Exactly what i thought! This made me want to go read photography literature and later shoot. Not research prices of gear that I will never be able to afford.
And I am sure that your future video will be rich in both technical and (can I say...) non-technical knowledge. Kudos for you, Anne, and everyone who is involved in this channel! Thanks for your amazing contents!
I love how you ditch the gear talk and jump straight to an art history perspective. Really takes the focus off kit and places it on technique and style.
I was a massive fan of the brad Pitt shoot. All too often you see lifestyle portraits ruined by the same Instagram "I'm free" poses, so seeing Pitt contorting around in the sand was kinda refreshing. Sure convey emotion but at the end of the day, this was a fashion shoot, not straight up portraiture. Massive props to Ryan for not conforming to the same boring BS editorial that everyone else does.
i know i'm late to the party but Pitt's shoot was great! far removed from the normal style shoots. Also those shoots are super high pressure so for McGinley to pull off something original in that situation is really impressive. Also this guy complains about Beyonce being a prop when he walks around with a model as a prop for his video. She's literally standing in the background waiting for him to shoot while he's espousing about how shit mcGinley is. The hypocrisy!!! This video STINKS!!!
@@feralmode i am even later, but you are totally right. mayybe Ian should stop blabbering bullshit the whole time and focus on taking pictures. He got a beautiful model and almost 98,99% of the pictures he took of her are pure crap - that´s what i call talent. And by the way the Pitt shoot was awesome, that bullshit you pulled in this video is what it is bullshit. 8minutes wasted of my life
'Eternal students' Is a great way of putting it - I make videos on tech and I feel like I discover something new every time. Awesome video as usual Ian and co!
Thanks so much for your thoughtful videos. It's so needed in a world of gear based channels. They remind me of the early art of photography videos where Ted focused on photographers. That you get out in the field and attempt to replicate them makes it even better.. Don't stop!
You. Are. The. Man. Love your talent and intellect. and your knowledge of photography. And your philosophical approach to photography. You have surpassed your previous youtube colleagues. The student has become the master.
I like the way you present your videos with a brief history of photographers with their examples and especially the use of negative film and the type of roll you use as well as the camera used in your scenes taken. In a simple and direct way. Thank you for sharing the visual creation that is important. Warm Regards. Federico F. Moy.
thanks Ian! You have exposed me to photographers I had no idea about. As I have learnt more about photography I go back and watch your old work and pick up new things.
I'm glad your videos are always substantial. RUclips is honestly filled with camera reviews and arguments about technicality and what not that lacks content. Your videos actually talk about Photography. Keep up the good work.
You know what Ian, I really like your videos. I'm so tired of the lazy vlog concept that it feels refreshing to see something with higher production quality. You've got a good team there, keep it up.
Ian, this series is brilliant! It is educational, inspiring, and just fun to watch. I am keen of the way you describe things and make us "amateur photographers" find tunnels of inspiration. Dude, keep this up!
Ryan Peña Kai is the Jeremy Clarkson of photography, he cares about the tech and the specs. Ian is more about the thought process and meaning behind photography.
Really enjoyed this video Ian. Your insight into the theory of taking a good photo is rare in this age when everyone is only focusing on the practical/ technical aspects (equipment) of the same. Your presenting style is refreshing too, laid back and good humoured without ever coming across as being pretentious. Keep up the good work and looking forward to your next video.
Ian, I love what you are doing here ! Every photographer should bookmark your video for reference and inspiration. Your photo shoot alone is very exceptional, but with your narrative, added images, noted film types, it's over the top - superlative bringing the highest or a very high degree of a quality ! Please keep shooting, filming and commenting. many thanks to you !! best, John Jungklaus - New York..
I love how this isn't about what camera is the best and what you should use. It's more about inspiration and going out to shoot. I think everybody is tired about hearing about the best dslr or mirrorless camera. This is just about going out and shooting nice pics. The analog part is just a happy accident. It's also nice that the host can actually take good images. Great job, keep it up.
The video was so good. I have to disagree about portraits always being about the person in the frame - it does not have to be. Sometimes, they're simply there to convey something about something other than themselves. Of course, if you're making photos of Brad Pitt, they should be about him, but it doesn't have to be that way just because it's a portrait.
Truly inspirational, educational...REPENTANT!!! You just made me 反省 for watching endless gear-related WIDEOS but you know and we all know that they are so sweet and addicting, but in the end leave you with emptiness...Your videos, on the other hand, are like good quality gourmet meal that's actually healthy and taste AWESOME!!! Please continue making videos like these that are thought-provoking, insightful and most of all, DIFFERENT from all the other RUclipsrs!!
Thanks a lot for giving inspiration along with tips & tricks! These kinds of videos are the once that inspired, are inspiring me to take photos. It's so wonderful how the way I've looked at pictures has changed since before, I now see the beauty in the moment!
Great work, thank you very much. I like the quality. One technical question: Around Timecode 4:00 with the F3 and the Portra 160 - which focal length is it and why does it look like sunshine when the weather is all dizzy and cloudy? Overexposure? I like the photos very much.
Oh man! This video is awesome, I love your pictures and the cultural/educational content of the video itself! You show a great knowledge and your pictures are able to create the right emotions in the viewer (at least for me). Please keep going with this awesome show!
Ian, I really enjoying the editing on these videos! The Porta 160 is great film, I would have liked to seen some Ilford in the mix...the F3 is still a fantastic camera! Jack, VEG
Nicely produced video! My only thing with the topic is photography is such a subjective thing that at some point it's almost impossible to really say something matter of factly. Everything just becomes someone's opinion in the end.
What a great location you have there. Does it get misty predictably during a certain time of the year, like you know it will be that way sometimes during June for instance? In the UK today, Hurricane Ophelia brought over red dust from the Sahara, totally unpredictable. I had my F100 ready loaded with Portra 400, I don't know how that would have affected the slightly orange cast as I regard it as a colder film, but I don't think I got as much as others. I couldn't see the sun through the clouds where I was. Then it went. The abstract iPhone snaps were still nice, even though I had to 'correct' the white balance back to what I _actually_ saw with Lightroom (I forgot to do it in (Camera Plus). Also, do you use medium format? I'm thinking of selling my 500 C/M for a Bronica SQ-A, half the price just as effective. They're the same size and work well as walkabout cameras The Zeiss lenses for Hasselblads really push it money wise, (repairs are super costly too) I didn't realise what I was getting into years back.
While I disagree with a couple of points in the video (I personally really liked the Pitt photos from an editorial point of view), the video was so well presented and produced it would be impossible to not enjoy it :)
I always enjoy the analytic but also very poetic view in photography. I always learn something about me and my photography when i watch your Videos. Please never stop making them. Thank you!
I would love to see more stuff like this where you dissect the work of another photographer and try to re-create their style. Also next time please tell us what lens you're using for each shot along with what camera / film
To be honest, I even think a lot of his non-commercial work you shared in the video comes off as contrived or leaves me emotionally indifferent. Basically, his work is eye-candy. Maybe, unwittingly, he is reflecting our times, where the effect is more important than the affect. For instance, I'm really into classical music and especially the piano repertoire. A lot of today's young pianists have shockingly impressive technical abilities. They play the most technically challenging works as if there's no effort involved at all. The only thing is, many of them lack musicianship, let alone musical profundity. They'll toss off La Campanella like it's child's play and will then perform a Brahms Intermezzo as if they are a child.
The last three pictures at the credits are so good! nice videos. would love to see a series and maybe a bit more serious creative and artistically talking but still its nice :)
I learn new things every time I watch your videos Ian. I like how you teach us about how you change your perspective and broaden up our imagination. Thanks for this wonderful video Ian! :)
Ian. Everyone already praised you enuf, so I don't want to spoil you, hahaha. I just hope everything lines up so that you can continue this for a long time. you deserve to do this for life and be rewarded.
Hey Ian your video content is really great! Please keep up the good work. It's definitely something different from numerous other photography themed videos out there. It's full of knowledge and understanding, in the other words depth which i believe will be hard for others to 'copy' as seen from all other videos being put out these days. Everyone's trying to bite Negative Feedback's style these days without any originality.
The grainy quality gives a certain atmosphere to photo's that works well with the foggy weather. But did you pushed the film? Because there is a lot of grain for the low ISO.
I love Lindbergh. I have a book of his black and white fashion photos of the supermodels in the group photo in this video. He's one of the few fashion photographs I'd be willing to call an artist. Phenomenal stuff, as always, Ian and Anne. This is a great channel and I'm glad to participate in the patreon. I'll try to contribute more when my financial situation improves.
wow thanks I really appreciate your work. Its insightful and opens up a very important and discussion in the art of photography. I have so quetsions to ask myself now. Also your photographs are beautiful:)
lovely
your channel is rich in theory and history and less "tutorial". love it...
Exactly what i thought! This made me want to go read photography literature and later shoot. Not research prices of gear that I will never be able to afford.
Nicko Putra Witjatmoko thanks! Although we try to mix it up a little now and then :b
And I am sure that your future video will be rich in both technical and (can I say...) non-technical knowledge. Kudos for you, Anne, and everyone who is involved in this channel!
Thanks for your amazing contents!
Your videos are annoyingly good. Please keep making them.
Damn Ian, your production quality is one of the best I've ever seen.
Sebastian Mustermann anne works hard on them :D
Watch negative feedback
I love how you ditch the gear talk and jump straight to an art history perspective. Really takes the focus off kit and places it on technique and style.
so everyone that left digitalrev is a beastly talented person
Honestly Kai is killing it with his digital review and you're killing it with the analog stuff
They should bring a "WongRev TV"

you have done it again Ian, great video, I watched the intro over and over.
I really look forward to your videos, keep up the good stuff.
I usually don't leave comments, but man, oh man, that "punch it Chewie" line.... Excellent episode, Ian. You drill down to the core of photography.
I'm glad your videos are always substantial. RUclips is honestly filled with camera reviews and arguments about technicality and what not that lacks content. Your videos actually talk about Photography. Keep up the good work.
You know what Ian, I really like your videos. I'm so tired of the lazy vlog concept that it feels refreshing to see something with higher production quality. You've got a good team there, keep it up.
This was remarkably insightful compared to a lot of things you'd find on RUclips - thanks so much for making this, and don't stop sharing
Great Channel! Glad I saw you in Lok's vlog... Awesome analysis! I hope you make more videos.
"In photography we are all eternal students." Awesome video!
Ian, this series is brilliant! It is educational, inspiring, and just fun to watch. I am keen of the way you describe things and make us "amateur photographers" find tunnels of inspiration. Dude, keep this up!
I'm starting to prefer you more than Kai (no offense). your videos are very informative, entertaining, and funny
Ryan Peña Kai is the Jeremy Clarkson of photography, he cares about the tech and the specs. Ian is more about the thought process and meaning behind photography.
What I love about your videos are, the photos you take are actually good! Also the production is very well done

Great work! Model, pictures, setting and video!
Ian, I love what you are doing here ! Every photographer should bookmark your video for reference and inspiration. Your photo shoot alone is very exceptional, but with your narrative, added images, noted film types, it's over the top - superlative bringing the highest or a very high degree of a quality !

It's also nice that the host can actually take good images. Great job, keep it up.
I like the ideas you are exploring framed by particular photagraphers. It's more interesting than just gear head oriented stuff. Subscribed.
The video was so good. I have to disagree about portraits always being about the person in the frame - it does not have to be. Sometimes, they're simply there to convey something about something other than themselves. Of course, if you're making photos of Brad Pitt, they should be about him, but it doesn't have to be that way just because it's a portrait.
Olof Ljunggren true! I guess I oversimplified it a little in my conclusion.
I love how you are teaching people about the history of photography. Keep up the great content 🤘

Nice shots, Ian! And thanks for all the photo history.
Hi Ian. Really enjoying your videos. You and Lok are my fav DR alumni. Keep it up!
Ian, keep the videos coming. Really good work.
I've been waiting for this episode to show up for several days and now it's here. Enjoy, everybody!
Oh man! This video is awesome, I love your pictures and the cultural/educational content of the video itself! You show a great knowledge and your pictures are able to create the right emotions in the viewer (at least for me).
Please keep going with this awesome show!
Ian, I really enjoying the editing on these videos! The Porta 160 is great film, I would have liked to seen some Ilford in the mix...the F3 is still a fantastic camera! Jack, VEG
you know what, I loved that intro which was awesome ☺
I'm gonna go out and take photos with my F3 now. Amazing videos man!
How have I missed this channel till now?? its awesome!!
Keep snapping!
Finally fun youtube content with a good basis on actual photography theory. Entertaining, engaging and enjoyable. Thanks Ian.
THIS IS AWESOME! I LOVE YOUR INSIGHT AND CUTS BETWEEN HISTORY, ANALYTICS AND THE PRESENT DAY.
Simply brilliant. Fantastic balance between technique, background and analysis. Just beautiful.
Really nices photos!! Is there no post processing at all after developing?
Nicely produced video! My only thing with the topic is photography is such a subjective thing that at some point it's almost impossible to really say something matter of factly. Everything just becomes someone's opinion in the end.

Herregud, vad snygg du är, Sofia!
And great stuff, Ian! Binge-watching :)
While I disagree with a couple of points in the video (I personally really liked the Pitt photos from an editorial point of view), the video was so well presented and produced it would be impossible to not enjoy it :)
Tim Palman I liked a few too, and thanks for appreciating a different opinion!
Loved your work on Analog Rev and love the Digital Darkroom aswell! Good job!
More please. It was wonderful
Absolutely amazing video! Please keep on making them! thanks so much for sharing!
Great video Ian! Very interesting and I love how you focus on what is really important in photography. Keep it up!
Great stuff Ian. Would love to watch more of these type of videos.
How do you scan your negs? The colors are awesome dude! Great work in up the hill
I always enjoy the analytic but also very poetic view in photography. I always learn something about me and my photography when i watch your Videos. Please never stop making them. Thank you!
Great video, Ian! And Sofia is the perfect model for this kind of photos.
Those are really really beautiful photographs. Amazing work Ian
I would love to see more stuff like this where you dissect the work of another photographer and try to re-create their style.
Also next time please tell us what lens you're using for each shot along with what camera / film
Great work, Ian (and crew) 🙌🏼 keep them coming!
"in photography we are all internal students" Can't agree more, well made video mate :-)
Makes me want to go out and shoot! Thanks for the great videos. Can't wait for the next one.
To be honest, I even think a lot of his non-commercial work you shared in the video comes off as contrived or leaves me emotionally indifferent. Basically, his work is eye-candy. Maybe, unwittingly, he is reflecting our times, where the effect is more important than the affect.

I'm of a similar opinion on his work - but he is talented at capturing colours and moods!
The last three pictures at the credits are so good! nice videos. would love to see a series and maybe a bit more serious creative and artistically talking but still its nice :)
Love your videos and photos, man. Looking forward to the next.
Love your videos, love your photos, love your style!!! Congratulations for your work from Italy! ;)
Your stuff always shows me I have a lot more to learn beyond gear and settings.
Looking forward to seeing more of these.
i got so inspired by your video of the AF35ML and this so i got one in mint cond and start taking portraits of my friend with it
Your channel is gold! I really like your presenting style and your photos.
I learn new things every time I watch your videos Ian. I like how you teach us about how you change your perspective and broaden up our imagination. Thanks for this wonderful video Ian! :)
This was great. What lens was used on the F3 ?
Ian. Everyone already praised you enuf, so I don't want to spoil you, hahaha. I just hope everything lines up so that you can continue this for a long time. you deserve to do this for life and be rewarded.
Yo your photos in his style killed it 🌿😱
Hey Ian your video content is really great! Please keep up the good work. It's definitely something different from numerous other photography themed videos out there.

I watched it again Ian and loved it more than the first time, don't stop doing this kind of thing.
I'm loving your work lately! Thanks for the inspiration!
The initial pics are amazing!!
Great imagery and insightful commentary.
lots of great shots in here, Ian - keep it up!
Good Job Ian....like how your still using Nikon F3 with Portra film.
ian, what lens do you use for the nikon f3?
The grainy quality gives a certain atmosphere to photo's that works well with the foggy weather. But did you pushed the film? Because there is a lot of grain for the low ISO.
Stef Hazewinkel my developer has a lot of issues with the rollei film for some reason..
other photography channel show me how to take picture, but you show me how to make ART!! Thank you!!
I love Lindbergh. I have a book of his black and white fashion photos of the supermodels in the group photo in this video. He's one of the few fashion photographs I'd be willing to call an artist.
Phenomenal stuff, as always, Ian and Anne. This is a great channel and I'm glad to participate in the patreon. I'll try to contribute more when my financial situation improves.
Thanks as always for the support from the start!
Those Amazon links aren't working bro.
These are great, I'm glad you decided to do your own thing.
Great shoot and love hearing your perspective on the Brad Pitt shoot. 2 for 1 keep up the good work.!
I'm so glad I just found this channel
The pics could have been so much better as full body portraits in the storm. Loved the theoretical part though :-)
I loved this!!! Makes me want to go out and shoot :) amazing job man
Great video / photography essay!
Ian, your work is awesome! Thanks for great content! Cheers from Berlin
wow thanks I really appreciate your work. Its insightful and opens up a very important and discussion in the art of photography. I have so quetsions to ask myself now. Also your photographs are beautiful:)
Shot at 5:47 is brilliant.
very well done thank you I'll definitely be looking out for more
Excellent video, I really like your style and insight. Keep up the great work!
dude, amazing video! i love this kind of conclusion at the end combined with this wonderful music
Very interesting again. And very well crafted. May I ask: what lenses did you use?
Peter Grey vivitar 28mm f2.8 and distagon 35mm f2!
Thanks a lot.
