Lomography 800 | Best Film Ever?

[@cdl0]

This is another excellent video from *theoldcameraguy.* The whole thing worked really well: we got good pictures, good film, good colours, and good commentary.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thank You.

[@joemihaly]

Another superb video from The OCG. Truly one of the best in the business and SO underrated. You should have at least 10k subscribers, keep up the good work!!

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks JMan!

[@ThisIsOurRetirement]

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks- stay safe and have a great weekend!

Wow wow wow! 60's vibes, hippy USA! Dave it is possible to be our loved Vision 500T?

[@theoldcameraguy]

I don’t think it’s Vision film, but it is pretty groovy!

[@wojtekscibor]

that's a good test! @2:21 and @3:22 are my favorites, also interesting shot you got @4:06 with gravel and clothes kinda matching :) thanks for sharing!

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks Wojtek!

[@Raychristofer]

Great shots man, small town America is the best place to shoot film. Ironically I had 4rolls of 800 last year and sent 3 to other KZbinrs to collaborate to do a review and none of the three got back with me with their images to share. Let's just say I'm not doing that again but I had great results also. Couldn't make out what the donor stock is but yes the grain is fine for an 800.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks - I can’t believe you got ghosted on those 800 rolls. I would never do you like that man haha. No joke, this Lomo 800 is legit.

[@nicktauro3201]

Great results! I have 6 rolls in my fridge. Also, props to your son for combining stripes and plaid. ;-)

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks - I only had a 3 pack, but would definitely like to pick up some more. My son definitely has his own sense of style haha

[@srad.]

felt that intro 😂😂😂 i almost always try things later than everyone else lol

[@SweetLouPhotography]

Dude those colors. I love Lomo CN800, it's my favorite for shooting live music (if that ever happens again lol) That diner shot at 2:42 rocks!!

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks man - Yeah I gotta get my hands on more of this stuff

[@nealfowler4819]

Love the look of this, may try one of those disposables I see the underwater one uses 800. Another great video 🙂

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks Neal - if you get one of those underwater disposables, let me know how things turn out

[@behindeachfilmgrain]

I need to try this for myself Dave! Great looking results too my friend. Love the tones you were able to capture in that town.

[@Bigfarmer8]

I really enjoyed this. Some good lessons and photos in it. The close up portrait shot of your son I find just brilliant.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks so much - glad you appreciated it.

[@Harlequin565]

I really love these videos Dave. Thanks for producing them. I've been waiting for ages for it to come back in stock in the UK, and the second it did, I grabbed 2 three packs. I don't shoot a lot of colour outside of Autumn, but Lomo800 has so much flexibility with that high ISO. Last year I shot it next to Portra 800 and much preferred the look from the Lomo film. I don't care where it comes from if it gives me a look I love. Glad you enjoyed it too! Cracking sample images.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks Ian - I’m glad you appreciate the videos. I only got one three pack, but I really do like this stock (should have grabbed 2 packs like you). I agree about the flexibility - it was nice shooting one stock from day to night.

[@AlexLuyckxPhoto]

Great review of Lomo 800, it's still on my hit list of films to review. Maybe next year :)

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks Alex - looking forward to seeing your results with this stock.

[@ManuelGuzmanPhotography]

Love the night photography here! Also, completely agree about how nice it is to just carry one camera, lens, and film stock - especially us film youtubers. Lol.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Yeah, Manny, I went out with one camera again last weekend - this could become a habit...

[@GavinLyonsCreates]

Sweet! Wonderful locations, you choose really good subjects. Splendid film! I must try it. Thanks!

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks Gavin - I’m planning on trying it in 120 next.

[@GavinLyonsCreates]

@@theoldcameraguy Uau that will be nice, nice!

[@JamieMPhoto]

Great lessons! I love this film, and I enjoyed the night shots a lot.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks - I can see why you dig this stock!

[@JamieMPhoto]

@@theoldcameraguy You're welcome! I feel like there could be conspiracy theory podcasts about the sources of Lomo filmstocks. ha ha.

[@theoldcameraguy]

@@JamieMPhoto I’d listen to that...

[@JamieMPhoto]

@@theoldcameraguy 🤔 Hmm

[@VintageInsightPhotography]

Nice! The carton photo didn’t show, I assume the film is daylight? Also, how was the negative density at 800? Kodak negatives were always thin to me. I shot Vericolor 3 (160 ASA) at 100 or even 80 to get proper negative density.

[@AndrewGoodCamera]

Those were some excellent shots, my friend. //A

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks Andrew

[@ericflynn4524]

It's hard to go wrong with a 50mm 1.4! Also, I can see the appeal of the color palette, I really like the look-might have to try and find a roll or two myself at some point!

[@theoldcameraguy]

Yes - I think it’s worth seeking out!

[@sgit1]

Pro presentation . . . as always.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks again!

[@AlexJacksonSmith]

Quite a vibrant film without being garish like Sony digital cameras. As for concentrating on the images with one camera, you do great with many cameras too! Cool advice too... A.,

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks Alex - it was liberating in a way to just have one camera. I plan on doing the one camera thing more often.

[@10rollsoffilm11]

Really enjoyed the video! If I had to choose one stock to cover all of my needs, Lomo 800 would definitely be a contender: I shot it between 100 and 3200 with useable results. And skin tones are great!

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks Leo. I’ve only shot this at box speed, but I really dig this film so far.

[@h.sinclair]

never mind the film, these are just beautiful photographs !!

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thank you!

[@GoneWithFilm]

Loving your results from this film. I'm just curious, is your son called theyoungcameraguy?

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks - Too funny - my younger son shoots film with me occasionally - this one, not so much😆

Adored the images......que bello photo!!

Nice video and some lovely shots. Did you shoot it at box speed?

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks and yes, I shot it at 800.

[@GeirBakkenVestfold]

Your channel is a great place to check out different films. Another nice video from you :-)

Nic review and a nice camera. I think the last version of the film camera of Canon. I have him too.

[@theoldcameraguy]

Thanks - I really like the Canon Rebel series.

Early bird gets the worm, haha.

[@jimgraves4197]

@@theoldcameraguy Yep, I thought I had got in early this time around but others were clearly faster. I think it sold out in less than a day on the Lomography website.
