the lomokino give some really interesting results! what an insightful video! i just love film photography! really enjoyed watching this! thanks for sharing this amazing content with us
The Lomokino film looks more like a timelapse and not a movie. It would of been cool oficina the output was more like a Charlie Chaplin film. JMO BTW, cool 4k scanner!
could almost use dropbox for this. if one has the upload speed, I know we have them both here but most don't esp upload..This is a someday wishlist though. Scanning not too much of a problem , a pain yes but I can do that but very tedious but getting it animated , probably need a program for that from what I've been told. but in this case the animation is normal !
This would be great if you'd price it in relation to what the Lomokino is. The way this service is priced by FPP, filming on a proper 35mm motion picture camera and scanning 4K at Kodak lab comes cheaper. Anyone wanting a more gritty, analog, unsteady look can buy a vintage Krasnagosk 16mm camera off eBay and even with the purchase price of that camera it should still come cheaper than FPP's Lomokino service.
Thank you for the comment. The prices is based on the prep and machine time to perform the scan. We are now considering a heavy discount for any additional rolls. Thanks - Mike Raso
@@FilmPhotographyProject Thanks. It’s been a long time since I asked for the price. Back then I was teaching several classes with students using the Lomokino. Since I also used to work at a film lab back in the day (Ascent Media) I had asked you if you could give me a price after I’d prep the rolls for telecine. It’s been a while but I’m pretty sure I can still use a hot splicer. Anyway, I never heard back from you after I asked that question and now all classes have pretty much done away with the Lomokino as a result of it being a pain to scan frame by frame.
I know this is an older video but I do have a question. Do you guys also develop the rolls of film or FPP is just offering to scan it? Thank you so much.
FPP offers LomoKino scans - filmphotographystore.com/products/film-scanning-services-lomokino-movie-maker-35mm-film-scanning?_pos=1&_sid=3a800b4c7&_ss=r We recommend getting your film developed (uncut) by thedarkroom.com
I really love the idea of this camera, I love the fact that some people invented it and manufactured it, but I'm still not 100% sold. First of all, the 2 perf decision is super weird. Did they do this to save money on the size of the lens? To fit in more frames per roll? It definitely seems to impact the results negatively. Super wide image makes it difficult to frame and compose, difficulty to scan with standard tools, not compatible with most cinema equipment like 35mm projectors, etc. Second, everything I've seen come out of this camera seemed incredibly choppy - old cameras could be hand-cranked at a 14 - 26 frames per second, why not design a faster FPS here? Because it's made of plastic? Because you have to crank the film through the camera, rather than rewind a spring and then have the spring power the film drive as in many old camera designs? A lot of consumer-grade, still film cameras with Burst Mode would produce something smoother. If they had increased the FPS to, say, 14 frames per second, you would still guarantee a 10 second clip per roll of 36. Even if you used, say, a half-frame camera to do a stop motion film in Super 35 standard format, you'd still be able to fit 4 whole seconds of film on a roll of 36 (if you play it at 18 FPS, which is totally acceptable) - but you'd be shooting standard Super35 format film. The example shots you guys shot here are very dusty and dark... and it's kind of difficult to find good examples of serious short-films made with this strange contraption on the internet. Until I get a chance to try it out, I'm still unsure this can be an acceptable option to shoot decent projects with - as opposed to Super-8 and 16mm cameras - but I'm happy it exists and that has its crowd of enthusiasts.
@@fabriceducouret5631 You do not lose any choppiness with a hand cranked bolex or sept (the sept you actually just take rapid individual shots as fast as you can push the button). They can be every bit as choppy when not tripod mounted. That is not lost - what is gained is a far better image that the Lomokino simply can not deliver.
I did b/w film processing 20-30 years ago . . . My daughter got one of these cameras and started asking me about double exposures, etc. I thought why mess with this when there are apps that do the same thing w/o the hassle? Oh well.
This is amazing. Now I have to buy this camera.
I'm gonna make a movie! on Film!
I wondered how you were finding the time to scan customer's rolls by hand. Answer - you aren't! Genius!
Now I can scan that LomoKIno movie I shot in London in 2012! (Six years ago! Where does TIME go? czcams.com/video/vtkGtXtDlQA/video.html )
the lomokino give some really interesting results!
what an insightful video! i just love film photography!
really enjoyed watching this!

Ha, the latest podcast made me come and check out your Lomokino scanning videos. Do you accept films from overseas?
We do! - Mike

I have a question can there be an option where the customer can get both, the hd scan, and the original film print
it's a great idea

You can hand crank a bolex for a similar effect, (only far better), or in 35mm, a debrie sept.
@@CymbalsOnly I am saying it looks too choppy compared to Super=8mm or 16mm, not that I am trying to reproduce the choppiness!

can you guys scan super 8?
Do you send the negatives back to the client with the scans?
Yes, we do.
Good for the close by living Americans, I suppose.
