  • Today, we're taking a look at possibly the cheapest way to get into shooting film, a Reusable Half-Frame 35mm Film camera: The Kodak Ektar H35. The Kodak Ektar H35 is a nifty little camera that allows you to shoot 48 or 72 film images on a single roll of film. It's comparable to the likes of the Kodak M38, The Reto Ultra Wide & Slim, and the Olympus Trip 35. How does it stack up against these other budget-friendly beginner film cameras? Let's find out.

    i don't know if it's because i am a totally amateur person in photography but i just loved the pictures you've taken with this camera! i have a kodak m35 and this one seems to has so much better results! anyway thanks for sharing the experience. it helped a lot and made me think about replacing my m35 for a h35. greetings from brazil!

    Hey Daniel, Great Video! What film did you use? Were the indoors photos shot with the same film?

      thanks so much! All the images were Fuji C200, doesn’t matter if indoors or outdoors, all was on the same :)

    Hi Daniel, this was really helpful i have been wanting to get this camera for a while now, but i’m a bit lost, how did you get the horizontal photos? Do you shoot by holding normal then editing and cutting the top and below?

    Hiya Daniel, great video!! Thank you, explains a lot ☺️
    I was wondering, can you advise a better beginner film camera? I want to use it for social use but mainly for photography experimenting!
    Ive got a Canon 5D so I know the understanding of a digital high end camera, but with film I’m not so sure haha

      Hi Izzy - If you've got a Canon 5D and Canon lenses, I'd recommend looking at the Canon EOS 3 or something like that, as your existing lenses will work. I've got a video about it on my channel. If you want something super beginner friendly and lightweight - check out the Olympus Trip 35. I've got a video about that also!

    I think the reason why it’s blurry is so that it doesn’t look bad on thier Slide and scan film scanner or something

    One more way to adjust - use a fast film (400/27) for gloomy days.

    So once i shoot ..i roll the film or i roll the film once i shoot 2 times

    • @DanielJamesBird
      @DanielJamesBird  Před 11 měsíci +1

      Roll every time you shoot! You’ll be able to roll it 48 or 72 times depending on what length of film you bought :)

      Advance like normal. If you’re creating diptyques just keep in mind you are and shoot the next pic to correspond with the last pic. If you are just shooting different subjects for each frame, don’t worry about that. Just point, shoot and advance!🙂
