This got my Photography juices flowing again. Slowing down!

[@markholm7050]

Watching this video, I had what might or might not be a good idea. Find a way to strap a small bean bag to the back of your camera hand, or perhaps to the outside of your forearm. That way you could prop against something solid to steady your hand for slow shutter speeds while still having some freedom of movement to get the angle correct. I haven’t tried it, so I’m just speculating.

[@timwalker6790]

I use a monopod. As it’s collapsible, I often use it “short”. It hangs down under the camera, and gives it a few stops of added inertia. Works like the stabilising rods on competition bows. It’s actually better than fully extended and touching the ground, where there is a risk of undamped lateral rotation.

[@stratocactus]

@@timwalker6790 That's brilliant! I may have to borrow that technique :)

You got a surprise for me at 2:14! Jehovah's Witnesses by the carts 😊 That's lovely! Made my day 👍🏻

[@cdgarcia]

Great video I forget a lot about those shutter speed techniques and twisting motions. The other day I bought slow film 12 ISO and it pushed me to think differently when shooting. It made shooting fun again

[@williamshaffer9216]

What a Great Video!!! I pretty much shoot at 1/125th for hand-held shots and never thought about using slower shutter speeds. Thanks for the tip and the examples!

[@ShootFilmLikeaBoss]

I don't often go slower than 1/125 either unless I need to for light or for some movement.

[@lensman5762]

Some lovely work, Roger. As for me, I have not been myself for a couple of weeks. No enthisiasm for photography. My mind is on my people 3000 miles away, whom are fighting and dying for their freedom. Take care my friend.

[@ShootFilmLikeaBoss]

Thanks Lensman. It is sad what is happening over there. Wishing you well.

@@ShootFilmLikeaBoss Thank you.

[@yorkieinnz4648]

Cool, but I really thought that the Royal Mail van would have have been tack sharp at that shutter speed.

[@peinmilan]

1:33 LOL, the poster on the bus, best easter egg on the channel :)

[@Analogbrain]

Great video, Roger, you're spot on! So was that gentleman speaking about losing interest when going digital, been there! I don't understand why people buy all of that 400 ISO film, and then they complain over that they can't shoot wide open, or at long shutter speed. I mainly use 50 or 100 ISO film, the digitals are set to 100, and I mostly shoot all manual.

[@ShootFilmLikeaBoss]

I've come unstuck sometimes loading 400 and then the sun comes out half way through the roll! Lol

[@steven1000000000]

Just wanted to say thanks for the inspiration in terms of the darkroom work - I got an elarger, paper, red light, trays, tongs etc. this week and have been doing some prints. Watching you for the past while really made me want to try it. It's a totally different side of photography and lots of fun. It's interesting to see the difference between digital scan/prints vs darkroom prints.

[@ShootFilmLikeaBoss]

Nice Martin! You'll get to learn how to shoot a photo for the best results in the darkroom.

[@steven1000000000]

​@@ShootFilmLikeaBoss Definitely. I'm keen on testing out the zone system - Will have to go back to your video on that one and give it a go. For now, I only did some straight prints as a test to see if I understood the basics and so far so good, but have ordered some contrast filters already. Hopefully I'l be able to translate the "vision" into prints from next weekend. Just need to get the shed back from the kids now to get a permanent setup...

[@b_wtangible_moments]

The coat lady, I thought she was going to fly away like marry poppins. 😆 🤣 Nice shutter exercise Roger! 🍻

[@mirkocolasante6257]

slow shutter speed and analog photography the best way to relax and return to love the photography. great video !!!!!

[@paulconnors2078]

I discovered your channel recently (I live in the US) and in this one, smiled when I saw you using what we American Nikon shooters knew as the N90s. I owned two of those cameras with the grip back in the late 1990s, and before I purchased my first F100 (and later an F5). I am re-living and re-learning a love of B & W film photography in great part due to your channel. I especially enjoy that you keep your content both fresh and timely for people who a) may have never shot film before digital and b) those of us who did and are now returning to it out of the pure love of slower, more deliberate photography. Well done, as always!

[@ShootFilmLikeaBoss]

Thanks Paul. Yes good camera the 90. I had to rub all that sticky stuff off the back of mine.

[@malcolmrendle6622]

Fame at last Roger! spotted the ad on the side of the bus.. you must be a local celebrity....lol great video as usual

[@mikestanavech7858]

The shots of the coat in the wind are awesome. Inspired me to shoot 35mm more. Hard but not impossible with medium format. 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@matthewsteele5283]

This was the video i needed! Things have been dead slow and stop with me at the minute, thanks for the inspiration mate great video

[@rolleicanon]

Inspiring. For the panning, though, I use a faster shutter speed, maybe 1/100 or 1/125, and move tightly with the moving vehicle so the vehicle is sharp and the background blurred. Some years ago I did this with tanks, armoured cars and motorcycles that suddenly appeared passing my flat in Paris early one morning. I didn’t know that was a special route to a military parade-it could have been a coup d’état and as I had film in my M3 I didn’t want to miss a shot so metered, set aperture and shutter speed, and ran into the road, then kept focusing on the soldiers’ faces and clicking. Every one came out perfect.

[@ShootFilmLikeaBoss]

Awesome Ken. It certainly is a field where you need to practice a lot. Those speeds sound plausible.

[@WillGudgeon]

Great and interesting video, always good to try something different when you get stuck in a rut, there are many fun and creative options with photography to try.

[@ShootFilmLikeaBoss]

Exactly Will.

[@arcanics1971]

It's been a while since I've done anything with slower speeds- except when the light dictates. I may take this as inspiration to do some longer exposures- maybe even proper long exposures with the NDs.

[@JohnKorvell]

I unclip one end of my camera strap and let it hand down on the ground. I step on that ground end and then pulll up. I gives a little stability like a monopod. Not as good but better than nothing.

[@ShootFilmLikeaBoss]

I do similar by pulling the strap against my neck... When I use a strap that is

[@crappfoto]

Love that advertisement at the bus in back 👍😉

[@cameronwheatley7065]

You can see what settings the photographer used for the Oasis album in the film border - 1 second shutter speed would hopefully have been intentional haha

[@JerzyRugby]

[@largophoto]

....the great shutter speed of photo inertia shutter speed on a manual camera hand held versus who needs digital stabilization

[@snapsnappist4529]

Once again, great video. I've been shooting colour for a while now, but I think I'll go out with some FP4 in the Rolleicord on an overcast day and get some blurry motion shots. The "twist" thing is something I've been meaning to experiment with but never got round to. One of my favourites is American photographer Michael Lavine's shot of Nirvana on the inside cover of Nevermind. Call me old-fashioned, but I think that when rock photographers all went digital, rock stars lost a lot of their mystique.

[@ShootFilmLikeaBoss]

Agree, I can get lots of group of people (4, 5 people) ideas from album covers of the 60's, 70's and 80's

[@nunop6606]

[@tonyhayes9827]

I think movement at slower shutter speeds does depend on how fast the subject is moving but for any given speed the effect is greater the closer the moving subject is to camera? BTW how's the F90x going for you?

[@ShootFilmLikeaBoss]

I think you're right Tony. My closer shots looked more effective. The f90x has been a good camera over the years. I had to keep turning it off and on to change the shutter. But I think that's batteries playing up
