- čas přidán 30. 01. 2018
- Showing you around the Kodak Ektralite 500 camera, which uses a 110 film cartridge. Lomo revived the 110 cartridge back around 2010 or 2011. These images are Color Tiger ASA 200 (film speed). Had a blast taking these images. Developed at home using a Yankee Clipper II tank and UniColor C-41 chemicals. So much fun. What a joy! I highly recommend.
5:31 “Let me open the back door so you can see the passage way”. Good one.
I am a stickler for using proper technical terminology. 😉
"now we're cooking with gas!" lol. thanks for this video! picked up a kodak ektralite 10 at a camera fair and i wanted to see how the photos would come out with the different types of film I've been looking at (and deciding which to get first...) Excited now :)
Hello, zozaleenie! I love Lomo's Peacock (slide/E-6) and color Tiger (C-41), but I have not tried Orca B&W yet. I think Orca is their hottest seller, as it has been sold out since June of last year (2017). Just recently Adorama or B&H stated they were expecting a restock in August. Be well.
I have this same model...
I thought 110 film was extinct, though...
It's a shame there's no more photo laboratories in my country, Mexico...
Done
You should use the Minolta Autopak 460t! It’s a wonderful little gadget!
I have one. You are correct. If Kodak Ektralite is the Chevy, the Minolta Autopak 4x0 series is the Cadillac.
Hii. I don’t know if you will still reply to this or not. I find your video really helpful and I’m planning to buy a used one from online but I don’t know what to check before agreeing to close the deal when we meet up (in a few days). I really hope you could help me out. Do I need to buy a 110 film to check if the camera is still working? Or I can still check if it still works without having to buy the film?
Greetings, Nabila. No need to have film. Just look inside to make sure the sprocket turns as you slide the film advance. Also make sure to have a fresh battery. Make sure you hear the camera juice up as the capacitor is charged by the battery. Sounds like a jet engine starting up (high pitch). Make sure the flash works and the indicator lights work, too. Best wishes to you.
Does the Ektralite 600 take the same battery as shown here or does it take the "K" battery?
Sorry for the late reply. I did not receive a notification. I think the 600 takes a 9 volt, not the k battery.
Could I still obtain images without a battery?
I found one recently but it had the battery in it since it was bought nearly 40 years ago. You can imagine how eaten away it was :/
Greetings. In most cases the battery only serves to power the flash, not power the shutter as in some SLR film cameras. You "should" be okay in bright outdoor shots not requiring flash, but indoor will be excluded. You can try to get a very fine sandpaper and sand the rust and battery corrosion off the contacts. I did that once to an old Nikon speelight I left in storage too long and got corrosion on the battery contacts. A little sandpaper might have you back in business and able to use the flash. Best to you. Be well.
Hello, I have a roll of that camera, is there any way to reveal it in my country, I have not found a place to reveal this type of roll
Greetings, Soy Mitchell. Respectfully, I am not familiar with the term reveal, but I take it to mean the same thing as develop. If not, please correct me. You can develop film at your kitchen sink. It is not difficult. The main thing is maintaining the proper temperature of your chemicals and closely watching the time your film has been in a certain chemical. There are many videos here on YT that will guide you through the process. I have one here devoted to 110 film, but it only concerns the things that are applicable to 110 film. I didn't cover the entire process of film development. If you have color negative film, you need C-41 chemicals. If you have color positive film (slide film), you need E-6 chemicals. If you have B&W film, you can use B&W chemicals. I wish you the best. Be well.
Is this white frame with Lomography Tiger sign part of the photography when you develope film?
Greetings. Yes, those are the frames in their entirety. If you were to send the film off for development and prints the framing would not be included. Only the photos themselves would be returned to you. Same with scanning at home. You could choose to scan only the photo portion, excluding the framing around the photo. I included them here only for context, so viewers could see the whole thing: photo plus framing.
@@room111photography5 thank you for your answer! It would look great if this would be part of the picture. I got Kodak Tele-ektra 32 about two weeks ago, and now I'm thinking of buying film to test it.. I think I will go for BW Lomography film.
Greetings from Slovenia
@@schmutzfabrikag5304 If you like the look of the entire frame, you can scan it that way, as I did in this video. Adds character to the shot. One day I hope to make it to Slovenia. It's a beautiful country. I'm praying Europe doesn't break into war again. Best wishes to you.
Hello, what should I do if the slider doesn't slide/advance?
Hello, Margaux: 1. Make sure you have pressed the shutter release button. I'm sure you have, but I have to state it anyway just in case. The slider will not advance if it is already cocked. 2. Open the film loading door and look to the lower left for a small sprocket. This is the sprocket that engages the mating sprocket in the 110 film cartridge. See if there is something in the teeth of the sprocket causing a stoppage or malfunction. If it is stuck, try using a dental pick or ink pen to manually turn the sprocket. Perhaps this is all it needs, a gentle helping push to get things moving again. If these don't work, the camera is most likely broken. Perhaps somebody dropped it at some time in the past and damaged it. Wishing you well. Good luck.
@@room111photography5 Thank you so much for your extensive reply, greatly appreciated! I will try the things you've mentioned and report back. It was working a couple of days ago when I got it from the attic after 30 years of collecting dust.
mom was using 110's till about 1998 when we kinda forced her to 35mm . Dad thought APS would be the way to go and I took one look at the camera and thought wow is that one cheap POS. bad argument so he got a very cheap 35mm just to prove APS is better and well look where APS went. the Camera's sucked. Ironically I shoot APS expired because it's fun. But screw the cartridges. I cut my own negatives now. Nobody has machines reading the magnetic strip , and about as useless as time stamps on the photos. usually out of date. But show Lomography 110 only in this camera above. Was a steal I thought and still is. and it was one of the top of the lines with the 200/400 think on the right side, (400 speed tended to have a section cut out , the 200's would have it all the way along thus pushing the thing in. Shot Red Scale and b/w in this so far. Photos turn out great. No clue about a 600, I know the 450? came out after the 500 and that was the end of it. Mom has a Stylite or similar name and a black Ektralite 10. the 10 tends to rip the lomography ones out on the end of the roll. the 500 doesn't.
interesting, you have a white switch for the ISO. (200/400) Mine's red. Yes I so love that capacitor. zap , but I do it anyway on disposable cameras cause it's cheaper :P First time didn't know, second time didn't it by accident.
That's interesting about dad sticking with APS. Funny story: many years ago I went to a friend's wedding and sat very close to the altar, first or second row. I was taking pictures with my Kodak APS and was shocked at the auto rewind upon last exposure. That camera began to whine loud and I became so embarrassed. Everybody was looking at me. I shoved the darned thing in my suit coat and buried it in my armpit to muffle the noise. That thing took forever to rewind. I was so angry that I never used that camera again. It was brand new...first roll of film and I didn't know about auto rewind and that incredibly loud noise. My point? Your mom wins the argument.
@@room111photography5 think dad was assuming wrongly that mom likes cartridge film. Problem with APS is the negatives go back in the cartridge. Compared to 126 and 110. Imagine if Lomography came out with 126. oh bother, this is why I don't allow others to throw camera's away. I'll keep them. the Fakomatic I'd prefer not as it requires dark to put it in. (sprocket shooting which I'm not big fan of. ) be just easier to have someone come up and cut 120 film to 126 and do the mold I'd think. Mom's got the Zeiss Ikon version for that. not a Kodak. I have a Kodak but it'll never take flash cubes again. Batteries..... As for APS again.. Figure Kodak's are junk, got a Fuji for backup and it uses standard AAA batteries (mine was new old stock, and amazingly the expired in Sept 2001 , still worked and hadn't leaked. I'll keep my eye on those . But it's more manual than most. It is loud however. It also doesn't have the same protections like Kodak has such as I could accidentally open the door smh. But anyway I just stuck some Color in the other day in the above camera. I've shot about 3 b/w and 1 redscale between 3 110 cameras. but with the 500 1 of each in the 500 now. other 2 b/w were with the horrid Star from Kodak made in China. the Ektralite 10 was from Mexico. SO that was another b/w and I only got the 500 because we couldn't find either that one or the Stylelite (that one has lens covers but still takes photos with the covers on so the photos will be interesting. Interestingly the Fuji APS I did get has the flashing Amber light for flash that the Kodaks the 110's had except this one Ektralite 10 and the Stylelite had the flashing amber light.
Should i throw away my 600 kodak camera? I have one and i dont know what should i do with it.
Should take a 9 volt I think.
Where can I buy films for kodak 600?
Greetings, Yeasmin. Some of the places coming to mind for 110 film are Lomography, Film Photography Project (FPP), Freestyle Photo, B & H, and Adorama. Wishing you well.
