    I started into photography back in 1976, so of course on film, but on very simple cameras. It was in 1987 I bought a Canon AE-1 (35mm) and really started my journey. In 2004 I switched to digital and because of the instant preview I was able to really up my learning curve, in 2012 I picked up a Mamiya RB67 (medium format film) and started slowing down and really processing my shots in my head before ever releasing the shutter. I find MF film to be quite enjoyable and I do believe it has improved my digital work. My mental process has changed. I’ve now gotten a Speed Graphic (4”x5”) but it needs a little TLC before it sees any film. I can’t wait to give it a go.
    Thank you for including film photography in your videos, I know I appreciate it. 😎

    Excellent cooking analogies. When I was a photographer in the RAF during the earlly 80s the first cameras we were taught to use was a large format 5x4 monorail. From there we moved on to medium format which was our main format and finally 35mm which was considered to be almost a 'toy' camera!
    Out of work I used a 6x7 RB67 proS for general stuff and a 35mm SLR for wildlife/sport.
    Nowadays I mostly shoot wildlife with some sport. Having belatedly embraced the digital era, film was left firmly in the past: and now that I have moved to mirrorless technology I could never return to shooting film.
    However, I fully agree with your summation that learning the basics on old manual technology will prove invaluable to anyone who is really interested in the whole photographic process.... and lets not even mention the whole post processing / computer / darkroom scenarios 😁😁

    Loved the show again, and found James' focusing tips really helpful. Also very nice to see Marcus make the plunge into large format. I bought an 8x10" Chamonix myself this year and am enjoying it immensely. As Marcus says, the process is so very fulfilling. There are quite a few large format panorama options out there for him to try as well, such as 4x10", 5x12" or even 7x17". Looking forward to seeing how he gets on with it.

    Another great episode, as usual. I enjoyed the focusing segment. I used Sony A7iii and a Sony A7Riii and do a lot of mixed wildlife type shooting (meaning I am never sure what may show up) I would like to share my focus settings. Custom mode 1 is set for still or slow moving subjects (manual with auto ISO, single shot AF, medium burst mode). I have custom mode 2 set for fast moving subjects (manual with auto ISO, continuous tracking AF, fast burst speed), I have the AF-ON button set to activate the AF mode for each custom setting. I have the joystick center button set to activate "focus standard" mode. I have the AEL button set to toggle between AF and MF. The wheel center button is set to "Recall custom hold 1" (which is set to spot metering}. So I can switch between all these AF modes as needed using just my thumb. C1 on top of the camera is set to "Focus Magnifier" and C2 is set to APS-c/Full Frame toggle. All this allows me to move from an osprey in flight to a bird perched in dense cover without having to move my eye from the viewfinder. Sorry for the long post, but I thought it may help some fellow wildlife shooters.

    I get what he was saying about using the old camera. I used 35mm at first, then I got a mamiya press camera 6x9 camera. It was the most interactive camera I ever used. Pull the slide, cock the shutter, set the focus, take the picture, then remember to turn the film counter to the next number. It was a lot of work, but when you did it right, the prints it made were magical, and the slides it made were even more so.
    I later moved on to a bronica etr, and even though I have not used it a lot lately, I will still never sell it, because once in a while, it is still such a pleasure to use.

    • @PhotographyOnline
      @PhotographyOnline  Před 3 lety

      Hi Ian. Thanks for taking the time to comment. The problem with showing prints is that this is CZcams, so we would need to scan the prints to show the difference. It’s easier just to cut out that process and show the digital file. Comparing prints is only relevant if seeing them in person or if testing different print processes against each other. Hope that makes sense.

    I love photography, all kinds of photography, I have been shooting since the 70s using both film, and digital cameras. I would love to see a section where you send your photographers out using new but basic cameras such as the Fujifilm XA5 or XA7. or maybe the Canon EOS 200D. because people tend to look at these cameras as entry level and not much cop. But in the hands of a pro photographer they could show them and get the best out of them.

    Hello Team, I very recently jumped up from the Canon 5D3 to a Canon R5 Mirrorless. I wonder could be possible to teach us in an easy way how to use Focus Peaking? Also! Previously I would have lined - up my affinity marker to improve my sharpness in landscape photography, so could someone explain how we get this with a Mirrorless camera? Great show and I would never miss it!

    • @PhotographyOnline
      @PhotographyOnline  Před 3 lety

      Hi Allan. Focus peaking can only be used as a basic guide. If you want to focus accurately then don’t rely on focus peaking. It’s a problem with many mirrorless lenses that they are lacking a focus distance scale. Basically there is no way to focus on infinity without actually focusing on something at infinity.

    Fantastic as always but one glaring omission for me! You mentioned the price of the sheet film in the first episode, but there was no indication of the pricing on the Shen Hao field camera or the Schneider lens - might have been useful to show these too (I know, I could have searched Ffordes...) to get an overall idea on pricing at this level. Similarly, the R5/5DSR piece - a price comparison on the lenses may also have been helpful for those on a budget in deciding if the detail in that sign was worth another £800...

      Hi Andy. There is little point in giving prices for large format gear as most of it is only available as used, so there is no set price.

    If you need a full frame competitor to the 5Dsr, consider the Sony A7R IV. The results would be very interesting. The Sony has the advantage in resolution and dynamic range, but would have to mask phase detect pixels and would have to compensate for any heat-related noise from the continuous readouts. My money's on the Sony though even if I'm a Canon shooter.

    I totally agree with the comment about learning curve with film shooting but after my long time with film I am so pleased about the advantages of digital that I have no regrets. But for people who never experienced the desasters of wrong settings, unnoticed vibration, under or over exposure on very special and irretrievable shots they might be too reliant on cameras and not regard them as what they are: a tool with which one can achieve memorable images - for one's own life and sometimes also for others.

    You asked for recommendations for FF comparisons with the Canon 5D SR - try the Pentax K1 Mk II, you could be surprised especially when looking at the dynamic range and when the ISO is raised; Marcus might like the green button, it helps take the guesswork out of manual settings and make sure you use a Pentax star lens for the best quality. I expect Ffordes can find them somewhere.

    I love LF photography. I have three LF cameras, two for the field and one for static stuff round the house. It has a different feel and the results could be breathtaking, but I have to say that it is not for everyone. It has a very steep learning curve. It has a totally different discipline to even MF film photography, let alone digital. It is slow, deliberate and demanding on both the aesthetics and the technical skill of the photographer, and it is very very expensive however, any serious photographer has to try it once.

      Thanks Malcom. Just so you know, you can get a new 4x5 camera (Intrepid for example), a couple of lenses and film holders for under £1k, which is far cheaper than a decent digital set up. Of course, you can spend a lot more, but it is not necessary.

    Hi Guys, I'd like to see you compare the 5DSR images quality to the Sony A7R4, however, given the cost of the A7R4, I don't think that would be a fair comparison. What would be a fair comparison, would be with the A7R3. These cameras also have no low pass filter, and even with just 42MP, the A7R3 may surprise you.

    As to dust on sensor on mirrorless vs. dlsr, seems like a bit of a red herring to go from discussing cameras without sensor screen to showing issue with dust on R5 since it does have the sensor screen. I think my R5 came with sensor cleaning on turn on/turn off switched off by default, whereas my Canon DSLR had the clean sensor option on by default. I figured this out when I noticed how quickly the R5 accumulated visible dust spots, compared to the DSLR. This fixed my issue for now, though I only have had the R% for about 3 months. I suspect you are more savy and had yours set up properly from the start. If so, the other potential reason that an R5 collects more dust than a DSLR may be that the sensor is simply very close to the front flange of the camera. (Could it be the fact that the sensor sits at the back of the DSLR body behind the mirror box makes it just a bit less likely that dust can land on the sensor?)

    I think the comparison between ready meals and cooking from scratch is unfair. Just as having the latest kitchen equipment does not necessarily make you a good cook, neither does having the latest photography equipment but if you use the best ingredients, know about how to combine them well and produce a great plate of food, then the equipment will just be an aid to that end. What matters in photography is being intentional, thinking about what you want to achieve and how to create an image, paying attention to all aspects of the settings and so on.
