Hey Timothy, nicely done, thank you for sharing. I just picked up the pro sd recently and love it so far. Could you explain the shooting process with using the cable release? I’ve heard people using the cable in the mirror lock on the lens and I’ve seen others use it the standard way (shutter button). I’ve also seen it done with 2 shutter cables. If you could explain the shooting process I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you

Hey Kenneth. Using the cable release in mirror lock up mode ensures virtually no camera shake from mirror slap, which can be an issue at slower shutter speeds.

Hi Tim. Thanks for the great video! Really enjoyable to watch and learn from! I wanted to ask your opinion re: the Mamiya RB67 Pro SD. I’m on the verge of buying one with a 90mm 3.5 KL lens. It’s between that or the Mamiya 7. The RB67 Pro SD sounds to be amazing and amazingly versatile for various types/genres of photography, and as good, of not a better, camera than the Mamiya 7, and is (at least) half the price of the Mamiya 7! But I’m really bugged by every review I read that mentions it’s weight. My plan is to use it mainly out and about, even on travel trips (as in your video here). How heavy is it?! Do you find it easy to carry around, hand-hold etc.? Or is it so heavy that it’s not comfortable/easy to use? Do you think it’s be easy to use the RB in a kind of street photo scenario (requiring faster image capture etc).? I’m trying to judge whether it’s worth spending double for a potentially slightly worse camera in the Mamiya 7 just to be able to carry it around my neck like a 35mm and also shoot more rapidly like a 35mm. I’d be grateful for any advice. Many thanks Tim. Also, if anyone from the community also has any advice, I’d appreciate it. Many thanks.

Hi thanks for your question and apologies for taking so long to get to you. The RB67 is a heavy beast of a camera and this makes it very cumbersome and slow to work with, but if you can get past that, it does have more precision than the 7 in terms of framing, since the 7 is a rangefinder and the RB67 is an SLR, so you are looking through the taking lens and can accurately frame your composition. With that said, the Mamiya 7 is a lot more portable and can easily hang around your neck and is much more practical to be walking around with for fast shots, which I feel are virtually impossible on the RB67. So it's about what you want to get out of it really. Oh, and the 7 requires batteries I believe, for the internal light meter, so it's not fully mechanical like the RB67. Hope this helps.

Hey Timothy, really lovely images that made me think of going to Lanzarote when all the corona time is behind us. I liked the colors and the way you can create those landscape images with the notch of simplicity. The wind seems to be very strong there at all time. My last trips to Austria, Croatia and Lofoten werent that windy at all. But some scenereys that I shot on the lofoten (kzbin.info/www/bejne/f2ape6Bmn5mLfLs) reminded me at the area on Lanzarote but only with not that much water around. The mountainranges in your images looked lovely and the color is the final note. keep up the nice work. stay healthy

Do you notice any appreciable difference between the KL lens and the older iterations? I have an original 180 and a 90 C and just wondering if the KL's are worth the money. One thing that really intrigues me about the KLs is the more traditional "Bulb" setting. When you release the cable release, it actually closes the shutter, correct? Having to cover the lens and hit the mirror cocking lever is a minor inconvenience, but an inconvenience nonetheless.

Hi Aether. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. I'm glad you liked the video. I would love to give 4x5 a go eventually. But since I'm relatively new to film, I opted to start with medium format 6x7, since you still get a decently high quality negative, with significantly lower cost per shutter press. I definitely think large format is something I will lead up to though. Thanks again and have a great week.

Hello, from a fellow RB67(pro sd) user. I really enjoyed the video and your photography; that was inspiring! I have a question regarding using the RB67 with a tripod, as I have been using mine purely handheld. Do you find a ballhead to be suitable for the RB, or would you recommend other types of tripodhead instead? Looking forward to seeing more of your work.
@TimothyMcGawUK
@TimothyMcGawUK 4 жыл бұрын
Hi Chalat. Thank you ever so much for stopping by and I hope you are doing well. My experience with the RB67 so far has been that I get the sharpest images when using a tripod. I would always use one for landscapes at least, because often with landscapes a slower shutter is required because the light can be quite low when it's at it's most ideal and obviously that way you can compose your image in a very precise way. I have used the camera handheld in midday light when doing portraits outdoors, with a faster shutter. Although when looking at the images with a critical eye, I would say there was still a bit of subtle camera shake or mirror slap present in the images. The camera, for me, using the 90mm lens at least, produces the sharpest images when in mirror up mode. Because that way there's zero mirror slap and the leaf shutter just opens and closes with no vibration at all. Personally I find the ball head to work quite well for me, although perhaps not completely perfect for landscapes. There can be times where you want to make tiny micro adjustments in the composition and in those situations I imagine that a head that has more individual controls would be better. With that said, the Manfrotto ball head I use can be set to give quite fine control and there's also something to be said for just loosening the head and grabbing the camera and pointing it freely. Tastes may vary. But in the end I have always been able to get my shot framed exactly as I like and it's the end result that counts. Hope I provided some insight for you on this. Let me know if there's anything else you want to know and please stay tuned to the channel. I will be posting more videos in the near future about the RB, film photography and everything that goes along with that. Have a great week. Tim.

Hey Maurice. Thanks for the comment. Apologies for taking a while to get back to you. I am using the Manfrotto XPRO Magnesium Ball Head. I like it quite a bit as it's solid enough to take the weight of the RB67 although I think I would probably consider upgrading to a geared head for landscape work, just for the extra precision with composition. But this is definitely fit for purpose. Have a great weekend!

Some awesome long exposures in there!! I was wondering, when you captured the sea and that cliff at "peak redness", did you use your spot meter on the sky, cliff or sea? Or none of those! Great stuff anyways!
@TimothyMcGawUK
@TimothyMcGawUK 4 жыл бұрын
Hi Max. Thanks for dropping by and thanks also for commenting, I really appreciate it. As far as my metering on that scene goes, as well as most other scenes in here, I took a bunch of different readings with my spot meter and rated my film at box speed. Although what I will say is that in almost all scenarios, I tended to expose for the darker areas of the scene, as I know that colour negative handles overexposure much better than underexposure. I think if I had been shooting slides, which have a much narrower dynamic range, I would have been a bit more precise. But the nice thing about colour neg is that more light usually tends to be a good thing. So in most cases I just exposed for the shadows and I was golden. The Kodak pro film stocks have a lot of leeway on the overexposure side of things. So feeding them light is generally advised. As far as metering goes when you need to be more precise. I would try and remember how many stops of dynamic range your film realistically has, use a spot meter throughout the scene, then try and make an informed decision about where you want certain parts of your exposure to fall within that range.

@TimothyMcGawUK
@TimothyMcGawUK 4 жыл бұрын
With colour negative I've found its best to err on the side of overexposure, so I tend to rate the film a stop slower to make sure I get a nice negative. I generally take a few meter readings with a spot meter and average them out. You get a lot of dynamic range with a film like Kodak portra, so as long as you let a generous amount of light through, you will retain good highlight detail.

Timothy, I own the same camera as you and have a potentially weird question: when shooting anything that is 5-10m away from you OR MORE, do you find yourself often (like, always) focusing to infinity / drawing the bellows all the way in? I found that, if I'm not shooting portraits or something that is basically in front of me, I almost always have to focus all the way to infinity. And at f11, f16, f22 the infinity on mz negatives is... eh, not really crisp. I'm trying to pinpoint if the problem is my technique, the camera or the film itself. Thanks :)
@TimothyMcGawUK
@TimothyMcGawUK Жыл бұрын
Hey Alex. Sorry I must have missed this. What I have found is, at least with the 90mm lens. It's not quite infinity that I need to focus to to get the sharpness in the distance. It's like slightly off from the infinity mark usually for me. If you look closely through the viewfinder with the magnifier opened up so you can see the detail, you can do some micro adjustments to get the focus razor sharp. I then find it really helps with that lens to ensure the floating element matches up to what the guide on the bellows says, to really dial it in.

This is a Great Camera, I purchased it + 10 years ago when many Hyper-People were dumping their Film Photography Gear, this camera came as New, I purchased 5 lenses from 50 mm up-to 250 mm, I was able to get several Backs, some were New, however the most interesting part is the the Prism-View Finder, it is so rare that no one has ever explained it. This Prism-View Finder came as New, this is the only gear which needs an obscure battery 4L R44 6V, I will be ordering it soon. Mamiya was never good in producing any good manuals, of course one should not expect from them to explain this View-Finder, I have spent some time with it & I am hoping to use it in near future. One thing Folks, make sure you play with weights because you will need some strength to carry + 15 pound gear (you cannot use flimsy tripods). Mamiya RB 67 SD Pro is a Classic right there with Hasselblad 500 C, Pentax 6x7, and Nikon F; these are indestructable jewels. I wish you can try all of them.

I measure the difference between the dark areas and the light areas, figure out how I want the values to fall, and then typically aim to slightly over-expose based on that. Since with colour negative, it's far better to overexpose than underexpose.

Hi Kuba. Thanks for commenting. I shot the whole trip with the 90mm K/L. Nice and sharp and at that focal length all I had to do was make sure the lens was set to infinity.

Beautiful location. You seem to be triggering the mirror and then the lens shutter. Do you recommend doing this all the time?

Hi Jay. Thanks for checking out the video. I did trigger the mirror then fire off the shutter in mirror up mode, yes. This is the best way to get a sharp image when doing slightly longer exposures in low light, such as when doing landscapes. Since this means there will be zero vibration from the mirror slap and the only movement will happen in the tiny leaf shutter, which is so light that it can't shake the body at all really. If you have a super fast shutter speed, such as in bright sunlight or strong strobes, then you don't really need to do it this way in my opinion. Since the fast shutter speed will freeze any motion. But let's say speeds slower than maybe 100th of a second, then I would advise to really think about doing it this way. The mirror in this beast of a camera is pretty big and so it does cause some vibration of course when it fires. Hope this helps. Have a great week.

Thanks Tim, it helps. Is the lens shutter cable special for the rb? I just picked one up.

Timothy McGaw hey tim, good tips. I would like to try shooting portraits in low light situation with mirror up if speed below 1/100th. Thanks

Hi Yuan. Thanks an awful lot for stopping by. I'm currently using a Manfrotto 055, coupled with a Manfrotto Xpro ball head. I use this for pretty much all landscape and even portrait scenarios with the Mamiya currently. Have a wonderful weekend.

Hi Vu. I found that it was best to put the camera into mirror up mode, but screwing the cable release into the MU socket on the lens, then firing the mirror separately on the body before firing the shutter, as this reduced camera shake. Hope this helps.
