As a Finn, I died little inside when you said our arch nemesis Sweden. I’m not sure how to continue from here.

[@JokiW]

As a Swede, I love you lil bro. 💛💙🤍

[@JiiV3e]

I felt so dissed. A part of me died.

[@JokiW]

Absolutely, who wants to be a footnote, not worth a retake of a youtuber?

[@juahan8802]

@@JokiW Who am I kidding, we love you as well! But it still hurt, you can probably imagine how it would feel if someone said that Ikea is from Finland.

[@JokiW]

I'd take SantaColor 100 over Ikea, 100% more analogue hipster cred 💪 Some really good photographers too, fan of teemu.jpeg

[@mcianph]

I really hope that the campaign succeeds, never loved the colors of a film stock so much, I'd love to shoot this

[@grahamdickinson486]

Me too. On film I like the warm orange /red tones for nice summer evenings

[@mcianph]

@@grahamdickinson486 same for me!

[@Nitidus]

I mean, it looks nice. But - I didn't look at the campaign - what's it really worth if they cannot reproduce it?

@@Nitidus if they can't reproduce it I will choose them really wise. And I will be proud of these picture my whole life

i'm a big fan of the production on this one. the lenses u shot with, the colorgrading, the framing, the swap to 4:3, all rly good

[@Mexic4nt]

for sure

[@bestmoviesever1]

Love 4:3!

It would have been interesting if someone, years from now, would have recovered that lonely roll left behind and developed it only to reconnect with you. That would have been some Interstellar shit

Santa Color 100 review crew 😄 nicely done! Perhaps Finns have an unhealthy connection to Santa. There is also a Santa theme park village in Finland.

[@ninjaplays9619]

Santa is from Finland thats why! Not from the north pole as the americans think

[@hyppyrotta71]

It is also bit of an wordplay. Santa actually refers in finnish language to sand. The original film released by these folks was called santa-rae and rae means grain in finnish and it was rather grainy 1000 iso B&W film. Gain of sand ➡️ film grain. It has sort of double meaning referring to both film grain and santa claus :D

[@Stanlyok]

@ 7:13 Looking at the film itself - seemingly it's exactly like Silberra 100, which was produced from probably same "aerial surveillance film" leftovers. Loved the Silberra 100, it is also possible to develop it as a positive in E6 chemistry with a bit of tweaks (because base still has a little bit tint).

[@doriangasseling]

This film stock actually looks really nice, I usually don't even bother with "new" shit cos its some rebranded trash they couldn't use anywhere else, but this looks solid. Hopefully it comes into proper production and is available down these ways. The fact they allow a 1,000 pack order is fucken wild.

[@jk1231391]

Thank God I was already sitting on the toilet right as this dropped

[@PinebrookPictures]

Aerocolor has such different looks depending on how you scan it. On my flatbed It's actually really blue and not very brown at all. I love the filmstock though. It's got a really nice grain structure...

[@someonewithsomename]

Yeah, like every film ever.

[@PinebrookPictures]

@@someonewithsomename I think this one is a little different due to the non-orange backing in the filmstock. Analogue Resurgence does a really good break down on it. There are usually differences, but not this drastic I think.

4:3 aspect ratio got me feeling like im watching a Wes Anderson film

[@stuartcarden1371]

Perhaps it's due to the lovely light but I'm seriously loving this film. Clarity for days, plus it's gorgeously warm and rich. I'm even getting slight Kodachrome vibes. 100% going to try and find some.

[@JohnDoe-hr9fr]

So many great photos in this vid Jason, glad you went back for the roll!

[@JiiV3e]

As a finnish elf let me give you an anwser: Santa helds us all hostage, he makes us worship him.

[@DLivingston]

I do like the landscape colors from this stock and always happy with new stocks. Great video as always.

[@tyler0rsak]

Jason, this is my new favorite channel. I’m really enjoying everything you make. Thanks so much and keep up the good work.

[@randomcookie2350]

as an ipad user i absolutely looove that 4:3 aspect ratio, and i sincerely hope that there are more videos to come in this format, as to the film stock i hope they’ll succeed, the colors are truly wonderful and last but not least this video was another 11/10 keep it up, much love from germany

[@AM257.]

this was so pleasing to watch, can't decide which I want more, the leica m6 or the actual santacolor 100. love the red and yellow undertones

[@charcoalhobo]

Crazy that this whole video was shot on SantaColor 100, great film stock, you can't even tell

[@delgrandephotos]

this video is a very nice photography piece itself, all the frames are really well colored, and its always a great vibe to listen to your low energy voice over.

[@revaaron]

I did the same exact thing with a Mamiya 645 80mm f2.8 lens. I didn't realize it for a whole week. When I drove back, it was sitting right there waiting for me. Thankfully, it hadn't rained at all.

[@peterkay9050]

I have some of this film on the way so was very interested and am impressed, but what I enjoyed most was your presentation. Utterly utterly brilliant

[@sharp_swf]

This video looks really cool. Great production

[@tim31415]

As it appears the film has no orange mask, you should be able to process it in E6 chemistry and get positives.

[@SheaStevenson]

Interesting! Attic Darkroom needs to get onto this

[@timeremapperegor1249]

by the base density and tint i can surely tell that it's 100 percent kodak aerocolor ! shot by myself hundreds of pics on this emulsion. got the best results while shooting with a conversion filters in different light scenarios my expirience tells that the native ISO is about 80, most of the bulk that i got hands on, was produced between 2012-2014. there's tons of this specific emulsion in russia film stores, 120 is way more interesting in my opinion. in datasheet the spectrum chopped around 680 nm, so there's only visible light (IR couldn't be possibly seen) if you cross-process it you could get a decent results too

[@robine5280]

Looks great! Would like to see it on more of a european landscape because now I know it looks great around the desert but last time I checked there was no desert in sight.

[@stopmo6845]

I adore that ringtone

[@bentuinstra4441]

[@Zhangweifang817]

Recently we are having similar products available in China as well, marketing as "Izvet". Says it came from an old Kodak production line in Russia that makes air recon films. "Izvet" has the same iso so I figure they are probably based on the same film stock? (costs $8.7USD per roll 120)

[@refard5]

It's a film stock not made by Kodak

Nice.

If it is a true aerial film the orange tone is to counteract the blue colour of the upper atmosphere.
