched you on NBC news. Good job!
supposedly Kodak can't make infrared film because the base is scanned with infrared looking for imperfections in manufacturing. Idk. I'd lay off the mtn dew man.
At this point I'm too committed
So when in doubt, HP5?
I've gotta try Ektachrome at blue hour, also a yellow filter, nice
Beginner film photographer here - can you change a roll of film to suit different conditions in the day if it hasn’t finished yet? Or do you have to use the entire roll then change to another one?
You can definitely do that, by rewinding the film, leaving the leader out and remembering the frame you stopped shooting in. This, however, is very cumbersome to do multiple times, and makes it possible for you to make more mistakes too. So you can do it, but personally what I like to do is to shoot a color film on one camera and a black and white film on another. Usually these two cameras are an SLR and a Point and Shoot. Anyway, you should try experimenting on your own, and seeing what works for you. Hope that helps.
I'm almost always on slow film. A lot of Velvia 50, Pan F Plus 50, Silberra Color 50. I almost exclusively shoot during the day on a 50mm lens and I love the contrast and look of the slow film, and I always have enough light to shoot handheld.
Tri-X is such a better film stock than HP-5. HP-5 makes everything look grey and boring, probably why you need to push it 2 stops to get something interesting. Trix-X has some pop and grain and if you process yourself can look pretty much however you like depending on chemistry. Soup it in Rodinal 1:25 for 7 minutes for super sharp grainy look, dilute it 1:50 for less contrasty more tonal look. There are tons of options and it can replace both T-Max and HP-5.
I agree that Tri-X looks better at box speed, but it's too contrasty for my taste at 1600, whereas HP5 shines there. I can't speak to the developing flexibility, though, as I don't develop at home.
@@Christian_from_Copenhagen Tri-X has amazing flexibility in development but it only applies if you develop yourself. I've pushed it in Kodak HC-110 (not sure if they even still make this) using stand development and it has great tonal range without getting too contrasty.
Thank you for keeping it going, chug on
Soooo just shoot hp5 pushed two stops all the time. Check.
Would love to see a video where you shoot velvia 50
I shot my first roll of Velvia 100 recently, and am currently cutting through my first roll of Velvia 50. I don't have the most amazing shots on these rolls, but regardless of that I'm still excited to see what I've got on them. I also shot my first roll of Portra 800, really it was perfect weather for these.
We had bright sunny days where I polished off that roll of Velvia 100, then the colors started changing and we got less light, which was perfect for Portra 800, and now we've got a lot of light again, and I've got a tri-pod, which makes shooting Velvia 50 a lot easier. I look forward to the results of all of these once I get the money to have them developed.
I've picked up today a developed roll of Velvia 100 and the colours are simply amazing. Unfortunately Velvia is both extremely expensive and difficult to find, so I don't know when I'll be able to shoot another roll.
@@LucaPasini2 I'm excited to see what they'll look like in person when I get my positives developed.
