Testing Kendall Jenner’s $1300 vs. $26 Film Camera

[@dafnichin]

Do you have a link for the $26 disposable camera!?

[@haleypham]

Yes in the description!

[@dafnichin]

@@haleypham thank you 🥰

[@jaianne1552]

its actually reusable!

[@ellie_shirley]

Honestly, I love lens flairs and imperfections in photos! The disposable photos turned out super cool imo, and I also love the look of the Contax

[@jaskaransingh6177]

I agree that Flares are good but, some really mess up the photos

[@mucormycetes]

It’s not a lens flare, but a light leak. Regardless, I agree with your comment. The lomography camera gives a softer image which is appealing.

[@arghjayem]

It’s not lens flare, it’s light leaks in the body of the camera.

[@tienphotographer]

i think the portra 400 film vs the cheap 400 film is a HUGE factor.

[@intro.vertex]

I think that the film played a factor in the "grey filter" she kept referring too. But the camera settings themselves were what played this biggest part in the differences between fotos. Things like F stope and aperture size.

[@milesian1]

@@intro.vertex The "gray filter" is underexposure. It can be fixed a little bit by increasing contrast with photo editing software.

[@intro.vertex]

@@milesian1 right... because the camera didn't properly expose the film. There's no editing software for film cameras? 😕

[@milesian1]

@@intro.vertex My comment explicitly states that there's editing software. Obviously, anything we can view over the internet has been digitized. What's the point of your comment?

[@peterphuc387]

Yeah, if they compare it with Lomography 400 or Ultramax 400, the result maybe looks alike :)

[@peterparker6956]

something about the gray hue on the disposable is super appealing.

[@ButtonGirl22]

I would’ve loved maybe a midpoint of a ~$100-$500 film camera to show how that compares as well but I understand that would’ve been a lot of work logistically. Loved the vid, Haley! ❤️

[@aiyasartrefuge1395]

Yessssss same!

[@Jonathan-pm8lg]

Yess!! But, you can achieve the same 'vintage' look with a specific kind of film stock for the point and shoot that you get with the disposable ^_^

[@katelynnlydon9848]

Samee!!!

[@dzava]

the vintage look of the photos has nothing to do with the camera. It is because of the film being used. While Portra 400 in the Contax is a professional grade film for perfect photos with great color and low grain (you can get plenty of crazy vintage, color shifted photos with expired films even Portra which would be even better compared to the disposable camera) while the Lomography films specializes in the vintage look which is basically a cheap rebranded Kodak 200-400 film died into some stuff to achieve some kind of hipster effect...

[@jozigirl7114]

@@dzava portra is very neutral colour wise - the grain is fine, but not my favourite film.

[@linaaanah]

As somebody who dabbles in film, disposables are great for just that go to “I need a film camera” for fun/emergencies in case like concerts or places you don’t want to take your fav, expensive film camera. Disposables aren’t that reliable when it comes to quality. However, I’ve def gotten good photos from them just not the best when compared to a decent film camera. Anyone that does film knows that it’s not that camera, it’s the user getting familiar with properly using the camera and the film rolls you use. So practice and practice some more. Film is supposed to be fun! (:

[@lakshmip9505]

heyy do you know a good quality film camera for price range $60-200?

[@linaaanah]

If you never shoot film before, I suggest looking into a simple point and shoot film camera with auto focus and manual settings. If you can, with other settings too if possible so you can practice in different scenarios. But a simple point and shoot works like Minolta Freedom Zoom. You can usually find point and shoot at thrift stores for around $10. Ask older family members if they still have film cameras hidden in storage. Tons of recommendations on what camera to use YT. Watch Kingjvpes videos. He has some good suggestions on film cameras and helpful tips on shooting film. Get a notebook to keep notes on the settings you had when you took the pictures so when you get your pics developed and get them back. You know how it was taken and adjust accordingly to getting better at it. Don’t spend too much on a first film camera. Start simple and work your way up til you get a hang on how to shoot films.

[@linaaanah]

@@lakshmip9505 Do tons of research on films, film cameras and how to shoot film first. There’s tons of KZbin videos on this. Once you get a camera, learn the settings and how it works. Get comfortable and familiar with it. Take tons of pictures yet be intentional if you really want to improve on how to take pictures. If it’s just for fun and keeping memories, then take as much as you want! Btw I’m still learning on how to shoot film. I’m still a beginner (: just have fun with it! My previous comment has more tips! Good luck!

[@suavebere9026]

personally i think it's hard to beat a contax in terms of quality of the pictures but if you're not big into photography it's not worth it. wouldn't turn down a contax though

[@jozigirl7114]

Try a Minolta TC-1 or a Konica Lexio 70 👍🏻

[@khalilahd.]

The pictures look SOO beautiful but I feel like cheaper cameras have the same quality. Cool experiment though ☺️💜

[@GIJen14]

I actually loved the disposable look more. It looks more like a film camera should. I'd definitely buy the $26 version lol

[@SISSI_LU]

Here’s a tip: try loading lomography 800 film in your contax and let me know what you think. Lomography render Asian skin tones better IMO. Like you mentioned in the video, it’s more pink on the skins, versus portra is more green and yellow.

[@jozigirl7114]

I've never used Lomo, but Fuji film also does a good job at rendering Asian skin tones, Portra a great for white folks, and Ektar is fantastic for black skin.

[@odilemltt2876]

I think that most of the photos had flash, the flash is just not really strong on disposables, so if you take the photo a little too far away from the model it won’t work really well

[@sathiatwitch]

For the most «vintage» kinda vibe, the disposable is for sure the best one. The expensive one is basically just a Camera that doesnt focus well but with a vsco filter already on it so u dont have to Edit that on later kinda vibe

[@pin0ywhat]

It seems you are missing focus a lot on the Contax T2. The center point of the viewfinder is your only focus point, so when you're shooting the T2 point the center point at your subject, half press the shutter button, then hold it there, then you can recompose how you want to frame to shot, then press all the way. Holding the shutter button half way will keep your focus for what you want in focus without having to keep your subject dead middle of the frame. Good luck!

[@kobayashi1337]

This comparison was really unfair, a better one would be with the Contax and a comparable point-and-shoot that is not overinflated in price because a celebrity used it. Obvioulsy the Contax is not "worth" this price tag, it's just caused by demand. And the lens + the film dictate the results of the photos way more than the camera itself, so keeping these factors similar would allow a better avaliation of ~the camera~.

The grain you see on the disposable camera comes from the film not from the camera. Porta 400 is very expensive and good film, who knows what film the disposable camera has.

[@tonyliviero8144]

It’s all about the lens on the camera. Great video!!

[@oliviabertaud986]

Portra is a really nice film too --its known for color quality and even tone (its designed for portraits) so the contax with the Portra vs the disposable with cheap film is probably an even bigger difference than the $1,200 price discrepancy. Most people use film for the unexpected distortion and grit anyways--and that's what cheap does. Seriously, I got a $10 Point & shoot at a thrift store and its perfect for candids and going places I don't want to take my Canon, there is nothing special about that specific camera, DONT PAY 1,300! --but also if you are a beginner wanting to get into film, don't use disposables they end up costing more, its wasteful and it does the same thing as a point & shoot. Okay that's my little spiel, thank you for coming to my tedtalk.

Those are light leaks not lens flares, two very different things. Disposable probably wasn’t completely sealed right, and let in some light onto the film.

[@philm0graphy]

it must have only had the sealing issue on one side, it seemed like whenever the light source was to the direct left of the camera she was getting them
