[JFKenji]

Nice show man! Tokyo is a nice place for taking pictures. Anyway, do we have to do this to if the outside temperature is warmer? I mean, around 25-30 C°.

[evolv5]

You're awesome <3 <3

[Mijonju]

@evolv5 wow honored :) thanks!

[GinaVive]

[coldwives]

you look like a douchebag with your lensless glasses

[raika19eighty6]

The music is on the spot awesome! I think there are a few people on tumblr who are experimenting w/ the new impossible films...calling them impossible to work with :P lol hopefully this video will help them out.

[Mijonju]

@raika19eighty6 thanks! Ryan! just need to keep the film warm.. not too hot.

[kunapot]

I should watch this before took my first shot.

I did check ur flickr, but my pics was failed.

[ethermoonlai]

is it cold weather in Japan when you took photos? I hope it turns out right in most tropic countries like PH :-)

[Mijonju]

@ethermoonlai ya its quite cold here :)

[laspuchas3000]

Mijonjuuu hello :), would you tell me what about the cost of exportation or the shipping price something (plus $21 or 18eur). tnks :D

[Mijonju]

@laspuchas3000 I'm not quite sure what you are implying..

shipping to your place?

i think they cost 30usd for shipping you pay 30 for 1 pack, you pay 30 for 100 packs

the more you buy the cheaper i guess..

[Mijonju]

@nucLEAH yeah :) hi5 smack* hehehe. ill make a video on the unboxing of the film! coming soon!

[DSanches666]

Mijonju - I tried the technique that downinthecheapseats mentioned and it worked really well for me. Also, if it is cooler outside, you can use a cold clip that comes with the old Polaroid packfilm cameras.

I had a question for you. You mentioned in the video something about the batteries in the film. What issues have people had with this? Just wondering because when I was shooting I noticed that I had to press the shutter button a few times to get it to work for each shot.

[Mijonju]

@DSanches666 EXACTLY! hahaha, some ppls have problem with film being stuck, so you have to eject the film a little and shove it back in then close the lid, the film should come out again.. maybe the batteries are TEMPERATURE SENSITIVE :)

but it could be the camera's motor, cos i didn't have this problem, im using my second pack now.

[DSanches666]

@Mijonju Thanks for the reply. I finished a pack of 600 film earlier in the day and didn't have any issues which is why I was thinking that maybe it was the battery in the film pack. I hope it's not the camera!!!

[Mijonju]

@DSanches666 I see, how cold is your temperature there?

[Mijonju]

@Mijonju i know it might sound silly, but I think the temperature my effect the battery as well? or maybe they are reusing the batteries from recycled packs? just guessing, Im neutral on the Impossible film, Love and hate kinda mode now. but im more at the love part.

[DSanches666]

@Mijonju Well the battery (or at least something with the film pack) is definitely the problem. I just got back from finishing up my first pack of film and I had to press the button 6 or 7 times for the shot. As soon as I got home I put in an empty 600 cartridge and the shutter worked perfectly with that pack.

[Mijonju]

@DSanches666 em, I heard some people having the same problem as you. It seems like a bad problem, we should send a mail there to ask them about it.

[Mijonju]

@DSanches666 em, I heard some people having the same problem as you. It seems like a bad problem, we should send a mail there to ask them about it.

[DSanches666]

@Mijonju It was around 75F which is about 24C. That was a good temperature as the film developed at a nice light brown color. Not too light and not too dark.

[Mijonju]

@DSanches666 beautiful.. i wish it turns summer soon :) lol

[downinthecheapseats]

I saw someone on flickr who taped the dark slide over the exit slot - protects the fresh shot from being overexposed by the light. Then you can flip it over and put it in your pocket or wherever to keep it warm.

[Mijonju]

@downinthecheapseats OH MAN THATS A GREAT IDEA :)!!!!

Imma do the same thing!! thanks for the tip man!!

[shamblin]

the shots taken were awesome..

[Mijonju]

@shamblin haha just playin :)

[IanJackes]

Hmm, are you sure you have the right PX100 film? The SX70 version is 100 ISO and the 600 version is 600 ISO. If you got the 600 version, that would explain the lighter tones. Since looking at all your shots, they still look a little too underexposed

[Mijonju]

@IanJackes yup mine are 100 :) ill show you the darker contrasted ones when they get heated up :)

[IanJackes]

@Mijonju Oh ok. Wow it really is that heat sensitive eh? Hmm thanks for the heads up

[Mijonju]

@IanJackes no prob :) enjoy!

[stee1face]

Just order a pack of the PX-100 silvershade, paid $31 us dollars including shipping. If this company is going to make it they need to drop the price, this film is outrageously expensive.

[Mijonju]

@stee1face the film is not that expensive, the shipping is a pain in the butt.

[stee1face]

@Mijonju Yea your right, But I still money coming out your pocket. I do like the concept of the monochrome color and the other new ones. Hopefully the price of the film itself and/or shipping will come down in the future.

[Mijonju]

@stee1face i wish its free shipping! :)

[ichirootaniguchi]

extreme sensitivity is gay =.=

[Mijonju]

@ikadoodledoo LOL

[Mijonju]

@ichirootaniguchi why is it gotta do with gay? LOL i think its a new way to play with it :)

[mussfrombruss]

nice vid man - TIP should hire you!

[Mijonju]

@mussfrombruss i wish they do!! sponsor films please!
