I can't advance the film when I closed the back of the camera. But when I leave it open, I have no problem advance the film. What should I do? I've been trying so many times and it still doesn't work
This video was useless and I most likely ruined a cassette of film. You can't see how to thread the film properly or anything else correct for that matter. Beware.
cool tips! do you know you can control this camera with an infrared remote? I know..you're saying "no, this cameras as no IR receiver". but.. Yap you cant control it wirelessly! great for long exposures and remote shooting! check out how at this link (copy to browsers address bar): remoteALL.bymac.org
@saraleahcullen Once the film is used, all the way, press the button on the bottom and start turning the winder. After yu start, release the button, it will stay. Wind it up all the way, then wind it more. If its not all the way in, the exposed films pix are gone... forever... So wind it alot. Then open the door like he said, and pop it out. Then bring it to a 24 hr photo store to develop it.
Its about right. If you zoom far enough, you se eike sand. For example, one grain is one pixel...
Like if you had coulored sand, or coulored rocks. The rocks absorb more light, but they are bigger, and if each rock can be one colour, the pic is there, just low quality. While its more like 9, not 7, it is true. You cant zoom in infinatly and have it perfect. Instead of square, they are roundish.
That looks like a Pentax K1000-I was recently given one from an old friend-and I used it earlier today and I was wondering how come my film didn't come through. I'm gonna try it again later on tonight and see what happens. I have two SLRs and I wanna get back into using film as well as continue to use digital. Thx 4 posting.
And, what better way than to scratch your film with horizantal cinch marks than by squeezing it by rotating the rewind knob, when you can see the rewind knob turn as you advance film anyway! Call yourself a professional photographer? I cant wait to see your method of loading roll film! 'Now you can test your film's caught by winding it all the way onto the exposed side. Now, the film isn't taped that side, so you can't wind it back.' I bet you do this. You can't even load 35mm, the easiest film.
That's it, balance your camera on it's lens and let a flimsy plastic container stop it from tipping. What better way to ruin your expensive piece of precision machinery? Seriously, take the lens out and put the camera's cap on when loading, dipshit.

cool video, just got an olympus om10 from ebay with 3 lenses for like 40 quid, bargain. but need some advice. can you get special effects lenses for this camera. as well as fish eye lenses? am very amateur so forgive my ignorance, cheers!
WTF? How could you compare ANY 35mm film to a digital picture? Ok, how about I use your unrealistic digital-film comparison guide, or should I use PROVEN comparisons? I happen to know for a fact that to get anywhere near the image definition of Ilford Pan F 35mm film you will need AT LEAST 25 MEGAPIXELS, not 11! And don't even get me started on the same film in 120 format! Well, okay, while I'm here, you will need 100 MEGAPIXELS! So don't even start trying to compare film and digital.
You saved me so much confusion, my ae-1 before had reached 30exposures + & when I went to develop the film it was blank! I checked the tightness by puling the lever on it last time & voila! It caught on & I had a full roll of pics. Thanks :3
If you're talking about megapixels then it's not at all to do with the ISO. If you think of it in modern camera terms, film is the equivalent of the sensors we use now. So all SLR are higher quality because the 'sensor' is very large.
I cant open the back for my Nikon FE. I have followed the directions in the manual, but it simply does not open. It is just like the camera in this video except it has an unlock button at the bottom. Any thoughts is appreciated.
oh my god I cannot even begin to say how much of a fucking noob you are....this video sucks! poor angle, don't even know how to actually load the camera right! youre advancing the film without closing the rewind knob down, youre holding it down with your thumb noob! hahaha what a joke
@ipodskate1 Assuming you'll be in high lighting situations in the sun with fast action, you'll want to use a high speed film. higher than 400, 800 or higher would be best.
The speed film has nothing to do with imaginary pixels... It's about ISO, the sensitivity of the film (or of the sensor if you relate to digital camera's)...
Thank you very much for your clear instructions on loading the Pentax K1000. I've been given one, and I've stuffed two rolls by incorrect loading. My previous film camera had auto-load and I haven't used film for 8 years.
Would have been nice to position the camera in an over-head view, but a great tutorial nonetheless. The first time I used this type of camera, I did not know I needed to insert the end of the film into the slot and advance it once. Because of this, none of my shots developed. Thanks for posting!
thank you very much, this helped me out a lot. I always seem to have trouble loading the film. The explanation about the different films helped me too.
Comparing the quality of the picture with the megapixel of a certain camera is one of the worst analogy ever. Megapixel determines the resolution of the camera. 1 megapixel will have a smaller resolution than a 5 megapixel camera, but it doesn't mean that it will be reduced in quality. Film speed is equal to the noise of certain digital cameras nowadays. You should not be mixed up between the two.
is it okay that if i put the film in the camera just what u did in here and JUST closed the cover without the film loaded (which im talking about the 2:55)? like i closed the cover even the film didnt catch it.
@abcrunk4 yeah I love it but dude gave me a faulty one so sometimes the shutter won't fire and the advance lever won't wind but it's pretty easy to use, but I'm leaning more towards a point n shoot like a contax t2/t3
If you guys didn't know, it's best to put on the film in a dark room to use more film. I still find it odd that when you put in the film, your supposedly to get the film to lay flat on the back. And here it isn't, that part always confuses me. Because I'm scared that I messed up.
Quick question, I have been taking pictures with my slr camera but recently my little brother has wound the rewind lever a small bit (no more than a turn or so). Should I not take any more photos with this film, I am worried that it may have moved the film inside the camera and may ruin pictures. Lemme know! Thanks
@starsara100 : The 1000D seems to have a lot more noise issues at higher resolutions and higher ISO values, so my advice is to skip the 1000D and go over to the 450D.
But, Nikon has some good models in the semi-professional range too, so best is too look at both brands.
They both made some astonishing analog models, so they are no newbees when it comes to SLR camera's (Whether it be digital or analog ones.)
Send me a private message if you need more information.
I just got my Pentax K1000, my first camera ever. Slightly intimidating but more excited to just learn photography from the ground up. So thanks for this dude. :)
Good video but I have a slight issue, I don't know what I did wrong but I can't seem to advance it anymore (using the lever thingie), when I first tried it, it did work but right now it doesn't.
I can pull it maybe an inch but then it just doesn't go any further.
Any idea why this is and how I can prevent it from happening?
Btw, it's an Minolta XG-1 and I bought it today :D
@TheBboyUneek Yeah but if you're looking at an slr camera for the first time and someone tells you to "put the film into the slot on the end of the camera" it would be prudent to actually show what that looks like. This video angle doesn't really give you a clear image, which is what I was saying. (Also, I'm not alone in thinking that, as you can clearly see by reading the comments below, but thanks anyway for your reply)
okay this may not pertain to this topic but.. I've been thinking of getting into film photography and buying a nikon fm 10. I have no clue what film photography is or its importance besides it using a film. how do you upload (if there is a way) film photographs on your computer. say if i wanted to upload so i can put it on on my myspace/facebook.? thanks.
The easiest way to upload it to facebook would be just to scan the picture after its developed. If you dont have a scanner many drug stores like cvs can scan photos onto a disk, which you then could put into your computer to upload to fb.
im pretty new at film photography and I'm kinda confused about ASA...Lets say i use a Kodak 200 film..do i have to specifically set the ASA on the camera to 200 or am I free to choose from 12-1600?? kinda confused, need help on this.
That's an old Pentax KX isn't it? I have the exact same model. Nice and reliable workhorse, no unnecessary gimmicks. Only thing electronic is the exposure meter.
By the way, i use exaclty the same way to load my films except i don't rewind the film so aggressively, just a tiny amount back so you can feel the tension. I have retracted the film also once..
You talk to fuckin' much about stuff people didn't look up. Just get to the point/tutorial. -.-

@starsara100 : The 1000D seems to have a lot more noise issues at higher resolutions and higher ISO values, so my advice is to skip the 1000D and go over to the 450D.
But, Nikon has some good models in the semi-professional range too, so best is too look at both brands.
They both made some astonishing analog models, so they are no newbees when it comes to SLR camera's (Whether it be digital or analog ones.)
Send me a private message if you need more information.

If you were to compare Canon 450D to Nikon D3000 which one is better to get?

I just got my Pentax K1000, my first camera ever. Slightly intimidating but more excited to just learn photography from the ground up. So thanks for this dude. :)

Good video but I have a slight issue, I don't know what I did wrong but I can't seem to advance it anymore (using the lever thingie), when I first tried it, it did work but right now it doesn't.
I can pull it maybe an inch but then it just doesn't go any further.
Any idea why this is and how I can prevent it from happening?
Btw, it's an Minolta XG-1 and I bought it today :D

this video's angle is terrible, i am a beginner and i can't see a damn thing you're doing

@malurekalu Hmm, well most of this stuff will make sense when you actually see the camera. :)
TheBboyUneek 1 year ago
@TheBboyUneek Yeah but if you're looking at an slr camera for the first time and someone tells you to "put the film into the slot on the end of the camera" it would be prudent to actually show what that looks like. This video angle doesn't really give you a clear image, which is what I was saying. (Also, I'm not alone in thinking that, as you can clearly see by reading the comments below, but thanks anyway for your reply)

decent video, besides the comparison of film and digital...125iso = 7mp? ahhaha oh well...
xkrypton 1 year ago
@xkrypton what's your interpretation?
AnthonyArundel 1 year ago
125 iso = 125 iso on a really good digital camera, because crappy dslrs wont give you grain fine enough like 125iso film...

okay this may not pertain to this topic but.. I've been thinking of getting into film photography and buying a nikon fm 10. I have no clue what film photography is or its importance besides it using a film. how do you upload (if there is a way) film photographs on your computer. say if i wanted to upload so i can put it on on my myspace/facebook.? thanks.

@megacuh
The easiest way to upload it to facebook would be just to scan the picture after its developed. If you dont have a scanner many drug stores like cvs can scan photos onto a disk, which you then could put into your computer to upload to fb.

im pretty new at film photography and I'm kinda confused about ASA...Lets say i use a Kodak 200 film..do i have to specifically set the ASA on the camera to 200 or am I free to choose from 12-1600?? kinda confused, need help on this.
Btw, I'm using a Pentax Me Super

@3137371 it should be set at your film speed. if im correct, ASA=ISO.
chaosrealm93 1 year ago
@chaosrealm93 ouh ok...thnx =D
3137371 1 year ago
you would have to set it too 200 if you have a 200 film like if he would have used 3200 in the video he would have changed it to 3200

That's an old Pentax KX isn't it? I have the exact same model. Nice and reliable workhorse, no unnecessary gimmicks. Only thing electronic is the exposure meter.
By the way, i use exaclty the same way to load my films except i don't rewind the film so aggressively, just a tiny amount back so you can feel the tension. I have retracted the film also once..
