Beautiful shots on the x100v and great production on the video. That opening with that dark music was sick. Look forward to seeing more.

[@Benjaminjohansson93]

Great video!! The x100 series sure can take some remarkable photos for being such a small (but beautiful) camera. Love my x100f!

[@DylanSpitz]

So glad you enjoyed it! Totally agree with you, love the X100 series!

[@RT-ip4bb]

beautiful!! Love the atmosphere you see and create through the glasses. in japanese we generally use the word/phrase ‘空気/air’ or ‘空気感/feel of air’ when acknowledging the beauty of the ‘atmosphere’ and your photos and clips made me want to say such things🤣 looking forward to more videos with your feel of air:)

[@DylanSpitz]

Wow, thank you so much! That’s a very kind way to hear my images described - I appreciate the compliment!

Thank you, Nathaniel! So encouraging to hear that. 🙏

@@DylanSpitz I’m originally from the Pacific Northwest, so it’s awesome to see it repped in a cinematic way.

[@DylanSpitz]

@Nathaniel Rolland oh right on, man! We just moved out here from Ohio where both my wife and I grew up - what a life change.

[@NathanielRolland]

@@DylanSpitz that’s awesome. Did I see that you do your own original synth tracks too?

[@DylanSpitz]

@@NathanielRolland I do! When I have time, haha. The intro montage of this video and the last one are some short examples of that. I also have some full length pieces on here as older videos!

[@DylanSpitz]

Too kind, thank you! It is such a great tool. Never gets in the way, love the classic controls…no complaints here at all.

@@DylanSpitz The classic controls are what attracted me to it also. I can't understand why other makes haven't followed suit. I look forward to watching more of your stuff.

Thank you, Paul! Appreciate the support.

[@GRANDDOSE]

Beautiful vid man.. that Sony is niice. Looking to get the X-E4 as a hybrid for mostly photos but can still grab some nice video.

[@DylanSpitz]

Hey, thanks dude! X-E4 is a cool little camera for sure. Incredibly capable for how tiny it is.

[@mistermatsuda]

If you keep producing photo vids like this one, you're gonna be popular.

[@DylanSpitz]

Wow, thank you! Very encouraging to hear that. Working on the next one - hopefully they’ll keep getting better from here.

[@Johak1982]

Nice music. Where did u get it? Fits the style of this video very nice!

Man gorgeous shots bro

[@DylanSpitz]

Thank you so much!

[@lexerium7892]

The images are really stunning! Can you tell which recipes (filmsimulations) you are using?

[@DylanSpitz]

Hey, thanks! No recipes, actually. I just shoot in raw and develop the photos in Lightroom from scratch

[@Chazyfizzlez]

Would you consider doing a video on your editing workflow? Your color edits are phenomenal! Would love to see how you get to your final images from raw.

[@DylanSpitz]

Thanks so much! Maybe one day 🙃🤙

[@TopshelfJunior]

1:14 That chimping instinct took over lol. He really thought he was about to see something lol..

[@DylanSpitz]

Hahahaha!

[@larrypan2571]

This gotta have more view. This is some of the best photography I have seen. have been thinking about X100v but decided to just add a 23mmf1.4 wrlm to the xt4 lens list

[@DylanSpitz]

Wow, thank you so much for the kind words! I don’t even know what to say - your support means the world. Oh, and very cool! That lens will be so nice to shoot with.

[@GrandTreasureBay]

Nice vid. Love the shots and the nature scene. I recently shot on an AGFA Selecta when we visited the Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore. It was only 12 degrees F. Apparently 60 year old cameras that haven't been serviced might have the lens stick when it's that cold. The digital with the lens has some serious zoom to get that eagle the way you did. Would have loved to hear more commentary on the trip, seems like an incredible time.

[@DylanSpitz]

Oh, shoot! That's a bummer about the extreme temps freezing up the lens. I'm sure it was a fun time at least, that area looks beautiful. Thanks so much for the feedback on the video, I will take your input and do some more commentary next time for sure - still trying to balance how to not ramble while also providing some interesting notes on the experience. I'm way more comfortable behind the camera rather than in front, but I'm working on it! haha. Oh! and the lens was a 70-200mm - the eagles were all over the place and super close to us. Quite the experience watching them. Cheers!

[@GrandTreasureBay]

@@DylanSpitz it was a great time! I definitely don't mean to be a critic, just was kinda curious on more of the ins and outs of the trip. I'm still working on how to create more engaging videos so I'm probably the last person to have an opinion on the subject.

[@DylanSpitz]

@@GrandTreasureBay Oh I didn't take it that way at all, just thankful that you gave it a watch and cared enough to drop some insight. Means a lot!

[@CrisostomoIbarra1989]

Love this kind of content 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

[@DylanSpitz]

Really glad you enjoyed it!

[@ahomeinSeattle]

I was looking at the x100v but ended up getting a used XT1 instead because it was cheap! Got to love the fujifilm. I'm going to visit Palouse Falls now, it's stunning. Great video!

[@DylanSpitz]

Oh, cool! You can’t go wrong with those cameras. Super fun to use and beautiful colors. Glad you liked the video, I appreciate it! And yes you should go visit - enjoy the falls, quite an otherworldly place.

[@punkmilatv]

Great vid man. Are the shots @3:56 on a fuji recipe Portra 400 or 800 ?

[@DylanSpitz]

Thanks, dude! All of the shots in this video were shot in raw and processed in Lightroom. No presets or anything like that.

[@punkmilatv]

@@DylanSpitz cool, like those 2 edits :)

[@desdubberweddingphotograph5748]

Lovely video Dylan. Can I ask what camera you used to shoot the video? Thanks.

[@DylanSpitz]

Hey, thanks! Sure thing - Sony A7SIII 🤘

[@samprstn]

Beautiful video, got my XT-4 a couple of days ago and have really enjoyed shooting digital photos for the first time in a long time, but I did decide against the x100v as my only digital camera

[@DylanSpitz]

I’d say you made the perfect call. Flexibility of that setup will be great long term with multiple lenses and such.

[@samprstn]

@@DylanSpitz for sure needed the interchangeable lenses and 10 bit colour. Great visuals in this video though, a sub from me :)

[@nasseral-rawi1353]

Nice vid! I don't know much about cameras but the shots look dope and I love the sick beats and audio you put in. Did you make these?

[@DylanSpitz]

Thanks man! I wish I had time to write all of it - the intro montage music I did, the rest I didn’t. Glad you like it though!

[@jubilee0418]

Thanks for the video. Did you use diffusion filter?

[@DylanSpitz]

For some of the shots I did, yes. 1/8 Tiffen black pro mist.

[@nachohernandez9491]

Epic

[@DylanSpitz]

Appreciate that 🙏

[@walkingmanvideo9455]

Do you photograph in BNW on the 100v so you see it through the EVF in BNW or do you shoot on color?

[@DylanSpitz]

I actually switch the in-camera film simulation a lot depending on the scene I'm shooting. Not always, but most of the time, I shoot it in black and white in-camera and then i'll keep it that way in post.

[@evanjones2422]

great vid! would you recommend this camera for a beginner? also, does it have a monochrome setting?

[@mhouel5227]

Definitely! And yes there is a monochrome profile ( ACROS )

[@DylanSpitz]

Thank you! Yeah, I think it would work well for a beginner. Very fun to use, so it would make the learning process enjoyable. Also, yes there are quite a few monochrome shooting settings that I use frequently - very customizable little camera.

These photos are all incredible -- I can't stop watching. Did you use any simulations for these? Or were you shooting raw?

Thanks Deniz 🤙 just raw and processed in Lightroom

[@ericjhaber]

How do you find the Fuji raw files render in Lightroom? I’ve heard not-so-great things

[@DylanSpitz]

Hey! I’ve never had an issue with them at all. Given, I’ve never tried any other program…Lightroom is just what I’ve always used and feel comfortable with.

[@justin13leechannel]

Amazing shots, just subscribed! Did you use any kind of diffusion filter with the x100v?

[@DylanSpitz]

Hey, thanks so much! Depending on the mood I’m in, I sometimes use a 1/8 Tiffen Black Pro Mist.

did you film this with the x100v between the shots
