I’m not a full time photographer, weddings and senior shoots only occur once in a while. Should I curate anyway?
Free preset
A good tutorial!
Thank you!
Amazing ❤
great video dude! thank you! super simple
Need your help! What style of editing do you suggest for baptism photography? ( dark environment)
hello sir can i used this method on my sony a7cii camera? thanks for your answer :)
Hi, can I confirm that these are creative luts?
POV you just exposed your film knowing you did something wrong so you googled it and are now a smarter film photographer
Still waiting for you to try them on a photo that was shot in studio with flash or strobes. Cause the presets only work with photos shot with natural lighting. 😅 … or make a version of it for studio shot photos that would be perfect. ❤
If you share a RAW photo shot with strobes I will 110% make a video to show you just that 😁
Thank you! So easy to follow
Hahaha amazing
Lol
Brb, leaving some cinestill under my pillow

Hi, Are the AI tools available in all Capture One packs?
Hey! The AI tools are currently available in the Instant Everyday Pack ... our development team will be working on adding more to other packs! Stay Tuned!
Yeah, I got them all right. 1) the DR of the film just doesn't compare to the modern day DR of SLR cameras. Her dress has much more detail in the folds and creases in the digital photo Edit: I posted and then felt the need to say; the DR doesn't compare, but the color contrast of the film seems more pleasing to the eyes. I think you guys might help yourself by compressing the luminance a bit. 2) this is the easiest one. There is that weird banding/lining artifact of color correction on the out of focus rocks but especially handrails and posts. 3) The banding from the last one was there but not so obvious and it could be the way the lens resolved the out of focus background, but this time what gave it away was the sky. There was slight grain in the sky on the digital image and none in the film and in fact, maybe it was YT compression, but I feel like I could see the scan lines in the film sky where the older machine just can't reproduce the natural grade of whites and yellows in the sky. The presets look great though. I don't have $70 to wantonly spend on presets currently, and I think they would need some slight adjustments on my end, but I think the average person buying a photographer's work wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Not that those people really care these days anyway.
I love these videos and find them so helpful. I'm brand new to shooting film and seeing them side by side with digital is very helpful. I'd love for y'all to do this with all your preset packs as I own pretty much all of them!
No it wasn’t that hard to see which ones were film. The difference is bigger than you think and it’s not just about colours and grain. There is a depth that is nigh on impossible to get with simulations.
#1> FILM ON RIGHT #2> FILM ON LEFT #3 FILM ON LEFT FYI, this is a completely non-standard test, as the comparison images are not exact duplicate compositions, and this affects color perception. Also, Monitors have a million variables. You would have to embed all settings in the 2 images, make a single side-by-side composite, and then choose an application to view them in (e.g. lightroom) to have consistency across the spectrum of viewing.
Mastin Labs videos are better than Netflix :) Please release them more often like you guys used too - those longer ones with live editing, thanks
1:50 and 5:12 don't jive. Good or bad for street?
I don’t have the 3 dots 😢
Hi @NatSingerFitness are you using Lightroom Classic or Lightroom? Lightroom Classic is only available on Desktop and won't look the same. If you'd like some 1-on-1 help please email support@mastinlabs.com whether or not you've purchased presets from us and we'll make sure to get you up and running. Thank you for your view and question!
@@mastinlabs Hi :) I have both, but tried on the same as you did.
@@NatSingerFitness Hmmm werid. Def reach out to support, Sally-Ann will be happy to help you out! Have a great day!
Thanks mr. Kirk! I've noticed that the polaroid frame in this video is different in texture from the ones I have in the Print section of Lightroom, is there something I'm missing?
I didn’t catch the part where you explained why the photo has to be backlit? Is that because you push the exposure up?
The main reason we recommend backlighting for a light and airy look is that it provides soft, even illumination on your subject. When the sun is behind your subject, acting as a rim light, it creates a beautiful glow around them. Critically, it also means your subject isn't being lit from the front by harsh, direct sunlight. This backlighting, especially when the sun is low in the sky at around a 45 degree angle or less behind the subject, bathes them in soft, diffused light. It's almost like the world's biggest softbox! This'll give you a great foundation for an evenly lit, glowy portrait. In contrast, front lighting from the sun can create hot spots and dark shadows, especially on faces, leading to a harsher look. Side lighting can be dramatic but tends to split the face into a very bright and very dark side, which goes against the soft, airy aesthetic. Backlighting is all about the quality of light it provides soft, even, and flattering which is perfect for a dreamy looking photo. The pushing of exposure in the edit is a separate step, and not directly tied to the backlighting. But pushing exposure cab help achieve the bright, airy final look. Basically it helps to have a good foundation of soft light to start with. The only exception is when backlighting is combined with other attributes like a busy background or non-neutral wardrobe and then, backlight alone isn't enough for the light and airy look. Hope that helps! :D
Can you do more samples on different lighting conditions? Including photos shot in studio with artificial lightings.
I bought one of your preset packs… and they only work great on natural lighting mostly under the shadows but they look very terrible on direct sunlight and or photos shot in studios.
We can absolutely post more in different lighting conditions. Also if you are having trouble getting the look you want please reach out to support@mastinlabs.com. Our support team would be more than happy to take a look at your images to make sure you're getting something you love. Rooting for you!
While I love the Gold 200 look, I feel that the edit at 12:00 doesn't look natural. It's backlit and yet the subjects are extremely bright-it's lost natural shadow. While the tones are gorgeous, it looks fake. I guess it ultimately depends what the client thinks, and in this instance they'd perhaps want to see themselves with the baby, and their expressions, over realism.
AT :28 is that a scanner/digitizer?
Hey there! It's a Fuji Frontier SP3000 film scanner.
Hey, thank you for the video, it's super interesting! What is the software what you show for editing photos?
Hi! Thank you for watching. It’s Adobe Lightroom Desktop
@@mastinlabs thank you!
Thank you! This is so helpful! I do have a question - I don't see in the drop down where the white balance options are. I have the Fuji Film Original presets.
What kind of battery and film does it take
What are the names of the shown photographers?
Hi! In order of appearance Ben Christensen, Jeremy Chou, and Jenavieve Belair,
Great video! I love your presets! Using them with Sony.
I tried your presets but the look very bad on my pictures, shooting with Sony. Any help?😢
Hi!! We are very happy to help ... if you can send us a message via support@mastinlabs.com we can chat further!
Same here. And I notice they work better in low lighting & soft lighting… they look bad in direct sunlight or hard lighting.
Great, thank you!
In my lightroom classic, control bar doesn't move(it's grey and seems it's not activated). What should i do?
That really was a fabulous tutorial. Super helpful! Thanks! I just bought my final Mastin Labs Film Sets, now I have them all.
Is the sound mono channel or am I losing my mind?
Some of the photos were better before you applied your edit.Sometimes in life we don't get what we want. No disrespect to you and your wife. Be happy and go with what life gives you.
Thank you for your comment @nkflight4647! We appreciate you adding to the conversation. No disrespect taken. Enjoy your day!
I'm curious if there is any worry about electronics failing in these cameras? I know they were released in 1999 so they are fairly modern (no electrolytic capacitors), but im still concerned.
the year is 2024. they are now 200+
Very informative! Thank you. How can you connect the Pentax to an external flash?
The counter on my camera is broken but otherwise the camera works fine. What do I do then? Can I "feel" when there is no film left?
Bad review. You wanted it for portraits and yet you complain about quirks preventing you catching the dicesive moment; getting this in and out of your pocket? How about that? You complain that the viewfinder was designed by someone that never made a viewfinder before? At Leica? What a hideous comment. Please leave Leica-reviews to those how understand the beauty of this jewel.
Something w/ generative fill I constantly have problems with is that whenever I'm trying to add something regardless of selection method, generative fill almost always tries to make the object "bigger than" the selection area. It's always trying to go to the edge. For instance, if I'm adding a shoe at the end of a person's pant leg, it will almost always try to extend the shoe beyond the selection I made. Very rarely will it complete the shoe properly in the correct dimensions. You select more, it extends the shoe, but doesn't want to complete the shoe. IDK if that makes sense, but lmk if you know what I'm saying, thx
what file sir raw or jpg ?
Where do I get them?
