That was quite a bit of mileage around central London....
A couple of tips from an ex F3 shooter:
For low level pics, the one over the water, take the pentaprism out, the same for overhead ones holding the camera upside down.
For quick focusing learn the rocking chair method, spin the focus ring till it looks good, overshoot slightly, spin back and overshoot slightly again, spin forward again just a little (kind of half way) and your in focus. Like a rocking chair, it will go back and forward until it finds its resting place.
Extra tip, spend a few evenings with the camera in your hands whilst relaxing watching TV or something and build muscle memory by repeatedly triggering and reloading.
Really enjoyed this one Sam.
Hearing your thought process between using film as opposed to digital was fascinating.
Looking forward to more like this 👍
I really love these film photography vids man its the challenge that makes it entertaining and the photos are sick ;D
Love this.... POV done right with film :)
This was a very nice pov. I always enjoy hearing the settings after seeing the photo. Never stop!
Great video Sam and some sick shots 🔥🔥🇬🇧
Good one. As someone 'raised' on film and darkroom, I found subsequent digital images 'cold' by comparison. We can scan film now (although the processing /scanning can be costly) but previously we had to rely on the lens sharpness and focussing technique (as you found) for sharp photos. To compromise, I don't do more than base sharpen raw files for screen, only on big prints. I also slightly warm up images and adjust to a small minus clarity. It still doesn't really look like film, but it's a compromise.
Brilliant video as always Sam. Interesting to see the differences with film and digital too
I’ve loved all the film content recently man. A family member gave me an old Canon Rebel XS SLR a month or so ago and it’s been fun to play with. Always catching myself looking at the back after each frame.
Film cameras hit different 🔥📷
Great video. Like to see you learn shooting film. Keep up the good stuff.
Love that camera strap dude! Looks so cool
The shot of the cinema sign has to be my favourite 🤩🤩
Love the F3
Hi Sam , enjoyed this film photography series immensely .
I had been thinking for awhile about picking up my Nikon F100 SLR which hadn’t been used since 2004 .
Grabbed some Kodak portrait 100 a couple of weeks ago and finally went wandering around the Art Gallery yesterday after being inspired with your previous video .
If you get the chance you should try out a F100 (a semi professional camera released about the same time as the F5 , I’m sure you will be impressed
I has served me well for my ‘life in the pit’ ( live music photography ) over a 10 year time period .
When I started shooting bands my Lit’l F301 was the camera I started out with before moving up to the F100.
Keep up the great work
Nikon F3 is my dream analog camera, someday i must have one
Very nice video! Nice to see the trials and tribulations of a new film shooter. A couple helpful tips: when shooting with prime lenses, learn to focus with your Hyperfocal Distance and Depth of Field and you’ll enjoy a greater number of keepers per roll. The beauty of these methods is you’ll learn to eventually begin to shoot without having to bring the camera to your eye when you know those in focus distances/ranges. It’s a great way to get “grab” shots in street shooting situations where you don’t want to telegraph your intentions. Learn to shoot at larger apertures to get greater subject separation, especially when you’re shooting a subject across the street against a background; the photo will have greater impact. Keep up the great progress!
The shot at 01:30 deserves to be in a gallery - amazing!
Sam, glad to see you learning film. The next step, if you so choose, is shooting black and white, then learning how to develop and print it. (much easier than color). Instead of Photoshop, you dodge and burn while exposing the paper. :)
Good luck in your ventures..
like the old retro style. nice pictures
Don't really understand film but looks interesting. 👍🏼📸 Great to see someone using these cameras as they look like a lot of fun. I guess I'll learn with you! Great video 👍🏼📸😁
Are you metering in camera eg an auto mode? And what was the thought process behind pulling the film at one stop (iso 400)? Thanks mate…
Very interesting video. Thanks
Hi Sam, great video. I've also recently picked up a F3 and started going out shooting experimenting a few different film stocks and also getting used to shooting manual. I am an enthusiast, therefore, not a professional photographer. I do rely on local stores to help me develop and scan the negatives. My question is do you scan the negatives into jpg format or tiff format? Also, what are your thoughts on editing photos shot on film? Do you think post production destroys the purpose of shooting in film (as each as its own unique characteristics)? Lastly, what is the lens you used for this shoot? Much appreciate it.
Hi i was the person wo commented on an old video that you missed the shot I'm a film shooter for a couple of years now in the time i commented on your video i was in a transition of being a film shooter so yesterday i purchased a Nikon F3 that's coming in tomorrow so for that reason i was looking up some you tube videos about the F3 and i stumbled on yours and that's when i noticed that you went back to that place i couldn't believe it great men really cool!!!
can I ask what lens did you use for this shoot? Own an F3 myself and currently interested in buying a zoom lens. Thank you and great video as always!!!
Really wanting to get a film camera nice video
What focal length lens were you using?
Got one new with the Voigtlander 58/1.4 Luv it..
I also love film as well, I just haven't done it enough. I have an idea about film photography but I know it would be so expensive to shoot an entire year on film and then share your photos... I really want to do it as well. Make a POV of every session you take of film and it would be super entraining to watch.
you will make a tutorial with all the process that it takes to develop the film and export it to your pc ?
Great video, very rich guy with portra
Hi,
what about the lens? I' m looking for a manual Nikon zoom lens myself...
Did you say what lens you were using?
some nice shotshuh?! I'm curious about the lens you used here
Nice
Im a local photographer and i do a lot of portraits, I currently use a canon eos rp, but I'm looking into getting either the sony a7r4 or the sony a74? NEED HELP????
Did you scan your self?
Or film shop?
What film was it? Nice shots and F3
Amazing Shots Sam
Please can you buy a Kodak Tri - X 400 and do a pov with it
I think you will enjoy it for sure
Thank You for sharing everything with us
We love you man and keep shooting
Greetings from Germany
What street is that, the one you spotted a urus?
please sam... all we want to know is what that lens is
What lens is this?
Hello. Nice video. Hello. Nice video. I am also a new user of Nikon FM2 classic 35mm film. I want to buy a zoom lens and I would like to ask what you used on your F3. It looks like a 35-70 Nikkor zoom AI but you didn't mention it anywhere. Is it secret? thanks for the info, Nice photos 👍
Hi Sam! I went street photography yesterday and I had to sort out about 60% of the pictures. I am not a pro photographer as you are, but I wondered how many shots do you miss or how many pics do you sort out at the end ? Greetings from Germany
When I typically go shoot it’s common to miss shots or not be happy with them once you get home, the final video I upload is typically only a small portion of what I did that day. Hope this helps.
@@Opticalwander Same here
@@Opticalwander Thanks for the answer :)
Yeah you're not alone, out of 200 photos I sometimes take, I can sometimes be happy with 20-50 shots.
I shoot like ~300ish per session and can have anywhere from 20-80ish keepers. usually a lot of duplicates.
Dudeeee, that shot at 1:26 is killer! Bloody love that shit.
Thank you sir! I’ll take that as a massive compliment coming from you 🙏
Maybe one day you can try to shoot with an old Soviet camera? I'm from Poland and those cameras are popular here.
Interesting 👍🏼📸
Hey Sam, curious what the thought process was behind overexposing the portra by a stop?
I didn’t it was an 800film shot at 400 so I was under exposing it to provide less grain in the natural bright light. I made this decision based off the fact I didn’t want to have over exposed images in the bright light and I even could of gone lower I think maybe iso 200. I had no other film I.e portra 400 to use
@@Opticalwander ah you are right I had it backwards. Thanks for the explanation!
@@Opticalwander actually, I am thinking about it (I am new to film too!) and wouldn't shooting at 400 when in aperture priority mean it is overexposing? ie, it would be 1/200s at 800 but 1/100s at 400, so a stop overexposed for 800 film. Not trying to argue, just thinking out loud so we can learn together
@@Opticalwander sorry bud but you are incorrect. Setting your iso to 400 will in fact be overexposing your film by 1 stop. You’re probably thinking about iso in terms of digital where lowering your iso by a stop will darken the whole picture. In film lowering your iso will make your film less sensitive to light and your camera light meter will react accordingly by giving you a slower shutter speed affectively exposing the film to light longer. So realistically you were overexposing your film by a stop. Film likes more light and color film can be overexposed by several stops. Portra for example is a film that loves to be overexposed, also over exposing film will give you nicer grain and add more saturation to your photo. Under exposed film will bring more grain and make your pictures come out muddy. When shooting film you have to think differently than when shooting digital. Where digital is apt to blow out highlights, film will have a greater latitude and keep more detail in the highlights. In film iso is all about how sensitive the film is to light.
@@mattleslie you’re correct the film will be over exposed by a stop.
God it’s so sad how many nice scenes are ruined by street signs like the red sign outside that dark pub. Nice photos today though! :D
Mate surely a film camera video has to be done in Camden town
First
16:11 perfection
although I would love to use a camera like this my shaky hands would cause me to spend more money on the film rather than the camera
One fault, you walk too quickly. Pick interesting areas. A good background, wait for your actors to fill the space. Do a few! Forget film limitations of endless shooting. Don't hurry to finish film! If a few frames left, it's for next session. That large zoom a hindrance. One Lens! A 35mm or 50mm. You can use "Zone" focusing. Use smaller apertures, make an area of focus from 2.5m to say 5m. It will work out, use the stop down (screen darker) and try evaluate. Move, if possible, to BW. as you use higher ISO. Push film, I use no more than 800~1200. Very Enjoyable! Well done!
I'm confused on how you put the pictures you take on video 😂 I can't process it, help
They get scanned on to a computer 🙏
Dude, why pay the price of 800 film and shoot it at 400,instead of paying less for 400 film? Something I'd like to tell you is you can remove the viewfinder of the nikon f3 to get a waist level point of view!! You could use in the scene with the waters and the car!!
