Seeing Caleb be touchy-feely with someone other than Jason feels like adultery.

[@antlerbraum2881]

Is Jason not good enough for him anymore??😢

[@aaronwarren7626]

Everyone who sees this. Listen to Native Hawaiians when they say to not vacation/live on their islands🤟🏽

[@neerajnongmaithem392]

​@@aaronwarren7626 more then 20% of Hawaii's economy was generated due to tourism. It also employees thousands of natives. No one coming will do the island more harm then good at the current phase of time. Its population is too big to be self sustainable at the moment.

[@WestonWoodfin]

The quick edit of the shark underwater when you jumped in made me laugh out loud while working in a quiet public space. So thanks for that.

[@aaronmassarano8220]

same, lol

[@developingtank]

I am here to share that I had the same experience and truly loved it.

[@ChristianneYu96]

I was laughing so hard with food on my mouth trying not to choke

[@wilferrero244]

Gave me a fuckin heart attack lol

[@liamteh3rd]

Dude I’m fucking crying laughing at this

[@joshuayjbird]

As someone who knows an unnecessary amount about Aerochrome and infrared photography, here are my guesses on what the secret aerochrome recreation is: (1) A real infrared film stock - Unlikely since making new colour film emulsions is next to impossible. Only kodak really makes colour film anymore and their production line now uses IR cameras so it's impossible for them to make IR film. (2) An infrared trichrome with B&W IR film - This leaves trichrome artefacts which aren't seen in these photos so this can't be it. It's a cool way to recreate Aerochrome with film tho (3) A full spectrum digital camera with something like a Kolari Chrome filter - The most likely option, and the most practical way to take IR photos nowadays. It uses a digital camera with its IR cut filter removed and replaced with a special filter. Some post processing can then be done to swap the colour channels appropriately to give an authentic Aerochrome look.

[@elias_martinelli]

i loved your video on recreating aerochrome - i agree with your third guess; a full spectrum digital file with really convincing editing to make it look like film

[@hankry2798]

Note the lack of shutter sound when he shows those photos and the increased dynamic range compared to standard expired aerochrome.

[@ChillmyLP]

I doubt it has anything to do with ir. In some shoots with water you see reflections. Water doesnt reflekt ir

[@hankry2798]

If this is the case I need Jason to make a video shooting it in black and white and figure out what pro mist I need to get and HIE simulation.

[@joshuayjbird]

@@ChillmyLP water actually does reflect a bit of ir, if you look up other aerochrome photos you'll see a reflection of the trees in the water. the images look too authentic to be a simple colour swap (ie. green to pink), because that method wouldn't make skin yellow and turns things pink that shouldn't be

[@JoshSherrill]

Nearly had a heart attack at 8:40

[@Timeless-Photography]

Same lmao

[@DGJTvlogs]

Another long video let's gooo

[@izzyenri1723]

Long vids ftw 🙌🏼🔥

[@sarova2000]

I just came here to say that your color grading on these videos looks great, it would be interesting a video on your process

[@the_washington_monument_am9714]

Not gonna lie this video makes me feel so darn warm and comfy inside. None of that gosh-darned thinkin', just good times and good vibes under the sun. Probably under the influence as well.

[@CristianGeelen]

That shark frame was epic. ❤

[@garrettmain3712]

Wow…taking a plane and staying in a hotel with your loved ones instead of rowing a boat alone to a used dirty tent like a true analog photographer. You’ve changed. Who am I watching, Casey Neistat?

[@alexsavage-tubbs437]

Every time Jason shoots Aerochrome I’m like “well I guess I’m buying more prints”

[@TheDomis4]

so wholesome. Theres even a little dolphin at 8:41 🥰 20:20 is also my favorite shot.

[@Erik_Watkins]

Definitely, I think it's my favourite of his aerocgrome as well

[@jonathans.9372]

that ain't no dolphin at 8:41

[@Hubcityhap]

You killed aerochrome on the trip. The pictures are fantastic. The retrochorme filled out the trip nicely. You picked the right stock for the right moments. Great video Jason. I hope Baxter didn't miss y'all too much.

[@Shmooexe3440]

Incredible work as always Jason, trully inspiring your work is, I hope we get to learn more about the secret aerochrome one day

[@zzAx3zz]

Can't wait for the reveal, it seemed like every time an aerochrome shot appeared, we didn't get the shutter for the camera that took the pic like we got for most of the shots done on the Contax. I wonder what he's shooting the secret aerochrome with

[@Shmooexe3440]

@@zzAx3zz I think an awful lot of us are anticipating it. And that is very true!

[@AeromaticXD]

@@zzAx3zz I think it might be with his digital camera tbh

[@zzAx3zz]

@@AeromaticXD was thinking something similar, maybe IR color photography and messing with filters?

[@markgoostree6334]

The best part about the abandon hotel was the minimal graffiti paint. You were able to get some of the best shots because of that. cool. All in all, a good video of what looked like a good trip.

[@t_mcb_1342]

the beach photos with persons are dope. the interior photos of the boat and hotel are dope. you're continued obsession with hot pink in photographs eludes understanding.

[@corygraham601]

That first coco palm aerochrome shot is everything! ❤

[@pepkarsten]

The drowning man + the titanic scene + the shark + the aerochrome shots = my favorite video

[@zacgarbos1833]

i love the Pali lookout. always wicked windy and a gorgeous view(you missed the dope shot with the tunnel in the hillside to your right)

[@OneMonthTwoCameras]

4:46 - ❤‍🔥Hopper vibes. A+. Also, YOUR MOM!!

[@InCartersEyes]

gonna need you to give us that Aerochrome dupe right now Jason... you mentioned it in the last video, and now this one..

[@emmanuellehuu8818]

2:51 that's one hell of a sick photo, the attention to detail is so good

[@indosilver123]

Dude, the shot at 22:37 looking out the shutters of the abandoned hotel... so nuts!!!!

[@KK4CNM]

They are loading the last of the retro chrome at fpp so you'd best get some quick if you want any and stick it in the freezer.

[@LionFeldman]

Thanks to your videos all I see now are vibrant pinks and deep blues

[@9uuuu]

the genuine spike of dopamine i felt when this popped up in me feed

[@CoreyView]

I have to admit the "Caleb's legs in the foreground" made me laugh

[@arenjake7485]

So much love for the 4:3 aspect ratio

[@jolymusique]

First of all, I’m a huge fan of your videos and photography. Your work is truly inspiring. I’m sure you answered this question a million times but what luts or coloration are you using for your videos?

[@colinforber8504]

Jason's lobster fisherman cosplay is eerily good.

[@Sam-em1ic]

This was fun to watch. I wish I had friends

[@PhilippHofmann28]

Dude, this was a absolut awesome video. Besides the mostly great/wonderful pictures you shot I saw an Great friendship and partnership in this video. This is also a memory for you guys. Made me really happy to watch. Thank you guys

[@ronniea.4830]

Love Love Kauai, Finally, Monica gets a decent vacation ❤

[@ednixon]

Wow Jason, that was fabulous! When you’re ready to burn your flight credit on the return trip to Kawai I’ve got a cabin. We can stay at free up at Koke State park four bedroom two bath.

[@Enzo_hamma]

nice to see you make it to the islands!! love the vid man!

[@BrilliantBenGaming]

What a visual treat - my cold winter heart craves some warm sun and sandy beaches

[@Klektic]

missing a #kodakbringbackaerochrome but i guess you have some aerochrome (or equiv) now so mission accomplished great collection of t2 photos. some of the 800t ones look sick

[@Cookerab]

Man I just ordered some 800T for 35mm and 120. Cant wait. Great pics as usual. Best deadpan on youtube.

[@charliesands7]

The cinestill looks so good man

[@bryanbernart]

Love the Chrono Trigger "Secret of the Forest" theme around 3:20

[@Hotsumafanyirui]

Love the humor and great video. Wondering if you are going to roll out an episode about how you edit the color of your video, are you using Davinci？ The film feeling is nice.🤓

[@pdk]

I feel like i just watched a video of somebody walking around in my backyard. The place where the boat from Koolina took you is Electric Beach. Wife and I go there sometimes multiple times a week to watch the sun set.

[@somehowimanage3902]

I enjoy the weird video crop format. Reminds me of the good old tube tv days.

[@kennethservida6144]

Just skimmed the entire video to find the part where Jason is gonna drink a Flamin' Hot Mountain Dew for the sake of Kodak returning Aerochrome. But where is it?! Or is it? 🤔

[@Shrek_Has_Covid19]

he had to sell it on ebay to afford the roll of aerochrome he destroyed

[@jeffffff]

never thought id see jason listening to yung lean but now that I have it makes sense.

[@KevinChaires]

Loved how the sea looks in Aerochrome! Also lol @ that shark cut

[@JovasJpg]

Such inspiring work and amazing narration! Classic yet again

[@christina_21700]

Those photos were dynamite! 😍😍😍

[@tomjanowski8584]

You had that Weekend at Bernie's look in that one shot on the boat.

[@PickledAmericano]

My thought exactly lol

[@enduroman2834]

Sold my Contax T3 a few months back. I havent missed it since, but I loved shooting Cinestill with it.

[@mjodr]

I don't know where you got your humor style from, but I fucking love it.

[@fustigate314159]

Always nice photos, but this vid had so many especially nice ones! I guess really great locations partly helped that.

[@17Swarley17]

is nobody going to mention the shark at 8:41? well done sir!

[@maartenph0tomic]

This video gave me heartburn

[@goodscott1304]

The abandoned hotel you filmed was, Elvis favorite hotel when he visited Kauai ( coco palms)

[@franzjosefstakes]

8:40 haha took me a hot second to remember jason is a vfx editor

[@MessyBunGarage]

I just showed your website to my mom, and she likes your work (not as much as me) but congratulations, my mom Teresa likes your work.

[@doriangasseling]

Video's are really getting great man. Well done. Also, for some reason I thought you were going to throw the Contax in the pool haha.

[@willmcguire5099]

Wow, I live in Kailua, and you didn't stop by! You could have tried out my new vest pocket Kodak, oh yeah - bring some 127 film. That view from the Pali is pretty dope.Your pics are amazing, looks like you all had fun. Word to the wise, don't stay out shooting street in Waikiki too late at night, or walk around at 2AM with the leica in one hand and the 6x7 in the other as a blunt force object.

[@muertomaniaco]

Your videos are so entertaining, keep it up!

[@ramyzhang]

so gorgeous from the very first opening shot. you capture quiet moments so well! loved this video!!!

[@tylerclark7737]

Was just in Waikiki for a job and recognize so many of these spots. Shot so much 500T and 120mm

[@RealSebus]

Guys we have a crisis. In the Mamiyamigos podcast Jason laughs, now he is happy with his work? The world is ending.

I can't watch yet, but I instantly thought aerochrome Hawaii is going to be awesome.

[@troywayneworks]

Wait...Calebs legs?

[@jasongold6751]

I used Aerochrome when it was still fresh dated! I hated the results, I also used real BW colour filters. I was banned from the top process lab, because they ignored the RED warning I enclosed. My films great! Everybody after had Rem coating added! I looked forward to your red/crimson/magentaAerochrome way back. I looked forward to your red/ magenta/ crimson hues! Hawaii deserves it!

[@dustyunderscore6085]

At 18:15 Jason looks like a younger Weekend at Bernie’s. 😅😂😂😂

[@michaelhaarstad2130]

Oh boy, those toilet colors match up pretty good. If you make that print available it may make a nice diptych by my throne.

[@eliagard3437]

Not a WORD about that literally PERFECT shot at 21:19???

Cowabunga, would be cool if youd check on the pentax LX. Such amazing potential. Great features and price, and a great lightmeter. Often so overlooked. Its a hidden gem. Its totally worth a look.

so for the coast to coast video and this video there was no shutter sound when the "aerochrome" pictures came up 🤔 am i overthinking this or is something up?
