I just put out a video about my canon p as well. It's dope seeing this camera get so much love.

Love your work.

Cardiff! Lovely to see. Great video 👏

Cool videos dude ! Keep on shooting on 👌. Tommy

very useful thanks!

Do you like to use to the sunny 16?

Perfect! Thanks for sharing your process.

How is this camera in a dark setting, ex: concert?

In the day it was the common property way to wind film all rhe way back into canister.

Wait, I'm not supposed to pop the film canister open with a bottle opener when I develop?

I think Nikon SP is good Leica alternative ;3 i own Leica m4 but Nikon SP is so beautifull camera

I wish I still had my Kodachrome prints that I had hand printed on Cibachrome at home in the early 80s. Colours to die for and that deep bronze/gold sheen on the prints. No AI could even imagine that, neve rmind reproduce it.

Right on bw is great just like analog music.study the great masters it will blow your mind.brillant sir

Really nice shots! But to get the most out of vision3 you should get it scanned on a motion picture scanner like midwestfilmco uses :)

I don't understand why people bang on about Leica cameras so much. Yes, they are beautifully made and reliable, but Leica lenses are what make decent images, not the camera bodies. Also, a good photographer can create excellent images with (relatively) cheap equipment. A rubbish photographer will not create nice photographs whatever gear he uses.

nice shots man

Is it posible to use it with an APSC sensor or is it useless ?

No.

did you use gpt 3.5 or gpt 4?

wtf did I just watch?

Useful info, I just picked one up today.😊 I've added your channel, it's always good to connect with other retro photographers. 📷

Contrast. Your Kodachrome clones lack the K-64 contrast. Try some images shot in late day sun, and recreate that heavy saturation in yellow and red. The shadows should be more “blocked in.” This is a valid concept, hope you get some positive results.

I guess the Canon is exactly what i was searching for: Character, not too sharp (like my Rollei Planar), small and beautiful😍 Already have a Jupiter8... Can you create this type of "Swirley Bokeh" with this lens too?

Thank you for contributing some real reflective perspectives on this platform where the "why film" question is so often lost to the temporal commercialization of intangible looks ❤️

Love the video mate - especially the colours, seems like you put a lot of effort into it :D

Nice review cheers. I fancied a P for so long I bid on plenty but they always went for way more than I wanted to pay. Recently I picked up a canon L3 for a bargain imho it’s an awesome camera my first effort with it will be on my channel very soon I can say I’m absolutely chuffed to bits with the L3. Canon made some awesome rangefinder cameras. Liked and subbed keep the content coming cheers

I can't find any without a lens in them in UK, you've dropped really lucky there what a great set up

Thanks for a really great option, Ive been looking at loads of flatbeds and. other options but this is an awesome find, keep up the great videos

Thank you for a really useful video.

Touching the negatives with your bare hands will leave marks on your negatives, so it’s best to always wear gloves. Also, pulling your negatives without lifting the gate will scratch your negatives. You have to open it for every frame and place it carefully to avoid damaging your negatives.

I thought your channel had like 100k subs , great video and production quality.

Sick dude, the video editing is so relaxing

perfect tysm. I bought one of these and knew the red flag had to do with light but forgot exactly. this is great :)

What creative prompts to you use whilst out taking photos? Comment down below!

this was so useful thank you ♥️

some of these are in llantwit major?

The only downfall of the Canon P are the prices. Gorgeous camera though.

Hi, I used my Canon P for five years successfully before I bought a Leica. The P is a great rangefinder. I had a few issues with it so after 2 years I sent it for a full CLA to Kanto Camera. After the CLA it's like a brand new camera from the factory. Don't listen to the commenter below who says the slow shutter speeds can't be fixed, no parts etc. This is not true. Kanto services this camera. Enjoy your Canon P!

bro u have to come back! I love your video editing style, it's super unique and enjoyable to watch. Your mic was a bit low and it was kinda hard to hear you cause it sounded like u were mumbling(just as some constructive criticism)

Good to see your video. Thanks. What's your opinion of using the Canon R10 or R5 for vintage lenses?

Good job !! I just got one it’s a beauty

While I agree that the Canon rangefinder cameras of the 1950-60s are a better value and much more cost-effective than Leicas of the same vintage, I'll dispute and offer a counter-argument against the Canon P as the model to prefer. I collected Canon RF bodies and lenses for about 20 years in the 1980s and 90s, and have a good deal more than an average familiarity with the models. The Canon P was considered a lesser version of the group for most of its existence because it was designed to be a less featured, cheaper option to attract new buyers. It is built as well as its more expensive contemporaries. The P has been unmercifully hyped on YT for the last 5+ years, leading to something of "run" on it by people new to the Canon models. So, why not a P? 1. Its viewfinder. To save cost of manufacture, Canon eliminated its outstanding (for the time) variable magnification viewfinder, instead using a fixed viewfinder with frame lines in the view. The result is a wider than average finder view which is harder to focus and cluttered to look through. 2. Its shutter. It shares what then was the new shutter Canon developed for its great technical leap forward over Leica to be used in the 7 and 7S models. When new, it was that. It uses a steel foil shutter curtain which is indestructible compared to the cloth curtains used in the Leicas. However, those curtains have a lt more mass to move and stop. That required much higher spring-driven operating tensions. As a result, those shutters wear out more quickly and high speeds slow beyond the ability to adjust them. At that point, repair requires parts which have not been available for more than 40 years. Repair options: None. You live with slow speeds above 1/125. (This problem is equally shared with the 7and 7S, of course.) Preference: With the over-pricing of the P these days, the VIT or VIL become better choices. They have a better viewfinder. Their shutter is still an improved version of the same shutter Leica used, cheap and easy to repair almost anywhere. The VT and VL are also an option, but they use an earlier design of the shutter.

This deserves more likes!!

Thanks for this video mate relly useful

I like the viewfinder in my Canon P better than my Leica's. The canon you have superimposed images you align, in the Leica there is a focusing rectangle which find annoying.

Ha, loaded some of this into my 120 brownie. I'll post a video about how it turns out, hopefully something like this!

Great review!! I recently bought a canon model 7 and bought some ltm lenses as well such as the industar 26 m and canon 50 mm f1.8 ltm. I haven’t tried both lenses and the camera itself using film but i def bought it with the same reason as why u did which is to reignite my passion with photography due to covid i got rly unmotivated with photography. Def cannot wait to go out and test out my canon 7 ☺️.
