Cinestill 50D

[@someonewithsomename]

yeah, being iso 50 film, this stock is rather saturated: said Jason while removing all the saturation and shadows from the scans

The midday sun is actually a great source of Vitamin 50D

[@headwerkn]

I’ve only shot Vision3 50D in Super8, but seeing your shots in bright midday light make me think this would be an ideal colour film to take bushwalking in harsh AF Australian sun.

[@RodrigoWBlum]

"50D requires a lot of light, mostly because I overexpose the hell out of it"

[@briansavage932]

Yeah, 50d normally looks really nice and contrasty if shot at box speed and metered correctly. You can't be afraid of shadows!

[@alr1577]

yeah those photos came out like ass lol

[@jelkafabianova2801]

some were nice but I seriously want to see it box-speed metered

[@ai-man212]

Back in the day, I only ever shot in 50 - 100 iso film. Grain was for silos and hippies. What we were really after (though we didn't know it yet) was the look of digital photography. Just ever-improving resolution, detail and creativity. Aaaahhhhhh! The idea that we could take that detail and deconstruct it into the look of film someday through AI...why, that was never even a whim.

[@BillyMcBillface]

I recently got my scans back from the first rolls I shot since I stopped a few years ago. Some looked like absolute trash but others were better than I thought. Thanks for inspiring me to shoot film again, you goofball.

[@emmbee1665]

Love the shot you said was creepy, all the bright sunlight & saturation in these reminds me so much of Midsommar 🤩

[@kevinmarkham6385]

wow that is so crazy i was just there at that Arizona 9 motel sign. i went to the grand canyon around the same time lol. i even thought to myself driving across Arizona with my nikon f5 taking pictures "i'm like grainydays." Have to get the rolls developed still but i was shooting fuji provia 100f and lomochrome purple

[@JTobiason]

The layers and shadow on the image at 5:53 is my fav. Well done.

[@imanevilpotatoe7546]

I do car photography, and you can get halations from shiny chrome parts or light reflections in general

[@jacopoabbruscato9271]

[@mattparkin7224]

If you don't want the halation, you can buy Vision3 250D and get it processed at a lab that does ECN-2. I shot 4 and a half rolls and didn't really notice any halation at all

[@dflf]

I dropped into my local film processer {a Chain camera store here in NorCal} and asked about ECN-2 processing on a roll of Cinestill 50D which they sell btw and I got a blank stare.

[@michalitwa9386]

I think shooting Cine 50D in night would be a nice experiment

[@JankyChris]

The first thing to shoot on cinestill's daylight film is artificial light

[@aristoioannidis7490]

Outstanding assessment Jason. Love your work. I am getting use to the grain of the 50D. My rolls are always developed in C41. I struggle to find a lab in Sydney that can process in ECN.

[@SPTSuperSprinter156]

I believe that town you rolled into is Williams, AZ. I stayed the night there after visiting the Grand Canyon. Didn't really scratch the surface, but just to see it was something I've always wanted to do. Interestingly, that town looked so much better at night than it does here in the day.

[@RyoFerasta]

overexposing cinestill 50d +32 stops seems like a good idea since it has the 16 stops DyNaMiC RaNgE

[@KelseySmithPhotography]

Killer video as always Jason!! That shot at 3:49 is so good!! I’m disappointed that I only got to see Baxter once though!!! MORE BAXTER CONTENT Edit: I would never cross those tiny narrow cliffs in a million years

[@victorcarmelo8606]

I was crapping my pants on my sofa watching the cave ledge parts as I have no head for heights, but still watched like nevertheless. Beautiful images and intrigued as how they always have a lovely pastel colour look no matter what film stock you use reminds me of Ektachrome 64 of last century!!! Thanks.

[@JamieMPhoto]

The remjet example ... brilliant. I think 50D is one of the sleeper films out there at the moment, despite the ISO being a bit limiting at times.

[@ShonenNick]

The ISO isn't limiting! Trust me. Photographers shoot this as if it's Portra 50, which is most certainly isn't. Cinema filmstock has insane dynamic range and is designed to be pushed/pulled/over-/under-exposed. It's also meant to be heavily edited afterwards. The cinema workflow is about getting the desired result from a malleable image by any means necessary. I've shot 50D from EI 50 all the way up to 200 before and got great results. Some even trust it at 400. Not pushed, just underexposed.

[@lobsterbark]

This film with the remjet looks quite different. Maybe it's the presoak that remjet removal requires that makes it look different. Either way, the straight Kodak movie stock is way cheaper and better IMO. It's like Ektar but more flexible because it doesn't saturate the colors so much that heavy editing is required for portraits to look good. The lower iso is also a benefit because it allows you to open up the lens more without using an ND filter in daylight. If you buy short ends and bulk load, it's around $2-3 a roll of 36.

[@peterbromaghin7621]

You got it. And 100ft rolls can be had from normal outlets and come to about $5/roll. Process it yourself with an ECN-2 kit and it's another $5. Competitive with B&W and way cheaper than buying single rolls and sending it out for C41 processing. And I don't get the over exposure and bland, washed-out colors so many people seem to prefer. Yuk.

[@CozyGirlLon11]

I feel like this film would be good for like cottagecore aesthetic type pictures bc of the softness of the colors

[@BadFlashes]

OH sweet memories!

[@VariTimo]

CineStill doesn’t remove the rem jet layer anymore. They just get the master roll without any rem jet coating from Kodak directly.

[@mikejankowski6321]

Another awesome video! Love the story, your narration, the video, and of course the stills. You really leveraged the film's character in that orange silhouette. You also gave a very good description of the film's unique qualities and play-by-play of your adventure. The one point I have to make is that the colors in the stills were not anywhere near as saturated or pleasing to my eye as those of the video. The video really popped. Most of the stills were short of what I would expect from your description. There were a couple with pleasing greens and the reds at the cafe were good, but for the most part the colors could not keep up with your imaging skills. Maybe my monitor is off, or maybe I am. I found myself thinking of the Metropolis review. Anyway, thanks for the post!

I got a similar look with Cinestill 50D - a bit too flat with shift towards cyan color look for my taste. I find Ektar 100 giving a very different much more saturated and less flat look (debit here are often blue shadows which 50D fortunately doesn't do!). I likely won't buy 50D again for the price it goes for. I get more from a simple Kodak Gold.

[@jagerbolt90]

You weren't kidding about CineStill exposure latitude. I recently did my first roll of 400D, and I took a really awesome photo of Waffle House at the crack of dawn. The shadows were pretty damn dark, but I was able to pull them to where they looked presentable. They had weird aqua tint of some sort that was kind of weird, but thankfully, desaturating as such made it look really good. Needless to say, CineStill is now me what cannabis was when I was in high school... my whole personality.

[@xandercesari9773]

I've still never gotten results out of 50D that I like, both 35mm and 120. Last roll I shot was terribly green in the highlights and purple in the shadows. With some Lightroom edits it was fine I guess but I just can't get excited about shooting it again. It doesn't seem to have significantly less or smaller grain than Ektar so the low ISO doesn't do much for me. A friend in the movie biz mentioned that cinema stocks are generally designed for more color post-processing than stills stocks since it's part of the whole production pipeline. Not sure if that's true or I just can't crack the 50D code.

[@austing2968]

I know it’s expensive as all hell but try bracketing your shots. Some of these specialty film stocks get severe color shifts from both over and under exposure

[@xandercesari9773]

@@austing2968 yeah I shot a bunch of the last roll with EI pushed to 100 as I heard it tames some of those tones a bit, but a few shots pulled it down a stop since I was panning with a camera that had a 1/4000 max shutter. The under exposed shots were certainly a bit better in those shadow/highlight tones but still not as good as a stills stock.

[@xandercesari9773]

@Frank Silvers no but the lab I work with usually has stellar scans

I really don't get the cinestill hype. Vision3 with remjet gives much better results imo. Also is 3 times cheaper to buy can be C41 processed after mask removal for the cheap seats or properly ecn2 developed which is $2.5 more per roll (where i live).

[@someonewithsomename]

Also, don't you guys have ECN-2 in film labs? Can't understand why no one in US talks about just straight Vision3

[@someonewithsomename]

@Frank Silvers It's always Cinestill film, rarely original Kodak Vision3 in all those reviews and stuff.

[@someonewithsomename]

@Frank Silvers They use Vision3 You are missing the point

[@obsidian00]

Any great video…you guys were right up the 17 from me!

[@VariTimo]

I‘d really like to know where you got the notion from that lower speed films are more saturated. There is no pattern that speaks to that. If anything higher ISO films are more saturated know. Portra 800 is the most saturated film in the Portra line. With 400 being less saturated and 160 being the most muted color negative film available now. And CineStill 800T is considerably more saturated that 50D and the same is true for the Vision 3 films processed in ECN-2 chemicals. 500T is the most saturated of the Vision 3 films while 50D, is the most muted. Sure Ektar is very very saturated but that’s because it’s been designed to be this way. I don’t think that saturation and film speed are inherently related. Or at least, that it comes down to what kind of film the manufacturer wants to make.

[@VariTimo]

@UCXzlY6vZj5S-VRx3mOhnmuA Yea but that is rating you film at a lower ISO and basically overexposing it. He is saying that lower ISO films are by themselves more saturated, which is not true. And this goes across brands. Back when Fuji made their Superia films at different speeds, Superia 100 and 200 were less saturated than the faster ones.

[@terancepickles]

Yeah, I was also confused by this. 🤣
