You deserve so much credit for your ability to do true side by side/ shot by shot comparisons. This must have taken so much time and effort, I applaud you 👏
Thank you for your kind words!
Oh man, that would be really sad...
I thought I saw Fuji as more cool-green, but in your pictures, the Fuji was often a bit more warm than the Kodak.
Great work on creating this video, it was a joy to watch (except for the sad conclusion).
Ugh man, this is so frustrating. Just when I get into film photography, so many cool film stocks get killed by Fuji. I really wanted to try real Fuji film :(
Great vid, one of the best comparisons
Agreed. I really enjoy Fujfilm. I learnt colour photography with Superia 200. But like I said in the video, it is possible that Fujifilm might restart manufacturing. finger crossed 🤞
In Japan, they are selling Fuji-made film again, but it's not made it to wider global markets. Luckily, I quite like Kodak Gold.
Maybe in a couple of months, it will hit international markets again. I love Fuji stocks!
love the comparison and aesthetic in this video! kodak looks good to my eyes for landscape due to the "softer" look, but fuji also looks good in its own way!!
I think your effort was very worthwhile. Nothing beats a performance verification, to actually replicate a real world scenario with a test setup to determine and compare actual behaviour or characteristics, instead of only looking at data sheets. Looking at data sheets can be helpful, but is not always conclusive. Now we 'know' these stocks are almost the same, otherwise we would suspect only.
Awesome info ive been looking at the two stocks recently and Wondering if ones Better than the other.
Side note im also from BC although im from the interior lol
Thank you!
The bc interior is so much better for fall colours. I was in Christina Lake a few years ago during the fall. Gorgeous
@@robinferand yeah there's so much orange in the fall but summer is the best honestly
Could you provide the files of the scans with both film stocks in the same frame? When you were discussing them being "exactly the same" there appeared to be subtle differences between the two, perhaps it was changes in lighting conditions. It may be beneficial to have a future video with a randomized A/B "blind" sample so viewers can come to the conclusions themselves whether their preferred choice was consistently one stock over the other (indicating that there may indeed be some subtle differences), or if they simply couldn't tell the films apart (hence they are likely the same). It is more beneficial for people to come to conclusions themselves than to have someone articulate their conclusions as truth, as they say, "trust, but verify."
Is almost imposible for me view wish is Kodak 200 vs Fuji 200 first for the color of the letters and second for the size of this and my eyesight is not bad well I'll look for another video although this one interested me a lot 👋🏻
In the words of Claude Rains - who played the role of Captain Louis Renault in the movie Casabanca - "I'm shocked!, shocked!, to find that gambling is going on in here."
different cameras and lenses?
Same lens, same camera
@0:26 wtf did you say?
In Europe you can find fuji 200 at 10 dolars
insert They're The Same Picture Meme
Not sure how much sense it makes to compare with two different lenses...
Hi, it was the same lens. I would take a photo on the first camera then swap the lens. back and forth.
@@robinferandThe photos are labeled 28mm and 35mm though?
What I don't get: why Fuji 200 and 400 and cheaper than Gold 200 and UltraMax 400.
I know right? Film prices aren't checked so stores can decide basically. But at least in Canada, I seems to find it cheaper than the Kodak stocks!
from what others have said it probably comes down to packaging (and maybe even the film canisters themselves) which fuji has a greater resources for that allows them to sell it for cheaper (not 100% confirmed - just from word of mouth)
Kodak has been price gouging us since film became trendy with the younger generations.
@@AbdonPhirathonyeah it's like the brand Champion, you pay 150-300 dollars for a hoodie while in the 90s it was like 7-10 dollars😅💀 system is rigged af lol
