Not sure what really happened with the audio on this one, but it was kinda difficult to hear you, especially in the part when you were talking about the coal stove. Was your collar blocking the sound? Loved the video otherwise, and I can't wait to maybe try some of this out!
The first photographic film was made from cellulose nitrate which was replaced by cellulose acetate. Both are highly flammable, especially the nitrate. First that would make magnesium flashes even more worrisome. Second it's something to else to experiment with burning - I'm not sure whether or not the light sensitive silver salts would affect the flame colour.
It's not that bright - Camera "flashes" that used Magnesium *powder* were MUCH more intense. Also, safety glasses. They block UV light which can be emitted by Magnesium. Wasn't even seeing spots in my vision after burning three of those strips required to shoot that segment. :)
Am I the only one that is a bit disappointed when a DPReview TV video pops up but it is not Chris and/or Jordan? Don't get me wrong, I like the other presenters. It is what it is though.
Love this video Don. Didn't see that ending coming either. Thank you, and to DPReview, I appreciate the varied content here. Thank you too.
LOL, almost missed that.
Great video Don....looked like lots of fun for the mad scientist....lol
Playing with fire 🔥 on a photography channel. Happiness level: maximum.
Cool ep 👍🏻
Great stuff. Keep em coming👍🏼
Not sure staring at that magnesium was a good idea.
Agreed. Especially given how bright and small point source the fire is, some permanent eye damage is certainly resulting.
Seems like the kinda guy who spends his days staring at the sun and trying not to squint...

7:32 When you see Chekhov's Laowa Probe Lens.
Can you please provide details of that weird lens you poked into the burning wool?
That would be the Laowa 24mm F/14 Macro Probe lens. I'm finally finding some uses for it! And I didn't set it on fire or melt it, which is a bonus.

Thi is very cool! Thank you, Don, for sharing.
I started my fire by recording a video with the R5
Way too cool! 😊
Did burning the steel wool just trash that probe lens or what?
Probe lens completely intact and no harm done. :)

Loved the video, Don. You're my kinda crazy. ;) ~Mo Devlin
Very funny and interesting.
Christ... You should have been wearing welding goggles for that last bit!
Come on, only 6k views?
Dr Don is my Chem teacher. Dr Doucette is my Medico. Canadian YT'rs making waves LOL
Burning stuff is always fun.
omg loves this ep!
now i want to play with fire too but sadly my wife wont let me haha
@1:45 im just gonna snort this real quick 😤
Am I the only one wondering how he literally stared into a camera flash for a couple seconds without shades or some form of protection?

Flaming Ice Photos???,,,
