Yoooo! I was laughing throughout the hole video until it got sad lol. I can totally relate to the winter depression and now we got to deal with the virus situation too so... Not easy to stay positive. All I can say is that it helps me to keep me busy with anything. Even stuff I don't like. Just to not give myself the chance to feel shitty. But sometimes you can't escape it. RUclips videos can make this worse or better depending who you watch though. So, back to the video: Totally agree with the film loading issue. One good reason why I will never sell my CLE. Can't wait to see some M6 user reactions here haha.
I thought my winter depression came to an end as it was a heatwave last week. But Slap in the face from British weather and it started snowing in fucking April
I lived in Michigan for four years and the only reason I didn't have serious seasonal affective disorder or just depression is that I was waaay too busy to notice. And social media was not around back then to bum me out. Now, I am thankful everyday for the California sun that I grew up in and currently live under. Even during the winter there will be days bright and warm days to enjoy... well, if it wasn't for the pandemic. Always enjoy your vids. As others have stated. Try to be busy. Sleep well. Go out for walks when you can. Inactivity always makes moods worse.
I think it’s totally valid to feel down and depressed, I having gone through a couple years of it know it quite well, make sure you get nice deep sleep, eat well, spend times with the ones you love and talk to a therapist
Thank you, now I will forever have the urge to eat tic tacs every time I focus and use the base plate to put my shoes on. And seriously, thanks for being honest and vulnerable on here - I totally feel you. winter in combination with the pandemic is even worse than the loading system of the M6. (And the enjoyment of course is mutual, I wait patiently for every new video of yours!)
Best video I’ve seen in a long while. Thank you for being so real and genuine. This is the kind of stuff I love seeing on RUclips. Keep up the great work, keep doing what you love, and making the kinds of videos that you want to make!
Same thing happened to me once. A whole roll of "perfectly composed frames" lost. Now I always double check if the rewind knob is turning. Though I'll have to admit that actually it's really easy to load a Leica. Just takes some time to get used to and you have to trust your Leica, it can smell if you're afraid and it will punish you.
a brave video. congratulations for you being you and for having the courage to be you. it sounds trite, but things will look up. keep shooting, and keep looking for inspiration. You probably don't even realise that you inspired a whole of people today. bravo, sir.
Thank you for this video Jim. You are always very inspirational to help me to find my way as a photographer. I also really appreciate your transparency and your sarcasm (not too veiled :D)
Also, yeah I had an leica MDa, same loading system (rapid) and i loaded it in a few different ways recommended to me....and 2-3 times....the film popped out, right off the reel....and no was I bummed a few frames in, halfway through when I noticed the film wasn't catching. At least with the m3 and even the old barnacks, the reel you take out to feed the leader into a tiny bit, that locks it in, and guarantees no slipping, really nice. And yeah, the Canon p rules. Swingin door loading, preeetttyyy cool.
Cheer up Jim! I have to live vicariously through your Canon P photography as my "P" has gone to the CLA hospital. It's going to take a long while but we're hoping for a full and complete recovery. Thanks for the video!...:)
I also messed up the first time loading an M6, it almost seems like a rite of passage for the leica system. Found your channel today, hope you keep to put out content!
That Jason impression was on point 😂 it’s an amazing camera for sure and a joy to use. When I rented one I found zone focusing was much easier (when the light allows).
Also loading that camera with film feels more like putting a gun back together or something instead of loading film. Probably why some people get a kick out of it!
I would suggest trying an later m3. the m3 is on another level compaired to the m6. The M3 rangefinder patch is huge compared to the m6ttl .85 that I have. The m3 also does not have the quick load system that the m4-mp cameras have. I have miss loaded my m6ttl a few times. but I have never done that with my m3 or the m2. those people say the spool on the m3/m2 is fiddly Id say its no less fiddly than any other camera that the back opens! Keep taking photos! your work looks awesome! thanks for sharing
I completely agree regarding Leica. I enjoy a couple of Canon VT and VT Deluxe rangefinders with 21mm and 25 mm Voigtlander lenses along with a Canon 50mm f1.8 ltm. Enjoy your Canon Populaire.
Are you sure you loaded the that first roll incorrectly? Or is it possible that you didn't remove the lens cap? I made that mistake a few times when first shooting on a rangefinder. Either way, this is my first time visiting your channel and I loved this video.
this was such an entertaining video! love your humour. i absolutely love the look of leica cameras but i just know that loading the film would be a pain for me as well 😩 been loving my bessa r2a which gets the exact same quality
There are a lot of RUclipsrs who try very hard to be funny, and they bomb every time. You, my good man, are a natural comedian. Haven't been this entertained in a while. Thank you for sharing. Question: when you originally purchased your Canon P, did it need any calibrating? I've heard the rangefinder can be knocked out of alignment quite easily, and the viewfinder may need adjustment depending on your vision. I'm not 20/20. I'm assuming you are. I'm not sure if this makes sense to you. I'm new to RFs, so any advice from you (or anyone watching this video) about the Canon P would be greatly appreciated. Cheers! 😉
I completely relate to your winter sadness / depression. We used to live in Iowa and Minnesota and good lord the winters almost killed me. Grey and slushy and looooong. We now live in the mountains and get way more snow, but we get SUN and blue skies in between winter storms and life is worth living again. Have you tried one of those lights for people with SAD (seasonal affective disorder)? Might be worth a look. And I’m of course now diving into Grainydays and Camera Conspiracy, so thanks for that!
Great video man! Your impression of Jason from grainydays is so on point! Also I shoot videos using my Canon P and I get a lot of enjoyment in knowing that I can get a similar rangefinder experience to Leica without spending a frankly ridiculous amount of money.
Thank you for the lovely video especially for the comparison with the Grainydayz - it was so funny to see some similarities in intonation and in the type of jokes you're both running. About the first and even second roll - as you some of the influences said - you have to be experienced with the gear you use. And a few rolls is a too small number to decide something or to make a review like half of the RUclipsrs already do. But they are not guilty, the watchers are too I don't want to use the word "stupid" but probably most of people who ready to get some decision about something specific by the only one time use, they are :-) So my opinion - if you still have this camera (i don't use the name of it, it may be also Holga - the most simple, but still need some skills, understanding, and habit) just use it some month-two-three, I mean use - the only one camera and after this period I will happy to hear from you the "review" or just the decision about. Btw, because of your channels, I'm looking for Canon P for myself on eBay. Hope to find something, not many in good condition and for a nice price, but sure I will find one.
Haha. I have too many cameras. Was hoping you would say Leica not THAT great and stick with Canon P. So was glad to hear some negatives about the M6. Was laughing about your Grainy Days voice while reading to your daughter. I like reading to my six year old daughter and giving random characters a cockneyd old lady voice. haha. Will try the Grainy Day Guy monotone next. Currently loving Fuji GW690.
It's strange because watching the movie after you sneeze too (seriously!!!) I sneezed twice and since I'm home alone, I sneeze straight into the air :D Yawning is contagious ... This Leica is a cool thing like diamonds or a Smeg fridge :) Everyone wants to have ;) But I chose Canon SLR cameras... At least no one will attack me on the street hehe ;) Good thoughts. Good luck!
If you want to open a beer with your camera, the bottom plate of a M camera would be perfect for it. It's like a Multi-Tool, german engineering baby 🍺.
Your not incompetent never put your self down the more experienced you are the luckier you will be shoot shoot shoot and most of all enjoy a d that’s your mates camera so bloody look after it 😎😎😎
You're a funny dude! I've been watching Camera Conspiracies for a couple years, and I just discovered Grainy Days. Both funny af. I'm feeling this vid tho. I'm gonna get a Canon P since I cant sell my kidneys to get a M6. 😁 Hope you feel better. Subbed... ✌🏾🚀
very good jason imitation 😂 only the dirty jokes are missing. Your first roll is also only slightly underexposed. 😀 Honestly, you remind me with your calm manner of "three blind men and an elephant" with less "hold that tought". My Leica M6 is actually the only camera I have trouble loading. However, it doesn't matter as long as you have fun with it. stay healthy!
Hello there o/ M4 was my dream camera and finally after years i got it. You know what was my 1st roll of film? Totally blank XD I have watchd a lot of vidio bacck b4 i bought mine but finally i just did it wrong. Is Leica a good camera hmmmm it is but the best camera ever for film is Nikon F6 and somedey i will get it too ;3
OMG! Laugh out loud funny. Love your videos. I totally get the depression issue, not so funny. Meds can really change your psychological landscape, just a thought. A
I laughed a lot along your video! I have no clue why I could not leave the video when you started talking about reading books to your daughter. Don't read like that to her, do it so she enjoys it, not you haha she never says a word because its like listening to a transportation band... nevertheless, great comedy! (very sensible opinion on the Leica brand value) I have never had trouble with the loading of the camera, I find it so easy, maybe because I come from the FED2 ...
@@quietamericanreed I actually enjoy using a knob to advance the film, don't know what it is about it. What is painful on the FED is winding the film back when you're done, that part I don't like.
I m not going to lie but I actually find the out of focus photos to be better sometimes to just look at but this is personal preference I have no real reason to justify my position lol
man I totally feel you with the seasonal depression! I've shot maybe three or four frames in the last month. hard to find the motivation to do anything, let alone shoot. also valid point about loading the m6, loading the m2 got so annoying to me that I ended up selling it. well, loading and rewinding. both took way longer than was worth having the "leica experience" otherwise, imo. anyway great video as always jim, and solid grainydays impression :)
- funny thought - where can i find friends who would lend me their leica :D haha wow talking about MarkusPix - feel he's not mentioned enough just doing his thing and making his own art. also miss the piano tunes :(
Are you related to Camera Conspiracies. You look and sound just like him. I have the Canon P, it's perfect. I've used an M6, It's not anything that would significantly increase my enjoyment of shooting or would result in better images. But I understand that people want to wear a Rolex, no judgement, respect other's values.
Chin up Jim. Spring is on the way. Grainy Jason is very droll but appears to have a bit of a streetlamp fixation. Kasey ( camera conspiracies) is a hoot. You maybe need to buy a dog and get into juicing vegetables if you want to compete with those guys. I like your videos because of your calmness and unassuming personality. Don’t change anything!
I always look when I take the first couple frames and advance the film. You should see the rewind knob turning if the film is loaded correctly. as for loading, watch THIS video: ruclips.net/video/Fcy86A-wj-o/видео.html
I think Leica stuck with the bottom loader out of pride and an appeal to people’s pretentiousness, i.e., they were too proud to be accused of copying Canon, and they probably thought that snobby folk could be fooled into believing that only peasants load film the common sense way. The fact is, that bottom-loading system may have been fine at a time when they were figuring things out, but it was just a plain stupid decision to have kept it.
Leicas are actually easy to load if you just follow the fine manual. Yes, face it, 100 % your own fault! And I'm saying this to myself while standing in front of mirror as I have been there too with my first Leica. Just stop making assumptions of how it should work, forget what you are doing with a swing-open-back camera and follow the manual and it's easier, faster and more elegant to load than any other system. I also enjoy a Canon VT and my SLRs but not because of the loading.
My opinion... you should go to the psychologist, because to make a video. to criticize only... the mounting of the film on an M6,, is really from people who did not seem what they have... logical if you compare it with a canon camera of recent times that does not use film, it will be more comfortable... bad your video

Whats a good affordable 35mm lens to use with the canon P system?
I just bought a 28mm Jupiter pancake for €40 but basically anything you can find with an M39 mount try it out
I refuse to believe he was high while making this video and my brain’s fighting me.
I super enjoyed the sneeze.
I always keep my Leica handy when I get my shoes on. The best shoehorn is the one you have with you.
