The escalator shot is sweet, especially when you compare it Metropolis. Had no idea about the anti-halation layer too. Love these videos, keep em coming!

I really enjoy your darkroom videos. I found you because I also have acquired an Intrepid Compact enlarger, due to lack of space (I gave away a lovely LPL C6700). Have you filed the 35mm negative carrier to achieve these distinctive borders in all your prints? I was thinking about that but I may like to acquire a second set of that carrier first, in case I might get tired of the border signature in the future. Looking forward to the next one!

Looks good! 👍🏻

I like the landscape image at 6:40 ❤ enjoy your knowledgeable videos! 💯

Amazing video!!!

Nice Job ! kzbin.info/www/bejne/rn2onYyKYrmGl7M

Really neat darkroom setup. Hope this vid encourages more people to start printing!

Looks neat! Well done!

Hi! Love the pic from Arizona. It reminds me one of those microscopic images. Really nice contrast! Goood job!

I like the lighter version of her face better. All your prints are nice. As far as what I would hang on the wall. Probably the bike one. Did you make or buy that tub attachment for the print washer?

New subscriber here! Loved the portrait in the Baking Pan. Great job dodging the subject. Also liked the photos from Arizona - I'm from Phoenix and have spent a lot of time in Sedona.

Great video!! Always such nice photos😍

awesome video, this was very relaxing! loved that shot of the cyclist. also the dodged print came out great!

Love it! My favorite was the pic from NYC. It is my favorite city and to me feels like it captures the vibe I attribute to it.

this is so so cool

solid video.. for context though, I dont know if I would make a note of cinestill's price per roll as compared to bulk rolling Vision3.. bc even though the end cost is the diff of 10 dollars per roll, with significantly more rolls possible... the upfront costs of bulk loading haven't been accounted for, nor have the time and know how to bulk load... neither are things that can't be overcome, but they are points in the equation not mentioned... I think a better comparison would be something like the film photography project's pre rolled vision3 at $10 a roll... then you're comparing pre packaged rolls, one where the first company has removed the remjet for you and the second is selling it to you with it left on.. and the diff is about $5 per roll.. which again isnt crazy big savings, but for those who love the development process, this is a fun way to get to experiment with the chemicals in a diff way.

damn thats a cool camera

Amazing shots!

Hey Ryan, I have a Robot Royal 24 and was wondering if you could help me clarify something. The rangefinder is accurate but it’s not coupled from infinity to the green f8 marking on the 40mm lens. I was wondering if this is normal or not, as it works fine once you focus closer than the distance the green mark is at.

I've gotten myself a RR 36 about a week ago - thanks so much for your video, it answered a number of questions that I had that I couldn't even get from the user manual. On the topic of using other lenses, I've found that the Robot Royal cameras have a different bayonet than other older Robot cameras. I've read somewhere that Royal series support all Robot lenses, but newer Royal-specific lenses cannot be used on older cameras. Is this your experience? Just looking to get a companion lens to the 40/1.9 I have, but I'm concerned about getting a Robot lens that I will not be able to use. Thanks in advance!

so fucking cool

love! obsessed with zebra shot at 11:19

Amazing!!!!

Nice! Some awesome shots in there - really liked 5:02, 5:20, and 6:31

What iso do you shoot at? I tried to do pre-remove the remjet on 250d and shoot at iso 400 but it seems like underexposed..

please make a tutorial on how you made it at home

Hey! Very nice video and inspiring to try it out for yourself. However I've got some questions! • Since the video is almost half a year old, did you continue to do this or aborted for some reasons? • Also, your attempt shows some blueish light leaks around the sprockets, which are most likely due to the rest light in your closet you could detect with the 409600 ISO video? • How did you dry your film after removal? Simply removing excess water by two finger/a rubber clamp or using a dust and scratch free tissue? How long did you hang your film before getting it out of your closet? • What would you expect how long is the film usable after this procedure? Should it be made freshly or can you contain it in a fridge for half a year? Cinestill 800T gives a 2-year best before warranty. I assume some kind of degredation by this process and am curious if you gained some experience here. Looking super forward to your answer!

Do you have a link to the 400’ daylight bulk loader?

Sodium hydroxide is the stone like thing no powder? That heats up when comes in to the water?

Excellent video!

What camera is shooting at 400k iso ??? 👀👀 Talk about night vision . So very interesting . Bootleg wins in. Alot of those images 👌🏾

curious what tank that is! so tiny

Two observations: (1) Cinestill removes the remjet before reselling Vision 3 film out of marketing necessity - to allow the film to be processed by normal labs running it in C-41 chems. If you are shooting Vision 3 from Kodak and processing it yourself, there is absolutely no need to do this process to remove remjet before shooting. All it does is submit your film to risk if damage during the pre-washing process. It also subjects your film to halation problems which are inherent in Cinestill films. (2) The video comparison show a significant green color shift in the Cinestill/C-41 processed film, which is not there in the "washed" Vision 3/|C-41 film. The green bias is a long-noted problem with the Cinestill film. So, why does it not appear in the washed Vision 3 film also processed in C-41? Historically, I and others have assumed that this is a by-product of cross-processing the film in C-41 rather than ECN-2 chemicals, but the video suggests that there is some other factor at work here. Maybe the Cinestill process to remove remjet leaves some chemical contamination in their film product which adversely reacts with the C-41 chemistry?

Nice video, maybe a recommendation to speed up drying process you could run the film through a salad dryer while it is still on dev reel.

Great video! I have a lot respect for Cinestill as they've popularized the 800t space and also filled a hole that kodak didn't have the capacity for, but calling yours "bootleg" gives them way too much credit for something they weren't the first to do, something they didn't create, and a term they weren't the first to coin.

Very cool comparison. How does your pre-treated bootleg compare to your usually post-exposure treated bootlegs? Do you think there’s any real diff?

Nice, thanks for sharing!

Wow. Great camera! Your video really triggered my gas😂

Damn! This video ist nice. I was wondering if you had any remaining remjet on your Film after drying with the method you shown? I saw a few other videos where the people are saying that there are probably some leftovers on the film and you should wipe over the film to make sure it’s all cleaned off. Much love for your content again🙌

Very nice :) I'd even consider those to have come from the same roll if I didn't know better. I've seen bigger differences between frames on the same roll where all that changed was the shutter speed.

Nice comparison, Cinestill seems to lean more green, it's probably just scanning or maybe one of the lenses has minor coating variation, but still interesting.

Amazing!!!! I love it!

Bootleg 800T looking better to cinestill in my opinion! Really can’t tell the difference. Thanks for the video

I was researching square format 35mm cameras and found your video. It is excellent information on a very unique camera. Thank you very much for taking the time to create this video.

Dude, nice Video. Keep going, would like to watch more!

Thank you for your awesome video! I think it'll help me. Last week the Robot Star of my 1969 died Grandfather found the way into my hands. It's my first analog camera since my early childhood. Normally I'm taking photos with my digital Fujifilm cameras. So - if the Robot Star will work - I hope I can handle it and get some cool photos out of it. The first sentence of my son as he saw the camera was: "It has no display. How can you take pictures when you don't see what you're pointing on?" 😁 And my first thought was: "How to focus without seeing it in the viewfinder and how to set the right exposure time without any indicators in the camera?". I have to learn a lot now! 🙈🤣 Taking photos back in this time must have been much more work than today. 😅

I think the square format on 35mm film was a fantastic idea.

Great video, thank you! I got 4 rolls of ORWO NC500 and didnt try them yet. After watching all revies Im a bit scaptical to that film. Ive got few rolls of ORWO expired in 90ties. Maybe Ill try both fresh and expired at the same time to see if there will be any visible difrence between them :) Cheers from Poland

Thanks for sharing! I just got a few rolls myself. Thanks for the making these! Liked and Subscribed! :)

Would you recommend shooting at 800iso and then pushing in dev?
