- Опубликовано: 28 авг 2024
- In this extended episode we venture to one of the most remote areas on the planet to take an epic landscape photo which has never been captured before. We also look at camera batteries plus we show you how to get creative by using ICM (Intentional Camera Movement) to create arty results. If that's not enough, we also visit a community darkroom to see how easy it is for a complete novice to make a traditional darkroom print.
Our September Part 1 show is out Sunday 28th August.

I think Analogue Affairs is my favourite segment of any of these shows. Thank you
Glad to hear it Brian. Thanks for watching.
Super episode. I am a member of the Inverness Darkroom and it really is a wonderful resource. The founders Matt, Rachel and Brian are so welcoming and some of the most knowledgable darkroom people I know. And Matt is one of the best and most patient teachers ever. Total privilege to be involved.
Thanks for sharing your experience Gael. All the best.
Nice to see Ruth in the darkroom.... best part of the show
Ruth is always the best part of the show! Thanks for watching.
Fantastic show, so glad I found this a couple of years ago. May this last forever.
We don't plan on being here forever, but we're not going anywhere soon! Thanks for watching.
So glad to have you guys back. Hurray 🎉🎊
We're here!
Loved the darkroom piece and the way Matt made you do all the hands on stuff.
Yes. It feels like an age since the last episode.😀
Sorry about that. But we're back now.
Great episode guys and welcome back! Brilliant analogue affairs!! See you all at the NEC for a catch up and maybe pizza here!
Before digital photography came along, I made prints in my home darkroom for years. I would sometimes spend as much as 8 hours developing film and making prints. I miss it sometimes.
You should give it another go!
Great show & content, as usual
Great you are all back from your well deserved break. Looking forward to the upcoming episodes. The usual interesting features from all the team once again. Thank you.
...and once again the best phtotgraphy show online ever...so pleased and thankful for all your efforts...greetings from Hamburg.
I did black and white wet darkroom via my community darkroom for several years. It was such great fun and so relaxing - I wouldn't have missed it for the world. I love the digital these days, but still love the wet darkroom too.
Thanks for sharing Biddy.
@@PhotographyOnline My Pleasure folks!
Welcome back! Fantastic show as always, I sure would like to win those Newell batteries! Hope you guys had a great holiday.
Hi Mark. Thanks for watching as always and good luck in the competition.
Great to have you guys back!! Marcus’ pano is magnificent, I don’t think he will get another cloud like that gem. Thank you all. Ps. Even the battery feature was good. For reference Duracell camera batteries last well too.
Thanks Dominic
When doing ICM, zooming or rotating the camara around its axis will also result in interesting shapes :)
Thanks Ronald
Another wonderful show! Welcome back! I love creating images by several means. I love to draw, paint, wood burn, photograph, and I'm sure that film photography would be just as fun as all of the rest. I have 2 third party batteries for my Canon and one of them won't hold a charge long enough to get used and the other doesn't last but about half as long as the Canon battery. Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge!
Cheers Jon.
40-month warranty on every Newell product with no quibble immediate exchange if you get a problem
Another excellent show. Thanks to Nick for the ICM lesson and tips, and even though I’m not into film photography the darkroom is very interesting.
Great episode. Loved the darkroom part. Just one point though. When using the focus grain finder there should have been a piece of photographic paper on the easel to take into account the thickness of the paper.
Thanks for the tip!
Another fantastic show!!! Thank you so much to the Photography on Line Team.
Our pleasure!
Love, love, love Marcus's image. It is phenomenal and looked so scary being on that cliff face. I would love to go to St Kilda and one day, I will. Thank you for such a great show, as always.
Thanks for watching Chris. All the best.
You have been missed, welcome back great show so much information and one of your very best, thanks for continuing to make these wonderful videos, regards, Colin.
Thank you kindly!
Amazing content as usual. Everything was quite interesting, but if i had to choose one section, in this case i´d go for "The Two of Us". Such a great image by Marcus. Congrats on the continued effort.
Ah, the dark room- what a treat!
Thanks
I enjoyed watching the darkroom development. Reminded me of my uncle who used to use darkroom to developed his photos back before digital became a thing. I may try & get into developing photos in a darkroom. Nice way to end the episode. 👍
Thanks David. You should certainly try film photography and see how you get on. It will probably improve your digital photography, as you’ll find you can’t rely on technology so much.
Great to see you all back . And I do like a good icm sometimes they look like painting 🖌️
Thanks for watching Shaun.
Love your image from St Kilda and so glad the light worked for you. Truly epic image. I also loved your article on icm as this is something I’ve been doing over the past few months and love the more ‘arty’ results it creates
Thanks Andy. Great to hear you enjoyed the show.
As a pro photographer I use mainly 3rd party batteries and have never had a problem, as long as I have a spare in my bag I feel safe. I went digital in 1999, though initially the batteries were larger{1D]. I think I used the EP-6? first in 2001 [D30] and to date I don't think I have thrown away a battery, though I may have lost a couple.
Fantastic show as always. Thank you for all your hard work. Ruth , I love the prints 👌
Thanks for your continued support Ian. All the best,
Best of luck to everyone, from Karachi-Pakistan.
Greetings From Brooklyn, New York! Keep Up The Good Work!!!
Thanks for watching
You all are just bloody marvelous. Love the content, the locations and the out takes. Keep up the great work.
Cheers Andrew
Great to see you guys back online. Great content as always, the best photography channel on youtube!
Thanks very much James.
Every month i really enjoy to discover your new video. I learn
A lot of things and at the same
Time i can improve my english
I m french! It s a very good idea
To put subtitles.
Hi Duc. Thanks for watching. It’s good to hear that you appreciate the subtitles - we spend a lot of time on making sure they’re right.
Newell Plus for Canon R5/6 are as good as Canon and 1/5th of the price.
Another brilliant show. While not having any history with film, I really enjoyed the Analogue Affairs segment.
Thanks Gary. You should try film at some point - it opens up a whole load of new areas for creativity.
@@PhotographyOnline I am looking at picking up a Bronica medium format and some Ilford. Just for fun. I'll still get the film developed and scanned, though. 😀
Happy you are Back! Great Episode!👍
More to come!
A Zenit !! My first SLR ... back when I was full frame 😉 ,.. actually I did once have a half-frame 35mm Ricoh too, so it's a half-joke. Great darkroom feature, and chapeau Marcus on getting almost satisfaction, that 'edge of falling to an early death' location gives me anxiety.
Thanks for watching Andy. Get back in the darkroom!
Beautiful edge at the end of the world
Thanks Ziga.
Great you have you back on RUclips 👌 please send some scottish rain over to mainland europe 🥵
With pleasure! Thanks as always Stefan.
I have 3 Newell batteries that came secondhand with my second hand D850. They have been just as good as the original (only one), without any degradation. I think they are a very good and valid option.
Good to know Phil. Thanks for watching.
That's great to hear. Enter the competition and you might win yourself a fourth one. 🙂
@@Paul-Genge Yes, thank you, I have entered the competition and would certainly welcome the addition of another Newell battery. I must add...that I have tried many different third party batteries over the years, on different cameras, from my introduction to digital cameras 15+ years ago, (after a previous 25+ years of film cameras) to date, and I have been disappointed with most. As per the narrative, I was also a proponent of buying original batteries with the added expense but reliability and longevity offered, but I have been impressed with the Newell batteries on my D850. It's a great competition and some people will be very happy!
Great to have you back the content is excellent as always
Much appreciated!
Always excellent and thoroughly enjoyed 😉 👌
I'm very happy with the RavPower batteries for my RP and R6.
Those Newell charges look, however, very good.
Good to hear John. Thanks for watching
Brilliant show again, well done to all the Team 👍
Cheers Craig. Might see you at TPS in a few weeks if you are there again.
@@PhotographyOnline yes I'll be their again and defo come n have a chat again with you all. 😜
A great episode, I missed you guys. Thoroughly enjoyed the complete video.
Thanks Michael..
Great show guys as usual, awesome shooting Marcus.
Thanks very much Tim. All the best.
Great show as always. Certainly worth the wait.
Thanks for watching.
Such a great episode! The dark room memories kicked in sweet nostalgia!! Keep it up guys 👏👏👏
Thanks George. Good to hear it took you down memory lane.
Excellent as Always , well done
Thanks very much Donald

Great episode guys.
Thanks Neil. Glad you enjoyed it.
great show & well done to Marcus for that cracking pano, would love to see it at 2m wide! I have used a mixture of Canon & third party batteries for 4 years now from my Canon 80D days to my current R5. I went online and researched comparative tests and whilst I didn't do a scientific test both of the brands I bought have lasted well. I think the Newell ones were too new to be in the test reviews when I bought my last batteries but certainly tempted by the 'winter' ones as even if you keep the battery warm in a pocket it gets cold in the camera over time. Just wondered Harry as the R5 only lets you shoot at the highest shutter speeds if the battery is over 60% was there any difference in that element of performance.
Hi Steve. Thanks for watching. There’s no difference between the Newell and Canon batteries when it comes to high burst rate performance. All the best
Another great episode!
Thanks Bob.
Great show! I never miss an episode. I am disappointed that I cannot find a source for the Newell Batteries (for my R5) here in the states. (or is there ?)
It will be coming soon!
I have used Power Extra batteries in my Canon. They have been better than my OEM Canon ones. Had them several years now.
Good to know. Thanks for watching
B as M4/3 has a 2x crop factor. So 200mm on M4/3 is the 35mm equivalent of 400mm. Assuming that the same megapixel level is used.
My Panasonic GX80 with the 45-175mm lens gives me a reach at the long end equivalent of 350mm.
My Fuji X-T3 with my 55-200mm lens at the long end, gives me a reach equivalent to 300mm at the long end.
My A7IV with my Tamron 70-180mm gives me 180mm at the long end.
Thing is my GX80 is only 16mp, the X-T3 is 26mp and the A7IV is 33mp. So the reach is a combo of factors. Of the three options my 1.5x crop X-T3 would have the longest magnification at 100% on my PC as taking 26mp and the focal length together give the largest magnification.
While an argument can be made for quality and longevity of OEM batteries, the prices are very high. Have used a mix of them and 3rd party offerings and found no issues in quality of the batteries or how long they last. The other factor is even less desirable are the amount of counterfeit batteries on the market. I have found these to be very prevalent with the Canon LP-E6 being a popular fake. They are made cheap, potentially unsafe and made to imitate the genuine product. IHave even bought batteries from respected national retailers who were ticked in to reselling fake products as so hard to tell the difference. The one had swollen and I had to pry it out of the camera that is what made me look in to it being genuine. Much scarier than a reputable 3rd party company.
Hi, in your camera skills section,
your ICM idea can be done with film in the darkroom by moving your easel up and down or side to side, and that is repeatable.
Thanks for the suggestion Peter. Cheers
I have had a canon battery fail after one year I also have two third party batteries that have lasted several years.
I used Canon battery's X 3 they lasted for my Canon T7i.
Another great episode. I’ve returned two weeks go from my holiday to Harris/Lewis and Skye and the weather was atrocious he whole time 🤣 Booked to come back to Skye next May though 👍 Can I be cheeky and ask where the location with the sunken boat is please ?😉
Hi Mark. When you say the weather was “atrocious” - do you mean it was clear blue skies and harsh light?!! 🤣
The sunken boat is at Kyleakin near the Skye Bridge. It’s a location we’ve only recently discovered
@@PhotographyOnline I wish 🤣 more like mist, wind and sideways rain 🤣
@@PhotographyOnline Thanks, I’m back up to Skye next May for 5 days so I’ll try and fit it in 👍 Is it easy to get to?
@@PhotographyOnline found it on Google maps, thanks again for the info. 👍
It appears that Newell batteries are not sold in the US market. Can anyone recommend another aftermarket battery that is available in the US? I'm looking for a Canon LP-E6.
Can the Newell batteries be charged in the standard Canon charger, or do you need to buy a dedicated Newell charger
Can use any charger
Hope you all had a good break
Yes we did. Thanks Jeff.
Regarding your question about the 100% magnification image size, I'm not sure that your answer (or more accurately your example used) is fully correct - although I confess I can't quite get my head round it, so would appreciate your expert view. While I agree it's all dependent on pixel density rather than any other parameter like crop factor, you said a 50MP full frame sensor would give greater magnification than a 20MP MFT sensor. While the MFT crop factor is 2X the actual sensor size is 1/4 of full frame. Therefore, a full frame sensor with the same or greater pixel density would need to be at least 80MP wouldn't it?
Hi Keith. Yes you are correct. Thanks for pointing this out,
Your video should have mentioned that the battery contest is only open to UK residents.
It’s open to everyone but some products cannot be shipped by air. If you enter and win, a prize will be sorted out for you.
@@PhotographyOnline Thanks. While it won't help my odds, you may wish to revise your published rules to match your intentions.
When I used to print I always focused on a place of old photographic paper in the holder Not directly on the baseboard as in the video.
Yes you are correct. Thanks for watching.
Great show, will you have shirts for sale at the photography show?
Hi Ian. We’ll only be taking a limited selection but we will have some there.
@@PhotographyOnline Okay, hope to see you there!
Note to some.... Newell rules state "The prize promotion is open to all UK residents, except Park Cameras, and employees of any brand associated with this competition."
Hi Craig. The code is “NEWELL-COMP-15”. It will only work on Newell products.
Hi Craig, the competition rules do state that. We cannot ship Lithium Ion batteries everywhere in the world, but we will do our best to get a prize to the winners wherever they reside. We welcome everyone to enter. I have already stated this on the pinned post at the top of this list, and on other viewers comments previously. Thanks for entering.
Were in the in State can one find the Newell batteries?
Coming soon!
Have you tried the levelling base by neewer? it works out nice for panos!
Hi Vidyadhar. Most of the tripods we use have a built in levelling base, but the one I was using for this does not. We'll be doing a feature soon on levelling bases. Thanks for the suggestion.
The country is having heavy downpour, it's almost impossible to take the gear out.
Hopefully it will dry up in Pakistan soon. Most places are having a drought at the moment and would be happy to have your rain!
Love the show as always so informative. Tried to use the promo code without success …. contacted Park Cameras who weren’t aware of the code ?
Hello Steve, sorry to hear about this. What item did you try to buy?
@@PhotoTEQ Newell batteries for a Canon R5.
Any update ? Code still doesn’t work.
I usually buy Duracell batteries for my Sony. Performance seems identical to the Sony branded batteries. But like the Sony batteries, performance in low temperatures is abysmal. I'd be interested to see how the Newell Supracells perform in low temperatures.
We’ve not had a chance to use the Supracells in low temps yet but we will in a few months. Thanks for watching.
Supracell can work down to -20c we have them for FZ-100 type
Got me interested and then I find Park don’t sell the Newell D4 equivalent battery…
They might do soon.
New model on its way next month. Launching at The Photography Show, compatible with Z9 too. Watch this space.
Just watched you feature on darkroom printing, always puzzled by the test strip timing of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, etc. Surely 5 to 10 seconds is one stop exposure 10 to 15 seconds is half stop, 15 to 20 seconds is a quarter stop, 20 to 25 is an eighth of a stop, 25 to 30 is a sixteenth of a stop etc, yet we expose our image in the camera at one stop, half stop or third stop increments (referring to film, shutter speed, aperture or ISO). Shouldn’t it be 5, 10, 20, 40. Aiming for an ideal exposure time of 10 to 20 seconds the aperture is adjusted, by a half stop or one stop or more on the enlarger lens to suit the ideal exposure time. Am I strange in my method and thinking?
You are correct in your theory. There’s no one way to do this and different people will do things different ways. The guy in the darkroom did actually explain that many people do the method you have suggested but we edited it out (along with lots of other bits) because we need to keep to time. I guess it’s just down to personal preference, but you raise a valid point. Thanks for watching.
Is the sunken boat, at Kylekin by any chance
Yes it is.
Doesn't look like the Newell batteries ship to Canada/USA 🙁
Please enter the competition, if you win we can work out how to get them to you later. We can't send lithium ion batteries everywhere in the world, but we will do our best.
Discount on Newell batteries? Sounds like that won't do my Fujifilm cameras any good.
No, it won’t do them much good at all! What ones do you have?
We have T-125, W-235, W-126 and NP-95 covered. 2 different performance levels including PLUS for the main two.
@@PhotographyOnline I have the X-T3 and the X-H2s
@@zemekiel oh, we be thought you meant you had film cameras! 🤣
Is that t-shirt 18% grey?
Not exactly but it’s close!
I have Nikon z6ii but have been told not to use third party batteries which is a shame
Who told you that? Nikon?!
@@PhotographyOnline been told by someone who owns one and where I purchased mine from have been a bit scared to Try third party incase damage camera
@@karengoody8142 seems like someone is pulling your leg. As long as you use reputable brands, then there is no risk.
@@PhotographyOnline Thank you that is so good to know . Always enjoy watching photography on line .
Hi Karen, we have plenty of Nikon Z series users with our batteries. We even do a vertical control grip for your camera, at a fraction of the price of the original Nikon. Perhaps you might like to tell your friend
I am disappointed in the report on 3rd party batteries. You are recommending a product without that a comparison to other manufacturers. I use several different batteries from different manufacturers as well as OEM, I also have chargers from 3rd party suppliers. In my opinion it is more about avoiding the fakes than the quality of 3rd party replacements.
How do you suggest we do a comparison of all batteries from Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fuji, Olympus, Panasonic, Pentax, plus all the 3rd party ones over the course of a year, with only one camera to test them in?!
@@PhotographyOnline You have misunderstood. It is 3rd battery manufacturers not camera manufacturers.
Am I the only one that skips the "analogue" portion of every show when the film section is on? I have no interest in film so it is filler space of no interest to me. Still, it is well done to the usual high standards, just no interest.
Hi Don. We aim to cater for a wide range of photographers, which include those who prefer to shoot film (of which there are many, and it’s a growing market). We do mostly digital content and much of the analogue content can be applied to digital photography too. You won’t be the only one who skips the analogue sections but there are many others who watch purely for the analogue features. Hope that makes sense.
@@PhotographyOnline To be clear, I am not complaining, and I am sure there are those interested, but can you actually track if sections of the video are skipped so to you know what is popular and not?
@@donsmith2833 yes we can see what works and what doesn’t.
