As usual Martin, I have learned some new techniques. You are a real professional and a wonderful instructor. I am myself learning both incident metering and spot metering. Thanks again. RS. Canada
Thanks Martin, I've really been trying to learn the metering and your videos have been a Godsend. I'd love to see you photograph those beautiful dogs of yours, especially backlit like they were in this video. Cheers from Prescott, Arizona!
Hello Martin, Great video, well explained metering and a great result. Thought you should know that on your eBay site selling the tulip, the following statement shows and I think you would probably want to correct it. It says: “A Fine Art Print created using my 4x5 Pinhole camera”. Much success with the auction. Andrew
Martin, you deserve a lot more subscribers than you have, mate. I know how much effort goes into making these video’s, I’ve really enjoyed “binge” watching over the past couple of days. I’ve been working with DDX for a couple of years and I think I have a comprehensive understanding of its personality both with HP5 and lately Fomapan 200 in 5x4 sheets. I am quite interested in Pyro and its qualities so I’ve paid particular attention to your dev technique. Looking forward to your next episode. All the best.
Lovely final print for the tulip! And interesting comparison of the two metering methods, agree with that spot is the way to go! And thanks for the shout out!
Hi Martin, I loved this video thank you. Would you give an overview of the Nova FP film processor or maybe even a video. There is nothing on RUclips and very few reviews of it. Many thanks and keep up the great work..Malc
Great image Martin and enjoyed the metering comparison too. I'll be interested in your results from the 510 Pyro having first seen it on 'Pictorial Planet' video with John Finch and then Roger giving it a go on 'SFLAB'.
Nice one Martin. You will like the 510 Pyro. As for the busy roads, I for one am finding it difficult to cope with it at the moment. I worked through the whole of the pandemic lockdown on extended shifts, but at least the roads were free of idiots. Since the end of the lockdown, it hasn't been a single day that I have not had a near miss due to the mindless way that quite a few people drive, on the roads and on the motorways. Keep safe and I look forward to your next video. Thanks.
Your welcome, since this video I have done another camera review which will be uploaded next week, in that video used the Pyro 510 and was quire impressed, so see how it goes
2nd time watching this one. LOL! Didn't notice the undies the first time hanging their on the close line. You are the real deal Martin!
Great video, shows you what you can do with just a flower and bit of cloth in the background.
Old school, is and always will be, the best photographic school. Nice to see you’re collaborating with Rog, from the IOW!
Thank you

yes I have seen it, it was copied from a previous sale, unfortuanly because there is a bid in I cant alter it, ,thanks all the same
I use my spot meter all the time with great results. Sometimes i will spot off an old Kodak grey card if the situation is right for it.

Very nice video and image. When I do a big B&W print on my printer I can almost feel the black and white cartridge emptying. :-)
I know the feeling , thanks

So It's not just me, after the lock downs people drive even more crazy than they did before...
Nice video again !
Thank you
Thank you i have learned a lot from this video :)
Glad to hear that, thanks
Suns out, guns out 💪🏼
Lol , suns out, Leica's about, thanks David
What about allowing for the 3X N.D filter on the spot meter reading ?. Did you take the filter off before you took the spot readings ?.
Yes you could do it that way, prefer to have a clear view were the 1 degree spot is reading though
The filter was on the lens all the time, I set my light meter to compensate for the loss of 3 stops
