Pinhole Photography Adventures Episode 2 - Kodak TMAX 100

- My second episode on shooting a Pinhole Camera.
This episode I went to Bembridge Lifeboat Station on the Isle of Wight at low tide.
I used a roll of Kodak TMAX 100 Film.
Losing light fast I found myself making longer exposures than anticipated which in itself is a good lesson.
I wasn't sure how my exposure calculations were going to come out especially adding time for reciprocity failure but after developing the negatives I was pleasantly surprised. None were under exposed!
I developed the TMAX Film in XTOL 1:1 for 10 minutes agitating normally.
The scans you see within the video were DSLR scans of the Negative. The scans were enhanced in Lightroom, as you do, just tweaking exposure, contrast and sharpness.
The prints at the end of the video were made in my darkroom. The image size is 10x10 inch on 16x12 Kentmere Lustre Paper.
Developed in Ilford Multigrade.

Thanks a bunch for being so kind on my magazine! I'm glad you enjoyed going through it. I am really digging these pinhole videos. Makes me want to attempt pinhole/long exposures.
I think I liked the reflected pier, from the right side, best! I am so glad I found your channel!
it's very hard not to like this guy...especially his honest way of doing things infront of the camera and giving out prints to people
Thanks
Shoot film like a boss... more like shoot pinhole like a boss, what a cracking set mate!
Excellent ! You are producing some wonderful "Fine Art" prints with the Pin Hole Camera; Love your Vlog and the approach to photography :-)
Fantastic results. Thumbs up.
Fantastic video and stunning results. You are finding your feet with the pinhole and seeing your progress is really inspiring. I will have to take my pinhole camera for a walk now.
The book you were showing was called a Zine. Great video's. Enjoy your channel, and I learn a lot.
Thanks, Mark
Loving the prints you've making with the 6x6. Pinhole photography and your channel have really sparked my creativity this year and helped me in developing and starting to do my own darkroom printing.
Great Prints Roger.
Great Video glad you are enjoying playing with a pinhole Camera nice photos to
Very cool. Inspirational.
You're very welcome Roger! Thanks again for your darkroom tour video! Hope you get good use out of the case! Beautiful photos as well! Really digging your pinhole work! Definitely makes me want to get one and try it! Maybe this fall.
Another great video! I just got my first pinhole camera too and watching your experience is much like mine, though my scenery isn’t quite as lovely as yours. Thanks for sharing the learning and inspiration Roger! 👍
Really nice photos !!!
I see there are four dislikes on this video, what kind of person would dislike this video, what is not to like. strange people out there. You take great photos and make beautiful prints.
Cheers Anna. Lots of reasons why. Can't be adults though, can it? Lol
Yeah!
We did the "Pin Hole" camera thing in 6th grade!
Then again for Boy Scouts.
It still astounds me what beauty prints we could get!
I never did it at school. It's good fun
great, your the only pinhole photographer who demonstrates the details of your shots.
exposure, angle, metering and exposure times.... thank you !!!
that is priceless information for amateurs like myself.
I have built 3 pinhole cameras this past winter and have yet to take them out because I don't know what exposure times I am to use with these crazy f/258, f/216, f/206.
Now after seeing your tutorial I have some ideas and especially some confidence.
Now let's see your other videos... thanks mate,,,, Bo
My pleasure! Go on my website I have a post on exposing for pinhole.
You've taken a great serie of pinhole photos, I like them all. The prints look gorgeous too.
Thank you Fabrizio!
Nice video, nice shots as well.
Fantastic Vlog Roger. Loving the pinhole camera your getting fabulous shots from it. Tip I saw before for tripods in sand is put and old cd under each leg.
I have tried all sorts in the past. Including badboys 2, the long good Friday and terminator 😂
I was thinking more Rick Ashley or Taylor Swift lol
Amazing use of Pinhole sets. Nice prints!
Beautiful shots.
the prints are awesome Roger. I use the frame lines on my Ondu to frame the shot, but I also carry a door peep hole viewer which is very similar field of view to a 30mm 6x6 camera just to get an idea of composition, particularly with respect to height of the camera and how close I get to subject (normally much closer than you expect). Very happy you're pinholing :)
Absolutely love the prints, wonderful 🙂
Beautiful work. Those came out great!
Some excellent images - well done!!
Some beautiful images! Don’t fall on your a@#$ on the rocks! Lol. We’re still enjoying your videos! I love T-Max 100, though the numbers on the backing paper are not easy to see through the little red window on my pinhole camera.
There is no warning to frame 1. It comes after the work KODAK. Which I nearly missed frame 1
Inspiring stuff. Just picked up a pinhole camera and excited to give it a go. Thanks for the video.
Your stuff is genius! Really good, keep it up.
Hooray Roger !! you are going to learn to 'Spot' your prints which I learnt in 1951 ----
Because you said Peter. 👍
Great video, excellent
Cheers Keith.
Nice work, prints look amazing
Some really nice prints there !
I have a 4X5 pinhole camera, I must take it out for a few shots.
Wonderful video again! You got a few keepers there.
Very cool my film brother
Great pinhole shots in this video! I'm looking at a Zero 2000 camera thinking I might give it a go! Spotting prints with the inks is a bit of an art in itself! Pretty simple once you get use to it if you have a steady hand! :) Always have a scrap of the paper your prints on to get the tone right!
Cracking images there pall!
The pier photos are lovely. Spotting photos is easier on FB paper, the fibres make the ink invisible. Build up tiny dots, never strokes. My OCDemon says it's reciprociTEE not TREE.
Very Nice Prints Roger! The weather looks great there. Man I've been wanting to go shoot but these triple digit weather keeping me indoors. It got up to 117 degrees yesterday.Have a wonderful weekend and happy shooting!
That's hot!
@@ShootFilmLikeaBoss it's so hot, I saw a cop chasing someone and they were both walking. Lol
@@b_wtangible_moments ha ha
They're bloody lovely mate, brilliant job, love the prints. A bit tempted to order one of those pinhole cameras now seeing what you've managed to do with it.
Thanks Droidster. Give it a go. It's very enjoyable.
@@ShootFilmLikeaBoss agree with @droidster888 these photos are fantastic. It is blowing my mind that with such a camera you get prints like this...a bloody wood pinhole camera 🤯🤯 Would you say that once you've tried a pinhole camera, you've tried them all or do they differ?
Man...... You are getting your money's worth out of this camera :-) Loving's it bud :-)
I like this video quite a lot and it inspired me to do more of my own.
I do have a couple of tips, when don't I, but you might try shooting a couple of rolls of b&w, but pre-flash each frame by 10% of the meter suggestion.
Use a thin translucent filter, or an untextured piece of a thin styrofoam plate, no the usual cup used by many for normal cameras for both flashing and turning a camera reflective meter into an incidental meter.
This should sensitize the frame to the shadows details.
Expose at metered exposure, without including the time of pre-exposure.
Secondly, IIRC, you have a Hasselblad "V".
There is a Hasselblad pinhole lens made by "Lochblende" with a Bay 60 filter/lens shade front, Hasselblad mount.
Mine is f250 and travels quite small in a slightly larger filter sized box, so it's simply always there.
Sizes of fstops seem to run from 16 to 1000 so you can have a choice of range in your bag.
Thirdly, your brush selection is too large in brush styles, materials.
What you want is Windsor and Newton regular sized Series 7, sizes 000, 00, 0, 1, 2, 3. brushes in Sable.
Because you'll be using inks, the brushes will build up pigment build up over time, but mild soap, no detergent, which strips oils out of the hairs and luke-warm water will clean out a lot of this when cleaning up.
Keep brushes damp while working, never leave them soaking in ink or rinse water, point up hairs after final wash.
They should give years of good service
I look forward to your future videos and, Cheers!
Eli
Thanks for the tips Eli. I have those brushes now :)
Bloody awesome
I just received my Ondu pinhole camera. I can't wait to shoot a roll of film through it.
I'm number one , that's 3 for me! really a great way to take photographs, I wish i knew where i could get one .
by one i meant the pinhole camera
You are a very good looking guy (can’t have much trouble with the ladies :-) . You should try out self portraiture at some point.
How about self portraiture with a pinhole? It would pose some unique challenges with keeping still/getting enough light.
Nice to see your daughter on the production team her wonderful on air comment at the end is often repeated by many of us while watching your videos:) I like the wooden sea defense picture best but all excellent shots, your a inspiration to a lot of people with these wonderful videos you make Roger. Is George OK ? not seen him in a while.
Ha ha, yes George is well thanks Harry. I'll feature him in the next video 🤩
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Amazing photos, they actually look really sharp!!! I recommend perhaps trying out an app for your phone that simulates the field of view and crop of any canera format to help compose your shots with the pinhole?
Cheers James
How do you like the TMAX 100 compared to Delta 100? I’ve been shooting some Delta 100 and have really liked it but I like more contrast and TMAX 100 seems to be a little punchier. Thanks for all the videos, they really inspire me to get out shooting and to get in the darkroom.
It's okay. I've not compared it to delta bit have used both many times. Both give low contrast which is a good rock to stand on in the darkroom.
I'm really impressed about the quality of your images and the wonderful tones.
Thanks Flavio.
How did you use that meter app to determine exposure? Measure the darkest spot, then brightest spot and set for half way between? I love Tmax 100, it's my #1 film. Oh, how did you develop the Tmax? ID11, DDX? They looked spot on.
Hello, I think I've watched all of your videos. And I ordered a pinhole camera after I stumbled upon your channel. Great content. Thanks for that. I have a question. How do you calculate your reciprocity failure. I have an app but I tried your tmax100 with your pinhole equavalent durations on my app. They are a bit off. I get 80secs when you expose for 70 secs etc. I would be greatful if you could give a tip. All your photos look amazing and I want to dont want to waste negatives because of my idiocy. Many thanks in advance.
I'll write a blog up on my website as I get asked this a lot. Email me and I'll come back to you.
I'm loving your pinhole photography Roger, does your pinhole camera have frame lines on it to help you compose the shot?
No, it's literally point and hope!
@@ShootFilmLikeaBoss you've done a great job with your composition then Roger.
I thought this episode was really informative you covered all the bases about pinhole photography and the photos are stunning . I’ve been looking for a pinhole for a while. Which camera is the one you have?
Thanks. It's called a Lerouge 66.
how do you figur out your field of view? left to right and up and down??
If it feels right I guess. It's hit and miss.
