Aww, thank you so much! I’m definitely trying to go for a calm vibe on this channel 😀 I find many YT videos far too “hyped up” and frantic for my taste.
The music reminds me of the Bladerunner soundtrack by Vangelis; very nice. You have a good eye for photos, too. You say you were looking for landscapes, but I would say your candid snapshots are at least as good as the landscapes. Where is your area? It's beautiful.
Aww, thank you Jeremy! Hah, well spotted on the Bladerunner influence! It’s what I listen to most when I’m in the darkroom working on prints! Perfect length and mood for a session of dodging and burning! And yes, you’re right, I can never resist the street photography although that place is definitely too deserted for it. Street is what I shot most in the last 10 years, but with covid I’m now transitioning to landscapes. The area here is the Basque Country. Shooting street is relatively frustrating here, especially after having lived in Berlin for a few years, but we do have some very beautiful landscapes, so that’s what I focus on these days!
Great video. Like the location shots. I used that kit once and had to make a contraption to rotate a paterson tank. Managed to develop 2 120 rolls (provia and velvia) with no temperature control and they came out nice. Unfortunately I had no more slide film to try and go for a 3rd roll. I now have slide film and 3 magic kits so I’ll push the number of rolls. Keep these videos coming 👍
Thanks Rogério! Glad you liked the video! That’s really good to hear that you managed without temperature control! That was my guess too that it should work out anyway. With these 3 bath kits it shouldn’t make that much of a difference. I definitely want to shoot some more rolls to see whether I can get 4 rolls out of this and I have some Velvia in the freezer, just waiting for some colour to show up in the woods now! By the way, in the Jobo I can develop 2 rolls at once with this kit, so oxidation is less of a problem! And I’ll definitely try to keep these videos coming more regularly now!
Sat here with my morning cup of tea of course.......being English and of a certain maturity :) Your videos always chill me out. Envious of the M6 but happy with my sixty five year old Rolleiflex. Good stuff Lilly as always.
I’m glad you enjoy my videos Gary! And I do try to make my videos as relaxing as possible. Trying to counteract that stressful world out there! Well, you might be envious of my M6, but I’m envious of your Rolleiflex! I love my Rolleicord, but it was a bit of a price compromise! Took me years to save up for the M6 and the Cord. My budget just wouldn’t have stretched to a Rolleiflex and nowadays the prices have gone up even more!
@@LillySchwartz Sorry to tell you Lilly, but I purchased another Rolleiflex yesterday! Too good an opportunity to pass up. Beautiful condition and only £600 pounds. I don't know what I will do it with though.
@@LillySchwartz The planar 3.5f 75mm. If I could just afford a wide angle one.....and find one! Well then this old Englishman will be a content happy man.
My Cord has a Xenar. With all the comparisons it always seemed to me the difference was only visible wide open in the corners. So, not so important! Still, I always wanted one of these f/2.8 Rolleiflexes! Great that you got it for such a good price though, that’s really cool! If you’re looking for a wide angle TLR, look into the Mamiya C220! They have interchangeable lenses and there is a wide angle lens for it! I have been meaning to import one from Japan since I only have an 80 for it, but international shipping is a mess right now!
You are correct about Ektachrome being blue. Fifty years ago color positive slide films used were usually picked for color rendering. Ekta for blue green, Kodachrome for reds, Agfachrome for truest color, Fuji was not used that much in U.S. My go to was always Agfachrome unless I was shotting something that needed a tint. Pastels were usually done with Ekta.
Ah, that’s reassuring then if it’s supposed to be blue! I wish we still had the other options now! I don’t shoot that much slide film because most options nowadays have very strong tints. The Rollei chromes have a yellow tint since they are originally for aerial photography. It’s ok cross processed because skin tones fall into the right spectrum, but I still don’t use it much!
Ages ago I processed my first roll of E6, a roll of Agfachrome 64. I used water bath in my darkroom sink to control temperature. I think I also used Tetnal chemistry. I was scared to death, of course! But the results were perfect and Agfachrome was such a gorgeous film stock. Depending on the subject and my mood, I could choose it over Kodachrome; that’s saying a lot for me. As far as controlling colour cast with temperature, I know nothing; timing might have an effect, too. However, I think the manufacturer of the chemistry might have more to do with it. For example, genuine Kodak chemistry might produce a more neutral balance for E100. You might want to ping Matt Stoffel to see if he has any input or can point you to someone else. Great shots, great video (of course) - cheers!
Hah, I was also terrified for my first roll of slide film, but it all worked out great in the end! I never tried Agfachrome, but one of my friends who used to shoot it a lot was just praising it again the other day! Speaking of Kodachrome, I might give Kelly-Shane Fuller from Go Everywhere a holler. He figured out how to develop Kodachrome and is a real colour chemistry wizard, he must know! I once tried his method of developing E6 in HC110 and C41. Some rolls turned out great, others were a mess 😂 good fun though! And thank you, as always I’m glad that you enjoy my video! 😀
Oh wow, what are you planning to do with it? I think in black and white it can still be processed. The process Kelly Shane uses is super involved and needs lots of weird chemicals.
@@LillySchwartz I’m not sure what I’ll do with it. I’ve read up on Kelly’s process (although not recently) and it doesn’t seem commercially viable. As far as b&w goes, examples I’ve seen online didn’t impress me enough to make me want to sacrifice a roll. Maybe if I saw some examples in person and had a project for which the look seemed suited, I would be prepared to give it a try. 🤷♂️
No, it’s definitely not commercially viable. But well, cool that he figured it out anyway! I also didn’t think the BW process looked very good for it. Shame really to have these rolls and no purpose for them!
Good to see you again! Fuji has a different look than Ektachrome, I think Fuji is warmer in the colours. Also having a sous vide cooker is a good backup just incase the jobo fails you. Keep up the good work!
Aww, thank you Sina! I agree, Fuji is much more Magenta than blue, even though blues pop quite a bit too. The Ektachrome is definitely a bit cooler in temperature. And no worries about the sous vide cooker, I have an aquarium heater stashed away in case the heating element on my Jobo ever cracks. The motor can be replaced with a windshield wiper motor too, so I think I’ll always be able to repair it somehow! And I’ll definitely try to keep those videos coming more regularly now!
I'm new here, but this was brilliant! The locations, your peaceful explanations, the way it's all cut together... and the music compliments it all perfectly! Is it your own music? One thing I notice is the photos you share were perfect, couldn't imagine taking that same shot any better. You're a master! You've inspired me to take my camera on a walk in the snowy forest today (in Ontario, Canada) and see what happens. Well done, and stay safe out there.
Aww, thank you Aaron, I’m glad you enjoyed the video and the pictures! That’s great that you got to shoot some snowy landscapes! I don’t get those over here because it hardly ever snows. Maybe once every 7 years? Last time it snowed I just about made it to the beach before it all melted! And yes, it is indeed all my own music! I tend to make a lot of dark ambient too, but I try to keep it a bit lighter for these videos 😀 You stay safe out there too!
@@LillySchwartz Yes we have quite a bit of snow here every year. We're on the shores of Georgian Bay, part of the Great Lakes in Ontario. Lots of winter storms to bury us. :) We have a lovely, spacious park here that affords many opportunities to capture nature pictures. Yesterday I took out the 7D II with a 16-35 1:28 II (lens loaned to me by a friend). Great wide angle and wonderful light. The only limitations were my inexperience and huge lack of knowledge. Today we return to the park and I'll take out a 55-250 (Macro 0.85m/2.8ft) lens (with IS, thank goodness, as it'll be hand-held). I love the music. It really adds to the atmosphere of the video! You're quite a talented lady. Looking forward to checking out more videos!

Color cast in slide film, can be due to the color temperature of the light source. Beach scenes out of doors, mid day, are quite blue in nature of the color of light. Our eyes and brain compensate for it. Some people use Color correction filters, suited to the light source. Technically you would need a color temperature meter and CC filters.
I have some colour correction filters and sometimes use them with certain types of film - especially Tungsten cine film. A friend told me that many of the slide films that are left were actually meant to impart a colour cast. They just happened to discontinue most of the natural looking slide films which is a bit of a shame. I do like some of those effects though and they can be helpful when shooting at night!
Thank you so much Mumtaz! No need to get rid of the digital cameras though or what are you going to use to shoot your videos? 😂 I kept all my digital stuff when I switched back to film, which was a good decision or there would be no videos now! 😎📸
Might give E100 a try. Yeah, the Jobo is pretty expensive. I went and priced some, used, and they're something like $2500 at a minimum!!! What you should do is buy a sax and when everyone starts to annoy you, give them a blast!!! :D :P
I quite liked the E100. I think I prefer the slightly warmer tones of Fuji Provia, but the E100 definitely has an interesting vibe too. It’s on the pricey side though! Crazy that Jobos are so expensive now. I bought mine for €250 + tanks which was a steal even back then. As for the Sax: I have plenty of instruments with which I can take revenge on the neighbours, but they always take being annoying to a whole new evel. There is someone with a recorder in this house who plays the most obnoxious melodies over and over. The only time I forgive them again is when they give us a blast of Bella Ciao 😉✊
For a pack of E100, here in Oz, it's around $25, but I can get some that expires in May this year for $16.50. A brick of 10 costs $245. Provia is $27 per pack for ISO100. Velvia 50 is $37!!! Rollei Crossbird is $15. That's why I mainly stick to negative film. A lot cheaper!!! Yeah, the prices for Jobos is insane. I've seen some going for $4500, refurbished. I was looking at one of those Filmomats awhile back. Have you heard of them? If you haven't I can give you a link to a review on Max and Jule's YT channel "Analog Insights". I nearly fell over when I saw how much they were. 4000 euros!!! $6500. I'd love to own one, but I'd have to rob a bank to buy it!!! :P You do know that person with a recorder is probably a 10-12 year old kid :D That's why they play those obnoxious tunes :P
Oh yes, I’ve heard of the Filmomat! It’s a nice bit of engineering, but the price is insane. I personally would love a Heiland Electronics TAS, because that would be much more flexible than rotary processing, but it’s definitely still way out of my price range. Rotary processors are easy to build, but that TAS does inversions and has to keep so many different directions of force in check! I can’t pull that off without some more sophisticated engineering knowledge. As for the recorder: This was the first instrument I had to learn at music school and after several years of torture with that instrument I can tell a kid from an adult, definitely too good for a kid. They use recorders in the local Basque folk music and that person plays melodies from that. They play mainly obnoxious marching band music here, which is very repetitive. Drives me up the walls! One can play some pretty sophisticated classical music on the recorder, but all I hear in this neck of the woods is oompa, oompa, tralala 🙄 But hey, at least every now and then he throws in Bella Ciao or the imperial march. There used to be a decent opera singer in the house too, but I haven’t heard him since before the pandemic, so I’m guessing this was his second home. During the first lockdown there was a trumpet player in the street too. They at least play Jazz around here, because there is a Jazz festival every year under normal circumstances.
If my Dad was still around, I'd ask him how to go about designing a rotary system like that. He was an engineer. He'd most likely have that figured out in 10 or so minutes :D And, then he'd go and build it :D Then I'd go ask my cousin John to build all the electronics. He's an electrical and electronics engineer :D I'd get them to build one for you :D I can, in principle, see how you can build one but I don't have the mechanical knowledge or skills to even begin to build one!!! Or, have the necessary tools. Simple stuff isn't hard but when you get into turning metal on lathes and such, that's getting into different territory. Hahaha!!! Sounds like beer hall music :P :P Oktoberfest in Spain :D Sounds like you had a lot of musically gifted neighbours!!!! They should've put on a concert for the locals. Just so long they didn't bring out the schnapps and lederhosen :D :P A Jazz festival would spice things up :D Maybe you could slip a note under 'Mr Recorder's" door and ask him to vary his play list :D
Same difficulties with the engineering problems on my side. I just don’t have the tools to make anything more complex than a 3D printer body and no space for these tools either. One day I would definitely like to build something like the TAS, but I’d need vastly improved equipment for that! They actually tried to do a communal marching band thing here in January, because they have that every year for 24h. They were so out of tune and time it was real bad 😆 kept it up for 20 minutes before giving up. I was glad, we normally leave town when they have it on properly, there is no sleeping that night, they are just too loud!
Ektachrome is pretty neutral, it doesnt render well the green color, from my old experience. We mainly used it in art reproduction with 4x5 sheets in the 90's
Sounds about right. I find it a tad blue and other people have confirmed that impression. I quite like it though. Not the kind of thing I’d take into the forest though, it feels a little too cold for that purpose.
@@LillySchwartz I like Cinestill 400D and Portra 160. I dont know yet for forests, I had some good results with Portra. I have to learn C41 dev for my 4x5 sheets
