2024年に閉館長野県飯田市の飯田創造館の庭。 The Iida Souzou-kan (a community center) is scheduled to be closed in 2024 to build a driving test center for southern Nagano prefecture in its place. It has (had) a very nice park, so I tried to take a video of it so people have something to remember it by. Forgive the many production mistakes.

if it is better to overexplosed 1ev when shot b&w film?
My favorite camera
I like it a lot. Is there a way to determine power reserve on this watch? I like a second hand for that but otherwise I don't need it.
There's no way to actively check the power reserve, but it's rated at 6 months on a full charge. My experience with these solar watches is that if they're kept in a room that gets natural light and are taken outside every now and then, they just keep running and you don't have to worry about them.
@@ShinanoJake thank you
Set the apeture and shutter speed,then match the infinity mark to the apeture you've set.Then you can read off the amount of distance that will be in apparent focus,fiddly on such a small camera but doable with patience....................................
Hi. Can you tell me where is it, specifically? thankyouu
This is along the Yokokawa River in Okaya. The easiest way to get to this part of the river is to park at Suwako Heights (諏訪湖ハイツ) and you'll see the canal there next to the parking lot. If you walk up the canal towards the mountains, you'll see all the cherry blossoms if you're there in April. If you're coming by train, then it's maybe a 20 or 30-minute walk from Okaya station if you're walking along the north part of the lake towards Shimosuwa.
SRT 101 was my first SLR camera, I purchase it in 1973 if I remember right. I use to developed B&W film and printed photos in my darkroom setup. Still have some prints and negatives.

Do you live in Japan?
I do indeed! I'm in Nagano prefecture.
New subcriber here. Enjoyed the video. The first image at 3:18 is my favourite one. It's just an ordinary scenery with those apartments. Nothing special or eye-catching. But there's the thing. Simplicity, lightning and sharpness in details. And using the yellow filter gives nice contrast and pops out the clouds in the sky.
What a wonderful video!! Beautiful⭐️⭐️⭐️
Yeah I was saying to myself that the pictures did look really grainy, that is what 400 will do in day light. I would shoot 100 and maybe 200. Could be your future videos will show this, I'm only up to part 4 so far. You do have some really nice scenery to work with.
You have a really good eye for design. The SRT 101 is still a great camera in the right hands.
Hey! Been considering this watch, what is the lug to lug?
Roughly 41mm. It might be a bit bigger or smaller. I don't have any calipers, so I had to resort to a tape measure. The band width is 20mm, which I think should make it pretty flexible for aftermarket bands.
@@ShinanoJake thanks a lot, that really helps!
Nice! This is cool watch ⌚️!
I have a Rollei 35S and have taken some great photos but also some misses - usually close up because there is no parallax correction - in the viewfinder there are hooks on the framelines on the LHS which you have to change the composition to within the hooks when close. Use Hyperfocal distance to get as much in focus - easier with narrower apertures- Enjoy!
I happened to start using a Rollei35T a month ago when my Fuji Klasse S was broken. I am enjoying the tiny camera very much! 😊
doesnt seem like the film is advancing, might wanna double check and make sure the rewind knob is spinning while advancing the film.
It was indeed loaded incorrectly! I come to that unpleasant realization in part 3, but fortunately the experience taught me to be much more careful when loading film.
@@ShinanoJake oh just realized this is a pretty old video, glad you figured it out!
Quiz is good!
I have enjoyed this series so much. I just found a '66 srt101 that belonged to one of my relatives and have just been spending the day learning about it. Your series really exposed the process of learning film photography and the learning curve of operating the camera. I really hope you continue this journey.
Just got an SRT 303. Mint w lens for under $100
Have you tried the MC lens on your Sony? I just bought an SRT101 at a shop up the street from my house. 25 bucks with a 58mm 1.4 lens. Also bought a 50 macro and a 28mm 3.5. Ordered an adapter so going to try the lenses on my A6300 & 7R3. Based off your photos the lens appears to be pretty sharp. Liked the video
Thanks! Last month I got an adapter from the Minolta mount to E-mount and I've been trying it out. It's been working surprisingly well. I was expecting it to lose some sharpness but I haven't noticed any significant difference in sharpness compared to the Sigma 28-70 that I use on the a7. The big noticeable difference, of course, is that you have to manually focus. The lens can't tell the camera "hey, I'm focusing now" so it doesn't do the automatic zoom-in to help you get the focus precisely dialed in. There's probably some way to turn that on and off manually, but I haven't looked into how to do that yet. In the next video I'll show some comparison images that I took with the modern Sigma lens and the Minolta lenses. I've been impressed by how similar they are, although the Sigma has much rounder bokeh.
Thank you so much for this video, its great to see your journey with film photography my advice will be: try different film stocks (color and also black and white) try the cheaper ones first and go to differents places citys, towns, mountains etc. try with harsh ligh, soft light, blue/golden hour, and find people who inspire you even the old masters like fan ho, Garry winnogrand, Robert frank can teach you a lot of things keep in mind there are tons and tons of people out there with different styles and also enjoy the process. my first camera is a minolta XG-M a truly classic from the 80s gosh love that camera. btw your minolta also looks so good, its a really minty one i bet your grandfather was a great photographer hope you understand what im trying to say my english its not so good and again thank you.
Back when I was getting into photography, the top dogs were Nikon and Leica. If you had the bread, you got a Nikon F or Leica M4. Right below that were the Pentax Spotmatic and the Nikkormat. Then you had Canon FTb and your grandpa's Minolta. All of them classic film cameras; any of them would do the job. Being a broke high school kid, I had to settle for the Canon TL (the FTb's cheaper sibling). But it, too, was a fine camera-did the job until I got my Leica.
One of the advantages of film is you have a finite number of shots and making exposure notes is easy and a good way to improve your film photography. Also, start with B&W.
I think it’s hard to start with black and white because at least around me there aren’t labs that do black and white development. But ofc I guess you can use c41 black and white film
@@JoeStaehle check into developing the B&W film yourself. Easier than you think and highly satisfying.
@@BRLaue yeah I started doing my own development it’s a lot of fun I just want to get the hc developer for black and white but it’s expensive
@@JoeStaehle I reconditioned an old Beseler like the one I used in the ‘70’s. I alternate between that and a Canon Pro 300 depending on what I want to see in the print. Half the fun is trying out new developers with different film.
Sony Alpha is the Result of Sony electronics and Minolta Optics, because Sony Purchased Minolta to improve its own Cameras to lead them to Profesional cameras, taking advantage of Sony's expertise in Electronics and Film Recording. Sony is the Best in Recording Videos, Nikkon is the Best in Photography and Canon is an intermediate of Both Good Video and goos photography but not the best in any.
these pictures are really cool, nice shots!!
Nice photo!!
I use my Minolta SRT 101 lenses on my mirrorless camera with an adapter, it works great.
I want to give that a shot! Just doing some quick searching, it looks like adapters aren't too expensive, so maybe I'll pick one up at some point.
I love the grain
Nice photo!
czcams.com/video/5-WnFlLcP4w/video.html Just a footnote on this video: The lens stop-down button which acts as a depth-of-field preview only works when the shutter is cocked by activating the film advance lever.
OK. I own two of those, 1966 was the first model roll out in Japan. That's an early one with no hot shoe for flash and has the film speed reminder dial on the film door at the back. Later models in the 1970's had a hot shoe and a square receptacle on the film door to take the box-end of your cardboard film box. This tells you whether your film is colour, B & W, negative, slide film, and of course the ISO of the film. Originally took a 1.35 volt mercury battery (no longer available). You can use a current 1.5 volt battery which has a 1/3 of a f/stop discrepancy. The camera works fine with no battery except for the light meter. You can use a hand-held light meter or use the "Sunny 16" method. How that works; set the shutter speed to that of the film ISO or close as, and use the rule, F/16 for sunny condition, F/11 for part cloud and F/8 for full cloud and F/5.6 for dark, thick cloud. It's a great camera, I got my first one in 1977 when I was 13 years old.
You may be able to get voltage-adjusting battery inserts to allow use of modern equivalent silver-oxide batteries. I ran into the light meter discrepancy issue with my Nikon Ftn camera had to 'fudge' the ASA/ISO setting to allow for that but that was not linear across all lighting conditions. I found voltage-adjusting batter inserts (The Nikon required two of them) and they work fine.
goooooood!!!
These old Japanese cameras are gorgeous. Minolta is a great brand. Enjoy.
cool!
