[@kiwitheo77]

Excited to tune into the next episode. Keep it up!

[@lanchanoinguyen2914]

this album is pretty nice

[@mattbray_studio]

have you managed to start uploading podcast episodes to the youtube channel yet willem? i've been listening but would love to see the video versions. thanks

[@taylorwerfelmann]

These videos are the highlight of my week. Literally every Sunday I rush to KZbin to watch your latest vid first thing. It’s inspiring, and you’re killing the game!

[@Jack-eu5vu]

super true; honestly one of the best photography channels ever

[@WillemVerb]

Thats so kind of you! Makes me incredibly happy to hear. Thanks you

[@CHiLECHiLL456]

you should watch @NegativeFeedback than

[@BryanBirks]

Makes me want to go shoot immediately without fail. Every time.

[@WillemVerb]

So glad to hear!

[@JeffSmudde]

I've been following Aint-Bad for a while and they're incredible and really wonderful people.

[@WillemVerb]

Yes they are!

[@CHiLECHiLL456]

Negative Feedback is the man to follow on youtube & IG

[@Shmyrk]

It’s like when I watch a skate video and I need to skate so badly afterwards and then I go outside afterwards and remember I skate so badly... But with photography.

[@dinokuznikphoto]

Thanks for the shout out Willem! I hope you enjoy the book.

[@chrismehmet3463]

That car shot is so so good!

[@causeand3ff3ct]

Stoked for the return of the podcast, Willem. Always stoked to get notified of a new upload on your channel - thanks for the inspiration for my foray into film :)

[@alexlingle2213]

So psyched you're bringing the podcast back. I found your channel like 2 days ago and I've been watching all your videos and I listened to all the podcasts you had going and I was bummed to see you hadn't posted a new one in forever when I finish the 4th episode. I'm really looking forward to the next episode.

[@WillemVerb]

Yess! Im stoked that you're excited

[@alexlingle2213]

@@WillemVerb your stuff and the people you've highlighted through your podcast and photo talks are really blowing my mind man. I've never thought of my photography as self expression, not until I listened to your Lauren Tepfer podcast. Thank you for what you're putting out there. You're making an impact greater than the sum of your work.

[@sevakdilanchian]

Feeling the pang for a GA645. Nice to come back and watch this video in 2022

[@joelhypponen]

This one was strate fire man. Love the glow on those images, must be some exclusive pre-pushed Portra. Also can't wait for those fresh podcast episodes.

[@halfniak]

Whats some exclusive pre-pushed Portra? Im not cool enough to understand you

[@yetijpg1427]

most underrated photography channel on yt

[@noahcwb]

Super excited about the podcasts! Thanks for the recommendations too

[@liambeals2630]

Gotta say, I'm a fan of the glow from the Fuji portraits. It may be the way the harsh light reflects off/interacts with reflective items. Also, your interview was primo. How good.

[@nickryan3509]

I found a copy of OK OK OK in a half price books a little over a year ago. I love it.

[@wisebuddhaboiy]

Can’t wait for that Phototalk with Gabe and Vicky

[@colbiecoleman2713]

i am all here for these new graphics & fun little commentary ! also super stoked for more c41 🤘🏽

[@HugoHardinge]

Always happy when there’s a video from Willem that I haven’t watched! Keep up the hard work 🙏🏻

[@LucysDIY]

I'm glad your podcast is coming back :)

[@brielle8073]

Very hyped for the podcast to come back!

[@Yeahnah09]

dude i love the night shots

[@WillemVerb]

Thank you!

[@frankwu1713]

Those pictures that glows actually looks like pro mist and I love it

[@paulsta1620]

Dino's book looks really awesome! Great pick up and supporting a friend.

[@avery7134]

I can't wait until you come out with your project!!

[@geetanjalipathak4478]

Lovely shots Vicky's voice tho❤️

[@robertosierra16]

I think that glow is from the harsh light bouncing off her white t-shirt

[@randallstewart175]

Right. Either the lens is very dirty, or she has scratched the hell out the lens coating cleaning it with tissue paper or shirt tails, or there is a fungus among us.

[@Noealz]

always great shots :)

[@btrdangerdan2010]

I like that Polaroid of the Boeing 747 aircraft that your friend took in the photo zine.

[@patrickromainjr]

Vicky was a big inspiration to me early on too. Can't wait for episode of Photo Talks.

[@DaGluv]

being the 100.000th viewer of this video is kinda cool ;-)

[@LaughingStock_]

Great video, Willem. Just a small bit of info: the GA645 shoot 15 frames per roll, the updated "i" variants, GA645i, GA645Wi, get 16 frames.

[@MichaelHa]

Great camera! I have the GA645Zi and it's great to carry just for a day in the city! Does have some Autofocus issues here and there but still great overall! Great Video!

[@IlBella_]

cool as usual! and almost 100.000 sub! go man!

[@WillemVerb]

Thank you so much!

[@srad.]

that car shot is FIRE

[@dennisramos6129]

4:20 it looks so like a pro mist filter! incredible! :D

[@FramesPerSecond]

That glow is just her light shirt being over exposed. Had this happen with some portraits on Ektar but it turned out really cool.

[@Makuz1988]

Very nice, interesting video!,I was searching for something about the Fuji Camera, but this is even better!

[@Allenthegreat]

YO YOU MADE A VIDEO WITH THE FLIP!!! BLESS YOUR SOUL WILLEM VERBEECK.

[@WillemVerb]

The king of Flip cameras wow thank you

[@basschurink]

Isn't that glow caused by the big difference in contrast between her and the background? Never mind, it looks cool! Nice vid again Willem!!

[@basschurink]

@Bobby Brady ok. How then?

[@hotmonkeyfilms]

Great channel.Mike Slack is an awesome photographer. Love his book. I have a Fuji GA645 but haven’t shot on it for a while. Just Loaded some Porta in it and ready to shoot.

[@EjatuShaw]

Ayyy Vicky Grout!

[@JoshTrombone]

Looking forward to more podcast episodes! It's great to hear about others bodies of work and processes

[@WillemVerb]

Definitely! Im stoked :))

[@adamgallardo1814]

excited for the podcast to come back!

[@RyanBounedara]

I was already a fan of Sundays, but your consistent uploads make it that much better.

[@AwesomeCameras]

That glow could be from some lens fog, maybe even on the back element of the lens, ive had it happen a few times

[@oussamasettoul5927]

The vintage Man ❤️🙏

[@emmanuel93736]

What happened to the Mexico blog?:c it made me really happy the fact that you were here♥️ i really love your work and videos ✨

[@emiliojimenez7649]

emmanuel93736 same

[@WillemVerb]

Its a disposable video, I will probably wait to upload it because I just posted a disposable video. It will come :)

[@maxm.2824]

Willem Verbeeck where is it will

[@joevelezart]

I really enjoy your channel. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@Franadilla]

love you willem!

[@EDHBlvd]

My wife had one of those flip ultras 9 years ago when we went to Hong Kong. 720p baby.

[@pbfotografiert]

The glow: Dirty scanner optics.

[@FabrizioZago]

The photos and prints look so cool, good decision to create a print portolio. The Fuji GA645 is a great camera, I have it too and I always have fun shooting with it, the lens is amazing sharp.

[@Andrew_cenci]

Heading to NYC in a few months, would love to hang out!

[@ffenoelfa8053]

Hype for c-41 podcast coming back!

[@grantyoungpickin]

yaaa her work is dope!

[@paullouisviguier]

Hi Willem, will you do someday a video about how to get the most of a flashmeter? That'd be awesome! x

[@paullouisviguier]

lightmeter/flashmeter I mean

[@CameraLeaksClub]

lovely video to get inspiration from

[@marvineastman460]

You still scanning your negatives?? Super good my dude

[@Suburb_hell]

I’m wanting to get into medium format. Can’t decide on my first cam. Mamiya 645, Pentax 645n or this one, Fuji Ga645

[@peterrgonz]

is amazing how I can came to these videos and listen to cool people talking in same language as me

[@sharkiepictures]

Hey Willem, I've been searching back trying to find an old video where you recommend a photo book by an American photographer which includes a photo of a couple kids watching a car burn on a highway. Trouble is I can't find it again! Do you have any idea what one this is? Love love love your videos, been a huge inspiration to how I've approached film photography. Thanks! xx

[@kosithebuilder5206]

Maybe bit late, but i think it was Joshua Dudley Greer 'Somewhere along the line'

[@WesleyVerhoevePhotography]

yesssss Gabe!

[@Alexander-ht3nb]

Love it will. Keep it up!

[@piketubeman]

Dude. That's funny what you said about forgetting a light meter. You could have downloaded a metering app no? They work pretty good in a pinch.

[@AK-gs7ek]

Hey Willem! Thanks for your time and passion! Appreciate your work and effort :) What would you suggest as a medium format camera ?

[@Superbustr]

Because you overexposed the film the white highlights have become even brighter than normal. Very bright highlights glow when shot on film. If you had exposed normally the highlights probably wouldn't have glowed as much or at all. ~Interesting effect.

[@haydenshallenberger5595]

so so wish i could've gone to the art book fair! looked wild

[@slimnics]

was the glow on shots where the sun was directly on that white t shirt ?

[@gattocat3729]

how do you commit in shooting film and not getting bothered by other peoples opinion about your shots. I want to be sure about starting film before buying my own film camera

[@pressureworld1]

I very much enjoyed the video. Can you share what portfolio box you are using.

[@khathie4]

Yaaaas love it!

[@khathie4]

Followed you on spotify hehe can’t wait to listen! Sending love from Cebu, Philippines 🥰

[@zobongsar]

Are you working on any new episodes of the C41 podcast? btw great video

[@WillemVerb]

Yes! Details are at the end of the vid :)

[@zobongsar]

@@WillemVerb Awesome bro, love the podcasts

[@radicaleyemag]

Vicky Goat more like ✨ Can’t wait!

[@WillemVerb]

Big truth

[@kenx.227]

Excellent video... One question... what kind of paper do you use to print? I print my photos in a local photography store, but i dont like the paper, and yours looks smooth, i dont know how

[@WillemVerb]

Luster :)

[@kenx.227]

Thanks man!

[@lenkiewitcz]

Sorry is there a link to the podcasts?

[@nollieheel214aim]

Just bought this Camera from KM on broadway!

[@isaiahsmith4388]

[@obeyhellokitty143]

[@aciifbabii777]

Maurqui hows the focusing ?

[@aciifbabii777]

[@thehealthpotions]

[@nebegdirbdoow]

[@sebastianspiller1312]

[@marianamatos8993]

[@AetherCS2]

The Fuji!!

[@jdouguspsa]

c41 coming back stronnggg

[@WillemVerb]

Hes talking about the podcast haha

[@coreywolfenbarger8992]

In reference to the Gabe bit at the end: New York City is the toughest place to shoot that I've ever been to lol

[@halfniak]

i find that rubbing some vaseline on my lenses also make my pics look really cool. Not medium format cool but i get the credit. totally couldnt pull these off on my iphone 4s.

[@andykmpark]

yaaay anotha video

[@TON618-s3z]

What kind of scanner do you use for your film?

[@Disposibl3]

Thank you 🔥

[@MrSodaBelly]

She’s so cute & she takes dope pics

[@urdad7189]

I was going to purchase it a while back but I heard about the flash problems, what would u say about it

[@Singz08]

What’s the brand of your inkjet printer

[@victorlee8418]

Have the Fuji ga645zi but have trouble focusing at night 🤷‍♂️

[@davidkachel]

The glow is from not cleaning your lens!

[@joshuaortiz1069]

when the podcast coming back willem?

[@jonathanabelmann8036]

now thats a variosoft look

[@jakehubbard2768]

What happened to the podcast on Spotify?

[@WillemVerb]

[@Project_2501]

Most heard phrase of the last years "to try an'...".

[@allisonsimon3620]

Wow I wonder who’s flip cam that is

[@oconnelljackson]
