Why do youtubers walk around holding this camera like a 7 lb football? Or worse yet, in a back pack that takes minutes to retrieve the camera. Why not use a strap? I use an optech cross body and wear it 3 hours at a time with no ill effects. Camera rests on my right hip with strap across chest and back taking off some of the weight and I can either lightly support it up with my R hand or lightly press it against my side to further reduce the weight on my shoulder. I set exposure at each new lighting area, have the shutter button lock off, the dark slide out and the film advanced but shutter not cocked. It can't fire accidentally and I am reminded to cock the shutter/mirror because if I don't I can't see out the view finder and it won't fire. With an oleson split prism focusing screen, it snaps to focus faster than my manual focus 35 mm because I can clearly see the split prism coming into alignment. It is a JOY to use the wlf.
Really enjoyed that Vlog CJ. Beautiful video and loved the images even with the X-Ray issues. Keep them coming. Were you in Jordan specifically for photography?
Hey Stephen! Thanks my man, I’ve been wanting to shoot more. Hope all is well with you! And yes I do video assignments here in Jordan and I also love to do my own personal photography when I can!
My family is getting ready to move to Iraq in the fall. I’d love to hear more about what you do in Jordan if there is another way we could chat! Let me know!
@@shanetaylor1550 oh cool! I work for a media company here doing photo and video stories and then shoot film on the side when I can. Wish you and your family all the best, I’ll try to find you on facebook!
@@cjwomackI guessed right! Visited Jordan 2 years ago and shot some 120. I Really want to go back someday. Everyone’s so nice and friendly. If you wanna take a look sometime @spencersonaroll
