Walking while photographing is the best way to make pictures. Senses are sharper, thoughts clearer, feelings deeper, dreams are better. And really lovely work, too.

Haven't shot it myself yet. Haven't watched this video yet. But yes, It IS worth it. Anything to support new film stocks and those who continue to produce them!!

[iainlaurence]

I like the color scheme of this new film stock, it has those classic halations, but a lot more subtle, which I like. Also I got my copy of ‘From the Sunny Side of the Street’ this week and I’m enjoying it a lot!

The video person really makes your work stronger, I love the eye of the video person it’s really strong composition

[peterwoodward]

Love how much beauty you find in monotony, or everyday scenes. I find it so hard to convince myself to shoot a picture on film, but you inspire me to do the opposite thank you.

[JfhuTheJedi]

You make me rethink the way I see the environment in which I live. I've gone to San Pedro and the Korean Friendship bell on multiple occasions and have never seen it the way I just saw in your images. This is a big eye opener.

I have a fun idea: dslr or mirrorless scanning has become a very popular alternative to scanning film, so, what if you take a photo of another photo with film? Like, you scan a negative with your slr.. I mean, negative with negative=positive right? It would be interesting to see what that would look like, though its probably just a waste of money

Great video dude! I am soooo excited to get the two rolls I ordered and test them out when I go to Chicago

The shot at 2:29 is beautiful. Thanks for the nice video review!

[merriammerkabah]

Willem is definitely in his flower photography phase😂... The "portal" one is my fav out of the lot👍

[henrahmagix]

9:59 WOW the red halation is so pronounced here! 😍

[davidellinsworth]

I naturally assumed this was 250D with the remjet removed. The higher ISO rating would be consistent with 800T, which is 500T. It does vaguely have a look of 250D.... did you have to cancel cyan out of the shadows when scanning? Nice film regardless.

[Fjalll]

It's most certainly another modified film of Kodak. They probably get the film delivered without the remjet now - translated into "not a repackaged motion picture film". It looks very similar to the Kodak Vision3 250D. Which can be had for $5 if you look around. Beats Portra all the way

Dude, you are walking around. With a film camera. Like it's 1978. I like it.

[marcelschwinn]

Id on the shoulderbag please. Really nice one!

[fujicinema]

I still haven't tried Cinestill, but I love the colors and halation! Definitely going to buy some soon!

[KAWNK]

I think I need to get couple rolls and try that one. Thanks for sharing your images and thoughts on 400D. I was surprised to see that you were shooing in my neighborhood. I walk those streets every day.

[TheBigNegative-PhotoChannel]

Cinstill 400D. The "D" stand for fruity :D

[JamieKateAdoc]

You were in my neighborhood! Visit Rancho Palos Verdes next time! The Glass Chapel is beautiful and photogenic and Abalone Cove is beautiful during sunset :)

[OBO]

I really can’t get over the fact that the light is always so beautiful around where you live. Can someone tell me if it’s always this way or does he show only good days 😂😂
