There is an interesting article on Kodak's website on the production and cinematography on the movie The Lighthouse. It was shot entirely on Eastman Double-X 5222 with a custom cyan filter, emulating the orthochromatic look which caused the sky to blow out and the wrinkles in the actors faces to darken. Great video btw 🙂
A little panchromatic during this pandemic. The root "pan" means all, so all colors of the visible spectrum, and a disease that had spread to all populations
Your videos always make me smile. That seems simple and cliche, but I mean it. There's always some point in your videos where I find myself grinning at the screen, and this time it was tossing the can of Coors. Stay sane out there.
Hey Jason, nice video as usual! Also, my 6x7 has the same issue where it wants to cut off the last frame. The trick is to load the start line a bit early, like have the start arrow maybe an inch before the dot (might need some trial and error to get it perfect)
I was shooting this 20 years ago, before they went under. It was repackaged Fomapan at a higher price. Already had Fomapan and Arista-branded Fomapan, didn’t need a 3rd.
Looks like a fun trip! I'd have been scared resting my camera on the cliff edge though. I am so clumbsy, I'd be sure to kncok it off like a fool! I used BP once, 2 rolls in 120. Results were OK; a bif flat for my liking even at EI800, but the dam film rolls up like a curly whirly making it so fiddly to scan. So I've not used it since. I wasn't sufficiently blown away by the look to work hard on the scanning so I have not used it again.
Totally agree with the peel apart end of film! So much nicer than the licky thing... Too bad Fuji removed it from the Acros 100 II! Oh, and that Bergger is totally a film to try ;-) Thank you!
another masterpiece of a video. your deadpan delivery is so great, 7:00 had me rollin. thanks for giving us something to laugh about during this time. cheers and be safe. give Baxter pets for me plz.
"151 and play with fireworks", that made me laugh. I haven't heard of 151 since the 1970's and my R&R trip from Vieques to the Bacardi factory in Puerto Rico.
The thing I love most about black and white film is that almost every one on the market has the same 2 lines (or variants of them) for describing the images: "Very fine grain" and "wide latitude". Seriously, almost everything on the market says something like that. haha
my 6x7 has had the same spacing issues, turns out that it was my fault, i pushed the advance lever too fast, you're supposed to cock the advance lever slow and steady, thats what did the trick for me, the spacing is now even between the shots 🤗
Pancro 400 is not available in South Africa 🇿🇦 I waited over a year to get from B&H, and eventually found some at Fotoimpex, Berlin. Apparently stocks were low globally in 2018/9. Glad to see you shot some.
I own the 90mm lens. I was told in an earlier video not to talk to you if I don’t own the 105... here I am dog. In all seriousness- thanks for showing this stock, been wanting to try it. Peace from Bakersfield
for everyone interested in orthocromatic film and hasnt heared the news yet: they recently made a movie on bw 35mm orthocromatic film called "the lighthouse" ... the look ist incredible
It wasn't made on orthochromatic film, it was shot on double-x which is pancromatic. They used a special color filter to achieve the orthochromatic look
New to your channel...enjoyed the banter parts. I dont know if u find this film tends to curl quite a bit when drying (not as bad as acros) which makes for difficultly in scanning..that is why I stick to Ilford HP5 or even Ultrafine 400. Pancro 400 is great in 4x5 processed in PMK Pyro, try that combo and u may become a Pyro-maniac. It is sad that Bergger stopped their 200 film which I only was able to shot a box before they stopped... but wonderful. Good Luck and keep the faith
Maybe a stop under and a red filter. I usually shoot Tri-X very contrasty but maybe I’ll grab a few rolls of this to mix things up. Got nothing but time these dayzzz.
It was good to see how the Bergger film actually renders without throwing my own money at it to test. I am not sure about this super flat look. Some of the shots have no contrast at all, as if the developer was faulty or exhausted. It would be great to see a follow up video with a +2 push and see if that helps, as you said. Out of the box it looks disappointing to me. HP5+ is a safe bet even though it too renders somewhat flat. ADDENDUM: Just saw this film reviewed on Analog Insights' channel and their images look luscious from this same film. Perhaps something went wrong with the exposures or developing in your tests. Can't write it off as a bad film yet if it is user error. Maybe you need to test and review it again It would be nice to see a review of the Ultrafine Xtreme films on your channel. Both the 100 and the 400 ISO versions.

Awesome as always.
that final motion/sequence/thingy - damn!
grainydays on another rainy day while in lockdown makes it a greater day
Love your videos. You have all the enthusiasm of a New Jersey construction foreman. That means a lot to me.
my compassion and love has been completely obliterated by those impeccable abs of yours... thank you father jason
Genuinely the most therapeutic channel on youtube.
all those photographs are like.. kinda , really great and stuff ...i was pleasantly blown away
Your videos always make me smile. That seems simple and cliche, but I mean it. There's always some point in your videos where I find myself grinning at the screen, and this time it was tossing the can of Coors. Stay sane out there.
Thank you for a brief moment of self-isolation sunshine. Great location and I envy the experience. Looking forward to the next one.
I'm liking these shots. Just wow.
Unexpected fat mom joke made me lol. Thank you for your service.
Sit back relax and forget for 10 mins that the apocalypse is going on outside
Lol 11 months ago we were so joking
We had no idea
500,000
@@jackbrittton 800,000 now
Great humor. Thanks for the review!
Grainydays = Cutest thing on RUclips.
Pancro400 is currently my fav b&w film
I bought a roll of this film out of curiosity. Am even more excited to go and shoot some now!
The shot with guys on the ridge....primo!
Jason the only thing keeping us sane in quarantine
Im liking your style, Subscribed.
The desert looks so awesome. I want to go one day.......
Love the photos of the hikers on the ridge. Reminds me of the Badlands in SD.
The Iceland video is single handily getting me though what is bound to be a 4 month quarantine, thank you.
Been looking forward to some more uploads from you! Your humour fits so well in these bleak times. Hope you're staying safe and shooting lots!
*holy shit*
That campsite was unreal
Absolutely wonderful images. What a great trip.
Nice shots. I might try that film. I’ve only shot black and white once using ILFORD HP5 and loved it. Also, sweet hazmat suit lol.
such beautiful B&W film! Thank you for this review, I'm sold to try this one out.
Love it, just love it
loving the sarcastic remarks.... great review! Hope you review Svema or Orwo films next
Pancro sounds like an old medicine for the pancreas lol, but I dig it!
panchromatic...
"The Desert Hipsters" I see a movie in the future.
The legend's back

I'll try it out and report back!
And he never did
@@grainydaysss dissapointing… much like your photos
I was shooting this 20 years ago, before they went under. It was repackaged Fomapan at a higher price. Already had Fomapan and Arista-branded Fomapan, didn’t need a 3rd.
Fantastic. Came for the photography, stayed for your joie de vivre 🙂
I had two videos to watch, this one and the newest one by Willem. Came her for the shitty content that I never know why it makes me happy honestly.
This whole thing made me so happy 👌🏽 Nice work 🤙🏽😊

I fucking love your sense of humour
Breaking bad x grainydays
Not sure if anyone has mentioned BUT you look like Eli Tomac the supercross champ... great vids
Pretty sweet lookin' film bud
But what is life if we can’t make out with park benches??!
hey it's as hard for me to stop, as it is for you
That out to is perfect
It's been hard to come by some Pancro 400. I do enjoy shooting the film!
Jason saving me from my quarantine boredom.
Looking forward to more wasted film stock with Jason!!!
Good Stuff! Thanks for the vid on this! I just picked up a roll of this and I'm looking forward to shooting it. Be well, Benjamin
I didn't expect the jokes, this is what I needed!

i need to test this film !
big fan of the kodak tent @5:29
I call it a quarantini - TIMELESS
such a good video, thank you! 😇
Legit watching this in my room in quarantine at 2:30am
my 6x7 has had the same spacing issues, turns out that it was my fault, i pushed the advance lever too fast, you're supposed to cock the advance lever slow and steady, thats what did the trick for me, the spacing is now even between the shots 🤗
that effect at the end thought :O
Mathis pyt insane!

What would I do without Grainydays videos...
you've definitely become my fav film channel, sorry george
when this thing is over, you should come up to Vancouver.

I'm upset there wasn't a Breaking Bad reference with that suit on. Hah. Great video!
Oof! That first shot is a BANGER!!🔥
00:01 how can you start us off with such a banger? I wasn't ready for it
"a few months." You fucking jinxed us.
you're the best fr
I'm actually watching this at 4am during a lockdown haha How prescient of you Jason! Haha

*grain intensifies*
151 and fireworks. Man knows his audience.
You’re literally talking to me quarantined watching this in my room at 4 AM
Fear and Loathing in Quarantine
UV and IR changed positions now? Woaaaah... far out man.
Seeing the footage flipped horizontally makes me wish Pentax made a right hand grip.
I really hate that Baxter is missing from your last videos.
Am I right that we need a tutorial on how he did the zoom on the final shot?
Also, pancro is my favorite night film, you should definitely give it a try
Maybe a stop under and a red filter. I usually shoot Tri-X very contrasty but maybe I’ll grab a few rolls of this to mix things up. Got nothing but time these dayzzz.
Bring back the green tent
youre a walmart brand ryan gosling that loves cameras and i love it
1:22 Jason: "anyone watching this at 4 am quarantined in your room"
me : watching this at 3.15 am in my room even though I have to go to work tomorrow
I get drunk watching the parallax effect at the end.
man your scanner is 4K quality. it shows every grain of the film!
That suit on the intro is like straight out from Breaking Bad.
