A Waste of Film

Добавлен 6 дек 2019
I take pictures with cameras and then talk about the pictures I took with the cameras also the cameras I took them with.
Lonely Redwoods | Super 8mm Film shot on Yashica Sound 50XL
A short little trip I took through the Redwood National Park earlier this year.
One roll of Kodak 50D shot on a Yashica Sound 50XL
The music is Tom Rosenthal. I know, stereotypical, but I didnt upload this because I think its going to be amazing or anything, just so its easier to share with others.

A Summer of Photography in Fort Knox, 2019
Просмотров 2554 года назад
I spent last summer as a Public Affairs intern photographing cadets going through Advanced Camp in Fort Knox. This video is a summary of the many different photos I took, and the wonderful people I worked with. Sorry for the shitty audio quality, I had to rerecord a ton of stuff, and I honestly had worked on this too long to go through and fix every issue. ArmyROTC Flickr www.flickr.com/photos/...

The Worst Medium Format Camera Money Can Buy : The Fuji GX680 III S

Watch as I fumble through a review of the Fuji GX680 III S. Sorry for all the cursing, its just how I talk. Music Used Ohayo by Smith The Mister smiththemister.bandcamp.com Smith The Mister bit.ly/Smith-The-Mister-YT Free Download / Stream: bit.ly/_ohayo Music promoted by Audio Library ruclips.net/video/bzCw4RyFqHo/видео.html Track: Coffee Dreams - Le Gang [Audio Library Release] Music provided...
I own the GX680 III, its freaking awesome ... maybe you shouldn't have cheaped out on the S version ;) , why are movements not valid on Medium format cameras ? btw if you cleaned the contacts on the connections you may have less issues with lenses
I have one. The last model with movements. It’s a camera that takes a lot work but can produce excellent images.
A worst craftsmen blamed his tools. We had 3 of them in the studio.learn to use it
that’s a Great camera for professional use
When I turn it on, there is a string ticking sound and it doesn’t work (even though it’s on). Any tips?
I take it that you really like it?
I have no idea why you bought it. I love your potty mouth review. Next time you buy a camera maybe do some research, eh? Using this for landscape and street photography? Reallly? Why stop there? Take it underwater. That makes about as much sense. The biggest drawback is the battery and the film back camera. Other than that it is a great studio camera. The camera was made as a studio camera ergo tilts, swings, etc. for product shots and portraits. Get it? That is why you use studio cameras. It is a fully electronic camera with tilts, etc. I have no idea why you bought the SP model without them. No view camera I know of is electronic. At least none of mine. And the lenses go up to F45 on some lenses. You can get new bellows for under $100. Viewfinders are cheap and easy to find as well as a million other parts. Lenses for the same.
You have convinced me to buy one, (I am a masochist) eventually (i am also a procrastinator).
It's a damn shame you're such a good photographer and haven't kept up with the channel, because the whole being kind of a whinny bitch thing cut with trying Way to hard to be edgy kills it. You should pick it back up...
I came here for the abuse and was not disappointed - here is mine: It may very well be the worst. - but I spent twelve years behind one as a Pro and probably made over 100k with just that one (I had two) so stick that up your camera arsenal - actually it is the biggest and best SLR ever made - the 100-200 zoom is the bomb - just don't get the S as shown here - it sucks bad
I have been using this camera since 20 years and this is my favorite camera of all time!!!
You have no experience and do not know what you are talking about. This is a great studio camera. If you want to hand hold medium format use a 'Blad or Bronica.
Looks like a great camera
Found this right under "The gteatest medium format camera ever made I Fuji G680" who is more right in your opinion?
I use a 6x7 pentax Ii mf camera for landscape
Your are demonstrating your ignorance.
14 minutes of an ill informed teenager trying to put his entire foot in his mouth. To each his own I suppose but I think you kinda jumped the gun on this. These are amazing, affordable and unique cameras. It's hard to imagine how you missed so much.
I'm pretty sure it's irony here and you in fact love the camera (except for the tilt and shift S version lacks). Currently looking to buy one from Japan, that's how I run into your video. I hope you didn't sell it, image quality it's unbeatable, they say
So you bought a camera which you don‘t like (while all the information is out there) - and now it‘s the fault of the camera?
A total of waste of 14 min watching this video with all of the F words and negativity
It's mainly for stills, portraits and products however i think for your purpose a DSLR or mirrorles would suit better. I've seen these setups mostly in studios and very cumbersome to lug around for outdoor shoots. Medium format are different breeds of camera. I grew up processing films on dark rooms and shoots in studio and this camera is one of the best portraits camera. Looks like you're not used to the intricacies of an classic equipment, go for a modern full frame camera, the weight will be next to nothing. Camera has come a long way since its inception , do the research before you purchase a camera for 400 dollars thats a reasonable price considering a full frame or medium format goes for 6k. The camera comes in all sorts to suit different needs and requirements. This will not be for everyone
None of that is the camera's fault.
This camera is Made For Studio Use.On A TRIPOD.Not handheld outdoors.Add to that you need knowledge in manipulating THE LIGHT which is something you do not seem to have.If you want to have an opinion and review about photographic equipment, at first you should stop talking ironically and with bad words.Then your opinion will be more respected and appreciated.
the camera, like any other tool is only as good as the person using it, didn't you check out the details before purchasing it, the images of this camera are second to none.
Aight this dude aint funny, needs to cuss to entertain.
I prefer the Rollei 6008.
lots of whinging
@ 7:54 is that Louisville, Ky?
I left a particularly rude comment after watching just over a minute of this yesterday, for which I apologise profusely. I’m not the biggest fan of this camera, but it does have some redeeming features; or at least they usually do - but you bought a model which doesn’t have front movements???? Ok, yup, I now tend to agree; u did by the “worst” medium format camera possible for non-studio use… It’s a pity you didn’t get the “normal”; it’s a great platform to play around with technical functions. It’s about the cheapest possible “modern” technical camera, and it’s got a cheap diet of 120 rather than 4x5, and the glass available for it is right up there. Apart from the weight, the thing that kills it for me is it’s total reliance on electronics. I’m like a damn walking super capacitor or EMP gun that fries any device more than 2yrs out of warranty, or brand new kit if I’m on holiday or touring… Again, apologies for lashing in prior comment - having actually watched the whole vid, it’s one of the more informative and drily amusing reviews I’ve seen for some time. ☮️
News for you. The problem is with you and not the camera, except you bought the wrong model. The S model was for $hitheads like you.

Bro, it seems you're running against a shitstorm at full speed. you just don't know what you are talking about, so frustrating for all of us. peace
Yes, TOO MUCH CURSING!!!!!! U should have gotten the one with tilts/swings etc....
You lost all credibility when you mispronounced epitome.
What cart did you use to film this??
yoooo how do you transfer footage from these type of cameras into your pc or phone?
Did you figure out the light leak? could be the billows?
"Everything is automated" Like how there is no silly metering system inside the camera? Like how exposure must be dialed in manually? Like how focus is manual? I'm not sure what is automated besides winding? I think you must mean everything is electronic as opposed to gears and springs. My Hasselblad 500 lenses are powered via gears and I love it but the shutter speed is sometimes off and I need to have them tuned which sux.
A Waste of RUclips. Wow. I am impressed at the lack of knowledge and experience being passed along as knowledge and experience. For those that actually understand the capabilities of tilt, shift, swing movements -- this camera is actually very capable and highly portable and reliable. I have a Toyo/Omega View 45 which I adore, but I greatly prefer working with my GX680III Pro (Non-S). Electronic Shutter, Excellent Reliable Focusing Screen (unlike my 4x5 which sometimes gets misaligned when switching between preview and film). The GX680III Pro (Non-S) is at home in the studio for portraits and product photography (thanks to tilt/shift/swing) or outside for landscape. Sure it's heavy but compare it to any 4x5. Also consider the cost of film these days. 120 film with a good film digitizer produces plenty of data and is a lot cheaper than 4x5 sheets. I would also like to mention that you can get a lens board for the GX680 to adapt COPAL view camera lenses. I mean... what bad can be said about this camera other than it's weight?
I saw a picture of this camera somewhere online and it looked so damn sophisiticated I decided to learn more about it. I never knew Fuji made a medium format camera althoughIi don't know much about Fuji cameras period. I'm sorry you feel so bad about this camera, but I can't blame you. I felt the same about my POS Canon EOS-3 which I have recently sold. looks like to much Engineering went into this too many bells and whistles. This is a good case against manufacturers trying to lull consumers to sleep by burrying them with the kitchen sink, instead of focusing on the essentials. Another RUclips video claims that this is the best MF ever built, but I haven't had the chance to view it yet. By the sound of the shutter button on the Fuji GX680 I need not look any further YIKES !
While with Fujifilm for 13 years, I sold the gx680 packages to some of the most elite photographers in the world. Another example of garbage on RUclips
It is a studio camera first and foremost. Watch Todd Eckleman doing his review of the GFXIII. A poor workman always blames his tools. Get a 645 format, you wont get tired.
Why don't you review a tank next and complain about it's fuel economy on your child's budget and that it won't fit in a drive thru.
I think you should have gone with the RB or the RZ. Both the RB/RZ and the GX680 are beast; actually the GX680 is a mega beast compared to the Mamiya. I have the mark iii. I got it for the negative and the front movement. Compared to the Hasselblad it is a very limited use camera. I understand being tired of 6x6. Did you think of finding a 645 back?
You sold a 500C for the GX680? That's crazy! On the other hand the GX680 is an excellent film camera in the studio and outdoors when mounted on a tripod.
These cameras thrive in studio. It’s not an outdoor cat.
nice to know I'm not the only camera ????
Obviously too much camera for you to handle.
tilt and shift is useful and for architectural photography. they make specity lenses with it for full frame. but yea that's a lot of camera and light leaks not a great experience
sounds like u suck :/
