[@MrSuperiorPants]

as someone who first started on digital 8 years ago and always watched your videos and then completely switched over to film in 2018 and have gotten to know the amazing film photography community of youtube, this is amazing.

[@ralphsaad8637]

In a world ravaged by narcissism, it's so refreshing that Peter unlike other KZbinrs would take time and invest so much effort to promote other photographers.

[@mdbdoc]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@AndyS52]

he's still very much a narcissist

[@citiestoash]

@@AndyS52How?

[@Gwi1ty]

He still can’t win though can he. People rabbiting on about “underrepresented female photographers” you like what you like. Who gives a shit whether they are female or not

[@CreativeRyan]

Vuh & Sam 🐐 They're my guys & also, perfection! This was a good switch up, you nailed it. I appreciate when creators mention their inspirations! 🔥

[@christopherlaundra7070]

Old film guy here, did hundreds of weddings back in the 80's and early 90's, lived in Denver so had to mix wedding and landscape photography on many of the weddings I shot. Knowing your film type is key, I used Vericolor 120 (over exposed 1/2 stop) so mastering a film type is (I think) super important in Film Photography. Believe me being a film guy helped me so much when I started shooting digital. Nice video !!

[@dizzyparkermusic]

This was the BEST way to respond to that video of the guy saying Peter McKinnon would be bad for the film photography space. Good on ya Pete! ✊

[@lucaskneip5997]

Peter shouting out 50 shades of Jason is my new favorite cross-over episode

[@tonygrrro]

i wanna see what jason says about it :) he’s so funny. love the dude.

[@nickthaskater]

Jason is my spirit animal

[@JE47556]

Let's be real. Peter only gave Jason the shout because of Baxter.

[@abdulmoqeetsajjad]

​@@JE47556100% agreed

[@HiddenFiles]

Imagine Peter on Jason’s interview videos 😂😂

[@AdventureOtaku]

I worked in photography (fashion and stock in NY) from like 1989 to 2003..... I left just as the switch to digital was occurring. The part of this that cracks me up is we would NEVER shoot Kodak Gold. It was desperate, last option, only film you could find.... It's nice to see people shooting film again.

[@RanftEvan]

Ayeee Vuhlandes getting his flowers 💐 love to see it!

[@urunclejoey]

There has been people that said Peter might be killing film but it seems like this is a really positive impact on photography as a whole (except for ebay prices ;-;). Idk film ytbers are underated and this is so nice to see thanks for supporting the film photography!

[@alyssamicha6060]

My face when Peter opened that fridge full of film! What a thing of beauty.... Wish I had enough film in stock to justify giving it a private fridge! lol

[@jimhestermanphotography]

Been following this channel for ever and I always love when you highlight other creators. Those two things I said don't necessarily belong but I wanted you to know both. I have been following a couple of these but now I have more to inspire me. Love that you gave love to Vuhlandes. Extremely unique individual and creative.

[@randyreinhart]

Female film photographers were noticeably underrepresented, so here's a few that I admire: Jade Stephens (hej.jade), Ashtyn Liska (ashtyn.liska), Sissi Lu (sissi_lu), micheleonfilm, Molly Fletcher (mollyfletchr), bynicolemejia, and Coraline Mattice (coraline.mattice)

[@willowrun]

I noticed that as well and was disappointed by that. There are so many awesome female film photogs out there.

[@costella-design]

I thought the same.

[@AtomicBeaver93]

Lucy Lumen is another GOAT

[@randyreinhart]

@@AtomicBeaver93 Yes! Absolutely!

[@justintzou]

You guys make it sound like it was intentionally done. He just happened to gravitate to these people’s work. If you’ve followed Peter long enough, he doesn’t care who takes the photo, but only their process, their passion, and the true art behind it. A boy, a girl, a trans, a gay, however they identify. It doesn’t matter to Peter. He merely appreciates art, regardless of who takes it and maybe he just happened to gravitate to these people ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@jordanfaustino]

Cody and Jason are both awesome! Glad to see them getting shoutouts

[@JHawk]

Something you said that has always stuck with me was - making sure to send the elevator back down. It's why so many people respect what you do, love to see it man. Great video!

[@marshalbains]

Such great mentions, and beautiful work by the lot of them. Another great mention be Nick Carver. His work always seems so simple, but his attention to details, thought process and his experience with film deserve all the love and attention as well. You'd love his work.

[@BrandonPrive1432]

Grainydays aka 50 shades of Jason is top tier film photographer and KZbin creator, the videos are epic! Him and BadFlashes are the dynamic duo!!

[@aawonnewton]

Glad these guys are getting some well deserved recognition. I know Joe & Willem both have photo books out, definitely the best way to consume their work if you can get your hands on them!

[@RoadRoyals]

I got clickbaited by Casey 😅

[@ericmorales1934]

Jason is just art, sarcastic, sad, and an amazing photographer.

[@ZacSaleski]

One guy I've been following for so long who absolutely nails it is Trout and Coffee, he goes by kyle but just nails that nostalgic seasonal setting so insanely well. definitely worth a look

[@victorcarrera9443]

All these guys are so talented, this is a new era for photography. But when you mentioned the GOATS and I thought you would be talking about Steve McCurry, Sebastiao Salgado, Garry Winogrand, Vivian Mayer etc etc.

[@vanlifeshots]

Love this! And love that you're always putting the spotlight on other creatives. Such amazing photography. Also amazing that there was only 1 female photographer... I'm sure there are plenty out there who are worthy of making the list.

[@createdbynialee]

I was commenting the exact same thing too. There are so many great female film photographers out there but somehow only 1 made the cut.

[@jefffrandsen]

Would love to see you feature photographers that aren’t already big

[@Nrgvisuals]

I love all of those photographers / creators ! Great video truly. Would love to see more representtion from diffrent genders of film photogrpahers. There are so many out there.

[@EduarFilms]

Peter you are definetly special man, thanks for promoting smaller creators as you always do, you have a heart of gold 💛

[@mrchristerry]

I really enjoyed this - such talent out there - there must be so much anxiety waiting to get these developed. The only thing is... and I know this won't be intentional but are there no women/female film shooters - perhaps I missed it? Could you do another video about women film shooters...

[@MIRAAAS]

I love your interior & especially the window portal detailing. I think this is the best studio interior you've had yet.

[@JoshPricePlus]

Nick Carver, Ben Horne. These are the guys..

[@exposuresofthesoul]

It took me three days to finish this video because of the habit holes I fell in along the way. Another killer video Peter, thank you again for being a fountain of amazingness that shares the love!

[@LearningandTechnology]

You might like a Canadian photographer named Christine Fitzgerald. Years ago on Canada's 150th - I discovered her work when I applied to join a ship journey (came close, but missed the final cut) - her work is mind-blowing and I honestly think it will amaze you. Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any obsession with new photographic methods caused when/if you see this work. It's pretty "next-level" photography and it's analog at it's apex (imho). If you start getting into this - it's not my fault.

[@austinross19]

So sick, I love that you are uplifting other photographers

[@hadyantarisp]

Hey peter, I saw your videos since 2019.. Where at that time I got my first project as a beginner photographer and I didn't know where to start. Now that I've been trusted by some great clients thanks to your tips, I'm planning to create my own KZbin channel in the future.. I love you Peter and I'm very grateful.

[@HiddenFiles]

Willem, Vuhlandes, and Grainy Days are the 3 that got me into photography in the first place.

[@boywonderhia]

+ 1 Vuhlandes dude is one of the best on KZbin, and he inspired me months ago to get into film. One person left off this list that I feel should of been on it. Mike Gray. Incredible film work, and he’s literally 2-3 years into it.

[@-grey]

Something about film permits snap photography more. I love the style of snap photography but something about the age and techniques of film gives it validity. Images like you were mentioning with the pool stairs being the subject I love it. I'll continue to do it with my Ricoh GR III for now, but man I think film elevates the genre.

[@CrossCultureStudios]

Can’t say enough about content creators with large followings on KZbin who shout out other channels. Really feels like a community when this kind of stuff happens! Great vid.

[@JoeYatesAlaskanFilms]

Jason, Samual, and Vulandas made the list!

[@aaronstaana]

5 years ago Matti and Peter inspired me to pickup a camera, during the pandemic Jason, Vuh, and Willem were my go to when I was learning film. I wish to see them be in one video with Peter.

[@itsgracekeeley]

Epic list excited to check them out, would have loved to see more women represented!

[@naabiaromain3917]

My thoughts exactly! Lots of faves on here, but as always not a whole lot of ladies. If you never quite feel included as a women, you’re not alone lol

[@lanehartwell]

Yeah, where are the women?

@@naabiaromain3917 appreciate you replying 👍💛

appreciate you man!❤ keep going xx🎞️

[@JonnyRoams]

Some pure talent here thanks for sharing dude!

[@TACTICALNOMAD]

Kodak Gold was the standard when I started seriously becoming a photog in 1978. 200, 400, 800 and 1200 (when shooting long range action or sports.) I had 100s of rolls of 200 & 400 - 24exp. film in my bag at any one time. I had a dedicated film bag because I shot so much. Some rolls took weeks or months to shoot, unless it was for a client shoot. You shot with purpose because you didn’t have $$ to just shoot willy-nilly. And you didn’t have the option of deleting photos that didn’t turn out quite right like with digital. Film Photogs were true artists, unlike digital creators. We didn’t have editing software to correct mistakes.

[@thats_joy_with_mark]

Talking of film "Kodachrome 25" Omg. I was using this back in the 80s to make stereo 3d photos on 2 Canon A1s. "Did anyone else ever do this?“ To view them I converted a veiwmaster to take slide film. Looking back at them is incredible, like I'm actually there! Total nerd stuff, loved it... Finally getting back into it, forgot how much I loved cameras. Anyway, glad I found your channel, love it!

[@TheNetflixNook]

I'm going to get super real for a second so i apologize in advance. My job lately has been a living hell for a variety of reasons but pausing for 15 minutes and 28 seconds to give this video a bit of my time during the day was worth every second. I don't love what I do, it's a stepping stone to bigger and better things down the road but I do love my youtube channel and the joy it brings me. Seeing a video like this always reminds me that even when life or a job can get crazy you have to remind yourself it's not the end all be all. Theres always other opportunities out there and even if you're in a rough place today, doesn't mean you will be tomorrow. these artiest were able to take the thing they love and turn it into a life well lived. If they can do it then why cant we.

[@timothysears6970]

Jason Kummerfeldt is also my favorite. Thanks you for including him.

[@daniellefernandes8423]

I wish there were more female photographers on this list

[@itsgracekeeley]

Exactly what I thought 💛 as cool as the photographers are feel could have been better balanced

Why don’t you share some of your favourite female film photographers here then? ☺️

[@MicroFourNerds]

Graincheck. she’s awesome.

[@dccd673]

I was thinking how nice it was his list included at least one woman. Women follow Peter as well, so it’s nice we have one of our own in his list lol. When I first followed female photographers, I had to really search them out. I had noticed the people I was following were all male, which was not intentional as I look at the work people do.

I remember when my dad shot his last roll of Kodachrome and told me all about why it was a big deal. I didn't get it until years later when I truly started shooting on my own and not just using one of his cameras to the settings he had set.

[@vonchef14]

Shooting film is to me about the film and understanding the difference between them all and using the right film for the type shooting your doing. Then the lens is important use older lenses with film because the film was designed for lenses. Been shot film for over 40 years now, nice to see you the younger generation appreciating the art of film photography plus now you your digital photography will improve immensely because of you shooting film.

This is a joke. The GOAT (film) photographers are not on KZbin, you can see their works at museums, galleries, photo agencies, cover magazines and photobooks.

[@nohatemedia3786]

You do realize that the term GOAT is subjective right? Just because someone can have an image published or shared in a gallery doesn’t take away from the fact that others who don’t can still produce amazing work
