When 400D hits it hits, but I feel like it's a bit inconsistent in my limited 35mm and 120mm use. Great shots!

[@mfchillin]

I've noticed my mamiya 7 sometimes winds the finished rolls a bit too loose, and i get the same light leaks! 9/10 from the top and bottom of the negative, and it all comes down to how much i cranked that lever when finishing off the roll

[@IceBergs]

The 35mm Variant (as a mostly medium format user) is really really really good. Personally, I think it's overpriced for what it is, however, every once in awhile it's cool. I maybe shoot it once a month or so. I really like its flexibility in post especially in replicating movie looks as that's something I'm interested in. As for your light leaks, I have also noticed this only in the 120 variant and I believe this comes down to how they're manufacturing it. I've shot quite a few rolls of this stuff in both formats and if you look on the borders of the 400D in 120 you can see similar light leaks as the ones in your images but throughout the roll. Not sure why it's happening either but all my other 120 doesn't do this at all on the borders, so I'm assuming it's like I said how they're stripping or creating the stock.

[@BadFlashes]

120 4 LYFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@MaxNex]

⁠Hey thinking of traveling to Northern CA and was wondering if you give me the location of the town the boat is in? I would luv to photograph that boat with my GFX 100s. That location looks so Epic! Any how keep up the great work! Even if you don’t give out locations of the subjects, continue the struggle my Man!!!!

Hahahahahaha thanks brother 🥰 Next time get your outfit and we photoshoot!

[@redsphoto6708]

Awesome shots as always. The 4x5 400D shots sing! I got a box too from the crowdraiser so I am looking forward to shooting it. You are right the best part is the price. Some 4.4Usd/sheet is way better than Portra's 7.5/sheet...now please someone anyone...bring this into 8x10. I'd love to try color 8x10 once in my life and at 28-31Usd/sheet I don't know if I could ever justify Portra

[@BadFlashes]

Thanks so much!!! That’s awesome you got some :)

May the 4th be with you. I will lookinto this film. All your photos in all formats came out nice. I will say. From time to time I see a photographer that has interesting and unique light leaks on their photos. Yours are included. I think they add to the photos. I would personally keep them in if they were my photos and exhibit them in my art shows. Good Job.

[@jw48335]

Cinestill is shady AF suing other small film companies over BS patent claims. Go Lomo 400 - better quality anyway with less halation.

I must of been underneath a rock as I didn’t realise cinestill was doing 400D. 800T has worked great for me on set doing BTS shots. Cool comparison of each format. What FUJINON lens is that you have on large format? 135?

Not there finest hour but they put out a statement in the matter.

On the one hand, no one who uses Apple or Adobe* products has a right to judge anyone shooting Cinestill; in the other hand... I think the statement made things worse--not better. *The platinum standard of evil, Northrup and Boeing look under their beds for Apple and Adobe.

[@BadFlashes]

Thanks 🙏🏼 And I feel ya

[@VariTimo]

It could be that the camera with the 35mm film has incorrect shutter speeds and thus underexposes a little bit. Or are your 35mm rolls from the release batch or just older than the 4x5 and 120? Because movie stocks don’t age like stills stocks.

[@BadFlashes]

New and fresh.

[@VariTimo]

@@BadFlashes Then wtf? Were they scanned differently?

[@mikejankowski6321]

I too was wondering if the 35 was just a little underexposed by comparison. Even at that, though, the difference in the boat hull and surroundings looked inherent in the film response.

[@BadFlashes]

Scanned the same

[@BadFlashes]

Yeah I could be that the meter in the Ricoh makes it a bit under

[@srt10acrx]

I think using the point and shoot for 35 makes it kind of a useless comparison. You aren't choosing any of the settings so you can't really say that the shadows are worse on 35 if you don't know what settings were used. And the lens is soft. A lot of the 35 shots are not quite in focus which isn't an issue with the film stock but the camera. Still all around I think the comparison between 4x5 and 120 is super interesting.

[@BadFlashes]

Yeah. Thanks why I say in the video that it’s not the best. The original idea for the 35mm cameras was going to be different but I had to pivot on the fly. That’s why the Ricoh happed

I’ve only used 400D in 120 and must admit it isn’t my favorite film. I will freely admit I badly under exposed my first roll and believe me don’t under expose this stuff. Under exposed it is very muddy with a horrible greenish cast to it. My best results have been at ISO 200-320. Right now I’m trying Kodak Vision 3 500T with the remjet still on it and processed in ECN2 chemicals for my 135 cameras. But I rather doubt I’ll be getting anymore CineStill films
