Tibetan throat singing and pushing hp5, I didn't choose this lifestyle, it chose me.

In the UK we call this "how to shoot in anything other than the 12 seconds of sunshine each year"
hp5 minutes of sun per year 😔
Yeah, I've been shooting basically nothing but HP5 pushed to 1600 for months now. While I'm maybe reaching the point of grain overdose with it, I know shooting at anything below 800 basically means I can't shoot for 90% of the next six months.
It was sunny for fully 45 seconds back in 2007. Truly those were salad days.
Must be in scotland
was in Bristol 3 years ago.. had plenty of sunshine
As far as I'm concerned, HP5 is a 1600 iso film with a typo on the box, and the world is now divided into two groups of people, those who saw Dune properly in the cinema, and those who waited for it to be streamed, and will regret it for the rest of their miserable lives.
And those still waiting for it to come out in their country😭
I saw Dune the day before it came out in theatres. I would've had to wait another day to see it otherwise. :) It also streamed in Dolby Atmos, Dolby Vision, and at 4K so it was better than theatres (with the right setup). I could pause, put subtitles on, rewind, repeat, and most importantly, not wear a mask!
Thank god that I went to see Dune in IMAX on its last day, would hate myself if I missed that chance
Damn I'm already regretting it by this comment alone smh 🤦
What about those who haven't seen it at all, and will see it as a double feature when part 2 comes out, thus having the best cinematic experience of their entire lives?
I'm okay with being called a pimp when it's by you Jason 🙂

top ten anime crossover
Ilford HP5 literally is the only thing that turns me on anymore
I like shooting it at 3200 and developed with DD-X
You have redeemed HP5 in my eyes .... I might think about looking in its direction again
Besides the entertainment and photos: the audio quality of your voice/mic/post-prod. is just amazing
Was just thinking about that. Now how do I get my voiceovers to sound that good?
Wanted to like this post but didn’t wanna ruin the 69 likes. Carry on sir
I've been rescanning a bunch of negatives that have survived since the early 1970s (yes, I am unconscionably old). I came across a page of Ektachrome 100 pushed to 1600. I remember taking the photos, and that the film was pushed to 1600, but I have no memory of how they were processed. You might want to try it.
what the fuuuuuuuuuuuuuu thats like 4 stops
That chrome slot canyon shot at 9:18 is beautiful.
In the old days we used to push HP5+ not only for grain and contrast mostly because we needed the extra speed at low light situations.
Being that I shoot mostly indoor stuff of my family, pushed HP5 is my jam. That said, it pushes even better in 120. I tend to like 35mm HP5 +1, and 120 HP5 +2 or 3.
Because of the less pronounced grain in 120? Or is there a different reason too?
@@mastaw the grain is less obvious so you can push it further for sure on 120. Grain gets a bit intrusive +3 stops on 35mm but some peeps like the stylised look. I have pushed to +3 stops on 120 and it still looks great.
I strongly assume that’s because the 120 needs less magnification than a 35 mm negative.
Maybe you can push more on 120 but you kind of have to because you’re losing lens speed.
@@mastaw correct. Still looks relatively "clean" pushed 3 stops with 120. Big reason to push it +3 is shit indoor light.
Trev is absolutely correct, there is only one Sierra Nevada Mountains. Learned that in my first geology class in 1978.
Also, I recently learned that sierra is the opposite term to cordillera with the former meaning a patch of mountains and the later more of a string.
Thanks man. I stepped into a camera shop today for the first time in a long time, they had rolls of this sitting by the till and it caught my eye; as did this video appearing from nowhere in my feed 6 hours later... I'd forgotten how free the experience is - digital always feels to me like I need a subject and for that reason I don't shoot a lot these days. Film is a canvas in of itself.
Nice images. Thanks.
Those garden chairs at 9:01 - muack - chef's kiss!
HP5 pushed 1 stop is what I use. Love the extra contrast, love the extra grain in B&W, love the versatility of being able to shoot in nearly any situation.
I thought Dune was great Jason, was definitely the Mamiya 7ii of Sci Fi Movies as of late. Can’t wait for the second one in 2023. That is if the rapidly approaching heat death of the universe doesn’t end us all, or until Fuji finds some way to discontinue that as well.
Amazing images, thanks for another cool video.
Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!
Always an inspiration watching your vids. Thanks for the upload brotha.
Love it! Thank you for sharing your experience. I have been hooked on pushing HP5 for a while now and really enjoyed seeing your captures
Dune was amazing! The pictures, music and the story had a great depth and quality.
And HP5 pushed two stops too, with a bit more grain
Another great video. The 12mm shots are amazing. Very nice portrayal of pushed HP5 also.
Hell yea a new GrainyDays video!
Nice pics, Mr. J. These are great.
Thank you for curing my morning depression and helping my through Friday. Love you
Excellent Photos!
Great stuff. I've only ever pushed Ilford HP5 +1 stop and I loved the results. You may have inspired my next shoot!
Loved dune. Thought the slow pace was essential for world building in the first film of the trilogy. Visuals and score kept me engaged throughout. Couldn't be more excited for part two!
Just ordered some HP5 the other day....I'm about to rock out with my stock out!
Nice collection of pics. Nice video too
Another great Video Jason
Definitely adds another tool to my arsenal. I went and shot the Naval Aviation museum in pensacola and having only one 1.2 lens and maximum 800 speed film was severely limiting but I did get some cool-ass photos from it. Now starting my own development I can now push film. Great video as always
Great video. I shoot a lot of HP5 and have tried pushing two stops and it helps with low light situations. Especially here in the UK where we have 12 seconds of sun a year. However, I prefer a one stop push, though.
I love this channel ❤
Great shots Jason!
Thanks for introducing me to "Beer and Cameras".
I really enjoy your videos
I'm a simple man. I see a new upload by @grainydays, I get six taquitos and spend two hours on the toilet.
I leave here smiling every time
More frequent videos please Jason 🙏😉
Watching this just as I've gotten my first roll of Ilford HP5. Seems like a good idea to push to 1600 for all the cloudy days I get in late fall and winter, but I'm in the midst of a rain storm now and I nearly broke the light meter in one of my cameras after taking it out in hard rain
This was my go to film and exposure/dev method for live gigs where no flash was allowed. Tbf even preferred it when flash was allowed.
Having shot exclusively HP5 at the start of my film journey (because my school had it for free), I can't help but feel that HP5 has become a little boring at box speed, and have preferred Retro400S, Bergger Pancro, and Fomapan 400 for that speed. However, HP5 at 800, oh boy what an experience, it just have so much character.
If i shot hp5 at 800 do I tell the lab push 1 stop? Or just develop normally
I would like to know as well!!!
@@grainystillsfrom what I understand you won't see much difference if you don't tell the lab. Otherwise you're just underexposing your shots with your metering.
Super vid! That Voigtländer lens is unreal
thank you man, i was missing you already
bears&cameras event... sounds cool! getting drunk and geeking over film cameras at the same time 😛
Great video and there are some photos I really love in there. It'd be interesting if you could develop on how the contrast from pushing is different from adding contrast digitally? I'm waiting for my first pushed b&w film to get developed at the moment 🙂
I have not pushed HP5 (yet, I've got rolls in the fridge awaiting my amateur caress), but I have become addicted to OG Acros 100 pushed 2 stops with a deep orange filter. It's deliciously grainy and contrasty, and completely opposes what box speed stood for (grainless and boringly balanced mids).
Insofar as Dune, it's also on the list.
I liked the oily Sting in the Dune
love this!!
you crack me the f up and educate me at the same time❤️
Superb!
I can’t wait to make this stock my whole personality. My family thanks you 🙏
Insane man these images fire
Very tasty shots of the Getty
Thanks Jason
That shot at 5:06 is just lovely.
Nice lines and shots.
I like the message from sponsor in the last part :D
Good experiment ! No pain no grain !
that first shot is the single greates b&w picture i ever saw
"how great should the video be?" Jason: "Yes".
In truth man , you´re the only one on youtube i dont skip the Squarespace Add.
Dune was awesome dude. i love it and looking forward to the second part.
Those pics at the Getty are super dope!
You kind of can save underexposed images with stand development though. I've gotten very consistent results without any issues by doing semi stand. I do constant agitation the first minute, then 15 seconds once every 15 minutes, end at all hour.
Usually much sharper including sharper grain
I shoot a lot of HP5 and Kentmere 400 to 1600… it’s amazing on 35mm, and I LOVE the grain!
I love the look of hp5 at 1600! And if you’re going indoors and outdoors on the same roll it’s great unless you want bokeh of course
I have no clue what you’re talking about but I keep coming back.
Sitting here on a cold night (it’s beautifully warm in Melbourne where I’m from) in Seoul Korea during a business trip, got half way through this episode and thought “why am I sitting here instead of out on the street using that roll of Delta 400 I shoved in my Pentax P30” so out I went, dumping the iPad for some amazing Asia architecture and squiggly signage…only to find once I’d found an epic composition the winder stopped winding correctly, and it was at that moment I went “oh yeah, as much as I love my Pentax P30, it’s not a Leica M6….and that’s why I should’ve stayed in the warm hotel watching the rest of the episode”. 😢
True story.
when i used to shoot hp5 i wold use the box speed but i never worked with it digitally only really worked with it in the darkroom but i found that if the correct contrast filters and exposure time were used with the enlarger i got somewhat similar results tho it did vary sometimes
That Mr. Bean reference was on point after visiting the getty.
Best Film Channel on CZcams!
Funny this, I did exactly the same thing. Took the film to my usual lab and they laughed! 1600?,,,you mean 2 full stops??? Yes 2 stops, that's what I've written on the label. They laughed, I laughed, siri laughed, but I got the last laugh, the images are wonderful.
Grade 5 it on the print for that super sexy high contrast look!
Dune was magical!
loved Dune, watched it twice in theatres, soooo enjoyable
I have not, but now I will try it.
God your black and white stuff is amazing
Yes serotonin.
This is my fifth time watching this video. It's just that incredible. I love it so much. Shout to grainydays for this visual sex of a video.
loved Dune, love your work as well, but I especially love your commentary style.
Super grainydays.
I’m happy to see the legendary Budweiser camera making another appearance
Dune is sooo spicy as the grain in your photos :) thx for the great video!
Hey Jason. Try it at 1600 with a red filter : and a polar (tricky with any non slr, but.) It would so magic with the blue LA skies.
+3 stops is also great, only that development takes more time. You can even push it more with still development, something worth trying
Very cool
Dune is a Masterpiece!! And the books even more
Enjoyed this - fine photos! What developer did you use? I pushed 35mm HP5 to 1600 with Rodinal and it was too grainy for my taste. Got better, smoother results @800iso and Ilford ddx developer - but ddx is much more expensive. I definately will need to do more push processing during the dark winter months here in Reykjavik.
I like to push my B+W 2 stops so I can have faster shutter speeds, and when I am in bright light I just put a 2 stop ND on to get my aperture opened up to f 5.6 - 8 .
You’re the man
if you ever are struggling with a video idea, I would love to see one on the process of your creative journey: ie where you started and where you are now. Love your videos, I hope ypu are stoked on your current lifw.
I prefer to pull shit out of the toilet. It takes a while to get used to, but man, I swear you'll never go back to pushing again. Such a warm fuzzy feeling.
Use Ilford Delta 3200@1600 and embrace it as next best thing since sliced bread.
we live for new grainydays
really enjoyed Dune, definitely gonna watch it on repeat
Watched dune twice: English and German. Waiting for the 2nd part! ;-)
I have a question, when i metering a 400 asa film on a Normal day inside I get a shutterspeed of 1/15 1/20. This is very slow to shoot a portrait out of hand and also when the subject is moving. Is it possible to shoot it for Example in 1/60 1/80 en still get a good exposed photo in the developing proces?
I always push hp5 to 800 or 1600 the develop with DDX. The results are *chef's kiss*.
I've been on a Dune bender and I can't stop thinking about the grain. Guess this means, I need to buy some HP5 and test out the +2 stops.
push it 10 stops
Considering everything with KODAK marked on it costs 50% more in Europe, I'll stick with HP5+ (6,80€) rather than TMax400 (11,80€).
