As a German I have one nerdy fact for you, Jason. Since your surname is “Kummerfeldt”, there is a tiny village close to Hamburg that is called Kummerfeld. Maybe some of your ancestors came from there.
And again, someone writes something german in the title and here we go. Nice to see, that I am not the only german watching his vid's. I sadly misst Photopia...
As someone who lives in Hamburg it's great to see what you do in a place I know so well. I might be biased but I think it's a photogenic city. Hearing you complain the whole time about having picked the wrong film stock is the cherry on top
It defenitly is, as someone who has been photographing this city with his cousin( who lives there) I still haven't found every little secret photographic corner in the about 4 photo tours I did with him.
It was great meeting you! And thanks for not kicking me out of the photowalk for bringing a *d word* camera. The selfie with spiderman and bigfoot turned out awesome though.
Man I can’t believe the dedication and effort behind this channel. Unbelievable man. I love your videos. Keep it up. Netflix needs to license your coast to coast video because that was insanely good man
Here in the UK we often get the uniformly light skies you mentioned in Copenhagen, an effect that travel writer Bill Bryson likened to living inside Tupperware.
The shot at 23:28 with the repeating pattern, trees, building, and two anonymous subjects could not look more like a painting. Absolutely stunning. It had me pause the video & stare for minutes. As always, wonderful video.
You just keep putting out bangers !! Some of these (especially the ones in Copenhagen on 250D) truly feel like Edward Hopper paintings. Gorgeous compositions, layering, and lighting, serene, lonely, pensive. Never stop !!
Cool that you made a long trip for the chance to pump up film photography! I hope you and Monica had a good time, learned some stuff, and saw some cool photo ops that we didn't get to see. I'm still playing with the film cameras because they just need to get out on occasion. Keep it going... we look for your videos every chance you get to put one out.
Jason shooting the most beautiful photos with the best film available to the world today: - it sucks, looks so ugly Jason shooting whatever this 16:46 is: - oh, yeah, that is the vibe, this is beautiful!
Man i love your videos, it’s one of the few moments i can sit back with a cigar and a glass of wine, whiskey or red hot mountain dew, and slow down and chill. Thanks for everything
About great light in Copenhagen. I think, similar conditions can be noticed in many other places north enough, in case that place's climate provides a bit of clear sky. Recently I moved to Helsinki and was delighted to find out that the sunlight here is so often wonderful, because of the lower sun and clean air.
I was at the Photopia and on the walk with you. It was a really nice time. Ps. Im the crazy Mamiya guy and the binstax we took stands proudly on my desk.
6:48 literally me... i met you, I travelled across Germany for this festival and i fucked up my development. big uuff. and even tho I dont have a picture of us meeting, it was still very nice meeting you and Monica!
Thank you Jason & Monica (and Baxter for letting you guys have the limelight) for a vicariously enjoyed vacation back in Europe! Having just moved back from Berlin several months ago, we are both missing the European city experience. So sick of the heat and the constant driving (traffic) around just to do anything here in the Silicon Valley. Not to mention the crazzy-ASS cost of living now!We miss the biking around the city and the look of the German cityscape. I wanted to attend the Photopia gathering but it was never going to happen. Thanks for helping me to see a bit of it. Very cool! Keep up the awesome content and soul-sharing photography & humor.
Hi from Denmark. Crazy to see Jason/Monica in my country, at a table in Tivoli i ate at with my son. We ended the walk at the black diamond and took some Ilford B/W bangers at the same spot. Small world...
that roll of 250D in the second half is really really good. the colors and compositions in so many shots from that roll remind me of Edward Hopper so much
As someone who has spent some time in California and has recognized some of the places in your videos from having been there myself (e.g. the marina next to the Golden Gate Bridge from your pushed Portra 800 video), seeing you in my native Germany feels odd. But I'm glad you had a good time (except for the train part which was to be expected) while you were here!
I hope you enjoyed the inflatious price-tags on most things in central Copenhagen. If you ever come by Denmark again, I would be glad to give you a tour of the third largest city - Odense. Even though it is village-sized in American comparison, it has some really nice scenery for photography. I have a monotone voice and shoots a lot of film, so at least we have that in common. I also look cool sometimes. Anyways, good to see you got some attention on photopia - I think you should get even more. Btw, we drink more beer than wine, but we have a cultural problem with very high alcohol intake in Denmark, so sometimes the 'brew' doesn't matter - just the amount. sincerely, A Danish nurse anesthetist who loves film.
Hi Jason. Stunning shots you have taken home from Hamburg, Photopia fair an Kopenhagen. The most shots of you looks iconic for me. The composition, the light am the used film stocks made it complete. If you return next time to Hamburg you should visit once more photo spots in Hamburg. I understand that time runs down quickly and you are not able to visit all spots.
As a German I am a bit ashamed that you only had to visit Germany for a few days to realise that the German Train (DB) is shit, although it seems that, luckily, you haven't experienced the worst that's possible, only the normal amount of shit. To be fair, the Hamburger main station is notorios for causing delays at it constantly operates at like 200% capacity it was designed for, but nevertheless. Lots of wishes from a German who has to do long distance travels with train on a weekly basis. I feel your pain. And thanks for your content as always
@@thorstenjaspert9394 totally!! I don't expect my trains to be on time anymore, I always plan with a 30-60 min delay as normal. Of course they are on time when you yourself are late, but that's the ONLY exception!
We weren't there to look through the viewfinder, but the blue cast actually looks really good, even if it's not an accurate color representation... Great video!
spotted myself in your video, new achievement unlocked! ⭐ haha it was so cool meeting you in person at photopia after following you on youtube for quite a while! i was the one with the solar powered camera hehe. thank you for the entertaining vid as always! 😊
Denmark is known for the diffuse light. Look up the "Skagens malerne" (the painters who painted in and around Skagen). Copenhagen is quite nice, I just wouldn't like to live there 😊
Can't believe I'm only now finding out that a) you've been to my hometown and b) there was a photography convention here they already cancelled after 3 years lol
Awesome that you stopped at my hometown of Copenhagen hope you enjoyed the stay love your images from here Lol 18:10 Cafe Boner 😁 wonder if your hotel lift had the sign "I fart" meaning moving in Danish 😁Great video as always fun and entertaining with great images 📸👍
Amazing video as always! As an option to the 500t/800t with no filter situation. Maybe dslr scanning with a warmer whitebalance (actually, colder i think) would help in mimicking the warm filter. Changing the wb with the raw data may be the hack for this.
Good note. Concerning the white balance on 500T, I've never had any issues just setting it by hand in Lightroom in a camera scanned image converted by Grain2pixel. I see slightly more saturated blue tones when I shoot it at 500 iso during the day without 85b filter. I have not noticed a large difference in the converted negative with or without 85b filter Other than that you can set it at 250 and have a pretty warm image. Note that this is all based on a conversion by Grain2pixel, I have no idea how NLP handles it.

Kummerfeldt is such a german surname lol. Apparently Kummer is an old word for an eroded area, and Feldt is an old spelling of Feld (field). Kummer also means sorrow. Talk about destiny
Could someone exolain the point aboit shooting tungsten balanced film below box ISO? Does that cause the aparent colour temperature of the film to increase? It seems like that was what Jason was saying at 3:57.
Cinestill 800t comes closer to daylight balance when shot at 400. He tried to do the same thing with 500T as that's what Cinestill 800t is derived from.
very comfortable editing, i can‘t really explain it but it feels so warm and just nice to look at 💆🏾♂️ oh and on what camera and lens was this video shot on? is it the sony A7 IV 👀
Did you ask for a handcheck and did they do it? Lots of insecurity around travelling with film and I've had good (pretty much anywhere in Europe and the US) and bad (Heathrow) experiences.
another great negative feedback vid. good work george keep it up

"Ich versuche mich zu verarsche, wo ist das Bier" is just an amazing translation. I hope you ended up using it :D

Some grainy photography in Hamburg, I like it😊
This Thanksgiving I am thankful for a fresh and shiny grainydays video,
Next time check out Sankt Pauli neighborhood in Hamburg. Great photo opportunities! :D
Schön mal Film Fotografen hier zu sehen hoch im Norden :)

Great editing on this video. My favorite picture that you took was the one of Monica fixing her hair sitting on the floor. It looks so good. Groovy.

I'm not crying, you are!
Fun to see my neighbourhood through your eyes, great candid by the water towards the end!
Those Edward Hopper's kind of shots are astonishing! Definitely what i've been looking for on my photos
Nice to see you havce been to København in Denmark which is a neighboring country to Sweden where i live.
I'm really loving these longer videos
Grainiy days with Turkey for the HOlidays!!! Happy Thanks Giving to you and Monica!!!
Monica is definitely a keeper ;-)
Super nice Vid Jason! Hamburg is Beautiful
23:20 and 23:25 feels like modern Hoppers! Also, as a Swede seeing a EspressoHouse mug in a GrainyDays video created a severe FoMo.

as im living next to hamburg i still cant belive i missed this 🙈🙈🙈 best episode!!

Hi Jason, great video. Will go to Hamburg to the very same hotel in the Schanzenviertel tomorrow :-)
That zoom-in shot at the end tho... Quality VFX!
Happy Thanksgiving :) thank you for the gift!
How did you transport your film? And did it go through the airport scanners?
This really is some of your best work, Jason :)
Denmark is known for the diffuse light. Look up the "Skagens malerne" (the painters who painted in and around Skagen). Copenhagen is quite nice, I just wouldn't like to live there 😊
Oh man I was not expecting to get a video today 😫❤️❤️❤️
great vlog and atmosphere!
Great job Mr. Jason. No abandoned structures in a wasteland.
Did you keep the Konica lens cap off so people wouldn't snicker ?
Churros in Denmark ??
It's somehow wild seeing Copenhagen where I live from your eyes. Having lived here for 3 years now and the different choice of what to shoot.
Awesome video as always Jason. Just curious, did you use a Hi-8 camera for some of the travel shots? They look dope.
ohhhh noooo you were in hamburg! if i only would have known! :,( Love your stuff man! Keep goin!
Kinda bummed that i not only couldn't make it to Photopia, but I was also in Tivoli that same evening and i totally missed you!
Jason is using my favorite film stock (the 500T) yay!
Visual treat😍😍
Anyone knows which camcorder he used for the footage at 15:50 ?
Damnit, I missed you in Hamburg!!
ohhh this cinematic footsteps' sounds
I for one cant wait for the ultimate showdown between Jason and Peter McKinnon
Can't believe I'm only now finding out that a) you've been to my hometown and b) there was a photography convention here they already cancelled after 3 years lol

For some reason when you shoot 250d a lot of your photos remind me of the look of old 3d renderings out of google sketchup. They look insane.

Great video
Image at 14:10 slapped harder than you gave credit for. I’m not sure what you have against those blueish shadows?
How do you get through airport x-rays with your film? Thanks.
what film scanner do you use?
Sony A7R II as per the infoscreen at about 0:58.
(That's a camera, not a scanner.)
“Sorry the turkey is burnt… I was watching grainydays.”
Jason even gave us the full PAL region experience by recording at 25 FPS.

How is 12:58 not a portfolio shot? It looks like something straight out of a Christopher Nolan movie.
