What camera inspires you to shoot more?

[australianboy]

I was like “yeah cool, you’re happy with your camera. Great.” and then after seeing the moments you captured with it I’m watching with eyes wide open hahaha so good! I’m more inspired by discussions and other photographers. Perhaps because I haven’t come across a gear that inspires me yet?

That portrait at 6:27 is BEAUTIFUL! the light, the colours, the shadows in the background, ... awesome work!

I am using my Bronica SQ right now after a year break. Try to push myself to use this small brick with my commercial work and it's really work. Sometimes you need a break. Thinking about your camera. Cause it is more light weight and more portable. I am work often with sport so less weight it's important for me. Cool video btw

Well done, mamiya 7 images have a quality that make images shine with soul, a word that doesn't come up in photography, though we take photos of scene/view because of how it makes us feel.

[Caballeroshot]

Equipment "feel" is so important for me, especially shutter sound. I shoot film because of its tactile involvement in the process of loading and developing, adjustment etc which is why I can't shoot a camera like this one or a leica for that matter. The cost mainly is a deterrent but what irritates me the most is that dull uninspiring metal "Clink" sound of the shutter. I need to feel the camera working to capture the image and for me the Mamiya 6/7, leaf shutter cameras etc just feel so dull at every shutter actuation. That's just me personally and you prove how equipment matters with the unbelievably beautiful images you captured!

Nice video. For me, the best thing about the Mamiya7 is its size and weight. I travel and hike a lot, so it's great to have a 6x7 camera in such a compact form.

[OsseGrecaSinare]

Beautiful video Gene!!! man how the hell do you grade you canon R5 Footage and what profile do you shoot with? the ones on this video is just amazing!!

Bro the Pickwick theatre in Park Ridge. I live around the corner from there. Are you in PR too?

[riswanc]

Thank you sir, love the comparison… i like the fuji wide with all its mechanical ❤

[artsmodelstation]

Funny, film inspired you and for me when the first digital camera came out and I was able to afford one I dumped my film camera.

My Nikon F from 1964 inspires me to keep taking photos.

[SoulClubCoffee]

I like what you say about accessibility. It's like an anti-snob manifesto. Cameras are for everyone.

[DivineMisterAdVentures]

Is that your 645 on the table? What's wrong with that, creatively?

[danielfollmer]

My nikon FM!

Also the photo of Joe at 6:30 🤯😱🤧

[steeeez]

dope vid, whats the song at 20 seconds?

The Mamiya 7 has been my dream camera for years and I’ll be finally purchasing one.

[gurugamer]

Hi, Is it worth buying the Mamiya 7 II + 80mm f/4 £3500-£3800? User says it is immaculate. Is it too risky to buy as they are old. User says he bought it new in 2003. Is this camera recommended for portraits and travel?

[kristih]

desperadoooo for this video edit style? I dont make videos yet but would love to vlog and love the coloring of this. Please sell it to me!

[edisonvuong]

I am literally going through now what you went through 2 years ago. Not feeling inspired by my digital work. Went out and shot a roll of film and feel rejuvenated again. So much that I went online 2 weeks ago to pick up the Mamiya 7. Excited for this next chapter of film photography in my life. Also, just wondering...how do you get those film stock borders on your images? Thanks and great video.
