I got one the original as a gift and it is super has the flash and is in a sturdy case - has light leaks but seals are kaput and I have removed them and have replacements on order from Ebay ! My advise is to get a camera strap unfortunately it's a generic and hard to get - I got one and it is super as camera is slippy to hold ! Its a bit of an engineering marvel ! waiting for those seal and have rolls of Kodak Portra lined up !

I smoke weed, I do burn money.😢. I like my Canon A1

Of course, the damned square can be cropped to your favorite rectangle. When I look at the ground glass I see a vertical rectangle and a horizontal rectangle. The best part about the Hasselblad is that you don't have to turn the thing on its side to change orientation.

great video. superb location, very tactile, loved the music, and that you could hear the camera winding after each shot.

Thor's hammer.

I personally prefer the 645 1000s with a PDS prism. Just gives me the fizz like a camera should. These later version Mamiyas tend to encroach into the world of plasticky DSLRs we all have had to experience. Nothing like a late 70's made 645 1000s.

Yes my camera

Awesome! Love the 5d classic. Great video, more please ❤️

Wow - thank you for sharing the beauty of Croatia with us. Photos were beautiful and the video was super interesting. I've been contemplating the 35 1.4 for my 5D classic and your images certainly encourage me in that direction 😍

As someone who has owned the Mamiyas in 645, RB67 and the older Bronica S2a, I recently picked up an SQ-A and I have to say I absolutely can tell a quality difference but more so towards the Bronica. The viewfinder is brighter, the components all work flawlessly, even the focusing glass can be removed in the field to clean from BOTH sides not just the top or to install a newer or different type. The lenses alone feel like they focus much better than anything else I've owned and that's even compared to my Pentax 67 system too.

Nice to see someplace you don't usually see on other photo channels. Great job. I picked up a mint Canon 5d and 5dii this winter, so looking forward to shoot this summer. Love Kyle's channel too.

I enjoyed this a lot. I’m still shooting the 5D and enjoy it so much. What lens were you using for these please? Subbed too.

Very very beautiful video, beautiful images and now I want to visit Croatia. 🇭🇷 ciao from 🇮🇹 by the way I’ve pressed the bell!

Great video, really enjoyed it, great photos and beautiful storytelling. Keep going my friend, your channel is worth growing!

That was a very enjoyable video, thank you! Now I want to buy a 5D Classic and hit the road 😉

For someone who says he's not used to the square format, you took some great photos!

日本語へようこそ。時々拷問だが、素晴らしい言語だな。漢字頑張ってね！

superb man. Really amazing.

Amazing video man.

Hello, I have seen the videos. The videos are so informative and you are uploading content regularly. But I noticed the viewers, Likes and subscribers are not growing. Because your channel isn't optimized and video SEO scores are too low. I also noticed that you have no video backlinks. Please fix all the problems and upload the videos. Without SEO and optimization you can't get result so early.

Great content. Really appreciate it.

1000 times more interesting than any video about shooting on route 66. Keep up the great work Alex! Also...5Dc forever!

I loved using EFKE film and still have a few rolls left I need to use. Greetings from California.

Mamiya RB67 is a great alternative to Large Format 4x5. The RB67 is easier to set up, load with film, option for a prism finder, 10 shots per roll and color shots are cheaper than 4x5. The only advantage of 4x5 is the larger format with tilts and swings. The RB67 is 6x7 which is the same ratio as 4x5 sheet film.

During the video, I remembered many stories I've collected in my memories! Great story you did. Fantastic work, Alex!

We rode our bikes here together 15ish years ago :-)

A bit of chuckle, a bit of fun-facts and as we would call it 'knedla u grlu' :) such a underrated part of Croatia

When mom says we have Route 66 at home. :D

Beautiful video Alex, I really do think you are underrated and just need one little push from the algorithm gods so you get all the views your content deserves. you put so much effort in each video and really deserve thousands of views! Keep it up!

Uživancija za pogledati! Još da si imao vremena za lulu nakon pastrve... :)

That was a beautiful message there dear Alexander. Next time make same video but get yourself another RB67...I LOVED watching you struggle and complain about that beast.😂 Also, your cooking makes me hungry.😉😊❤️

Thank you for sharing, very touching and well recorded - I too like to shoot from the heart, currently shooting NZ rail, to see what comes of it, best wishes, hope to see more.

Laki, opet odličan video i priča! #TOPSHIT

Uživali smo u videu Katia i ja. Pozdrav!

Holy baby poops, Batman! You're really very terrific at making otherwise boring instructional videos (which are also camera reviews) entertaining and fun to watch! Yay for you! Yay for us! .... Oh, and the music is freaking awesome. I'll check and see if you credited the musicians. I'm sure you did, but .... *edit* Okay, I didn't see the band's name in the show notes my wonderful dude. So what gives, eh? Who are they?

Great videos my man! Square format ain't easy but it's actually very interesting when shooting with wide angles (40/50mm) and tele (250), compositions are just going trough it effordlessly. Gotta admire the Planar though!

Very good pictures: I am interested on buying a RB67 but I have heard this model has a lot of mechanical troubles so you must take it to repair frecuently , is it true? does it worth it? thx

First of all, very nice video! But where do the bright spots come from in some of your photos, for example at 0:40?

A question about lighting Alex :) Not sure how "versed " you are into it, but seeing you also started quite recently and seems to do a good job for your lighting here maybe you have some good tips :) Im currently only using windowlight shooting in my kitchen hehe. So nothing fancy. And while that works ok daytime and mostly the warmer part of the year the wintertime is pretty limited here in Sweden as im sure you know :P I own a lot of flashes and have some nice Apurture Dome softboxes with bowen mount etc. But have like 1 smaller led light, so thinking about either buying a "spotlight" or Godox light for the softboxes i own already( but taking up a lot of space and a hassle to pakc up and down all the time ), or maybe buy a Neewer Ring light and maybe some smaller RGB led for the background. What would you recommend starting out with :)? /regards Martin.

Watched your video and ordered one a few minutes after, thank you sir.

Hey man! Great video. I don't know how you can be so comfortable to shoot that much in public. For me is hard to go outside alone with the tripod, set the camera, walk, shoot, take care of everything. Your talent on doing this is huge :) Thank you for your inspiration! (The sound that camera produce is so pleasing to listen to :D )

The new x100vi piqued my interest, the larger sensor mitigates the fixed focal lens with the ability to crop in, it's stabilized for low light and video. And it supports heif if I want to save space and skip shooting raw. All of these are where my current x-t30 falls short. I don't shoot any video with my x-t30, the low light even with the f2 lenses is not the best in handheld situations, and I don't have any time to edit raw (even if I do shoot jpg+raw). For family pictures and documenting life, it seems like a no-brainer. On the other hand, with my x-t30 the most magical shots I've made were with the x35 f2, and I think it's the right balance of separation and it's easy to frame the shot, albeit it's too tight a lot of the times.

Frende get some people in those frames!

Great vid! Finally someone addressed the issue of travel videos. Take you phone and document the trip with few clips. That will be enough to spark the memories in 10-20years. In fact, the footage should be bad and incomplete. It will just trigger the conversation.

Does this mean we have to go to Portugal again? 😌😍

Amazinggg videooo, and Zrileeee i pufnicaaaa kovrdžavaaaa u krilu... 😍😍😍 !! Also, I feel your pain, Peter, Matti & Chris - we love you, but THANKS FOR RUINING OUR TRAVELS! 🙈🙈🙈 Also, 'do plan, a little'. Such great advice, as we can easily fall into the abyss of creating professional scripts for our vacation! P.S. Kick that Ronin all the way! (:

Spot on!

Love how relaxed you've become! Great video! I totally agree about everything from my experience :D

1:12 Don't worry. Only the "skin" of these cameras is made of plastic (polycarbonate)😊. The internal frame is still made of aluminium die cast. Polycarbonate skins do not age gracefully; they tend to become shiny and start looking cheap, but they are very very strong material, and definitely not a "downgrade".

Great images ❤👍🏻 and best camera, so it is❗️
