I love everything Flic Film is doing. Their BW&G developer is the nicest B/W developer ever .. and I’ve been doing this for 50 years! I’m a fan!!!
This guy has done so much for DIY film. Flic products make up 90% of my darkroom, they're just the best
Great vid, and Flic Film is awesome. I'm totally on board, shooting HP5 at this time.
Thanks so much TCSTV, keeping a space here also for (35mm) Film lovers. I shoot film since i was a kid, into the 80's. Mostly love my manual 35mm SLRs, but also AF gear via Nikon is fine, still like my F80 for instance.
These guys are awesome. Thank you for stepping in and filling a void in the market. One thing that would help with the kits in the US is having a large retailer that is willing to ship the kit. I am lucky enough to be able to pick mine up in person at B&H but a lot of folks are not so lucky.
Why i do love film - it's the haptics, the tactile experience, it's the absence of any kind of LCD display onto your gear (which breaks the body design language - think rangefinder, 35mm SLRs anyway, *if* they'd being digital) it's the "every exposure counts" thinking, you do have 24 or 36 exposures, which is plenty of film, if done right. With digital *you* might think perhaps 5-7-times about the composition - with Film, it's easily 5-10-times or even more...how about the quality of light? is the angle being right? is the composition that way ok? is the focal length alright? No frills - no fiddling with 5967756 camera settings, diving into menu position 12, submenu 8, look at row 5, to find feature xy....geez, that fleeting moment is lost, before you hit the shutter ! Just set your iso, your aperture, your shutter speed - and focus *only* about your very own composition ! It's satisfying, the click of the shutter, the mirror-slap, cocking the shutter...it's photons to photographs - not pixels to RAW files ! think about it....
Super, didn’t realize they were local! Glad to see they’re having success.
What a cool dude, I really love his vision and the resurgence of film. Thoughtful photography is very refreshing in the age of smartphone cameras
Wow, that’s super great news for the film shooters🥰 I see many young folks riding bicycles and driving cars dropping off films into the mini little lab across the road couple blocks away, they’re in their 20s to 30s, young people! My most interest in this is the option to develop the cinema movie film, because I have them and want to use them and develop them myself.
It's a great idea to make kits. They are very clever and creative in coming up with products. I'm tempted for sure. Been thinking about film...
Great video - wonderful they created this business here in Calgary! Developed film in high school. Recently, my teenage daughter took an interest in my old film camera and I had it refurbished. Time for a home lab 😎
I learned BW back in the 70s but I have not done developing since 82. Lately I have been buying film cameras and darkroom lab equipment again, the only thing missing is a source for the chemicals. Now my DSLRs will be the Polaroid pre shots and the final shot will be on film.
So, are Chris and Jordan coming back on April 11?
Great video!!
WOW MAYBE I CAN GET MY E6 SLIDE FILM DEVELOPED!!! HAVE CHECK THESE GUYS OUT.....
Very interesting.
Great fun if you have never tried film photography, the methodology is very satisfying. Not surprising the 645 film camera well scanned image looked better than the Digital Nikon camera what ever it was, depends ISO lenses etc. 654 against a Fuji 100s would have been fairer. Interesting using pro movie film still favoured by directors like Christopher Nolan. I am at the end of my 50 year career in photography and would love to have back those summer days I spent in the darkroom. In my early days getting things right with 5 x 4 and 10 x 8 colour film in a commercial studio was a real discipline. The big advantage of film photography is that it slows you down and think about what you are doing , some people even like the Jeopardy of waiting. Rather than the scatter gun approach of lazy digital photographers who shoot 5000 images at a wedding rather than 10 or 20 rolls of 120 and some 35mm candids on film. Really liked the guy in the article, as well as being a great enthusiast he looks like a very professional business man, something very often lacking in all forms of photography.
They just rerolled 100d ektachrome and I hope to God they hand roll some 120.
Great local business - thanks for profiling them. Are they able to support E6 slide film and processing? Or is that too difficult to do at home?
if this company could figure out how to recreate aerochrome, they'd be laughing their way to the bank!
What about the "Digital" 35mm film?! People who call film "analog" should not be talking about photographic processes or equipment. Analog implies voltage differential, the sensor in a digital camera uses analog signalling. Film uses chemical process, to develop an image from an optical pathway onto a physical medium. In other words, the opposite of digital is not "analog", the opposite of digital is physical. Analog is just part of the "digital" processing.
