This thread's to share what you're most stoked about in the photo/film world. I know people are busy and have a lot of ideas that they want to pursue, and just haven't quite had the time yet to make it happen. Hopefully posting some things you want to film will help you to create some time to get it done.

To start things off--

- I just got back in touch with a friend that four wheels and is so sick at it. I already have a perfect song picked out and have been picturing the shots I'll get for the last day. Can't wait to start filming.

- Finally picked up a sandisk extreme pro 32gb 95mb/s SD card for my t2i and no longer have to worry about "filming has stopped automatically", makes me feel so much more confident when filming important things

- Just purchased a 3tb hard drive, so all my shits backed up!

share your giddyness

After I posted about the intrepid camera i started doing my own research on 4x5 cameras. I realized that I could get a really nice used camera for quite a bit cheaper than the intrepid, and have it now. I just won a Graflex Graphic View monorail on eBay and I'm beyond stoked to join the large format club.

He said he's going to immediately sell the lens... so under that assumption, he'll be picking up something else instead.

i'm putting a roll through it with the 50 right now while i'm waiting for the 35 to get here. I don't know, I guess I've never been a fan of the 50mm focal length, but as far as the mechanics go it's an awesome lens. If anyone here is in the market for an LTM 50 it's going to be great. That being said, maybe in the future if I get into portraiture or something I'll look for a 75mm for it, i've never really shot that length and it could be something fun.

I'm really fucking pumped on the camera though, the only thing I'm a little scared of is the focus not being correct but I won't really know until this roll gets developed. It's too close to call right now though, because the prism only SEEMS to be off in close(r) situations, i.e. less than 6'. Everything over that it is spot on with the range on the lens. I love the ergonomics of it and honestly even though some of the reviews I read said the opposite, it feels like such a sturdy build. It feels just as hefty as my spotmatic f, and that thing has been a fucking tank over the past 3 years.

Well, it may be expensive and inconvenient, but an IMAX film projector looks more dramatic than many IMAX films:



(admittedly that is interstellar, which is a very long film. It was also partly shot in 35mm, so is that a print of the 35mm onto the 70mm IMAX? Or is there some projector changing going on?)

That's the reel on a reel holder.

Fucking reels are massive.




The reel holder uses rollers to feed them to the projectors which are...





..also fucking massive.



I hate it when people say IMAX is expensive, there's clearly reasons for that.

Unstoke...

a few months after my 35-70 developed a major evil hazing issue and I dumped it for 100$... My 80-200 is now deciding that it's too cool for school and won't autofocus. The mechanism completely stripped out, so now turning the screw in the back won't do anything to actually focus the lens.

Still manually focuses, so It's absolutely great for video, but it's still frustrating to no end.

So, I'm stoked because the student newspaper that I write for decided to run a winter special issue. They know I'm a weird ski bum so they asked me to give them whatever content I wanted. I ended up with 12 photos and four articles in the latest issue. I know that it's not that big of a deal, our circulation is only about 6k but it always makes me happy to see my photos in print.

Also, that same student newspaper just won an award as 2nd best student newspaper in the nation, so I'm stoked about that too. /claim /stoke

Nah that never happened to me, the only issueI had starting out was loading holders, I'd sometimes not get it completely flat so the dark slide would catch, or I'd scratch the film getting it out.

No matter how digital cameras are updated, I'm always turned off by the fact that with every photo I take I'll be stuck sitting at a computer editing the bajeezus out of it just to make it look good. I love the idea of plugging a camera in and getting immediate results (scanners suck); but I just can't get over how you have to actively fight the sterility of the image.
