maybe if i buy one i will take good photos
probably not baby but it’s okay 🤍
I’m an old guy and started watching and initially hated it
“Oh right his first film camera was an RB”
“Da fuq? For pull-apart?”
“No tripod?”
But then “Spain for 15 days and 10 rolls” and something in my whole mean spirited reaction changed. How to pace, understand, conceptualise a new place, new light etc and be confident and content on 7.5 frames per day.
Kicked myself in the ass and told myself to shut up and enjoy watching this guy share his love for his craft.
Thanks Linus, u got yourself a new fan.
🥹 it’s beautiful
ur beautiful
Yo can y'all make 4x5 film please

I would not be able to explain this any better.
I loved that photo willem took
Bro you’re so naturally gifted, it’s crazy
you posting more is literally a gift from above, I love it man. I've been with you basically since I started my film photography journey in 2019-2020
so glad to be back!!
You’re inspiring me try more colour work. Thanks! Your compositions really make those colours WORK.
So awesome to see how you've grown over the years, The Mama RB67 was the number one camera that I wanted after shooting with my Konica, so it was my first medium format camera. I followed a similar path to you and started developing my own film as well and it was magic to see the huge negatives from the RB for the first time. Thanks for sharing this Linus!
thanks for sharing as well!
Thanks for the video.
I really loved the rustic greenhouse.
Gorgeous shots! The RB was also my first medium format camera and one I’ll always be in love with 🫶 Loved all of the shots but that second shoot was so gorgeous! The colours look amazing
Those are some amazing shots. I can't imagine how excellent the actual prints are. I'm in love. I have that camera but needs work, I'm gonna have to take care of it ASAP.
as I primarily RB67 shooter, I understand completely what you were going through in this video. Photos were absolutely breathtaking though. ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
Thank you for this video! Your videos are great and are help inspire me as a photographer. I definitely plan to try out and purchase a medium format some day. Appreciate you.
I am glad I am not the only one who has trouble focusing the RB. Such a fun video!
i swear the focusing screen i had on my original one was different than this loaner. hard either way 😂
Loved this!! My first film camera's were my Grandpa's Nikkormat FT and Mamiya C33... I could never find info on the C33 as it seemed like everyone had the newer C330, but this just fueled my love for the camera's uniqueness. Took a lot of fun street shots and portraits of my girlfriend and friends over the last 2 or 3 years, and I've totally fallen in love with the square format. But just recently it started breaking down with sticky shutter issues. Watching this video makes me want to take it down to the camera repair place and have it fixed up again. Thanks for the inspo Linus!
get them fixed if it makes sense!! thank you so much for sharing 🤍
Great work as always Linus! I started my medium format journey with an RZ and I miss it dearly.
dude i´ve been watching your videos nonstop for hours now and I just can not comprehend how you´re not having a million subs already!?? These videos are insanely well produced and your photos are just incredible! keep up the amazing work brother!
Great video! Your impromptu shoot definitely gives me some inspiration to mix things up in my work, too. While a carefully planned and executed shoot is great, it's also nice when a little chaos is welcomed.
thank you so much!! get out and shoot a roll for me :)
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! Although sometimes the photos come out as you wouldn't expect, they have a look that only analogue medium format can give... I started shooting medium format with the Mamiya thanks to my university. They were precious moments that taught me a lot, a lot about the importance of taking a single photo and breathing between shots
nothing like film 🤍
Beautiful pictures man, love especially the first ones at the round window, and the close up portraits at the end🤩
thank you!!!!
Beautiful photos and great video too!
Really nice video and the photographs/portraits turned out well.. Glad to see more people, especially young people still using the RB67.. It's such a fantastic camera.. I still use it a lot for portrait photography! Well done!! 👏👏
I love the RB67, I use mine for studio portraits with the 180mm lens and use it for some landscape photos with the 50mm lens. The Mamiya glass is insanely sharp. I love it so much I got two new in the box extension tubes and love the close up and macro photography. This camera totally rocks it.
I have an RB67 too. Got it from my dad. Your story is relatable and makes me want to shoot that heavy piece of equipment more.
I love the colors on these photos, just found my grandpas canon a-e1 and trying to learn more about film
The Mamiya Rb67 was my first Medium format camera too but the Pentax 67 is definitely my preferred one. Im in love with it! Amazing videos friend, please keep them coming
thank you!! more on the way :)
Your content style is super sick! Love the storytelling and editing. Stunning shots too 👏
thank you so much!!
Great work, I’m excited to get a RB67 soon
Yeesss great work man! The shots sitting in the kitchen are fire, they got me talking out loud all by myself going "daaaamn"...
Going to have to try get a RB67 soon. Cheers!
Love the color in this series. A nice break from the typical overexposed-Portra look.
thank you!!!
Always love some RB67 love. The RB67 wasn't my first medium format camera, but it did make me fall in love with medium format photography. Those Mamiya lens may be heavy, but they're super sharp. Also, the mirror lock up mode paired with the leaf shutter lenses on that camera is amazing. I love doing long exposures at night with mine.
I really enjoyed you going back and scanning your old negatives though on the Frontier. That bit of detail was super fun to see, it really showed your progression as an artist in such a short time. Keep it up!
such an amazing system. thank you for sharing!!
Loved the intro. RB67 wasn't my first film camera, but when it comes to "serious" (I'm a total amateur) work it's my favourite. My best images have been taken on an RB/RZ.
What a hell of a first film camera lol. Mine was an s-rt 200 I got for $10 in a bag with a 45 f/2, a 135 f/3.5, a Vivitar 75-205 w a 2x multiplier, a Minolta flash, 3 rolls of expired film, and a weird screw on telephoto adapter that fits none of my lenses lol
I just bought one of these. Can’t wait to use it!
happy shooting!!
Great video dude! The photos from both shoots came out amazing
thank you dude!!
RB is the only medium format camera I use. It's my absolute fav. Great work as always Linus! ✨
thank you!!
Nice to see you back on CZcams!!
so glad to be back!
Very cool video. Nice to see Willem co-starring. I think we all have a nostalgia for our first camera. Yours is a cool one, but I so prefer the RZ to the RB. For one, the viewfinder is way brighter and it is so much easier to focus with, imo.
Do like your fun impromptu shots with the RB. Loved your honesty in showing your misses. We all been there. So glad your giving the channel some love again. Looking forward to the next one. Cheers.
thanks for watching!!
I absolutely loved this video Linus, more like these relaxed shoots & stories, the BTS fun was such a fun part of the video!
The RB67 while it is my second camera, I very much am in the early stages as were you shooting friends & random scenes around my local town but loving every weekend that It gets me out & experience the process & enjoy every moment, it has captured me in a whole new way that has made me love film photography so much more than ever before, so excited to see what comes next!
This video made me really curious to shoot pull apart film, it's probably even harder to get nowdays, I might have to stick with shooting gold & my binstax for now 😅
thank you for watching!! peel apart film is amazing but not worth the price these days lmao
not my first medium format camera (RIP C330), but I've been thinking about selling it for over a year and I think I'm just going to keep it. it's an amazing, all mechanical system. the 90mm is amazing and the 180mm is a portrait monster. the instax square back is the cherry on top.
Great video man. Glad to see new videos! Looking forward to more :)
glad to be back!
Great video! You can always count your footsteps for zone focusing if you have time. I always forget but it’s a good starting point.
TRUE!!
Great images. Inspirational .. my next splurge with be a medium format film camera
Yes!! Get into medium format
these photos are making me nostalgic for someone else's experiences
that’s what sad piano music will do to ya
the classic RB ❣️
beautiful photos
thank you gina!!
Unreal shot, love the work! 🔥
thank you!!
Such a good one! Loving these portraits 🔥
thank you so much
very happy to have found your page
hi!!! welcome
Love my RB67 too. It is a bit of a hefty boi to walk around with, but it is special. Loved getting some rolls developed by you from it as well.
i appreciate the support back then!!
@@linusandhiscamera dude you’re awesome. Love your work and look forward to seeing more of it
4:21 is a really cool shot
thanks bro!
I love the bit about how you got into the RB67 exclusively for pack film 😂 I got the RB just for the Binstax, and I have yet to shoot any actual roll film through it after 1 whole year
so glad i shot a roll of film
I’m about to venture into 6x7 for the first time, thanks for sharing this Linus ❤
good luck :)
Damn, makes me want to shoot my rb more often!
Can’t wait to see this in your workflow 🙌🏽
yesss! get back to using it!!
@@linusandhiscamera took it out in this morning, started to rain 😅 maybe next time
You can also connect flashes with pilot light to film cameras.
gotta try that!
I just got my rb67. not too easy to handle this heavyweight champion and after ruining two rolls of portra 400 we are bonding now. maybe one day my images are close to yours :) best greetings from Germany!
the intro is so fire dude
thanks brotherrr 🤍
Man this content is quality!!
Thank you!!!
Dude, amazing amazing amazing!! What roll did you use to take these pictures? Have these been edited in post? You're a truly gifted photographer.
I feel your pain with lugging one of these around Gibraltar, I did the same around Croatia and nearly broke my back... It's a great intro into medium format though for sure!
worth it tho 😂
LET’S GOOOOO! ❤
🤍
Now you've got me thinking I should use my new monopod with my RB67
might b up to something there brother
Wish I still had access to my first film cameras
i wish i had access to mine too, this one is a friends!
linus the GOAT
thank you 😭
really nice photos. So you just use modeling lamp from the Westcott to shoot?
damn that looks so easy to rotate, I feel like mine im doing a workout whenever I try to rotate it
this one is def on the looser side
love the video. what light is that? Is it the Flashpoint XPLOR 600? 🕺
Take care of yourself, Linus ❤
you too 🤍
Loved the Vid~!~
thanks man!!
Beautiful video 😊
thank you!!
I got a mamyia rb67 a few months ago and i got some of the best images i have ever taken
oooooo yesss! excited for uou
Love the on location shoots, Have you tried other rb focusing screens?
i have! this RB i was borrowing, mine that I originally owned had a very different one
I love your CZcams videos Linus
i love you so much
Yoooo hahaha I bought my first RB to shoot packfilm too! Back then it was the cheapest manual camera you could shoot packfilm on, cheaper than the Mamiya universal and probably half the price of the Polaroid 180. There’s this really cool back by Nagaoka that let’s you shoot two shots on one sheet of packfilm so you can fill the whole frame without leaving any negative space. I’ve also had a hard time focusing with the RB but two things have helped me the Type E focusing screen that has a split prism so you can just line up the two halves in the center to confirm focus and second, the chimney finder which cuts out more light than the waist level finder and gives you a slightly magnified view of the screen. Loved seeing your peel apart shots maybe one day we’ll get a video of you using some of that packfilm you have left 👀👀👀
gonna need to make a video on it sooooon! need to get the E type focusing screen
What good is the type E focusing screen because by the time you focus and recompose its out of focus lol
@@hyprz what you’re saying would be true of any focusing screen. This one just makes it easier to confirm what’s in focus
That peak design tripod was struggling for sure. At least my carbon was does with the RB67 squatting on top. 😂
😂 tripods around the world are struggling fr
dig this man
rb67 gang
yesssss
These posts are making me want to buy a film camera so bad!
do it 👀
Thanks for inspiring us. The model is a pro s but, the lens ? 65 mm ?
Were these all with Cinestill 400D? All of these shots came out excellent.
yes!! sad i forgot to mention it.
AYY shout out Asheville and Raleigh :)
the hometown
@@linusandhiscamera I didn’t know you had a lab in Raleigh! I would’ve loved to have you do a roll of mine!
7:47 this nearly killed me
Fire
thank you!
Damn what a good video. what lens are you using on the RB?
it’s a 127mm f/3.8! and thank you!!
You and Willem should start a podcast fr
we rlly should
Great video
Thanks!
great images
thank you dudee
❤❤❤
i just got rid of my rb, i miss it already, but its just too big and heavy and not practical for what i want to do. ended up grabbling a pentax 67, which although still pretty impractical, is a better option for where i am at right now
miss mine too. love the pentax 67 though. it’s perfect for my everyday use case
give the people more videos of friends goofing around pls
deal
The nostalgia is killing me
What’s the best bag to carry this kind of camera ?
Hey man i live on a boat in oriental, nc and i go to asheville alot! We should collab sometime, i have bags and bags of old (but fridge stored) film to try out!
I dont ever use this camera without a tripod anymore, a tripod is a must so that you can avoid the slightest movement but also to be able to have it on a tripod safely and be able to think and be relaxed instead of carrying a tank on your arms. cheers
How do you deal with so many shots being out of focus? For me increasing depth of field by shooting at f8 or f11 is boring because i want my bokeh! Every time I get an out of focus shot I cry a little. 😅
Where did you buy your book wich you use for film holder? :) cool video i'll sub
This is my current camera and my first medium format. It’s clear that I definitely need a tripod lol! Did anybody have issues with framing because I’m lucky to even get 6 exposures per roll?
I think that’s a common issue.
definitely get your camera repaired. mine doesn't have that issue
if rb stands for rotating back what does rz stand for?
really? zayum!
ok man...@@linusandhiscamera
Hej Linus, did you overexposed the shoots with Gabi or did you shoot it on Boxspeed?
box speed!
I had no idea that's what RB stood for. I feel silly.
haha issok
What film do you use?
