    Hey Leigh,
    I've also been following you for a number of years. I started out in film photography and in my personal opinion, no one should be allowed to call themselves a "photographer'" until they have taken a film black and white photography course, where you have to work in a darkroom, developing your own negatives, mixing the chemicals to produce the photos and develop the film, and all the processes in producing prints.
    It does cost a ton of money in film photography and I feel like people dont' understand and respect the full concept of photography unless they have actually worked as a darkroom photographer, because exactly like you said, it forces you to slow down and get everything right in camera. There are no "automatic" features.
    When each click costs you money, it makes it a lot more important and valuable to produce good content. Now, it's like someone can just go buy a camera, throw it in automatic mode, and call themselves a photographer.
    I started out with an A1, then onto a Minolta, and then a Rebel X, and finally, into the digital world.
    I did NOT like Nikon at all and I hated the menus. So I went to Canon and got a Canon T2i, then eventually a 60D, then to a 5D Mk IV, and now I'm shooting on a Canon R5. Now, when I do shoot, every single shot has a purpose and that is to sell that image.
    I'm glad to see that you are shooting film. It's pure bliss isn't it? And if you ever do decide to make your own darkroom, the smell of vinegar will take you back to that darkroom each time because the developer smells like vinegar, or maybe its the stop bath, but either way, I will never trade a day of that time for the world and all the cameras in the world.

    Hi Leigh, thanks for your videos over the years. I bough my first camera in 1972, a canon TLB. Been enjoying photography ever since, I even dabbled in darkroom work but with marriage and kids I stopped. Recently I have wanted to get my A1 and do some black and white.

    Really nice video!
    Also appreciating your journey into film :) I myself still have the Leica SL2S and various Sony bodies but I wandered through an MP and then Hasselblad 501 towards a Minolta 9, Fuji 690, DaYi 617 and now a Linhof Technika… Photography never gets old but realizing pressing that button will cause a spending makes you really slow down… and walking with a 6x17 pano camera or the 4x5 I need a second tripod - therefore great video!

    Film makes us plan the shoot. Film type, ISO, number of rolls we take for the shoot, how much can we spend on processing and printing etc.
    Digital is great for flexibility but I see so many taking hundreds of photos for 1 keeper for a static, controlled shot.

    I still sometimes use three tripods from the days of film: two # 4602 Tiltall Professional tripods Mfd. by C.M. Marchioni, Rutherford NJ. USA; and one # 4602 Tiltall Professional tripod Mfd. by E. Leitz inc. Rockleigh, N.J. USA. I have other tripods, but I like how these were built to last. Slower to use than a ball head, but they are sturdy and precise, well suited for their purpose. But they are not for hiking or traveling light.

    Greetings from Belgium, maybe next time it'll be an international giveaway :). And nice film pictures, I wish to try one day but it's already an expensive hobby as it is :( I only have a Nikon Zf with the 40mm F/2 and the 24-70 F/4.0, no tripod yet. Still learning the basics

    Every time one of your vids pops up I always wonder how I would photograph you. I believe I would chose interior soft light and depict you hard at work in an enterprise that highlights your dedication and hard work. Your inner self. No sexism or scabby tats. This may give Raymond a few ideas. If you wish to play real Nikons go with F2, with the 70-210 zoom. That is what I used before you were born. Best wishes.

    Hi Leah great video info about Tripods much appreciated. I don't use one since i have to keep my gear light , long story don't ask lol but may look into one in case i don't win.😂 best of luck to all. Glad to see you doing so well and continued good health.

    When you said ASA in your video I went deep diving to see if film had gone back to the old ways of ASA, nope - still ISO. You're showing your age...Lol. And you don't have just one ISO, you can push or pull film. When my wife gave birth oh so many decades ago, I took my camera into the birth room. I obviously didn't want to use flash so I bought ASA 800 and pushed it to 1600, the results were a bit grainy but not too bad.

    I have a Peak Design Travel Tripod (two of them actually) which are my go-to, but I also have a Platypod for essentially putting a camera on the ground, a Joby Gorillapod for attaching a camera to weirdly shaped objects, a Magic Arm for attaching a camera to anything clampable, and a Gitzo full sized tripod with a gimbal head that I use for when I am working sports where I can stay in one place, or sometimes I use that setup for wildlife. Different tools for different jobs.

    Hey Leigh, it seems from your recent videos that you are fully recovered from your back surgery (hope that the case). I am a hobbyist photographer and 71 years old. I bought my first real film camera while on my honeymoon (October 1980) in San Francisco. I purchase a Pentax ME super with a 50mm lens. Use this camera for many years. Taking photos of my daughters growing up; vacation and family gathering. Lots of photo albums of priceless memories. Today I own a Nikon Z50 with both kit lenses (great travel camera). I own a [Pro] master professional foldable Tripod ( similar to the foldable Manfrotto you show on this video). Also own a Joby small table top tripod, that supports both my IPhone (obviously) and my Z50. I mainly travel with this tripod, since it very small, but very limited in use. I never take a tripod when I travel (vacation) to Europe, my [pro] master is heavy and bulky. The Manfrotto Element would be prefect for overseas travel’s. You guess it, I will be entering your giveaway.

    Film definitely slows you down. We get so used to having a camera like an Uzi in the digital world. Tripods are like bags, none are perfect and then you try another and it might be better. I have an older gitzo that is very small though not in the league of your give away.

  • @mick1967

    Film photography no longer makes any sense to me at all. I had it for 25 years and hated waiting for the photos. And afterwards you didn't know why photos were incorrectly exposed because there was no EXIF data. Today it's an esotheric thing of youngsters trying to be hip.
    If you need the analogue feeling, deactivate the play function, the exposure adjustment of the viewfinder and wait 3 weeks until you look at the photos on your computer or print out the photos after 3, 4 weeks without looking at them before. And then you'll be on the road like an analogue photographer without having to load films.

    • @LeighAndRaymond
      @LeighAndRaymond  Před měsícem +1

      I don't agree that it's all youngsters trying to be hip but I do agree that you can get the analog look and feel from a digital camera - I have a video coming out about it soon!
