Finally someone managed 35mm film not to look like a mess of false colors and exzessive grain. Well done and very nice pictures!
Thanks! Appreciate that!
In my opinion that's what makes film great. These same pics could have easily been done with a digital camera without paying for film and developing.
I always appreciate how you take us through the whole process explaining everything. The fact that your results are always top class is of course the icing
I appreciate that!
Great video! Just some advice for those in the comments who were saying they were having issues with the strobes not firing with the trigger...you can always mount the wireless trigger on the hot shoe, and then use a PC sync cable to hard connect the trigger to the body, that will work everytime. I have an EOS 1N-HS and that's the route I ended up having to go.
Thanks for the great video!
Thanks, I have had to do this in the past with other camera and flash systems as well. so far have had success with this setup!
Wow! These photos came out incredible with the flash
Thanks, Mark, Appreciate that!
Some amazing shots. So happy to see someone shooting film with a strobe. I’ve never tried it myself yet and wanted to see the process of someone doing it and the results. This definitely inspired me to give it a try
Thank you, film handles the light really well!
Excellent! Have the same kind of gear, 1v, art 50 1.4 and 85L1.2 , 135L. been thinking about getting some sort of hi-speed flash and try this. Now I’m convinced it’s worth the effort! Thank you, great work 👍
Yes it is worth the effort for sure in my opinion. I have been using the Godox flashes (AD200, 600 etc.. and they are the best value for the money in my opinion) Been drooling over that 135L for quite some time... might have to revisit that real soon!
You’re a great photographer man
Thank you, that really means a lot! Found your channel a few weeks back and find it so inspiring and helpful. Keep up the awesome work!
Just more of this type of content 😍
Will do!
those tones are unreal my guy
Thanks Andrew!
Cool video. The detail is impressive for 35mm! Great model too.
Thanks a lot! I was impressed with the detail of Portra using these lenses!
Incredible video! The only one I found on youtube.
I have a godox speedlight and a remote trigger, hopefully it will work with a cheaper camera I'm going to buy. A canon eos 500n or eos 300.
Thanks for the video and all the explanations.
You are welcome, thanks for watching!
Fantastic images! Wow!
@@saurabhbhardwaj6753 Thank you!
Outstanding results! I love Portra for it’s fine grain, honestly I find the amount of grain indistinguishable between Portra 160 and 400. When paired with pro glass the results are every bit as detailed and clean as digital. I also found that 35mm film gives you more than enough resolution for posting to social media. Great work I’m already a subscriber or I’d subscribe again. 😁
Thank you, I am really digging portra 400 for all the reasons you mention. Looking forward to shooting more!
Stoked to see more of this type of content too!
Awesome!!!
Loved the video! I started with the EOS3 and have built my kit to the R6, 85 1.4L, 35L, ad600, ad200, and V1. All because I loved the EOS 3 I went all in for Canon and never have used the strobes on it. You've inspired me! I would love to see more work as there isn't much I have found in this niche.
I just did a shoot with my EOS 3 as my 1V was in for repair. Forgot how amazing that camera is. I have the footage and plan on making the vid still. Just need to find the time. Plan on a bunch more too. Thanks for watching!
Impressive work man, congratulations!!!!
Thank you!
This was an excellent video man, some great photos.
Appreciate that, thanks!
Great shots. "I have a lot of favourite lenses", it's a good problem...😀
Thank you! It's a great time to be a photographer!
love you for your work and that i did not have to watch and adds. Will be back
here ramp
up this vid with comments.
Thank you! Will keep making em if people keep watching!
Please do the video with the Hasselblad! I am just learning how to use it with my Godox light setup and would love to see how you meter and use it. Thank you!
Thank, will do!
Today I shot 7 rolls of Portra 400 in my Hasselblad. Of a 4th of July small town parade and Demolition Derby. Old expired film i have had for a few years. Just always shooting B&W for the darkroom. Nateral light today of course but now you make me want to break out the Strobes and try some High Speed sync
Give it a shot. It was a lot of fun! I am the same way most of my Portra gets expired cause I usually go for the black and white!
@@Distphoto The darkroom just sent me a notice today they have the film in the lab. So hoping to see it Monday or Tuesday.
Good job. I have that camera and it is great. Still trying to figure it all out but I love it.
Love the shots.
Thanks Marshall!
Solid work, great shots! ✊
Appreciate that!
If you were to make a film/flash in depth course I would totally buy it! these looked fantastic!
Thank you! I am working on some film courses and will see about adding that in 👍
Very inspiring. Love your translated film skills! 🙏🏼
Thank you!
great Video! Looking forward for your Hasselblad Video!
Thank you!
Awesome photos and nice video of 1V.
Thank you very much! Such a great camera!
Amazing you are a great photographer 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks! I appreciate that!
Thank you for this great video!!! Love the results of your work, some really cool photos. My favorite pic is at 7:48min. Love the compression of the long zoom-lens, and the colors in this photo. It was also very interesting to see how you worked with this beautiful model. Both thumbs up and subscribed :)
Awesome, thank you!
Amazing work!
Thank you!
Nice work!
Thank you!
Outstanding work!
Thank you Michael!
@@Distphoto Most welcome!
Some great images and interesting to hear about the setup. It would be great to have some side by side comparisons of natural light vs sync vs hi-speed sync, and the two Portras (people seem to have strong preferences so a direct comparison would be nice). Maybe post on IG?
Thank you! I will do a more direct comparison in the future!
@@Distphoto That'll be great!
Excellent video brother. 💯🎞
Thanks, appreciate that!
Aaaaaaa 🤣 i did had to watch some adds but it was totally worth it!! Every detail was taken care of here!
Glad you enjoyed... despite the ads... doing what I can to stay afloat over here :)
If you have multiple 580 or 600 speedlites then you can use them remotely for ETTL and HSS. Just set them to optical communication. I use this and it works well.
Good to know!
Great session, the backlit image is beautiful but it is not easy to print I assume.
Coming out of the Epson it aint so bad :)
Nice work
Thank you!
Can I just bypass the digital camera reference and just use my flash meter instead?
I’d like to travel as minimal as possible
Yes of course 👍. I just do not have a flash meter that measures High Speed Sync. So have to rely on either TTL or camera preview at the moment.
Amazing!
Thanks!
I finish to see your video right now. Great shot, I love the way you use this camera and the pictures that you made. Only one question... I don't understand... why you used the ND filter with your 70-200? I think the answer is for blur the background, but I'd like to read your motivation. Thanks.
Thank you! I used the nd filter to kick the flash out off high speed sync as I was not sure it was working properly. This allowed me to shoot at f 2.8 and bring the shutter below 1/200th of a sec.
Could have gotten the same shots in high speed sync. I just was not positive the Godoy hss was working properly with the eos 1v. And wanted to make sure I got something 👍.
Some people swear by nd filters. I personally love these Godox flashes and typically use them in hss.
One thing to note though. If you are shooting really fast the flash will keep up better at regular sync speed (under 200 or so). In hss. They tend to overheat quicker.
But yes, it was to blur the background
@@Distphoto Thanks for explanation. I use Godox too. You're right about everything, I hadn't thought about it. I liked your video for your professionalism. I am always afraid that ND filters will alter colors by cooling them down. I noticed doing coloring in the s-log videos.
@@GiancarloSoncin7 yes the filters can change colors and these were variable which adds some polarization as well. I had a cheaper filter I used to use and it had a horrible green cast 🥵.
It is easy to test the filters today with digital cameras so that is a bonus….
Aren’t remote high speed sync is not possible when shooting using a transmitter? According to canon ST-E3-RT manual, they said such limitations. Does this mean this limitation only apply to that specific transmitter?
It must. The Godox system works great!
The images with the flash and shallow depth of field somehow automatically look very modern to me.
Probably you associate this look more with modern age and not with the film age. The internet is full of the latter. Anyone with a digicam and a china flash (Chinablitz) does it. I can not exclude myself..
I absolutely agree with you on your favorite image, when it faded in I also immediately thought, wow that would be my favorite.
Maybe with a white reflector it would have gained a bit in the blacks, but overall nowadays more my taste than the flashed ones.
Many greetings from Germany
The image with out the flash is just what I am more drawn to personally.
I will say that using off camera flash and doing it well is a skill set in its own and not everyone can do it.
But that compressed look with off camera flash is something I avoided for a long time, not because I did not know how, but because like you said it looked "modern" or even more digital. In the video I commented about not being used to long lenses anymore because that lens mostly sits on a shelf. I much prefer the look of my 35 & 50mm lenses.
But as a portrait photographer I need to have a way of separating my images from "everyone else out there with a camera" and off camera flash can help me do this..... So I try to mix it up and use it when it is needed for fill, main, etc...
I am rambling a bit but appreciate your insight and def agree, Cheers!
hello could you tell me if the godox trigger system works with the canon eos v1 thank you
That is the system I used in the video and yes it works quite well. This was the Ad600 and the pro 2 trigger👍
Let's get right into it... after 3:30 minutes. The video is more about the content creator than the content.
What’s the flash sync speed on the 1v
I believe it is 1/250th 👍🏻
I got a question for ya.... can you use TTL with that Flashpoint/Godox trigger on the Canon 1V? Have you tried it yet??
I was having trouble getting my flash to go into TTL with my trigger. I thought I had bought a strobe that did not have TTL ( turns out that was a different strobe I bought years ago - an Orlit) trying to figure out what the issue is. I am pretty sure it will work with the 1V but have not done it yet. I plan to run some tests and will let you know the results.
I have a canon elan 7 coming in you think it will work with the Godox AD400 system?
Have not tested but have no reason to think that it would not. I just used a Godox flash with my EOS 3 and it worked great. I believe those cameras are pretty comparable. Enjoy the new camera 👍
@@Distphoto thanks for the response and relieving some stress!
Total mix of informations, not sure what was the main subject of the video. So confusing, without any valuable infos..
As the title says. Using off camera flash with the Canon EOS 1V
Portra 400 is getting stupidly expensive.
Agreed. Everything is getting stupid expensive 👍
i have the same light and trigger and recently got a canon 1n and they dont communicate. i guess i gotta find a 1v
Hmm. That is strange, and a bummer. I was looking into the 1N and see no reason why it would not work. I believe the on camera flashes work in ttl on the camera. makes me wonder if something off with the hot shoe? Wish I knew someone else with a 1N... I do have an EOS 3 but have never tried.
@@Distphoto my 600 rt works with it in Ttl but the st r3 transmitter doesn’t, I put the flashpoint in M and ttl and it didn’t work , at least the 600 rt gives me something
@@Itaketoomanypics that is strange… the str3 and 600 should work identically I would think.. Maybe contact Canon?
right? i looked up the Manuel and it lists the 1v but not the 1n @@Distphoto
