You have a steady hand.

I just bought this Minister D and luckily I have a newer version. Different front of the lens. More graceful and two-tone. More subtle company engraving on the top plate and most importantly. Light meter switch. In the newer version, it is turned from off to on and vice versa. in the older model there is a button with a red dot that must be pressed all the time for the meter to measure the light and you already know that it is not convenient. So I either have it turned on or not. And the last difference. Rangefinder adjustment cap. The older version has a rubber cap. Newer metal screw.

I have it but now I bought Yashica Minister D. Much better camera😊

Such a beautiful set up and beautiful images - respect. GAS taking hold.

Great skill using the camera!

The olympus has parallax correction. Also exposure guide at the back is so cool a useful. I have both btw and i love it.

Great topic. Appreciate it. Some of those were wedding bangers, for sure.

Great work, keep it up!

Always appreciate your videos and top quality sir. Thanks a lot. I do own a Pentax MX with 50 1.7 and 28 2.8 and it’s a gorgeous little fully mechanical tool I treasure, came from my dad. Best regards from Spain

I thought every one of those portraits was outstanding. Nice work.

The picture of the reporter and camera-operator is so cute. Love the whole video !

My family and I grew up on rockaway blvd. Parsippany was great

this would be perfect if the picture was full frame...

Why is the distance always 15 feet and with an open aperture the models are in sharply imaged space? this is clearly fake

I owned both of these, but didn’t keep either one for long. The Yashica has a very sharp lens, but the camera is too big, heavy and clunky for my taste. The Canon’s lens was not as sharp. The body size and shape were fine. But I like Olympus better, and I like the Olympus 35RC and 35SP better.

What do you use to scan film?

Would be cool to see what film you used along with exposure measurement and camera settings for photos. I just got 500c/m and figuring out how to get results I expect.

I am going to use a Hasselblad camera of the same model as yours to photograph the wedding of my relatives. Could you please tell me what method you use to focus quickly and accurately?😢

Hi. May i know what kind of focuring screen you are using here? The screen is very bright.👍🏻

This is great! What focusing screen do you use?

Nice video! Just wondering how do you meter?

Which focusing screen is that?

what a crazy way to review a beautiful lens! please do over...

What a great find!! Thank you for saving these.

Will this work on a Bronica ETRS?

Really enjoyed the video! What film were you using?

Hi, cool work! We'd like to collaborate, how can we get in touch? :)

Cool video! What film stock are you shooting with? Also, since you do a lot of street with the hassy, what is the slowest handheld shutter speed you can go without getting blur? 1/30? With my Rollei TLR I can hit 1/30 but I'm not sure about the hassy cause of the mirror slap.

What lens you used?

How do you film your camera while you are holding it with two hands? Absolutely loved this video to determine which lens I wanna use! Thanks!

Very cool Lou! Thanks for making this video!

UPDATE: Someone pointed out the following: "The power tower is in the same place that it was. It was replaced with a thinner tower not long ago. That's not Huron but Rockaway Blvd. There was at least one house where the park is today." So indeed that seems to be right and solves the doubt i had that wasnt adding up. That means that indeed the photos were taken from atop the beach structure. So what we are looking at is essentially the current pool parking lot, and a house that was on what is now LH park. Thanks for the info.

That was a handball court wall. I was there when it was a beach... and the beach was contaminated by Drew Chemical. My father was one of the main people who help built that pool. I have very old pictures of this area

really nice shot! since I saw your video in 2018, I am attracted by your photo and the Hasselblad , finally I got my Hasselblad recently. Hoping you could keep shooting and have a nice day.

Nice one again! Which screen do you use in your camera? I'm thinking about swapping my standard focusing screen for an Acute Matte D. Unfortunately, this is quite expensive ☹

Seems sweet... but you already have to own the Hasselblad. I keep wishing Fuji would do an ultrawide Instax Square, something like a 45mm lens on Instax would be equivalent to the 38mm of the Hasselblad SWC. Sure, plastic lens and body isn't going to be as nice, but if it cost about the same as a regular Instax Square camera, I'd order one without hesitation.

Short but sweet video Luis, I was hoping that you would release a video of the vido setup you use for recording your viewfinder of your Hassleblad 500CM? #Londonlovesyou

04:29 How do you pick up the next camera 'without moving'? ;) Thanks for the upload btw, much appreciated!

Crap.

Great image, terrific story!

Cool video! What happened to the 2nd and 3rd photo between the hot dog trucks? I would like to see the 2nd, looks like a child running?

Watching the ground glass as you walk is nauseating. Would have liked to see more of the photos.

What kind of mount are you using to shoot this top-down view of the viewfinder?

worst piece of crap I ever bought since 1979. Event the USSR camera were not that poorly made ! avoid at all cost (pun). plus no way to get a picture in focus. plus no way to get a picture in focus.

Just found your channel, very nice photos and interesting perspective! What's your setup to record the waist level viewfinder?

I'm looking forward to getting one of these for my Pacemaker 45 Speed. So is this how it is then? Can I compensate rangefinder? Will back glass focusing be off as well then?
