GETTING STARTED WITH THE PENTAX 67 

Nice video. I am learning to use a Pentax 67 now. Thanks so much for the video. RS. Canada

Splendid! machine, you'll certainly have fun with that beauty! You are off to a good start with those images too.

That is going to be such a fun camera for you to use. Really looking forward to seeing more from this camera and your adventure with medium format.

What a beautiful piece of equipment. I wanted that camera for couple decades !

Pentax 67...Good choice.

What timing, I’m waiting on one from Japan and can hardly wait

That’s an awesome camera!! I hope you and your family had a good Thanksgiving! Take care Dave.

Well done my friend. Very nice. Best wishes to you.

Can you do a video on scanning for the 67?

Man, you're going to get a workout hauling that guy around! 🙂

A beast of a camera. I have several medium format cameras but no 6x7. Until now. Just ordered a Koni Omega Rapid

That is a sweet ride Daddio! Bit of a beast just hanging around your neck though. I used to have my Yashica MAT LM on a neck strap but I found a shoulder strap to be mech more comfy.👍👍👍🤠

What a beautiful camera. I’ve never seen one in that good of shape. I hope to have one of these one day but idk if I could lift the thing up LOL

Nice video! I don’t recommend 4LR44 , they are unreliable and voltage will drop after some time. And always use up to date battery . The best is 4SR44

Nice! What a beast looking forward to see what you get with it. I'm keeping a low profile when it comes to commenting on vids these days Dave but I'm always watching and liking ATB :-)

Nice camera man! You gonna have some fun with that one. :)

That is a beauty of a camera, looks fun. Remember to eat your spinach before carrying it out and about. Happy Thanksgiving too. 🙂🦃

Awesome! I've had a chance to shoot the 67II, would love to add a 6x7 camera into my kit, but I'm more a 6x6 guy and should get my Hasselblad fixed before adding another medium format camera!

fantastic video, Thank you for posting and sharing those awesome images, i have recently bought mine but the pentaprism appears a bit rickety as one of the pins that holds it in place is damaged, will have to get that sorted, just a matter of curiosity was the picture of that young man with a cowboy hat and glasses your son? as that was an amazing portrait. please post more.

A great entrance into high quality 120! I learned a bit about the Pentax 67, as well. If you want to mix up the lo-fi and the high quality, I recommend Metropolis in medium format.

That was pretty daring, opening a 120 film and leaving it on the table. I'm always worried about light leaks so I continually apply finger pressure to the spool until safely inside camera. Also looks like you have a battery check indicator available.

Beautiful camera, I chose the other beast, the Mamiya RB67. It will be intersting to follow your journey with this camera.

Personally, I would trade the metered prism in for a non meter or even the waist level. Use a hand held light meter like the wonderful Pentax Spot meter or a pocket size Sekonic L-308. Either way, Enjoy!!!!

100 videos and over 2k subscribers, 3k soon :D. Excellent video 😎. The strap should be a gang chain :))))). I assume for battery you can use multiple round cells!?!

It is just like vinyl records. No matter how much technology advances, it is hard to find a substitute for the warmth of the older technologies.

I had two of these and sold them. I now have a Kiev 6c 6x6 slr with a 90mm 2.8 Vega lens. I bought it for £,75 from the Ukraine. £700 in profit.

Congrats on the new camera man!! That's sick. The bokeh on 14:39 is wiiiiild. Very nice. Looking forward to more 120 stuff from you ;) Next stop, Mamiya 645 ;) ;) ;) You can try out mine if you're ever in my neck of the woods haha

Hi, congratulations for your new "toy" :-) It looks very nice, it's in really good conditions. As a right handed myself, I would get rid of the grip. I think it would disturb me a bit rather than helping.

wow congrats! I recently bought one of these, its crazy t think that you got that bundle for $600.. I bought the most minty one I could find and its a mlu 6x7 for $600. even that was a steal lol

Great looking Pentax67 Dave! Now you and like myself will have one arm lager than the other due to it's weight! Hahaha! All you need now is a right handed grip to better control and shoot with for better control and feel like you are shooting with a ’SLR’ style camera! The bokeh out of the 105mm F2.4 will produce some amazing images!

Bro you're the beast slayer now haha lol. That's exciting. Tell me something, when you were loading the film why did you not have to fire the shutter between advances?

Beautiful camera. I always wanted one but while waiting to find an affordable Pentax, found a Koni Omega Rapid for very little money.

Great video! I'd lovw to have any good medium format camera, but i could only afford lubitel(blegh). Maybe after christmas I'll buy start or preferably flexaret as starts really got more expensive lately and they are almost the same price.

Brilliant. Looks heavy but I love heavy it makes you more stable. Cant wait to see more of the results. BTW what is the equivalent in 35mm to the lens? Something like 60 or 90? A.,

How much did you pay for this beast ? how much should someone spend on one t?

I wish that sometime, someone who actually knows something about the 105mm and has had serious experience with it would report in an objective way what they prefer about it. Of the several lenses which might be considered normal for the 67 system, it is the oldest (55 years old) and has never been updated like many others. It's "high speed aperture" is less than a 1/2 stop faster than the optically superior 90mm 2.8. "But it's famous". Before YT made it "famous", you could buy dozens of them for less than $250, often less than $200, so his price of $400 now is hardly a bargain. "But it has magical bokeh!" Blurry is just blurry, sweetheart. "But I like it." I think what that means is, "I like to look like a hipster." So why did Pentax introduce the original Pentax 6x7 with this 105mm 2.4 lens? It was the 1960s. Lens speed sold bodies, and for a long time this was the fastest MF lens on the market. And Pentax never let you forget it. Did anyone need it? No more or less than they needed a 80mm 2.0 lens for the Hasselblad 15 years later. In both cases, the slower lenses were the optically superior.

just sold my mamiya RB67 for this bad bot

It hilarious how people on RU-vid assume an air of authority on things they have no knowledge of.
