Los Angeles by Air, with the Nikon D800, visiting Catalina island
What better camera to take with me for a wonderful flight above the sprawling coastline of SoCal. Come with me as I test the D800 Nikon FX beast and take the opportunity to get some airtime in while shooting.
Come see Catalina, come shoot shome images ;-)

I needed something new...... and super 8 way my answer ;-) Super 8mm film is a type of 8mm wide film that was introduced by Kodak in 1965 as a cheaper and easier alternative to making home movies. It has several differences from standard 8mm film, including: Frame size Super 8 frames are about twice the size of standard 8mm frames, measuring 5.79mm compared to 4.5mm. Perforations Super 8 sprock...

    Pro-tip: If you're looking to get a 5D Mk1, avoid getting one that comes with the battery grip and just buy that separately; most, not all, of the cameras sold with a battery grip were intended to be serious workhorses...

    Hello from Finland. I am a fully amateur photographer recently interested getting back to film. I have had a Canon digital SLR earlier. A year ago I bought a Nikon F3 and it has been amazing camera. I have always liked to shoot with aperture priority with my old digital camera and I love F3 and it's "A" mode. I don't care it has batteries and electronics, I just love how it behaves. Just set the aperture, focus and shoot. I love how old fashioned and still easy to use this camera is. My album is now getting filled with great photos, best film photos ever (I used a normal pocket camera in the 90's). I hope my F3 will last my lifetime.

    I've bought and sold this camera 4 times over the years, I never gelled well with it. it constantly overexposed the photos, it did have its moments of brilliance, but honestly the 5dc whilst slower was better for me.

    You brought up the pronunciation of the name "Nikon". Said you pronounced it like Americans. In matters of the English language, I usually side with British usage. But in this case, the Yanks have it I think. For instance, how would you pronounce the name "Simon"? I rest my case.

    Bought my A55 12 years ago. A Minolta owner since 1971. I now own too many cameras. ;-) But I love the GPS. I also love the XI motorized zooms along with some extraordinary sharp beer cans and Macros. I just bought an A65 for $160.00 on Ebay for slide and negative copying along with two extraordinary sharp 100mm and 50mm macro lenses. I also own a nice set of Canon RF series cameras and RF lenses. Sold my A7R II and lenses and went with the Canon RF system. Thanks for the video!

  • @johnjon1823
    @johnjon1823 13 дней назад

    You should make sure you have the updated firmware to handle larger CF cards. The mirror just needs 4 tiny drops of super glue if it falls off, mine fell off after many years and re-glued it several years ago with no problem at all and it has remained attached. I would not worry at all about the mirror being retrofit or whatever. The claim made by some videos that the mirror falling off was only for early models is not really accurate, so just assume all of them have a potential issue maybe. Without the updated firmware if you use a larger CF card, and most are larger, then when reviewing the images you may cause the card to fail. Not sure if it will fail while shooting a larger CF card with the old firmware but it happened to me while reviewing the images on the camera using a larger card; firmware update fixed it. The revised final firmware is out there somewhere, I found it but don't recall where. I have had zero problems with removing and installing the CF cards, I don't know who these people are who can't do that safely but it is no big deal in that or any other camera I have with a CF card. So, don't get paranoid over pins and CF cards, just be sane in your usage and you will be fine. It renders images quite nicely and does have a pleasant color palette. For Jpegs in landscape try jacking up the colors and such, it has a nice look to it. It is a camera for slow and deliberate work and if you have to shoot things that move, like people, you will have to really think about how it is best done, i.e. closing the aperture, focus trapping and the like. It is essentially the same focus system as on the Mark II and I have used that in a wedding and it was fine. The 24-105 F4 L works nicely for almost everything, so I would get that with it if possible. I have not used manual focus lenses with it, so no idea how that may go. Best wishes!

    @christopherwelch5568 13 дней назад

    I agree, this is a great way to get into analog photography. However... I made this mistake and now have a camera that can't be repaired. I wanted a rangefinder and did a deep dive on them. I found one that I liked the look of black and white images from it- a Petri 7s. It was dirt cheap on ebay and in abundance. I paid $10 for a pristine one plus shipping. And I never got to use it. In turning the aperture ring and firing the shutter to see how it worked, an aperture blade came loose. So it has an oddball aperture opening that could still be useable. And then the shutter stopped working. This is just me playing with it, before using it. I never got to use it. I bought a Yashica Electro 35G, got it CLA'd and it works like a champ. Save yourself some grief and buy a brand name camera that's proven.

    I bought a 5d classic when it come out. My old version had some focusing issues. At the time I had the 24-70 2.8, 70-200 f4 and 50mm f1.8. I couldn't get a sharp in focus image when shooting wide open so I ended up selling it because it doesn't allow in camera lens callibration. However, I did love the images coming from the camera that were in focus and at some point I will pick up another one. It's not all doom and gloom as I still have my Canon 5d mk III :)

    I've just ordered a D100 on a whim as I saw one for 41 GBP on my favourite used camera gear website. I am exited to play with it and immediately came to RUclips to see what I'm in for. You enthusing about the CCD sensor has got me even more hyped up. Looking forward to seeing how it compares to the Fuji X-trans sensor on my XT-2. Will be dusting off my old Nikkors and trying to find a CF card that is compatible (I'm guessing it needs to be of similar vintage). Great to see such enthusiasm for solid, old and still useful gear.
