I said burst mode but I meant bulb which most of you know what it is. Sorry for that.

I had a Yasicamat 124G, which I used alongside a Pentax Spotmatic, as I worked my way through college as a public relations photographer for the college (and the university I attended later). My colleagues preferred to be on the sidelines of sports events with their fast 35mm cameras, but my joy was photographing theatre play dress rehearsals and orchestra concerts, with their controlled, dramatic lighting. All the photography was black and white (color was still a bit of a novelty in those days). I would push Kodak Tri-X to ASA (now ISO) 1600 and develop it in Diafine. The prints from those larger negatves held deep, richly-detailed shadows and smooth, creamy tones overall, with lovely highlights. (Yes, "creamy," as you emphasized in this video.) Visually, these photos were absolutely "delicious"!
I think you will love the Yashicamat 124G that you are waiting for. It has a faster shutter (1/500) as well as a shutter cocking mechanism that prevents inadvertent double exposure. It will also take 220 film for twice as many exposures (if anyone still makes it).
Thank you for this video! It brought back some fond memories.
Nice video! I loved the "(digital) pollution" comment🙂. Both Rolleicord and Yashicaflex cameras has many variations. The Rolleicord IV (4) model you have is generally considered one of the best models--even better than the later V (5) series cameras. There are Yashicaflex cameras with double-exposure prevention mechanism--like your Rolleicord IV--and sharper 4-element Yashinon lenses as well as 1/500 top shutter speed.
Jean-Francois, thank you for another fun and exciting view of 120 film photography. I started on a 35mm Yashica camera in the 1980's. I did not pursue my hobby until about 20 years later when digital photography became affordable. I have recently switched back to film.
I recently purchased a Rolleicord 4 on Mercari for about $100 USD. It was untested but I took a chance. Luckily, it was operational. I discovered your "how to load" video here on RUclips and was off to the races. I went ahead and ordered a Yashica Mat EM from eBay for about the same price and am waiting for it to arrive any minute. I purchased a 35mm adapter for the sole purpose of testing the camera. I do not want to waste my 120 film.
My next decision is to buy the Ars Imago 120 film adapter, but first things first.
All the best to you and thanks!
I'm impressed by the amount of detail the old cameras can resolve. Impressive for 60 year old cameras.
Well it’s about the film and lens and your ability in the darkroom
Definable 120 has way more details than 35mm that’s one thing I love about it
Very nice, and her smile 😅👍📸
Very nice video. Those are impressive cameras. Thank you. RS. Canada
It‘ s not „Burst Mode“. B stands for „Bulb“
OH did I say burst ahaha OOPS, yes indeed bulb...
That beauty mark is a roller scratch on your negatives.
Really good video and I'm glad to see some photos used in the comparison. Last summer I was really lucky and got a working Rolleicord for $100., and on Saturday of this week I bought a Yashicaflex S for $150. The Rollei was a bit rough but the Yashicaflex is almost mint. I've got some Rollei black & white negatives and this week I'm planning to shoot with the Yashicaflex and make a similar comparison.
If your gas are similar to mine, you will stumble upon a yashica mat 124g too ahhaha I ended up retiring the yashicaflex although in good condition because I never once got 12 shots out of it. Only 8-9 each time. Probably my bad cause it doesn’t have lock or any type of protection against accidental shots. But the mat and the rolleicord I always get all 12.
Flocking the inside of the shiny interior of the Yashicamat and using a lens hood will bring the quality close to the Rolleicord.
Very well done. I enjoyed your style of presentation ❤️👍
Great video. Thank you for posting. I wonder if you would seek to purchase a shutter soft release button for your Rolleicord it makes a difference for decreasing any unwanted shake at the moment of taking a photo. I find that holding the Rolleicord steady up to my eye with the top of the camera in direct contact with my eye socket helps to minimize any twist shake. Cheers from Ontario
Actually I did get one, I should start using it
Love the video. Subbed! 👍👍🔥
;) GOOD POINT ABOUT THE HARD DRIVE's ...
really thank u from south korea
Nice images. I really liked them. Interesting that the purple line from the Rolleicord only happens on some pictures and not all of them.
And it never happened again!!!
That machine is a spinning wheel. So that beauty mark on the rollei, was that just on a couple pics from that roll? I'm worried about your camera! Was it perhaps a film glitch? Curious. Love the shots, I think they are so beautiful, even the ones you think were not sharp enough were so pretty. I am so in love with film. I am 55, film isn't new to me, but I did go digital when it became good. My next purchase may be a 16mm Bolex film camera!! I love it.
It hasn’t happened since only that once. Some say it was the film.
Just so you know, the “beauty mark” is a scanner error due to some dust/dirt on the top part of your scanner. You probably just need to clean your scanner glass and that shouldn’t happen!
That's odd, I always blow it and clean it between each scan, and the ones from my other camera which I scanned at the same time didn't do that... hmm thanks for the tip though I sure doesn'T hurt to clean it
Oddly enough, I like the yashica better
well it did take nice photos indeed, I retired it cause of all the missed shots
@@3sixty2degres I just recently got one and am dying to go out and use it
Bonne vidéo, bien instructive !
(La ligne mauve verticale est accompagnée d'une ligne verte, comme des couleurs d'aberrations chromatiques finalement... Avez-vous élucidé le mystère en fin de compte?)
-Jaquie,
de Montréal aussi !
Hmm le film avait une ligne dedans selon quelques personnes qui développent souvent.
I think the photos by Rolleicord are a bit greener?
Possible
What causes the blurry issue of pictures on the Rolleicord you think?
Probably the focusing glass, I replaces it.
@@3sixty2degres I see. The focusing screen. Btw, I like your photography style. 😎
Possibly back focusing and the lens may not be coated.
Fantastic video👍, just bought the Yashicaflex bcos of it!
You said "Burst Mode." No. The shutter setting is "Bulb." Bulb means when the shutter release is pressed the shutter stays open until you take your hand off the release. Some of these cameras you could lock the shutter release while it is on bulb or you could use a locking cable release. Bulb is just one exposure. Burst mode is a modern term. Burst mode is used in modern digital cameras where you have several exposures made in quick succession. It has nothing to do with bulb. Bulb is also used in modern digital cameras besides burst capture.
Whoever is new to film photography be careful about many of these You Tube videos. The people that may be producing these videos are either new to photography themselves or just have not learned enough yet to speak with any kind of authority, but some are very good out there too. Be careful.
Yes I know as the comments below I noticed it only after online that I said burst, after watching it a few days later. I should correct it or try to type something over it using the yt tools. That way I won’t get the same comment over and over.
