Every new grainydays video gives me a momentary respite from the horrors of my daily life and gives me a reason to continue living.

Man, this video had it all: killer enlarging lens scanning setup, a fridge full of Retrochrome, and setting up the insane expectations of shooting 4x5 Aerochrome! [sweating]

[DGJTvlogs]

I'm both incredibly damp at the thought of 4x5 aero film, but also worried Jason will lose his thumbs from his gradual animorph into Chester Cheetah.

5:12 Goodness Jason, the tone difference between your arm and forearm is like those Breaking Bad scenes that take place in Mexico vs the US.

My man's out here doing the Lord's work trying to bring aerochrome back. Be the change you want to see in the world

Hands down the best intro on YouTube, I expect you to keep to your promise

The 80-200mm f2.8 is highly regarded my man, get it. I'd also recommend the lovely Nikon ais 50mm f1.8 pancake prime. Fantastically sharp with great contrast and saturation. It resides on my F3 for all of my trips.

Living vicariously through your exorbitant spending since I can’t do it myself

I just adapted a 50mm R lens for my Nikon collections month or so ago(Titan included). Loving the results! Love the content!!

I've been using a Minolta 80mm f5.6 C.E. enlarger lens to scan for about the past 6 months and couldn't be happier. Not only is this thing dirt cheap and sharp as a tack, but also constructed to interpret a 2D object on a 2D plane.

Loving these 4:3 uploads lately… fills the screen of an iPad perfectly. Having you been shooting open gate or?

[harrydeyong]

How can you not like grainydays? Absolutely one of the best.

Ah, the joy of eBay addiction. As to aerochrome I’ve bitten the bullet and resorted to a full spectrum modified micro 4/3. Feels dirty, but the camera and filter cost about the same as a roll of aerochrome these days

[richardsimms]

Excellent photographs. And that really counts in a video like this. Thank you. RS. Canada

[shawn]

A man of the people. You have the channel, connects, doe, and addiction to spring on some ebay darkweb aerochrome while the rest of us only dream of shooting it one day. Yet you still chug a bottle of flaming hot Mt dew in solidarity and protest to help bring it back for the rest of us who can't.

Loved the square (almost) video aspect ratio! Nice colours in this video too 👌

[FreXxXmeister]

If you are scanning with Lightroom Classic, you can actually shoot some kind of correction shot that lets you subtract any kind of vignette your lens might have. Very useful for scanning when stitching.

[gmart]

Man, I really love that you exist. You make me remember that I can really love someone's content

[DMTStokes]

Not relevant to this video but I’ve been shooting my xpan vertically and I highly recommend you doing that with the tx-1 Cheers

[GregoryVeizades]

That 80-200mm is an excellent lens. I just got one and it's amazing.
