PRINT YOUR FILM PHOTOS ... darkroom or digital, it doesn't matter

- Printing images is one of the best ways to appreciate your film images. 35mm and esepcially 120 film look fantastic on paper. Digital prints are great, but I also highly recommend you try to get into a darkroom as well. Even better, building a home darkroom is the ultimate convenience. Color or black and white, both are amazing to see in the physical form.

I used to use an Epson ET-2550 ruclips.net/user/postUgkxciSwynMJ7PnUvvx11rewiu-yFBkZTl53 , an early model of the ink tank style. It worked well, but had one nuisance that drove me up the wall; if you didn't put it in high quality print mode you'd get a streak across the page. I'm happy to say I have yet to see this with this printer. The print quality has been fantastic so far, the set up was super easy. All in all I'm very happy with this printer.
👍🏽
Just this last week I had 27 cheap prints made of some of my favorite recent images, and can’t say enough how magical it was to see my work in a physical format. Seeing it on a screen is impressive enough, but seeing it on paper was magical. It gave me that feeling of “WOAH. I made THIS?” and that gave me so much more confidence about the quality of my work and built my desire to keep shooting.
Exactly! It’s a game changer
I really believe film was meant to be enlarged, not scanned. Specially some b&w film that scan terribly but when enlarged it's amazing. Hope this video works as an incentive to bring more people to the darkroom!
Oh, I prefer the greener northern lights image and the one with a more neutral tonality of the "white lines" :)
Thanks for this video, very nice!
No question stills film was designed to be enlarged.
Thank you for this, you are one of the few people showing how to do your own darkroom prints currently. Like your style please keep doing what you're doing...
I def will!
Beautiful stuff! Should be starting my color prints by the end of the week. Been a pleasure to see all your results from what looks like an incredible trip.
Good luck with printing!
I find doing bw printing in the darkroom hard enough, must be a real challenge doing color 🤯
It’s not too much more of a challenge!
is this fuji chrystal archive type II or something else?
Shot at 5:50 is crazy. I'm looking to start developing/printing at home. Shooting a lot more film this year and honestly, it's an expensive hobby. Can you ID/link some (or all) of the equipment you're using?
it def is expensive - i don't have list of my equipment but try the ilford/jobo starter pack
Great to see the final images, see you did end up with some from the trip. I do love the first you shown, the minimalistic one but the dog sled team is my favourite.
Yea got lots of pics during the trip!
Is there any particular reason for developing your prints in the can as opposed to a tray? I suppose the can lets you turn on the lights earlier in the process?
correct. trays would mean total darkness for a very long time, also prolonged exposure to fumes for longer
prints came out good man. i the first print. i like the magenta one better. great work man.
really appreciate it
That 5:45 print is beaut. Love that clean minimalism.
Thanks my guy!
what camera you used to take these pictures , they look beautiful ?
those are all 35mm shots from the canon eos 300v witht he 40mm pancake ($20 camera and $200 lens)
Very cool stuff man. Hopefully I get the space for this in the future 🤞
Hell yea man. A darkroom is a blessing g
Film in my opinion looks better as a physical print as that was and still is the true way to enjoy pictures. Whether you’re shooting consumer films or professional films, prints are the way to go
100%
With scanning, I swear you could shoot most any color film stock, scan it into photoshop and edit it to look like Portra. People literally do this with digital cameras so what the point anymore? I feel like the only way to be a purist is to develop the negatives in the darkroom and then scan the image and edit to match cause otherwise there is nothingness to keep your editing within the parameters of the film itself. Does this make sense?
i don't fully agree. you can def manipulate a lot in photoshop, but each film does actually have it's own characteristics. you can choose to preserve those or ignore them
Super stuff. But please don't tap your negatives with the point of a pair of scissors anymore.... it made me cringe.
The negatives will be ok
Hi! What kind of paper did you use?
fuji crystal archive - luster
Amazing! I'm so glad youtube suggested me this video today. Love your channel.
Thanks for watching!
Just when I thought such a long process for some pictures , and then I see the pictures amazing and the feeling you get after must be something
Precisely! Thank you
What do you use for photo enlargement? My papa left me his old cameras when he passed away and I want to learn how to use them and print my own photos!
i owned an LPL c series enlarger
The dogsled photo is just amazing! Really liked your photos from Sweden :)
Thank you!!
This is so cool! Thank you for the video! Could you please share how much did the darkroom enlarger/magnifier cost for you?🙏
That one was about $250 in ebay
Ballsy to go without music or speaking. But it worked!
Tried something new. Glad it worked
Never thought I'd find ASMR in a dark room printing video 😅 Good stuff 😉
Glad you enjoyed!
I’m v jelly. Can’t get ra4 chemicals nor paper here
Yea it’s tough in many places
Magical ! Great work.
thanks! glad you like it
Can you recommend a company that does quality prints. I was let down by a few different companies lately when it came to print quality and coloring. Thankyou for sharing your knowledge.
check printique, but i dont have lots of experience with that
@@ribsy i appreciate that. I hope to soon be in the darkroom. Nothing comes close I imagine
Love the stripped back edit man, reminded me of being in the darkroom. Well done on capturing the northern lights too!
Thanks! Felt like trying something new
Hard to tell which I like more as well. Was thinking before you showed both that I liked how much magenta was in the print. Nice to have options!
As an aside, glad to see more videos from you printing color. I've got RA-4 supplies sitting in my cart on freestyle right now until I can find a developing tube at a decent price and watching more of this is just getting me more excited to get started.
Good luck with getting your darkroom set up!
Awesome. Loved the silent printing, and some stunning images. The dogs and Aurora were the two for me.
Thanks!! 😀
What camera u using
A few different ones
Awesome pictures
thank you!
Who is this person?
im batman
Great shots man! What film did you use to shot Aurora?
That was portra 800
@@ribsy Thanks! Looks wonderful.
the process, the images, beautiful. keep it up man
Thank you!
Awesome shots, awesome prints. Happy for you!
Thanks mate 😀
Excellent stuff. Great final prints!
Thanks! 🤟🏽
That Northern Lights print is fire!
Thansk!
Keep up the good work. Am into film development I mainly do black and white. Am hoping to get back into it when I move house
Fantastic! Good luck
Prints came out well 🙂
Thanks!!
There is almost NOWHERE in the world that you can get colour lab prints - THAT MATTERS!!!!
What do you mean
@@ribsy
Actual RA-4 prints from negatives.
Most commercial labs don't do color darkroom printing regardless (just scans), and in some countries you can't find RA-4 chemicals in small kits (like 2,5 liters)...
¡Maestro en el darkroom!
Jajaja maestro no
bellissime foto
Gazie mille!
Gorgeous prints bro!

Excellent!
