Michael Raso gives a fast overview of the new Kodak Ektar H35 Half Frame 35mm point and shoot camera! The camera (and film) is available at filmphotograph...
THANK YOU SO MUCH for explaining the loading!! I think I might have exposed my whole roll because I didn’t know I needed go put it in the little slit so I had to open it up and re close it!! Fingers crossed I didn’t lose anything
Check with your lab that they scan/print half-frame negs -- developing is standard, no difference, but scanning and printing are definitely a little different. The Darkroom has a check box (and fee) for handling half-frame film.
I have a very stupid question...I didn't realize I could shoot up to 72 shots...so I rolled it back...can re-use the film? if I roll it up to 40 shots?
I’ve just used this camera and when having it develops was told there was nothing there just blanks/negatives 😭😭😭 I never exposed it to light, it was correctly rolled and I followed the same instructions on above video. I’ve no idea what’s happened
I just got this camera yesterday and am loving the simplicity of it!! I was just wondering if anyone knows how to tell what the frame number is though.. I’m taking photos in pairs but worried that they won’t be on the same frame…. !
I accidentally dropped mine mid roll and it opened up, effectively resetting the count. I have no idea which frame I was on. How will I know when to stop without going past the maximum?
Heya, I've taken about 50/72 pics on the camera and it just stopped working, the shutter button doesnt click when I press it. Can you offer any advice?
Without film in the camera, test the camera shutter as described in the video - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dUW2xgZG7XI.htmlsi=-G-4jwgMCAIbmcKa&t=64
It’s kind of not. The nice thing I think is that you’re able to choose your film since most disposables are 400 ISO. But tbh I don’t anticipate this plastic thing lasting that long even though it is “reusable”
One question to ask. Is it okay if we let the film in the camera if we wanted to shoot for sometimes for example: i wanna shoot some stuff today and tomorrow i think I don’t want to shoot anything and maybe next week i want to shoot some stuff(with the same film) or do we need to finish the film and shoot one at a time?
@@eatingbaconnieyour question is old, but let me answe it: let it stay. If you remove it before finishing, light will ruin the film. Once you finish (you'll notice because the rolling mechanism will stop and won't let you roll further), you have to roll back the film completely before taking it out. Battery is only used for the flash, you can take pictures without it, too, and you don't need to take out if you let your camera rest. If you don't use it for months or years, it's advisable to remove the battery so you can prevent leakage in the long run.
Test the shutter as shown in the video - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dUW2xgZG7XI.htmlsi=_SNau2t8y79cYZLB&t=62 - if the shutter works, you're camera works. - Mike
as there is two shots for 1 essentially , do you click once for the first shot and then click again without rolling the wheel for the second or do you need to roll the wheel for each shot?
@@FilmPhotographyProject Thanks for the quick reply but do you have to roll each time before each shot or do you click the button twice for the first two?
i dropped my camera a little but everything seems normal except that after winding completely and I press down the button , it does not want to take the picture
but how do you compose? i.e. how to know which part of what you see in the Viewfinder will come on which half of a frame? Also, what happens when I switch from horizontal to vertical composition?
kodak needs to make an slr type 35mm camera with the simplicity of the cartridge models. if they do, i will be the first one to buy one.i am sure that they will have full acceptance from the public.
I dropped the camera before using it for the first time, so I wanted to know what is the purpose of the top gear? For me it turns freely and does not trigger anything. Moreover, when I trigger a photo without film as in the beginning of the video, is it normal for the counter to remain on S?
@@saab3934 I was afraid that this is the one used for the counter, but in the end no! Basically it should turn freely, I took a 36 film with it and I didn't encounter any problems, everything was working fine. Just make sure the opening is going well, spin the lower wheel until you hear a click then face the light, take a picture without film and with the lid open, if you see the opening happening I think you have nothing to fear, your device is functional!
If you already have a Pen yeah there's not much draw here, but in its defense it's a nice cheap and more importantly readily available alternative. Sometimes just trying to find a Pen that is cost effective or at least not ragged can be a chore. The plastic lens is middle of the road but I've already seen some great shots with it so film choice and lighting will help fill the gap of the lackluster options and settings. Would certainly advise sticking to the popular "diptych" dual photo look that's in vogue, then you're not battling the half resolution.
So you went to the trouble of creating this video and you didn't think to include some photos showing what those half frames would look like? I know you displayed three measly images of a lake and a tree. How about something comprehensive instead of half-ass from a half-frame camera.
