I find that shooting Hp5 at dusk with the lens cap still on yields some amazing shadow tones, absolutely excellent blacks in the final image.
you should try developing kodak aerochrome in rodinal 🤤
Crack the lens connection and get some sick light leaks in there too 👩🍳
@@bradbennett1420 What if I took the lens off entirely? Imagine how cool the light leak from that would look
@@harper.suxbier pretty sure that’s where rainbows come from
whats a lens cap?
The editing in your videos is so decent. All the sound effects, pops and cuts to the beat. They don't go unnoticed.
Way beyond decent. The video is art in and of itself.

To be fair, I vaguely remember him mentioning he started in video production or editing and then transitioned to photography, so makes sense
Omg the way you nonchalantly described the reason you don’t get up for morning made me feel so dumb; I absolutely love that you’re just brazenly yourself. I’ve made a lot more business this year with my digital portrait business because of you. You’ve really taught me a lot about what I want to see in my own art. You’re a gem dude
Came for the daily flaming hot chugs. Stayed for Baxter

I've had some great results with Portra 800 at golden hour. The added grit and contrast over 400 really gives the image more character in my opinion, and it does tend to shift a bit brown/yellow as well which is lovely for that time. Mid-day I love some c200 and hp5. Nighttime I bring out my X-T4 because I can't be bothered to carry a tripod haha
Very helpful! Even for an old dog…

Alex Burke recommends a Tiffen 812 for shooting Ektachrome and I totally agree. It really helps balance the color and makes the scene true to life. Also, he recommends metering at ISO80 (or 50 with the 812 filter) and I find that really helps bring out the most of the film stock. If you want more tips he has an entire blog post about metering and exposing E100.
Your channel makes me so happy. I went to film school on the cusp between film and digital video, and so your lessons about "what film stock when" and lighting and all of it is just wonderful. I'm so damned happy to see that film is coming back into fashion. Heavenly!
SCAM!!
I think I could make an entire photobook out of images taken purely on Ektachrome in blue hour light. It’s too good
An added dimension to your choice of film stock is how you're going to process it. I've had great results pushing Tmax400 +2 stops as well as pulling Fuji400H -2 stops. Sometimes I'll Push/pull a film just to see what it does. It's like the photography equivalent of my favorite childhood summer game, "will it burn?" Ironically, that also involved lens: a magnifying glass.
Also for choosing between different black and white filmstocks you can look up the type of grain they have (traditional or tabular) and the effect each type of grain has on the final image
Been binging all your videos waiting for a new one and here it is
Smooth delivery of something I’ve been asking myself without going broke too quickly. Thanks man
The message to Kodak is Jason has an endless amount of patience, and will not stop his campaign.
I'm a big fan of Fuji's old C200 for golden hour shots. The smooth lighting in combination with Fuji greens is a look that I really love

Ektar at night is so nice. Ferrania P30 is great for sunny scenes, too.
I love your sense of humor
This is the first video of yours I’ve watched and this shit is funny as hell and really helpful. Thank you so much for this
This is such a good video thanks man! So cool to hear your insights into which film stocks when as they kinda line up well with my choices (especially living in a cold dark rainy place 90% of the year)
My boy jason straight up killing himself just so we can have Aerochrome back
A true hero of the people.
I like how Jason assumes all of us finish our rolls of film within a day, that shit is expensive, every picture needs to be at the very least a banger that stands the test of time. The ideal scenario aside from that is a picture that r/analog will like
Keep it up we'll get that aerochrome soon enough
Love the dark humor. Oh and the film information was great too. Subscribed.
I shoot mostly expired film. My go to BW is Kodak Plus-X and for Color I really love the look of expired Gold/Color Plus, but mostly I just shoot whatever is in the fridge.
💪Kodak Gold for everything💪
I'm almost always on slow film. A lot of Velvia 50, Pan F Plus 50, Silberra Color 50. I almost exclusively shoot during the day on a 50mm lens and I love the contrast and look of the slow film, and I always have enough light to shoot handheld.
This vid is amazing, very well made Jason :)
I got some very nice shots with Ektar 100 while in the desert, came out just as I wanted color wise!
Didn't think this would be so helpful! Thanks.
My go-to film stock is Placebochrome 200. It doesn't take very good photos, but it's a lot cheaper, and you still feel like you were there.
You really got me into googleing this. Cheers mate
I like how you were able to slide that in there...
Solid recommendations on film stock.
Thanks!
omg I love this video, I just started so I didn’t understand like 40% of what you said but this is so useful!!!! Thank you!
Excellent video once again. Thank you so much
My go to for midday and bright sun is CineStill 50D. It is just so clean and I just love the colours it produces.
What you think of my video? Feel free to check out my series on contax T2
for best results with aerochrome and lomochrome purple, shoot during the brightest summer days in full power, mid-day sunlight.
Ultramax, Gold and Superia are my go to colour stocks, when they’re all available… Ilford HP5 as well, pushing 2 stops is amazing
Saw you on the news!! Love vintage cams!
For Nightsshots, I love velvia 50 (if you can get it). Also shooting redscale at night gives insane results, especially if you shoot it in the city. I have only tried Lomography’s offering on 120, but the results were spectacular.
Just watched you on NBC news. Good job!
Fomapan 400 is definitely a look in rain and fog. The price is pretty attractive at least.
I like shooting mine a stop overexposed.
The word on the street is that the new Fujifilm Fujicolor 200 film is rebranded Kodak Gold 200
I got so sick of finding myself passing by photos I wanted to take for the sake of preserving my film, I bought a digital and it's kind of amazing how freeing it is
Uh... That might be the best film/ camera video on youtube. Ever. Thanks dude.
The 🐐. Major inspiration to my film journey
As someone living on Scotland's west coast, HP5 pushed a stop or two does work well. I can confirm. It passes the rain check.
I am trying to stick with Kentmere 100 now since its affordable but still has fine enough grain to look good. Fomapan 100 for 120. However I tried Ektacrome 100 once and was completely blown away by the results compared to the Fuji 400 iso film I shot. I have a few comparison pictures and the Fuji was hopeless compared to the Ektachrome so looks like I will be using that for special occasions that need color now.
lol idk how many attempts it took you to do the opening scene but its amazing, and I don't know how you kept a straight face!
I’ve been chugging flaming hot Mountain Dew in solidarity with you and now my urine is the consistency of cool bacon grease - please help.
Have you hit the stage where you go temporarily blind yet?
@@grainydaysss not yet but I have started to hear the voices.
HP5 +2 stops is also my go-to, I mostly shoot jazz and streets at night. I initially chose Tri-X over HP5 because it looked more contrasty and less flat at box speed, but pushed to 1600, it got too black and white for my taste, like a lot of detail was lost. It took me a long time to try pushing HP5, but the result was exactly what I wanted. I've also had good results with Kentmere Pan, and having an ND filter on hand makes ISO 1600 usable in any situation.
During the day I take whatever colour is available, which isn't much! I got three rolls of Ultramax abroad this summer, I should have gotten more of that, it's probably my favourite so far.
Just saw your segment on NBC nightly News. Thank you!!!!
I started to use Washi A for mid day shooting since its super sharp and high contrast. Its a black and white 12iso 35mm film that gives 120 level of sharpness.
i live where its common to be foggy during autumn. Redscale film is such an obvious choice, that i completly missed. Thanks for the suggestion!
fantastic video man, gonna try and find me some fuji industrial!
I wish you would make a podcast man 😂 I’ll never get enough of grainydays
I just shot 9 rolls of random expired films from the 90s and 00s in Paris and Sorrento, now I'm doubting what time of day I shot them in.
That aerochrome photo with the duck is transcendental
Highly entertaining and informative, thanks from Australia
Thank you!!!
I shot my first roll of Velvia 100 recently, and am currently cutting through my first roll of Velvia 50. I don't have the most amazing shots on these rolls, but regardless of that I'm still excited to see what I've got on them. I also shot my first roll of Portra 800, really it was perfect weather for these.
We had bright sunny days where I polished off that roll of Velvia 100, then the colors started changing and we got less light, which was perfect for Portra 800, and now we've got a lot of light again, and I've got a tri-pod, which makes shooting Velvia 50 a lot easier. I look forward to the results of all of these once I get the money to have them developed.
I've picked up today a developed roll of Velvia 100 and the colours are simply amazing. Unfortunately Velvia is both extremely expensive and difficult to find, so I don't know when I'll be able to shoot another roll.
@@LucaPasini2 I'm excited to see what they'll look like in person when I get my positives developed.
I like the water proof Fuji disposable because they are easier to find than any film stock.
Nowadays, it is just Fomapan 100/200 for everything. And if I want color, Lomo CN100 or the stock I hate but cant stop buying because of how cheap it is, Fuji Eterna 500T +85B. Budget is kind of tight these days.
Came for the info stayed for the subtle sense of humor 👌
Lomo 800 is actually pretty decent at night too. If you don't like the halation look of Cinestill 800T and Portra 800 is a bit rich for your blood, its a great option to reach for that is actually available (sometimes even in stores, if you have a cool film photography store or at least a camera shop that stocks film nearby), unlike Candido, Dubble etc. which you usually have to order and wait on
I have now default to hp5 and gold 200 for everything. Love the look,
Portra 160 or ektar 100 on occasion.
He can't keep getting away with making banger after banger
Thank you for keeping it going, chug on
I hope Kodak brings Aerochrome back because our boy will have big glutes from all the clenching. Keep clenching boy!

I’m a basic Portra 400 bitch, at least in my point and shoot. I like to use it when hanging out with friends or for party photos (she writes, not having gone to a party this year). I prefer the way skin tones look in portra compared to gold, Color plus, or ultra max and the 400 iso is a good compromise as it works for lower lighting indoor settings and outdoor shots. AGFA 100 is my go-to black and white film because it’s cheap, reliable and the only film that is easily purchasable in store without breaking the bank. With current film and developing costs it’s cheaper for me to buy Silbersalz35 than to buy Kodak gold and have it developed, so I’m planning on ordering a 4 pack once I have a trip planed.
I use to love TriX in D76 it might boost your spirits!
Thanks for mentioning Ireland ...now to try out some HP5 🌧
I would shoot Kodak color infrared film with a Wratten Number 15, it gave me more color saturation than their recommended Wratten 13. I wish Kodak would bring color infrared film back. I like your idea of pushing HP5 two stops to add contrast and the yellow filter. I knew a photographer who used to use a 81EF during the golden hour,. Everything was really gold.
Idk how long before aerochrome is back
Pro400H for nighttime is awesome, beautiful colours, enough dynamic range and low reciprocity failure ( you don’t have to stand there for half an hour per photo)
for midday harsh sunlight a street candy mnt 100 works very well, its got a lot of contrast as well as a nice rough grain that definitely prefers city scapes.

In Stuttgart, Germany there is this lab called Silbersalz. I think Karin Majoka did a video on them...They also produce a Silbersalz T version for night time similar to Cinestill. I'm waiting on my scans right now and are pretty excited on what's to come. If my composition and metering is not total shit.
So good!🎞
Genuinely great video. Ur amazing
I clicked the bell so I get notified next time you chug. I’ll be chugging with you in solidarity. Kodak, you know how to stop this
I've gotta try Ektachrome at blue hour, also a yellow filter, nice
We really need that aerochrome back
Kodak is gonna be charged with negligence in this man’s death
Recently I've shot places that would require me to be outside and inside with only one camera on me so I shot Porta 800, Lomography 800 and pushed HP5. I do love slide film so I will reach for that if I stay outside during the day.
A solid video! I just wanted to recommend shooting older AGFA 35mm and higher film because you get color and quality even Fuji and Kodak do not have, plus the Rollei and some other, better reliables are from the Agfa-Gevaert factory in Belgium.
Hey Jason I just saw you on a NBC Nightly news program talking about the Big film comeback (James Brown sound). Good work by an embassador.
I'd love to see what you can do with Fuji Superia 400, because it's relatively affordable and easy to get at the moment. I've been hoarding it up and need some inspiration. Thanks for another great video!
Other than the signature Fuji green tones when shooting foliage it doesn't really do anything special. Its latitude passable for most settings, but not great. The grain texture is nice though. You could probably try pushing it to 800/1600 for fun but the colours tend to shift very unpleasantly when pushing.
I shot a ton of it when visiting Vancouver, my best results were from shooting box speed on overcast days with lots of greenery in the scene.
I just bought my first film camera(Canon AE-1) and am still trying to figure out what film to shoot first! I'm really excited to try out the HP5 B&W. I still have a little time to decide, since I'm in the process of alowing changing my light seals and getting a 50mm. Thank you for the help!
the holy flamin' hot chug saved my day
Great video and super informative...even if you don't think so yourself
Did I just see you on the nightly news, OMG. Your famous!
Come down to Auckland, New Zealand, we've got 50-ish volcanoes and you can climb up nearly all of them for some great views :)
My approach to film is simple. I see something different on social media and say look, it’s shiny and interesting. Then I buy a bunch and either love it or regret my mistake. Next payday I repeat this process.
if you want rain and fog -> come visit us in St.John's, NL lol. Dreary weather 90% of the time. Never really bothered to try shooting B&W around here though. Downtown is vibrant and I love a good storm ocean blue, so I usually op for colour regardless of the weather.
Fuji pro400h pushed to 800 and then developed as standard - gives a gritty look whilst still producing nice colours for woodland areas ( especially when it’s raining or grey )

One approach I use is go by the subject. Plants and flowers after rains look great In fujic200. I love to shoot old temples in portra 400 which gives great flow to ancient walls in sun.
Black and white fomapan 400 is great indoors in contrasty condition while trix400 is great outdoors with its inherent high contrast.
I've been pushing HP5 +2 since December and haven't looked back. Ill use an ND8 filter during the day, cause that's all I have.
really nice pictures
Another awesome exploration. I don't put that much thought into selection, especially on the finer points that you covered. I tend to like a lot of different things, so whatever results from whichever stock tend to satisfy me.
I grew up on Kodachrome and generally prefer vibrant colors with sharp contrast. I always got along well with slide film. Shot a bunch of Fuji slide as well. Love the blues in Ektachrome. I do enjoy grainy B&W, as I see the grain as an enhancement of the abstraction.
I have a variety of stuff in the refrigerator and stocks I have not yet tried but want to. I will probably just select a couple at random and just go out when the urge strikes and make an adventure of it. But you have inspired me to think a bit more about it...

East Tennessee day time scenery for me is a Fujicolor 200 or 400 job. If the light is great, and the vistas vast and there's opportunity, break out the Ektar 100 or grab the Portra 160. Always love Ilford Hp5+ or XP Super for Black & White street photography. Need to try some TMax.
"It just is not funny any more."
Yes it is. 😆
if you wanna get kodak color plus in la, there is a small place in studio city that sells them. Harry's Camera and Video. I've been able to grab them just last week.
Ahaaaa new roadtrip video in the future let's FUCKING go
