- Hashem takes a look at the latest (2019) formulation of Lomography's "Lomochrome Purple XR 100-400" 35mm film. You'll get an idea of how the film behaves with a variety of different colours, subjects, and situations.
Thanks to Lomography for providing the film for review. Check out the Lomography shop for Lomochrome Purple and other products over at shop.lomography.com/en

The mad Max pictures looked awesome
the night/double exposures looks so cool. I'd love to see this film on neon light night photography. like those instagramish portraits. I think it would look great, since the skintones doesn't really metter in these situations
I like most of the colours except how it shifts purple to green.
Hey have you tried photographing a color chart with these weird films to produce .cube LUTs for your accompanying video? That would be cool, the video of you using the film is graded to look like it.
The Sydney workshop and meetup sounds great. Depending on the date, I’d be interested. :) I backed the LomoChrome Metropolis Kickstarter and looking forward to the February delivery.
Great video! Great pictures! The macro shots were my favorite !
More interested in this than I thought I'd be. Nice work :)
Love those portraits!
Definitely giving this film a try now!
I really liked the lavender shots as well as the night photography.
You got some beautiful pictures out of this, but I don't think the film is for me. I'm more of a fan of the lomography redscale film. :)
The double exposures looked gorgeous
Nice video, a lot of work. Yeah, night shots the most interesting. At $12 USD per roll, certainly not an every day film as you mentioned. Thanks.
Very interesting. Thank you.
I found Potsdam to be a really nice film and I like the strength of its base.
Nice video man, I’m guessing this is the New Formula? I like that is has more pinks than the previous formula.
I have a few of the 2018 version of the XR 100-400. I find that in my scans, the purples can look a bit more magenta which I post-process to be more towards red so it looks like Kodak aerochrome :D
Great, awesome Film ever.
It shines at night. I don't trhink I have seen others shooting it at night. Inspires me to break out the Nikon FA and go out after dark.
Getting my first roll of Purple back from the lab this week. I shot it in a light-leaking Olympus XA2 so I'm excited to see the results.
@tyvek05 wow you seem like a pleasant person
@tyvek05 The obvious answer here, not that I owe you one, is "because I like it."
And the photos came out great. The light leaks worked just like I hoped they would!
I shot a few and got some light leaks and they came out really red it was dope
@@BlazingSerenade Exactly! This person gets it :D
Great video and review Hashem. Really interesting look and really appreciated the 800 comparison. N00b question. Since the film speed is variable how does the lab now what ISO to develop it at?
Develop normally! C41 has a standard dev time regardless of iso... Unless intentionally pushing or pulling.
@@pushingfilm Oh cool thank you Hashem because if i am not mistaken B&w dev times vary I thought the same would occur with c41. Thanks for the info and great content
hey, Thank you for the review. I was curious regarding another person's opinion about this emulsion.
I've shot 4 rolls of lomochrome purple (the new formula in 135) during the summer.
I could agree with you it is an interesting film, however that is all from the postive side of it.
The color shift is entertaining, but the quality and the resolution is awful. I tried in different ISO settings and so on ,nevertheless the amount of grain is high. The dynamic range of this emulsion is ridiculously low, even comparing with a low budget color negative like Fuji C200 or Kodak Colorplus. Also the the price is really high for a 'toy' like film even it is not a regular one.
Anyway, nice video, keep up!
Awesome review, not sure if I like the look of the film. May need try some for myself !
Thanks Darryl, yeah it's an odd one... maybe you could find a creative use to get the most out of it!
@@pushingfilm Heading to Taiwan next month, maybe a cool film to test out there.
Hi Hash, Absolutely amazing video, you got some great shots there, very informative. I'll rate my new roll at ISO 160 too and see what happens. How did you rate the Lomo 800?
Hey, thanks very much! Sounds good 🙂 As for the Lomo 800, it's a bit hard to remember... but I probably rated it somewhere between 400-800
Good film👍
Hah. I've just sent a roll of 35 off for dev and have a roll of 120 on the desk waiting to get posted so this was interesting to see what sort of results you can get from it. You didn't talk about sharpness/grain too much on the video. How did you rate the actual quality of the images? They look great on screen but obviously that's nothing like an A4 print. Nice video, and really useful to see different types of images under different lighting. That lavender was lovely. Loving the channel!
Hey, thanks very much! I would compare sharpness and quality to a consumer 200-400 speed film from Kodak or Fujifilm. It doesn't tolerate underexposure well though, so I think for the cleanest result rate it at 100; shadow detail is probably its weakest point
@@pushingfilm Just wanted to say that I got my 35mm scans today and totally agree. I shot my 1st (35mm) roll at 400 and they're really quite under-exposed and have grain that I'd expect from a much faster film. Shadows are "bad". The 120 was rated at 200 (before I saw this video unfortunately) so I'm hoping for better results.
@@Harlequin565 oh no! Yeah, hopefully the 120 roll comes out cleaner then
good~~~
course it helps living somewhere were stuff happens instead of here in Damn Ft Myers Florida!!!
What iso were you using at night?
yeah to get 36 you have to shoot the leader with these limo films having loaded in dark. I've shot a roll of this but its so unpredictable and just a touch too grainy for me.
is it possible to shoot this in video format?
does this fit on an canon ae1 pro?
Isn't this film supposed to try and replicate something like Kodak Aerochrome? You should definitely try it on a sunny day with lots of plants, a model and a #12 Wratten yellow filter.
I've shot 2 rolls of the first incarnation of Purple myself, but didn't use any filters. Can you tell me, please, what a yellow filter would do with this film? Very interested.
Hi, im currently looking for a Film camera, i already have a nifty fifty and saving for a 70-200 I L. what would you recommend that would not hutt my wallet.
The EOS 3 camera I use in this video is an option I'd highly recommend if you have Canon EF lenses!
I got the 120mm version of this film. My only complaint, you couldn't buy just 1 roll, you had to buy the pack of 5. At least in Canada anyway. Your images turned out really great.
Ke-bab shop. I just got a roll and can't wait to try it.
You need bright lights, and solid colors. You took a picture of a gas station, and I almost threw up. The picture of the girl with the purple and blue is what this film is meant for; that was a good picture, I just wish you had a brighter day to shoot on. This film loves bright sunny days, and the strongest colors you can find, I even made a rhyme for this film. no dead leaves or washed out jeans.
You almost threw up from seeing a picture on a CZcams video? Do what you wanna do with the film, and I'll do whatever I want with it thanks.
@@pushingfilm You're using the film to get weird effects in the first place, so you would want to use them where you would get weird effects, you didn't change much in the picture by using that film. You could have gotten a similar picture by just using color negative film, that's my point. Also people are watching your videos to learn. So make sense of the photos you take before you put them in a video.
@@MegaRotors man, I was using the film to have fun, and that's what I did 🙂
@@pushingfilm gas stations are fun?
@@MegaRotors They are to me! I liked the old Bosch logo and signage and the camera was with me so I took a photo. Sue me
A flawed emulsion, packaged as a "specialty film". LOL ....
a very bad try on replicating the look of gorgeous kodak aerochrome
Seems like you didnt know much about this film at all.
