Leica M3 + Agfa APX

[@lecheaconnaranjas]

It's funny how you take the photos. It seems you think, "shoot and run away as fast as I can before they kill me" hahahaha. Great Job! :D

[@christinacare6218]

Dude, you got balls! I'm always too shy to take photos of people like that haha... I love you and Fran, you're both so lovely.

[@decaffashion]

This is amazing, Ed! The pictures turned out so beautifully, well done!

[@jamesanayamusic9123]

Which lens are you using here and which do you prefer over all for the M3? Thanks!

[@mjfalcon007]

Great video and fantastic shots. I like your style! I have been thinking of getting into film and am currently lusting over the M3. Subscribed!

[@Livingandshowing]

Ed me encantaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa tu trabajo!! Y estoy demasiado emocionada por tu canal!! gracias a ti ahora se como se ven las cosas a través de una Leica. POR FAVOR cuando vengan a Chile imparte un curso nos harás un favor a muchos!! Ahora no me perderé ninguno de tus vídeos!! Saludos!!!

[@eljovenplinio]

cada vez que veo una de tus fotos se me ocurre una historia.. tienes la capacidad de encontrar el momento preciso. Si el hombre del banco del 4:48 no se hubiese girado en ese instante, el mensaje habría sido otro totalmente distinto. tu relación con lo que fotografías queda también reflejada en la imagen, y eso es lo que me gusta tanto!

[@ChloePaws]

I love this series! It's really original and I love seeing all the photos instead of just what you want us to see, even though all your photos are fantastic. Keep it up! I'd love to see an episode with a FED or Zorki some time, that'd be cool.

[@mamiyapress]

People sometimes say " oh, you must have a great camera " what i would say about you is that " you must have great knees "

You are of those guys one wishes one met one day... Love your videos man!

[@EvelynCrash]

me encanta lo espontaneo que es fotografiar a un extraño, preciosas fotografías Ed.

[@brooksinae]

Ah! This is so inspiring! Thanks for the video and your work , Ed!

[@JoeLopez]

Some awesome shots in that set, nice work. Don't forget to tip those artist that you take pictures of in a situation like that 😁

[@divinera_]

This is awesome :) What beautiful photography! I love some of the reactions of the people!

[@retrofocusing]

The shot at 4:09 is gorgeous. Did you use any filters on your lenses?

[@theLupyo]

you can change the camera lens when you have a film in ??

[@irsan949]

At 3:51 .. what do you think happened on the tree (left side of the picture). It shows something like halo effect.

[@deemdoubleu]

Did you use a filter on the lens? Doesn't look like it on the video but you get good definition in the sky (something I find difficult to get usually).

[@edpavez]

No, I process the negatives with my computer. That's how I recovered the sky. When I print my pictures in paper with an enlarger, I also expose some zones more than others. The negatives are just negatives (in my opinion) they need to be processed, just like RAW digital files. :)

[@deemdoubleu]

Ah, that makes sense.

[@dorisz2074]

I love the video and the concept! So much inspiration. What kind of camera do you use to film the video? Love the effect :) Thank you!

[@LeoSin913]

Love these kind of video a lot. Keep going bro

[@billpickle2875]

Even after all these videos... This one is one of my favs.

[@pyotrlye]

Awesome video! The shots you took look better than a lot of pro photographers out there using high end cameras!

[@ProSimex84]

ThatPyotr it's a leica M3, it doesn't really get more high end then that!

[@edpavez]

it depends on what you call "high end" and in what area you conceive such concept... the Leica M3 is not the most expensive nor high end Leica 135 camera at all: a M6 or an MP will cost three or five times as much. if our idea of "high end" includes digital and film 135 cameras, an M3 costs less than 1/4 of an advanced prosumer camera (say, for example, a 5DmkIV). if we think that "high end"includes digital and film cameras in all formats, it costs less than 1/12 than a digital Hasselblad...!

[@ProSimex84]

EduardoPavezGoye well yes, you can always get bigger and more expensive. You can consider that the M6 or MP are just slightly different M3s, they have a meter sure, but so what? And cost isn't everything, sure you can spend big money on a digital body, but it won't have nearly the lifespan of your beautiful camera. I would say it's ability to create beautiful images over the span of a few lifetimes with minimal upkeep is what makes it "high end". Thanks for the videos, I really enjoy them.

[@edpavez]

ProSimex84 yeah, I get what you are saying. that's what I mean: "high end" is quite an abstract notion, and if we narrow it down to something more concrete, we get very different answers. :) thanks for watching, man!

[@markharris5771]

EduardoPavezGoye To me "high end" means the proven pedigree of the camera and if Henri Cartier-Bresson used a M3 then it is high end. But it isn't the camera that takes the shots, it's the photographer. The camera is purely a piece of engineering (but a superb piece in this case) that fine tunes the image.

[@diogovilhena3983]

i have this kit ! just need to try out the Agfa, bought it today :D ! i have noticed that is the same color on the emulsion side as the tri-x unlike the kodak TMAX. nice video keep going!

[@FixTwisterFader]

How did you develop that film? The tonality is really odd for apx (look at the blacks) or the scans are just messed up (?) Secondly, it seams grainy but that might be just in the yt video. Good video anyway, let us all cultivate film :)

[@MarinaStendhal]

I especially like the shoot in minute 3:00. Thanks for making these type of videos!

[@thegilbz]

Thank you. Beautiful video. It seemed fun.

[@AdamLeeGuitarist]

Beautiful video, beautiful camera! Loved it! It appears as though your camera needs a service, though. The leading shutter curtain looks like it's moving too slow, and some of your images have a dark zone on the left side. A quick calibration by a tech, and this camera will perform like new. The M3 has to be one of the most beautifully designed machines in history. Again, amazing, inspiring video!

[@edpavez]

+Adam Lee yes. it was working fine before, but this roll showed me problems at 1/1000 so in all my other videos I'm just using it at 1/500 tops, until I can save enough to send it for a repair. ;)

[@DecemberSounds]

Well, wow. These shots look far sharper, much less grainy, and overall better than the Canon A1 you featured. Is that down only to the camera? Should I just return the Canon and save for a Leica?

[@DecemberSounds]

+December Sounds Lol never mind, just saw the actual cost. The Leica system is too pricey for me.

[@edpavez]

+December Sounds it's mostly the processing. you can get almost the same results with the Canon!

[@DecemberSounds]

Wow, okay - awesome! I can't wait to break it out and starting shooting.

[@baladino]

Ed, did you sell your M3 in the end ?

[@N199UA]

Nice one. Would have loved to hear more about your experience with the M3, like advantages and disadvantages.

[@edpavez]

+N199UA oh, I'll do a review of the M3, but that's not for this videos, where the main focus is going out and just having fun shooting. :)

[@TheKokedread]

Buenisimo video... Leica lovers, cual es la medida del segundo lente que utilizaste?

[@jsshayes1]

What is the size of lens? 35? The photos composition and contrast look fantastic!

[@edpavez]

+jesse hayes 28 summicron and 50 summilux!

[@jsshayes1]

So when out shooting one roll of film you will change the lens depending on the situation? Sorry I know it sounds like a dumb question. I just got a M2 and a Canon 50mm 1.4 and thinking about what other size I should look into. Thanks Eduardo!

[@edpavez]

jesse hayes don't worry. I'm glad to help out! this is the only video that I changed lenses. usually I just use one, and that one is usually a 50mm, because is my favorite. If I can give you an honest piece of advice: don't buy another lens until you feel the absolute need to do it. for example, if you start to realize you always back away from your subjects and decide that you want a wider lens (maybe a 24mm or a 17mm), or you discover that you like taking portraits with shallow depth of field, and you start looking for a nice 85mm or a 135mm. it really depends on what you want to shoot and how you want to shoot it. but for now, if I were you, I would just stick to the 50mm and master it before thinking about buying more lenses. I used exclusively a 50mm for street photography for three years straight. buying stuff is addictive (you always want more) and takes time from shooting, which is what really matters. so, in short: grab that 50mm and shoot like there's no tomorrow. :)

[@jsshayes1]

+EduardoPavezGoye That all really makes sense. I will definitely take your advice and stick to the 50mm I just got. Just found you on instagram as well and followed you. I am loving the most recent B&W photos you have posted on there. They have an awesome mood and vibe to them. Thanks again man!

[@edpavez]

jesse hayes no worries! rock that 50mm and post the results! :D

[@mamiyapress]

Love your videos, keep posting.

[@lesiag5146]

What app do you use on your phone for metering?

[@Submisfit138]

been following for quite sometime. I was wondering what lenses are you using for this video ?

[@edpavez]

a 50 summilux and 28 summicron.

[@troyoutlaw8908]

@@edpavez What external view finder is that? Will it provide all those frame lines, 28mm including 35mm? Thanks in advance.

[@gregmcknight5183]

you look so happy

[@mamiyapress]

I developed a roll of Agfa APX 100 today in Rodinal Special 1+30, looks good if a little contrasty, how did you develop yours?

[@edpavez]

+mamiyapress I always go D-76, stock. I quite like it.

[@ezegoe]

cual es la app que usas como fotómetro? la necesitaría también

[@lks6825]

cool video man I really like your style, just add a bit more dialog as you shoot so we can sort have have a bit more understanding how it is like shooting the various different cameras you use

[@edmundogranados]

I have a LEICA M3 with light meter working and 2 lenses can you tell me if worth something because I saw wide prices on those lens maybe because the serial number affect the price the mumber inside of the lens is that a serial # ? I HAVE: Ernst Leitz GmbH Wetzlar Summicron f=5cm 1:2 Nr. 1328084 AND ALSO Ernst Leitz GmbH Wetzlar ELMAR F=9CM 1:4 Nr. 1353131

[@edpavez]

+Edmundo Granados I'm not an expert on pricing at all, but from what I know, a Leica M3 double stroke goes for $1000 if the viewfinder is bright and it's just been CLA'd... but it can cost more if it's a single stroke, or some rare model. I don't know much about lenses pricing on Leica (there are many versions for each lens), but The Elmar 90/4 usually sells for about 200 and, according to ebay, the Summicron f=5cm 1:2 goes from 600 to 1300. Hope this helps!

[@marvuser1367]

Is leica m3 still available?

It's called a rangefinder camera. You have to change yuor photo developer for another shop.

[@lycheryach]

looks like something wrong with your shutter. the left side of the images are always darker.

[@edpavez]

Yep. In this roll my M3 showed this issue for the first time. At 1/1000 the shutter doesn't work properly. At the other speeds work perfectly.

[@YassefSelman]
