@@47pricey I haven’t shared it before, maybe I can figure out how to get it on my website. If I get the time this week and figure it out I’ll respond back to you

@@dudecb maaaan thank you so much for this! I always hope people see the beauty of the places and things I capture! This means alot 🙏🏽

Thank you! It’s hard not to commit to a long video but it feels good to have it out there!

@@Cruzzzin nice!! And I usually shoot raw and edit them afterwards

I paid 500 for the body and 85 for the lens! So you definitely got a great price. Usually why I like buying second hand as well! I got it off mpb this time

Appreciate it!

We completely gutted it then added our own insulation

I’m 5’9” I was able to stand up straight in the middle of the van but everywhere else I had to tilt my head a bit. When it comes to sleeping sideways you’ll definitely have to curl your legs up unless you insert the bed vertically

I’m 5’9 and I was still able to stand kinda comfortably. Just had to turn my neck a little haha and no it wasn’t really. I basically just cut all the wires that were visible and then tied them up with electric tape and pushed it under the carpet and in some little holes I could find. All taped up tho so that it was safe.

Those panel is going to act like a wing. The fiberglass topper will flex then crack

A whole lot of annoying work, if I could redo it I would use the flexible solar panels that are also available from Renogy. Then just bolt it’s right thru

It really is a great camera, the $300 was fine with me at the time because I grew a relationship with the shop owners and they’re good people. They’ve also taken care of me with a few other things for free. Haven’t regretted it! I’m actually looking for another film camera preferably an M mount. Maybe a Konica hexar rf

About 15k! But it can be done cheaper for sure with the same quality. We over spent a bit on things we ended up leaving behind as well as a lot of extra material. We also work from our phones so that’s how we keep the bills paid

Thanks bro, Fuji xt4 and the Fuji 16-55mm 2.8

Appreciate you! Trying to make the most I can with what I got

For sure! We’ll shoot the van tour within the next few days, good luck to you!

@@stedalejandro yea looking forward to the full tour and how you did things.

Bro I was suppose to call you my bad we were dying in the south, that heat was no joke haha

Hey, I’m 5’9” and I can almost stand upright. So probably 5’7” of standing room. My girlfriend is 5’4” and she stands comfortably in it

Did 85 all the way to Florida from Maryland and it held very well! We made sure of it cause it be a pain to lose one and replace it

Hey sorry just seeing this! It’s just plywood 3/4th of an inch. I cut it from a large scrap piece we had

Yessir!!

You guys as well!

For sure, I enjoy shooting with a rangefinder. That doesn’t bother me. I actually just picked up an F3 and I’ve been loving it. Just got the zeiss planar 50mm 1.4 as well so I’m excited to shoot that combo together for my serious work. I’ve been using the 28mm e series lens from Nikon just cause I found it in good condition at a camera store

You may be correct in all that you say, but it's still a cool little camera to own, even if it sits on a shelf. 😂

For sure, we all learn eventually. The unfortunate part is the information you just gave me was no where to be found online. It seems like everyone deemed it as a great camera without talking much of its downsides as well as its history in the market. I’m actually thinking about grabbing a mamiya 6 sometime this year. Do you have any insight on that camera?

@@stedalejandro Don't rely to much on this guy's negative comment. Yeah the XA has it's flaws but there is no 1 camera to rule them all. If you're a beginner, start with a camera that is cheap like a point and shoot (that AF- is perfect) + an SLR that can go full manual. And from that you can learn and understand what you really want in a camera. They are all just light tight boxes so the only thing that matters for image quality is the available lenses, the right film for the right moment (not using tungsten based cinestill on a super bright day for example) and most importantly knowing which light and settings will give the results you want. I mean if you can't take a good photo with a cheap SLR or point and shoot than you won't miraculously take good photo's with an expensive one. I do think it's good that you said why you didn't like the XA, that's a step forward in knowing what you DO want but that doesn't mean the XA is a bad camera like this guy think it is, it's just not for you or him and that's ok.

@@appleshampoo324 I agree with you 100% I bought it impulsively when I wanted a basic point and shoot so it’s a lesson learned. The Olympus Infinity we got is great btw and takes great images. Im picking up a Nikon f3 and keeping my mamiya 645 to continue shooting film

Huh!? Lol. This 6 element lens is Great! Especially that all you have to do is enclose the slide to cover it

Yea it’s stedkilledstevy
