Repaired my Hasselblad on the street ... seriously

[@tedphillips2951]

I have followed you since England & you just get better & better! The challenges of film are frustrating & rewarding.

[@ribsy]

Really appreciate you!

[@Ezpzfilm]

Brother, good interaction on the fly when you had trouble w your hassy. "lets check out the polaroid photo while I try to fix the hassy" So good dude, this only comes with experience and knowing how to keep calm during tuff situations. Props Ribsy, keep doing you

[@ribsy]

Haha just going with the flow!

[@nothingness.emptiness]

That's right DIY! :) nice one

[@ribsy]

Sometimes you just gotta do it!

[@rnoirs]

Finally, a new episode! That close up of the model was beautiful. Wow.

[@ribsy]

thanks for watching!

[@Goalieswede]

You were on fire in this one

[@ribsy]

I felt good! 😊

[@ISO6forty]

Awesome work, I love the vibe of those portraits

[@ribsy]

me too 😁

[@sixteenbitter]

This is a great series, Ribsy. So happy to see you on back on KZbin. And I LOVE the instant back!

[@ribsy]

thanks for the support

[@robertriley1991]

I love your interactions with people. Very natural and organic. You mentioned Bruce Gilden, I find you share the experience with your subjects, where he takes it for himself. If that makes any sense.

[@ribsy]

that makes perfect sense. the experience of taking the photograph is just as valuable

[@leoalejandrolive6020]

That's how you fix a jammed hasselblad!!!!.. amazing!!!

[@ribsy]

haha something like that

[@Spencer_White]

Ace Ribsy, always nice cooking watching your videos. Awesome pics! 📷🎞️👌

thanks!

Back in the day Hasselblad made a special very hard plastic screwdriver just for resetting the shutter on the lens when it was attached to the body. A regular screwdriver works just fine as long as you don't slip and scratch the lens. Also Hasselblad has always recommended that you store the camera with the lens and body cocked and the film back advanced. So I've gotten in to the habit of advancing the camera after every shot before I do anything else

[@ribsy]

yea advancing the back is def key! gotta get into a habit of doing so

[@ccrowe714]

Love this rhythm!

[@ribsy]

Yea it felt good!

[@claudiotaras1289]

Love your streetphotos👍👍👍

Great authentic video pal, surprised you don’t have more subs yet.

[@ribsy]

you want more than 27k?!? LOLOL 😂

[@Johnny_shade]

Great episode, man! Been watching your channel since developing in England 👏🏼👏🏼 don’t worry about the output keep following your intention 💎 looking forward to the next episode. Be well!

[@ribsy]

you are a day 1! thanks for the support

[@IvarsDayLab]

Awesome video! Love the portraits you took even with all the Hasselblad drama :)

[@ribsy]

Appreciate you!

[@mikestanavech7858]

Hard lesson learned. Same thing happened to me 3 hours from home, my 500 jammed. Now a Blad tool is part of my kit. A 3/16” screwdriver is cheap enough. If yours is jamming that much, it might be timefor service.

[@ribsy]

i think i learned my lesson!

[@timothyplatt6053]

That Gilden interview was really damn good. Great Video as usual Ribsy. Love your stuff.

[@ribsy]

right? really good interview

[@timothyplatt6053]

[@ZOMBIELUIS666]

Man Ribs I was thinking about a hasselblad but you're talking me out of it lol I'll probably go with a Bronica sq-A

[@ribsy]

bronica sq is a great camera. best bang or your buck and just as functional and modular as a hasselblad

[@joanmichel]

Good vibes in the city.

[@ribsy]

Def a great day. Love those type of days

New fav channel not just for the dope jazz background music

[@ribsy]

Haha thanks!

[@bernardkealey6449]

Hehehe, nice work Eric Just imagining some of the afficiandos clutching pearls at your DIY work. Only thing more shocking would be some Leica folk 🤭 Now if only I could do that kinda fix with my C330 winder issue or my 6x9 folder trigger problem. Love your portrait work. Keep spreading the joy.

[@ribsy]

haha yea! im sure it scared many

Keep up the vids! What's the photography vest you're using? Cheers

It’s a random vest from eBay!

Always fun to see you interacting with people. Great NYC vibes. BTW "Hassel" is a german slang word for unnecessary trouble ;-)

[@ribsy]

haha now it all makes sense

Amazing

[@ulyssesnathanialowen3831]

yer that happens ,each time to it happens to me, my heart sinks , once it happens a half dozen times, you start to relax , its a reminder to slow and down and focus on the camera .. , carrying a screw driver , penny ( for the body) or hasselblad tool is a must !! that was a well dressed man at the end ( nothing wrong with dressing well and looking your age) . Some interesting shots well done with those , the polaroid back its such a bonus , I love mine . I have one from the hasselblad expert (KZbin channel) ... lomo 92 would suite Nyc well , I think .. ps its always better to say your a resetting the hassle .. fix implies broken or bust .. which it is not , you are being punished for improper technique and process ..

[@ribsy]

Preparation is key!

[@h.walker1332]

You gonna try out that digital back they made recently?

[@ribsy]

i def would if someone lent it to me haha

[@h.walker1332]

@@ribsy my local shop bought one and rent it out

[@JasonBrownafewmomentsl8er]

When will new classic film be back in stock on your site?

[@ribsy]

never again - sorry!

[@TravelWithAC]

I have zero issues approaching people. I have zero issues asking to take a photo or shooting without. But I would get soooo anxious 'in the moment' and not be able to ask of the random people anything. Lighting bad, pose bad, background bad, no problem. I take the photo however it is. But Ribsy, no only tells them where to move, but then goes on to take multiple photos in multiple places, even so much as telling them multiple times to lower their face and glasses. I would pass out at this point jajaja 16:33

[@ribsy]

haha you just gotta slow down a little bit. take a breath 🤓

[@JohanSvenssongbgpixtures]

Yeah!!

This camera, and this guy are unbelievable. Those colours and this natural sharpness is not from this planet.

Do you think your energy changes when in NY, compared with the UK?

[@ribsy]

Yea def. More casual and straight to the point in nyc

[@dcallan812]

The instant film back looks great. Some people shot like a machine gun scattering the world with thousands for crap snaps and the odd interesting photo they got accidently and think they are photographers. Shooting film would slow them down and save on memory. Great video 👍👍

[@ribsy]

Yea it’s a great product!

Ribsy, Fixed the 550CM on your own mate! Nerve wracking when the camera locks up.

[@ribsy]

Haha def nerve wracking, luckily it’s a simple fix

[@nelsono4315]

I'm not a street photographer but I really like your style of street portraiture as opposed to the cats that just random click people. Your vibe lends itself nicely to what you do. I've been into photography since the mid 80s. Nowadays I do mostly live music. Keep up the great work.

[@ribsy]

I really appreciate it! 😃

[@tomislavmiletic_]

The solution to your problem is simple: just buy another Hasselblad and have that Instax thing on it permanently. Just saying. ☺
