Whats in my Camera bag + RZ67 Upgrades!

[@WillemVerb]

Todays video is a little more gear oriented, so if thats not your vibe feel free to skip to 8:00 for a photovlog with my friend Wesley Verhoeve :)

[@eladbari]

@11:55 - What Squarespace template are you using, Willem?

[@lanchanoinguyen2914]

sorry but your photos are inhibiting me.

[@lanchanoinguyen2914]

life is fun out there and your subject and sight looks like in 1970s and no people in that,the view is limited and i see no point.

[@mattdayphoto]

The Peak Design Everyday Elephant, I’m a fan.

[@timmyd999]

The main upgrade for an RZ67 should be a set of wheels

[@WillemVerb]

lmfao valid point

[@timmyd999]

@leicanoct I borrowed Arnold Schwarzenegger

[@SamSilk]

@@timmyd999 where can I rent one? I'm told they're made in Austria, I live in France, delivery fees should be low.

[@mugshot749]

A truss for you're hernia.

[@JTroker]

Hahaha. But 4x5 is even heavier and people don't complain. Looks like for good quality need to make sacrifices. I don't complain about it, just put it in a bigger bag and carry it. And I'm happy to have a good camera which is making high quality photographs.

[@FolkeFox]

No One: Not a soul: Willem: *starts video standing on the couch*

[@BryanBirks]

Seeing Willem with a eye level finder is sacrilegious. Lmao

[@emilio1998]

Yeah man, i think that too hahaha

[@mutenroshisamaa]

Thanks for making me use Siri ...

[@ZachV93]

Glad to see you have a safe shell for your gear. Your last bag gave me anxiety man.

[@Neku125]

Wesley with the Safelight Berlin Sticker on the film case, cool stuff

[@WesleyVerhoevePhotography]

well spotted! those guys are great!

[@squigglyline22]

The moment you check out red licorice’s albums and realize his tracks are all over willem’s, joe’s and Corey’s videos 🙌... It’s my favorite soundtrack to shoot to these days!

Willem : Standing up on his sofa Me : Already this video gonna be good

[@david0ung09]

Hey Willem, I’d love to see a video about how you’re finding your Fujifilm X-Pro2!

[@prodbyscars]

agree. just bought an xpro1 :)

[@brntgudn]

i know this video is old but that tripod carry tip is a game changer!

[@emendoz1]

I love my Mamiya RZ67! It's been a workhorse since the 1980's. I think I'll take it out today.

[@Vega.pdf35mm]

Sell it to me

[@emendoz1]

@@Vega.pdf35mm That’s like selling one of my kids! I love that camera.

Always my most anticipated thing on every Sunday edit: every Wednesday now it seems

[@kieleenasmith196]

Absolutely love your camera set up and photo style 👌🏾👌🏾✨

[@mahadmusse1594]

I’ve realised your voice has become less monotone, I’m very happy for you.

[@Shmyrk]

I’m gonna title this kind of subtle dig an “after burn”. You mention what you deem a “fault” in someone, by complimenting how great it is that its gone. They can only be internally and retrospectively offended, because if was after all, a “compliment”. Thats professional level passive aggression.

[@iamcoleee]

Datman lol chill out hahaha

[@mahadmusse1594]

Datman this is the funniest comment i’ve ever gotten

[@whatjusee3307]

Might cop that viewfinder and handgrip what Wesley said about it being cumbersome Is so spot on lol

[@TheAlonsorh]

Siempre es un buen día cuando Willem sube un nuevo vídeo, greetings from Cancún, México.

[@emilio1998]

Exactamente hermano jajaja

[@robertrhoads2696]

I have been looking for a bag for my RZ67. I added the bag to my Amazon wish list for Santa to find. Great video!

[@SuperCacapedo]

So are we just gonna pretend this “making pictures” phrase isn’t throwing us all off

[@squigglyline22]

SuperCacapedo I assume it’s the Belgium speaking in him ^^

[@SuperCacapedo]

squigglyline22 lolol that’s a good guess but how do we explain Joe Greer using the same phrase, we must get to the bottom of this

[@andregonzales7711]

Making pictures has nothing to do with an accent in my opinion, to me it’s not just “taking pictures” because there’s such a process. It’s not just a simple click and go. You have to think about composing not to mentionThere’s editing and stuff after

[@SuperCacapedo]

Andre Gonzales So it’s the process of creating a whole scene within the frame through seeing, composition, and post processing. I like that! I’m with it 👌🏼

[@squigglyline22]

@@andregonzales7711 I agree 100%!! That is why I said it must have been the Belgian influence. I was guessing since Flemish is a germanic language and 'Verbeek' is definitely not french it stems from the same root maybe. I am from Germany and no one here takes pictures, we all 'make photos' in German. Ernst Leitz and Carl Zeiss would turn in their graves if we suddenly decide to just take them over here ;)

[@rironald3]

Awesome video! Peak design really has some nice camera bags, I bought their messenger bag a few years back and I'm still using it! Main thing I like about your videos is the beats when showing your photos! Fuego!

[@analoguenerd9285]

Went to a second hand camera shop last month to check RZ67/RB67, and found them way bigger than I expected! Considering the capability of my neck, I ended up with a Mamiya 645, also a very nice model!

[@DualPixelCreative]

Great photo's man.. Really enjoyed learning more about your setup too!

[@stevenroberts9172]

That backpack tripod trick changed my life!

[@AeromaticXD]

I LOVE the colours in your photos!

[@WillemVerb]

Thank you!

[@AeromaticXD]

Willem Verbeeck you’re welcome

[@anthonymiller8979]

Love the tripod carry tip. Will try that method for sure

[@CousinJamess]

just got the handle and prism finder for the rb67. excited to use it 😩

[@haystack1893]

New sub here can’t wait for whatever you have to bring! 😂 I don’t know why but it is so satisfying to watch film photography. I am a digital photographer but I have to try this out one day!

[@KodakBoy]

Com 720 yes I encourage you to try out shooting film, it will definitely make you think for every shot especially with medium format

[@fairwayfrank]

Willem, another interesting video. Thanks. I've got a right-hand grip (with a double-stroke film advance/shutter control for one-handed operation) and prism finder on my Bronica SQ which makes for a nice walk-around set up. Heavier than the SQA without the grip and prism, but still lighter than my RB67.

[@zebrahead89]

I'm seeing a Safelight Berlin sticker on Wesley's film case :)

[@Fairychild432]

Great video, your obsession with old cars is real. You could probably make a photobook with just cars and name it something different instead of "badly repaired cars" book. I want to suggest featuring your gf more in videos or maybe do a thrifting video.

[@daniellesalazar921]

i love the colors & everything on these photos

[@WesleyVerhoevePhotography]

yoooo that was a great morning! yours came out soooo nice and clean, nice work!

[@WillemVerb]

Too much funn man!

[@Kentanyl]

Which rz model do you have? Also did you have to replace the rubber on the bottom of the camera? Mines got electrical tape down there, but i cant seem to find any rubber replacements, thinking about picking up some leather peices for it tho

[@eccojammed]

11:02 i paused the video right there and said "holy sheeet those colors!"

[@WillemVerb]

Thanks Vape god

[@huyvu9306]

Willem, what's the specific name of the tripod you're using? I'm looking for one for my RB67 as well. Thanks!

[@metalfingersfilm]

Great video, as always Willem. Interesting to see you venturing into more gear orientated videos! Excited to see what you have cooking for winter! ;)

[@TheSH1N1GAM1]

Great video! I’m so glad you share all of this with us.

[@sonygoup]

Wow oh wow that's huge. I wanna get one but the size. My Bronica ETRSI is gonna be my work horse until I figure out if it makes sense for me

[@ioegreer]

sick rick

[@leenkestens45]

I could watch this for hours!

[@cjmarshall3642]

Hey Willem, what’s the name of the tripod you use? New to the medium format world and not sure what to get that’ll be good for the rz67. Appreciate what you do bro!

[@tuchenciotuch3976]

Nice paperlike lamps. The backpack seems nice, does look like an elephant haha

[@jmiscischia]

And that's why I love my Pentax 6x7 :-) Nice video Willem

[@JTroker]

Pretty good and smart.

[@momoxh]

i have a very similar setup, but with AE prism finder, this whole setup is so damn heavy, i don't know how you can hold it with one hand, amazing

[@erwnalejo]

That tripod hack tho 🤯

[@wonderfullymademedia]

That film look is beautiful af

[@RS-Amsterdam]

That bag is awesome !!

[@mcconnj2]

You have the RZ in on its side in the peak bag, how is this position on the focus knobs? Ive been looking for something smaller to carry mine in.

[@KontezWRose]

great video, really waiting on that x-pro2 video

[@WillemVerb]

Will have to get to that soon

[@Iggie1970_1]

Hey Willem, you added a few nice things to your Mamiya setup. Looks way better this way. I also didn't know Charles Michel has a twin brother living over there with an "aka"... In all seriousness now; is Wesley 'one of us' as well ? Grtzz

[@andresdiaz2578]

I usually have a camera bag whenever I do street photography. But I often worry about pickpocketers whenever I travel even though I haven't encountered one and I hope I don't but how do you deter pickpocketers from snooping into your camera bag when you do your shoots.

[@mahmoudshoots]

Can you please make a video on how to use the flash with RZ/RB system?

[@olisatasie-amadijr.9212]

Hey Willem, what type of cord or the name of the cord do you use to connect the flash to the mamiya

[@alvaromonje6804]

We need to see that flash in action. Greetings from Spain!

[@Devopsmasood]

Hi Willem, great video as always but this time about your tools that you use to create your art. I am planning to buy a good daily camera, laptop backpack with my hard earned money! What is your opinion on the comfort level of the shoulder straps? I heard people saying it is not comfortable.

[@bbayek5573]

Amazing video - I love Mamiya RZ 67, how would you compare it to Pentax 67?

[@richardsalinas4258]

How do you find spots for your photovlogs? That could be a cool topic for a video!

[@ndezha]

is there a place or website to grab a rz67 for a reasonable price? or can you shed light on what a reasonable price range is for this camera?

[@punkrachmaninoff]

reeally like the promaster 'impulse small backpack' lately. it has a thingy for properly holding the tripod on the side, so as to AVOID smashing everything in the thrift shop... 😂📸

[@joaofezasvital]

do you consider getting a digital back for the mamiya?

[@tristanasT]

love RZ67..please make video about flash

[@Gregorio416]

Hello all! I have a Mamiya RB67 ProS and have been thinking about moving up to the RZ. I am quite sold on the quality of the newer lenses, but are there any drawbacks I should look out for? Should I stick with my RB? Is there another camera in this price/quality range I should consider? Thank you all in advance :)

yo yo stop playing games we need a new and updated video on how you scanned and edited the film from this video, colors are so brown! I love it! also, advice for when I get scans from the lab? my lab does bmp and not tiff, their scans are also super digital looking... my scans at home w/ the v600 are flat and imo just how I want them, but I'd like to speed up my scanning and editing process.

Why did these portra 400 look like underexposed or under-developed? With loss of the shadow details, is this due to the post processing effects
