Rollei Crossbird

[@TheWingedLing]

Baxter needs to stop letting his cameraman/editor appear so much in his videos.

[@David_GarciaMontero]

Baxter's appearences: - NONE 00:14 Our hearts are break... See ya next time.

[@nospoilers8759]

Thanks a lot bitch

This is some of your best work to date. Your composition is great.

[@refard5]

I love how the only print available is the toilet one, the best one of course

[@kudobass9090]

I’ve just finished watching every single one of these here grainy days. Even that hour long Iceland one, with too many waterfalls. And the ‘interviews’. (Meaningful look to camera.) In some alternate universe, there’s a whole channel with Ten Questions victims. When you find that particular wormhole, pull me in. So anyway, thank you Jason. I need to go sell my furniture. Film will never die. It’ll just keep eating people’s souls, and living in the shadows. As I now will, also. Peace. I love you.

[@TheMoneymoneymoney13]

Hands down my dude you're my favorite photographer! For the past few months ive fallen out of love with photography 😔 major self doubt and imposter syndrome but your videos have really helped me to pick up the camera again. Thank you Grainydays if I ever get half as good as you, I'll be one content human ❤

[@martinhendry]

The entire set of images here are insaneo style. Love how the blues balance the golden light, and that sharpness 👌

[@ReimannPembroke]

I think is safe to say that Rollei Crossbird is the most badass name for a film stock out there. It also conjures images of someone crossing their arms and flipping me off with both hands. Crossing the bird, if you will. The shots look sick!

[@LightHarmonies]

Solid as always! Also I am in favor of bringing the Fuji Blimp back.

[@migssotto]

That effect at the end was so dope

[@kennethservida6144]

7:00 ah yes. Technically part of Jason's signature "Toilet Photography"

[@gmcdude5540]

6:11 the guy in the water being sus lol

[@PhilKnall]

Hey, glad to see you got around to doing this one! Sorry for getting your hopes up. I still have to shoot my second roll some time..

[@RewDowns]

These are some of your best photos

[@tim31415]

I have been using Crossbird for many years and still have a stash in the freezer. As you point out, this is a E-6 film, not C-41. When it first came out, it was marketed as an E-6 film and was not called Crossbird. I looked for any old canisters of it to get the specifics of the original packaging, but could not find any. My suspicion is that sales were originally poor, so Rollei rebranded it. Many people are afraid of E-6 as they believe it is "hard to use". Also, cross processing is a real hipster sort of thing. As for the film with the yellow cast you like, it was sold under various names. Lomography repackaged it and it was also sold as ReraChrome. I have a bunch of the ReraChrome as it was one of the few films available in 127. More power to you if you like it. I shoot it with a blue color correcting filter which gets rid of the cap piss vibe.

[@searchingrecords]

hey! do you recommend shooting at 100 or 200? package says 100 if developed in E-6. 🤔

[@KelseySmithPhotography]

No Baxter = no like. JKjkjk this video was killer as always Jason! Beautiful images!

[@owenrodgers8020]

i love the shots from this film and what you did in the processing

[@jn1982]

A very simple inexpensive crackin' good video. Thank you for showing us California.

[@viktorkubanek3649]

Oh thank you god for another grainydays video

[@eliteprofashion]

I love the part where it looks like you are taking a picture of the girl and then the camera pans to the umbrella

[@cggg490]

Umbrella perv.

[@davidwoods80]

"Super orange-yellow crunchy dried cat-piss vibe". You've the literary skills of Joyce, Hemingway, and Shakespeare. Just kidding. But you're definitely a master of snark, something I highly value. And that transition to the Squarespace plug? WhooEee. Must have taken hours to think that up.

[@EnvyDesignGroup]

You’re a credit to your craft dude! Really love watching your videos.

[@kartanosaka]

11:18 reminds me very much of edward hopper

[@KenyelSR]

Dry humor is the best humor. Thank you.

[@GlennnnnS]

That roll of Rollei Variochrome in my fridge is probably the rarest thing I own

[@andrewhowarth4578]

@3:49 It's more amazing that any of us film geeks ever managed to get laid, let alone find a girlfriend/boyfriend/spouse. Seriously, loved the shots and your in-video spot for Square Space makes Rudy Giuliani's UFO/MyPillow/MyBlanket/MySlippers spot look like an effort from Four Seasons Landscaping. I shot Agfachrome back in the days when I had hair, and I'm going to look for some at my local thrift shops. I expect it will be five dollars. Andy

[@MKNYC_]

I’ve never been more interested in the chemical science behind developing film than right now, thank you

[@NuralIdrisoglu]

Also I gotta say, I love your remarks with the sort of monotone voice!

[@joaoribeirinha8215]

I find your videos way more interesting than Verbeeck's, you still the LA grainy hotshot 😍

[@Mtpetrides]

I’m a simple man; Jason posts, I click.

[@tim31415]

I just found some rolls in the older packaging. It was called Rollei Chrome CR 200.

[@JasperBunschoten]

Rollei also has Chrome CR 200, which I know is old Agfa slide film (Agfa RSX II 200). I wonder if it is the same stock as Crossbird? In any case, nearly all of the current Rollei film stocks are just rebranded Agfa films, whether it is colour or black and white film.

[@christianpaul6893]

yo that ending animation, I see you 👀 so sick!

[@johnnydelamora485]

Bro I was just there on Tuesday! Went to El Matador then Nicholas beach. Love the sunsets there

[@SamuelElkinsPhoto]

Love Leo Carrillo 👌🏽

[@ThePhotoDept]

Leo Carillo loves you

[@mattdyer9544]

Was wanting a proper demonstration of crossbird in e6. It's about half the price of any other slide film in the UK. Only problem is it will be even harder to find now

[@stylist_bitter6194]

yesss I've been waiting for this. Thanks homie Edit: 6:10 croc shot

[@Boqcoqi]

It’s always nice to watch a grainydays vid

[@ricedumplings3767]

6:22 I like this!!!!

[@GreatWaterCircus]

Cool vid I use to shoot Agfa 200 Chrome... it has a very cool look, the colours are mute, more illustrative in look... also Konica 200 E6 centuria was a very cool color rich film... back in the day there were many stocks... all gone now. But Im interested in this Rollei Crossbird as its still available in NZ ...Thanks for the vid

[@EDHBlvd]

I’m glad you finally tried it.

[@oscar8010]

The Fuji Blimp is an essential to the grainydays brand

[@pavlovcikjan]

Watching this just while waiting for my first Crossbird come back from its E6 bath. Curious to see if it comes looking any similar to yours.

[@datboidadl4111]

11:19 has someone shot ektarchrome with a warming filter? If so, were the results similar to this?

[@anonimo120797]

me: YEAH, new Grainydays video also me at 0:14: Let's get the fuck out of here

[@Photo_Cyclist]

Lol'd hard at that guy taking a dump. But then I looked down and I realised _I_ am taking a sh*t too. Damn you

[@LucaLazzari]

Like every other video, I now want to buy a medium format camera. Plus that film

[@toulcaz31]

As Confucius said “When a wise man points at the moon, Jason shoots the finger” 😆

[@NuralIdrisoglu]

How I wish to have purchased more of Variochrome 😞

[@da009999]

Anyone notice Jason's watch @ 2:53 ? His watch is just like his cameras: vintage, analog, and beautiful.

[@runiih]

The Makina is back :D

[@WhitmeisterG]

Yes he's back!

[@EuroGunOrg]

Looks like Ektachrome shot through a really yellowed Pentax 67's 105mm radioactive lens

[@juanfantasma8053]

Yo, it's always nice to see your videos.

[@shutterlag192]

messes up metering...exposes film at box speed for first time ever...lol Enjoyed the vid as always!

[@iangray9967]

I slammed my iPad 38 times when Jason said no Baxter, you owe me a new iPad Jason I don’t make the rules

[@KetiX]

This could be expired Fuji Sensia film, which was super popular to cross process. It looks exactly like crossbird in C41 and was also re-branded as Agfa Precisa after Agfa went down.

[@Om9rr]

01:06 c'mon man that's Luke Skywalker 😂😂

Finally, I have been waiting for this for a long time...

[@kylewood8327]

I thought the look was cool. Only issue now is the E6 processing, like hear in Tx you have no options. Gotta send it to Denver

[@tresnic09]

DQ shot at 9:53 is insane.

Hey, I have a question about these awesome parallax effect images at the end of your videos. What kind of sorcery is this? Do you use a specific AE plugin?

I used Provia expired in 2007 once and it had really similar results

“Everything good in life is a double stroke.” Best advice given by grainydays.

[@red9829]

Hey Jason! I've had a roll of this sitting in my fridge for several years. It says it expired in 2017/19 (smudged date, hard to tell). I know you usually generally want to overexpose expired film, but slide film is so picky. How should I expose this film?? Should I just shoot it at box speed and hope for the best? Thanks

[@jplubrano2152]

cool but where are the subtitles?🥺

Does anyone know what he meant when he said, "It feels like we're going through a thing with Fuji now-a-days."?
