PJ the 6th birthday clown is absolutely harrowing and explains everything
Young Wiggles The Clown😆
there’s something so endearing about the unpolished look of disposable cameras. also i’m always amazed by you and sophie’s eye for photography
!!!! this is extremely cool!!!! and makes me want to get the three disposable cameras i've had for the last decade or so finally developed
also FRANCIS
Really love photography specially when it has that home film feel to it
It took me a bit to realize you & Sophie were wearing matching red puffer jackets, which is super adorable 😊
such a lovely vibe! Interesting to see how such a cheap lense can produce such captivating photos if the right person is behind the camera, great video!
“So naturally I’m not gonna watch it and just figure out how to do it for myself” I’ve just started to crochet right now and that is such a mood, I’m just like “I don’t need a pattern for this it’s fine”
there’s also the pro of not having to get the photos developed and still getting “film” photos, which is neat if you just like that look, and also there’s much less of a limit to how many you can take so you’re more likely to end up with some pretty good quality photos still
it is a chilly day today and i watched this on my break from work, having a cup of tea and eating cereal, and it felt so so nice. loved this style, loved seeing a bit of brighton and loved the creativity. this is quintessential youtube for me. thanks for always bringing such good and comfortable content, pj!!! 💘
one of my favourite little "secrets" of Brighton is quadrophenia alley, from Quadrophenia, the film about the mod scene. There's a mural for my Mum's friend Mike Dobie as he sadly passed a few years ago. Makes me proud to see a mod revival musician who knew the family immortalised in such a beautiful town.
im currently studying photography at uni and creative stuff like this is what made me fall in love with it
im an avid brighton goer, and im fairly certain the qr code at 5:23 linked to a presave screen last time i checked ! :> very cool. brighton is such a beautiful place to photograph
i can imagine you were freezing though eughh, brighton in the winter is painfully cold
this is such a cool experiment! if you’re looking to capture that disposable camera vibe with film but don’t want to have to throw away the camera after each use, there’s a company called lomography that make reusable “disposable” cameras! they’re still very simple, cheap plastic type thing (no zoom or anything) but they have a working back hinge so you can get the film in/out without destroying it. I have one and it’s pretty fun to do this type of thing with, capturing memories n all :]
YESS I LOVE CAMERA AND FILM CONTENT FROM PJ
5:24 i took the leap and scanned the code and it took me to a song called paris hilton by an artist named sonnyjim, the purist
it's actually a cool track!
i feel so incredibly lucky to have basically grown up watching pjs content change and mature over the years, it's been an extremely wonderful 8 years of videos that genuinely make me appreciate a single persons mind
Bonus points for attaching a flash. You really get the disposable camera vibe by using bad on-camera flash.
The QR code takes you to a linktree of an album called White Girl Wasted by Sonnyjim and The Purist
is it a good album
your vlogs are always so chill and such a vibe, and this was super fun to watch! the shots turned out rlly nice :')
Can I just say PJ, I love your videos and what you've been putting out recently. They're so well put together and I always feel much more at ease after. You're always trying something new and creative. As someone who's been trying to push myself to try things I feel like doing more often, these have been a big help. Thank you.
For the whole video I couldn't stop thinking that it looks like we've finally found Waldo
Loved this and it was fun getting to see Brighton! It looks like a really nice town. Your photos of all the art are so good!
I used to love photography and have been missing it, so might try this myself thank u pj !!!!
this was really fun ! it reminded me of the time when I took that kind of camera during school trips and such. point and shoot lense, it surely sounded like a fun dyi. I'll definitely check it out❤️❤️
I am off to Southbourne for a weekend away and this video inspired me to buy a disposable camera as I've never used one before I always love how your videos inspire me to try something I've never done before!
thanks for broadening my horizons!!
Great timing, I was just talking about doing this the other day. Thanks for sharing all your fun, crafty, experimental projects!
"kind of wanted the results to be a little bit bad so it didn't feel like a complete waste of time" It think I totally get that too!
photography has always seemed intimidating because of all the talk about lenses and aperature and iso and all that mumbo jumbo, but the way you speak about this experience made a lot of sense to me and my little brain! thank you for taking us around brighton!
this was so fun! i don’t have the tools to do this right now but i love the look of these pictures. been getting back into film photography and there is something really nice about the imperfections of film photography that i think you also captured using this lense
came from the stream, this is such a cool trend/idea! your photos turned out so good, id be so curious to see how it shoots in better weather!
So cool!
I love the warpy vignetty
Legit thanks for making this video. It's sent me down a rabbit hole that has reignited my interest in photography.
pj your content was my childhood, I’m now a freelance videographer so seeing you do photography content brings me joy. Keep killing it & inspiring 🙏🏼
The photos are gorgeous! This was really fun.
Omg it works so well
so what this video taught me is that i need to visit brighton bc those spots look super nice!
I have an analogue point&shoot and I absolutely love it!! There’s something special about only having 36 photos on a roll and having to wait to see how they turned out
This is super cool looking! Love the photos. Seagulls did a great job as well)
i’m mainly a film photographer but this seems like such a good way to get close to the feel without the cost! thanks for sharing, good shots pj :P
I'm taking my first ever film class this semester and this was really fun to see! I remembered watching your video on lenses way before I even knew the basics of photography let alone filming, I just rewatched it and it was great to look back on with the new knowledge under my belt! I really want to get into making short films but as a broke college student I think I'll stick with my phone camera for now 😅
this is sooo cool omg!!
such a cool video
Wahhhhhh 😭 Beautiful shots 😍
something quite admirable of pj is how he sees something he likes and does it, if it was me this idea would been stored in my mind and then forgetten with time hahaha
Very fun hack and cool pics!
My goat
No way!! I am experimenting on this as well right this moment. I got a fuji disposable though, the lens housing is quite different so I'm still figuring out how to properly put it in place.
the bart simpson w the mask is an reference to a song mf doom featured on im pretty sure :0 !!
I don't know why the "googling random keyboard smash" was so funny to me, but it really hit different 👌👌
Pretty cool ayy
brighton is beautiful!
oh i loved this video, makes me want to pick up my camera again!
I'm pretty sure that the film winds into the cartridge, you could have shot the roll first and then destroyed the camera for the lens, or alternatively shoot it with the lens covered and you would have had a free roll of film and a lens.
such a good vibes video ! looked rlly fun to film too (made me go haiiiii :3 /j)
idk why but it was satisfying
For anyone interested in trying, here are three superior alternatives:
A) Instead of buying a new disposable camera only to avoid using it, visit any nearby film lab and request used disposable cameras. They will often provide them for free.
B) Purchase a disposable camera, cover the lens with black tape, and take all the photos. This action will wind the film back onto the spool. Then, open the camera and either use the film in your analog camera or give it to someone who will.
C) Buy a disposable camera, carry it with you for a week, take the photos yourself, open the camera, and develop the film.
Kinda reminds me of the helga lense you could buy that was also basically plastic…I used it a couple of times on my DSLR but it was very hard to use in dark situations, much like this lense. But the effects were really cool.
Pj looking like a whole neon where's Wally, who lost his white stripes
Aha! I got him! The disguise almost threw me, but I gotcha, Waldo!!! 🎉
Peeg is not afraid to get hammered!
This felt like playing pupperazzi all over again.
💚💚💚
Brighton is so pretty, I'd love to visit one day
PJ there’s still tons of Pokemon at the pier and everywhere else in Brighton :’)
Does anyone know if this works for Lumix cameras? saw somewhere that it doesnt for Canon
will it work on a dsrl?
Damn, these photos look awesome! Now all i need to do is buy a disposable camera, and a normal camera. xD
This is so cooooooooooooooooool
the chromatic aberration is the best part of it tbh
When PJ looked through the donut, he looked like "Where's Waldo".
you should try a 3d printed lens
how'd you attach the lens to the cap?
the qr code is a song lol, quite good tho!
What sort of post processing are you doing on these shots? I’ve just made the same thing for my own camera and it isn’t coming out quite as ‘disposable’ looking as I hoped
Do you use automatic mode or Program AE when taking a shot?
The QR code is someone’s music ❤
Ayo what's sean doing there at Sophie's birthday party?! You lucky man, getting to hang with him
what camera are you using pj?
Does the Sony have no IBIS?
Should have done it with fuji with their film recipe's
5:24 it's a link to music! didn't give it a listen yet tho
Where's Waldo? Good Video. 😊
Can u put smartphone interchangeable lenses on this ...use the lens clip on the cap and show us the results
My first attempt at making one of these was a failure. The lens in the FunSaver was different. So disappointing but I've ordered another to have a go again. You should make the focusable version but you'll need access to a 3d printer.
If you have a DSLR it wont work.
QR code looks like someone's band
Why not put 3 lenses in front of it, with focus control
QR code links to music, if anyone was curious
They're so expensive now tho :(
were those raw images or edited?
I wonder how this would look on a digital camera without a shutter 🤔 I may have to find out
Lesson of today: Don't whip your nubbin out at a moments notice
🦆
Took a screenshot and skewed the QR code
It's an 8 song playlist called white girl wasted 😂
I saw you and Sophie as me and my friend just walked out the north lanes filming, you made me stop and turn around! wanted to say hi but didn't want to bother you !
What is his camera
Sony A7S
6:42 you look a bit like the sun baby from teletubbies
Hey PJ, we actually make disposable camera lenses like the one you made! We would love to send you one check you DMs :)
Bro, honestly... did you edit these photos, they look heavily edited to look like a film
😊💙🖤💕💞✨🎉

wasted an entire roll of film, you could have respooled it vefore opening the camera
