Studio photographic shoot - Mike Hemsley at Wgphoto

[pixelwarehouse]

Do I miss film? - well not the costs.....nor the messy E6 film processing - the smelly chemicals, the darkroom in the heat of the summer, the dust problems, fogging, mis matched film batches, CC filters, exposure metering, drying marks, customer bias - "Kodak? don't you shoot Fuji Velvia? "....... but oh how wonderful that final resulting transparency when window card mounted and viewed on a colour corrected light box, using a manifying glass. That I miss ...With digital I just miss my sleep!

What flash setup are you using?

[pixelwarehouse]

Hi, I was using Elinchrom 202 power packs to bounce off large white reflector boards, a 1metre square softbox as the key light and Elinchrom 500 monoblock heads fitted with honeycomb grids to achieve edge lighting around the subject. I use the same kit for my digital studio shoots but the flash power is shut right down to its lowest power setting because flash designed for film use is really far too powerful!

may be one day you could show how to use the mamiya RB67 or show more video with the mamiya RB 67 Because there not many videos of this camera like how to connect a flash with this camera or how to put film and so on.

or how to put instant film on the polaroid back of mamiya RB 67

Could you bring more videos of this camera? please

thanks

Hi , sadly I do not use this kit any more. The video shows my RB67 on one of its last outings. Customers demand cheaper costs (ie no film / materials) so digital was an inevitability.External flash connected via lenses using cable connected to flash socket set in lens body. Film backs fitted to rear of body by sliding two locking bars to engage or release them on the rotating back panel. Polaroid is fitted by removing the film adapter plate and swapping backs via a single release bar. Easy!

I love the thumb action on 0:14 and 0:58 .
