I think I got very lucky with my experience with slide. I bought a 20 pack of film off a woman for $15. Turns out it was a 20 pack of Velvia, which was refrigerated for years. Then I went to my local lab, and they even developed slide film!

Amazing! I used to manage a camera store & pros used to buy slide film by the “brick” which is the term for a 20 roll pack. It was maybe $8 a roll at that amount. You got an amazing deal…even in yesterday’s standards.

I've been shooting slide film since I was "your age", that's way, way back in the 1960's! Your absolutely right about needing your exposure to be correct. I find them pretty tolerant of, say..... a half an F-stop either way. Much more and your "mistake" is clearly visible to all. But, even with multiple 36-exposure rolls, I would only very rarely get an unusable image. If the "Photographer" is paying attention, and actually does his JOB, you have no problems at all.

[@aandm7772]

what aperture do you mainly shoot on if it is day time / sunny? and day time / overcast?

[@davidarellano1305]

Can you use the light meeting reading inside the camera (I’m using a Nikon F3) in aperture priority to get the right reading for slide film. Or do you have to over/under expose the reading to get the slides to get the exposure right?

[@morna45]

Used to bracket my shots because, well, you know. light meters.

[@donaldlampert331]

I’ve found that the new Ektachrome was about $15-17.00 per roll, but processing and mounting was only $10.00, as opposed to negative developing and a set of prints was $15-16.00. I love looking at and projecting slides! Thanks

Awesome video. Love your passion. I only shoot positive/E6/slide film now due to the inconsistency with negative film from my lab (prints).

Also for stock photography back in the day. I'm shooting mostly Medium Format now. Keep up the great work, well done.

[@mersea.714]

Great video. I remember the plethora of varieties that used to be available. E100 came in vivid, vivid saturated, and saturated warm. And there were so many other options. The photography store that I managed had a refrigerator full of pro films in 4x5, 120, 220, and 35mm. Many pros bought by the pro pack (5 rolls) or by the brick (20 rolls). They also wanted the same emulsion for their shoot. Ah, the glory days of film.

I shoot a ton of E6, it's basically the same price as C41 in the case of shooting 120 film and home developing. There is but a slight premium on a film like Provia compared to Ektar or Portra, the E6 chemistry is also a little more expensive but if you do it at home it's very manageable. The easier scanning is worth a lot too for me :)

I love my slide film. I got a Nikon camera, I like to take photographs. Kodachrome gives us those nice bright colors, gives us those greens of summer. Makes you think all the world's a sunny day. You said it though, exposure is key. Nikon FA made slide film a snap for the home user w/ Matrix metering & TTL flash. Then F4 took it to the nect level, Matrix balanced TTL fill flash @ 1/250.

[@Otokichi786]

When Kodachrome was available, you had exactly two (amateur) choices: Kodachrome II/25 (ASA 25) or Kodachrome-X/64 (ASA 64). These films required exact exposure, with slight (E.I. 32/E.I. 80) underexposure options. Slide films in the days of the Canon F-1 ranged from ASA 50-160, from Agfacolor CT-18 to Anscochrome to Ektachrome and the "new kids," Fujichrome and Sakurachrome. Russian and Italian slide films could also be found with difficulty. Tungsten balanced Kodachrome 40 (KPA) and Anscochrome T100 were also available, on special order. By the way, Ektachrome 100 is a recent development; back in the 1960's it was EKtachrome-X/64 or High Speed Ektachrome (ASA 160).

Way way back in the dark ages, when I shot E6 or Kodachrome with my Canon AE-1, good exposure was hit or miss, so I bracketed at least -1,0,+1. Then I borrowed my cousin's Olympus OM-4T because I was intrigued by the multi-spot metering and I nailed every exposure - and that saved $$$, time, and effort. I saved up and bought a 4T of my own.

I shoot colour transparency film mostly when using my 5x4 (4x5 in USA) and the image quality is second to non, B&W and colour neg too but slide is unbeatable, it can be a problem if the sun is out and contrast is hard so better to wait for that passing cloud, do a quick light reading and all should be good, like you say it is more specialist now hence the ridiculous price tag. Good to see film still alive and kicking, I have an EOS 6D but it is so inferior compared to 5x4 transparency film, great video.

[@SamSilk]

Maco now produces under different names what was Agfa Rsx II 200. You can find it under the name Rollei CR 200 and lomography also has a rebranded version of this one. Colors are kinda desaturated and a large part of the color gamut is dragged towards a greenish hue. It's beautiful but not for every situation.

[@ChrisRobb77]

This is a truly terrific video and channel. All your stuff is great and informative without being KZbin-annoying. In this video you mention that you scanned your grandpa's slide collection. I'm doing the same with my dad's old slides from the 70s and 80s. I'm through about 1000 scans using an Epson v850 flatbed. I'm curious if you have any good lessons learned on that whole process. For me it was all about color and exposure correction. He gets better as time progresses, but some of his stuff is just under or over-exposed. The color balance is also all over the place since he's switching from indoor to outdoor on the same roll. I'm spending about 1-2 minutes per slide processing and Lightroom helps, but I'd love to hear if you have any good tips you've learned to get rid of some of the color casts. I'm also interested in hearing your philosophy on trying to maintain the integrity of the film stock's look. I can mess with the colors and make it look more pleasing and modern, but that also destroys some of the allure of film having a particular look.

[@PaulWon]

shot my first ektachrome last week got the scans few days ago. But I got the film mounted by the lab and my god these positive slides are beautiful. I have another roll and 3 more on the way. Its just they are little bit pricy lol

[@christopherrasmussen8718]

I used to develop GAF slide film (among other types of film).. It was in the 70s. It was a multi process, very tight temperature controlled process. I get the E6. I am sure, if I do this, If will go that way. I also have two 16mm projectors and slide projectors. . I'm on the hunt for 16mm cameras. I love to do it again. Thank for this video! 'Funny' thing was, a family member passed and she was a big time photographer. I was her favorite and I was looking forward to (considering the situation) getting her digital (high end) cameras. Somebody (neighbor we think) beat me to it. I did get a bunch of older, high end 35 mm film cameras with lenses to die for. Retired now so time to build a darkroom again. I also have an enlarger!

Being of the age group that experienced kodacrome 64, I wish, like many photographs the world over would hope and pray that kodak would reintroduced it or rather a film that would be equal to it because it did have a different chemical process to the standard slide E6 process. Ah those where the days when you could walk into your local Kodak supplier and buy a roll or two of what was the best 35mm film IMO shoot it then send it in the mail via a pre paid postage and processing envelope and a week to 10 days later get back your already cut and mounted slides, (I think unmounted and in strips of 6 was an option if I remember correctly) ready for viewing on a big screen or hand viewer for those of us who didn't have a projector.

did you do a video on how to best archive slide film? i am very keep to know how to best preserve it

[@LennyCooke636]

Back in the day(not too long ago) Most publications such as books, magazines, billboards not to mention museums, only accepted slides as their source. If you look at an old National Geographic magazine you might think the pictures were taken with a digital camera. Slide film had less grain, although that can be attributed to the low ISO on most slide film. To make prints out of slides for publication was and exacting 3 color process that required a lot of skill. There were also home kits such as Cibachrome and R300 that made it possible for anyone with a darkroom to process prints at home, but the chemicals and papers for those processes have gone extinct, never to comeback. Digital made sure of that ... I'm thinking about getting an old Kodak carousel projector and a silver-screen myself, so I can view my slides like they were meant to be viewed(like you said). In my opinion, no other medium beats that.

[@Kimbleistify]

Awesome introduction to slide film! How big of an issue is dust on the film when projecting? Do dust particles "drown" in the light or are they annoyingly visible? I'm asking because I develop my own films and they don't always turn out as clean as they could, no matter how careful I am.

[@basniemans]

Hi, love the video! I recently bought a voigtlander bessa iii which is a medium format folding camera produced between 2008 and 2014, so pretty recent for a film camera. The guy who sold it to be gave me bag full of slide film such as provia and velvia. The camera has aperture priority. I was wondering if the limited latitude will allow me to use the camera's exposure meter or whether I should use an external one?

[@roiloubia4483]

You can use the in camera light meter, if, big if, you know that your in camera meter is calibrated, and you know well how to expose your subject, with the different mode of metering (evaluative, partial, center weighted, spot metering). Best is to run some tests. Personally I use an external Spotmeter, and meter for the highlight when using slide film. I meter a white area where I want some details and texture, then I open up by 1 2/3 to 2 stops. Example: When metering the white area, my meter indicate 1/125 sec at f8. If I shoot at these settings, my white area will be middle gray. To make that area white, I open up by 2 stops, means I will shoot at 1/30 sec at f8. For Negative film it is the inverse. I meter a shadow area where I want to retain some details and texture. Lets say my meter indicate 1/60 sec at f8. If I shoot at these settings, this shadow area will be rendered also as mid gray So I need to close by 2 stops, therefore I will shoot at 1/225 sec at f8. Voila. The diynamic range of slide film like Velvia or Provia is about 4 1/2 to 5 stop maximum. If the diynamic range of your slide film exceeds the dynamicof your slide film, then three solutions: 1. You wait till the lighting conditions changes 2. You call it quit, and go have a beer and watch your foot ball game. 2. Tone down the highlight area with a Neutral Graduated Density filter, if you have the right one, if possible, as the separation between the sky and the darker foreground must be kind of linear, like the horizon line. It all depends on what you have in your background. The last resort would be to meter for the highlight, as stated above, and let the shadows fall where they fall, then recover the list details in the shadows in post-processing (adobe Lightroom or other software). Or, or, come back to e same location in another clement day and time..if you decide to call it quit, don't just pack up and leave. Wait a little bit, things can change, if not take some time to absorbe the scenery, relax, meditate, and think on how you're going to shoot that scenery another time. Doing so, even if you didn't had the shot in your film, but you already have it in your mind. Personally,I do a lot of homework before going out doing my landscape photography.. Don't waist film, doing bracketing, too expensive. Good luck with your film photography, and forget Digital. 😉😉😉😉, Just kidding..

[@mcb187]

I live not so far away from a lab with E-6, so maybe I’ll give this a try! Then again, I’ve been told you can dev E-6 with C-41. You just need a B&W developer step and second exposure before you develop in C-41. So maybe not so bad.

[@billkerr7523]

Worth mentioning that in the UK Kodachrome was almost NEVER sold without Kodak processing included whdn bought.( after the abolition of retail price maintence the Gratispool company of Glasgow blught into the Kodak licence to process Kodachrome.They didnt do it for long! many different baths all at VERY exacting temperatures meant it was VERY difficult to keep under control.It was probably the best colour slide film on the market, but oh the difficulty in processing...!!!!!!

Awesome look! I love the posters man. I screwed up two rolls of Ektachrome. One roll I only got six frames back as I shot in such low light that the emulsion didn’t trigger. Got some cool shots of the Florida beach though on the other frames. Definitely a challenging stock to shoot. As far as topics could you may go over Standard 8mm film and cameras a little bit more in detail?. I think you have covered it before but I’m interested to know more about shooting it as I have found a supplier (I think the only supplier) that manufactures standard 8mm and that company is Fomapan. I have a Bell and Howell Sundial (1954) standard 8 camera as well. Operates very similar to a spring loaded Bolex and came with a very bizarre light meter and an old school mail ad for Kodachrome. I’ll post it on my channel when I get time. Also, another topic idea...how to develop super 8 film at home would be a cool topic? . I recently bought two six packs of Dogfishhead Super Eight beer which also serves as a film developer. There’s a video the Eastman Kodak Museum did on it but they did not give any formulas or quantities?

[@morna45]

Back when Kodachrome was "cheap", I used to bracket my images on an AE-1 Canon. So, one of the three came out great, and I used to save the mounts on the others and toss the photo. That's when you could afford to experiment. Now, not so much, although in theory, bracketing would still work. What do you think?

[@AnalogResurgence]

Kodak Vericolor is a color negative film, not a slide film. C41 is the color negative chemical process (slide film is a different process, usually E6). Vericolor is an older Kodak film and it’s likely from the 90s or older, you can find lots of info online for it. 100ft rolls are for use in a film bulk loader which you can use with reloadable 35mm film canisters in order to cut down small rolls to shoot. Get yourself a bulk loader and some reloadable canisters and you can turn the big roll into small ones!

If your light meter and optics work correctly*, I think it should be at least acceptable. Just point the light meter on the brightest object on your image (or something in the middle). From my little experience with Provia 100F, small underexposures work better than small overexposures. Personally I'd be scared of putting anything better than Fomapan or ColorPlus 200 into point-and-shoot, but that's just me. * - I have used lens having a problem with aperture, which caused a lot of frames getting overexposed, one even completely blanked, that's why I mentioned it. Worth checking out before first color reversal roll as they don't forgive anything.

To be frank, not really. In ideal, overcast conditions it works, but with no manual exposure control, the smaller latitude can be a problem.

I haven't been able to find X-Pro slide film anywhere. Can you tell me where can I buy some?

How do I shoot expired slide film?

10:55 Do you know with what slide film and camera did your grandfather shoot?

[@AnalogResurgence]

Not sure of the camera, but the film was a mix of Kodachrome and Ektachrome from the 60's-80's!
