The BEST Medium Format Film Camera for Portraits 

Damn I was just talking about cameras and their native lenses and attachments and y’all pulling out how this camera can take this lens with an adapter and attach to this and that 🤣🤣🤣 dang

A film vending machine literally sounds like something from a really strange dream that ends up with you on a photography trip with your primary school teacher and a pack of Amur leopards.

A film vending machine is mind blowing! Also, you should look into renting one of the old Phase One digital backs and mounting it on that RZ. People forget about the versatility that body has with the Phase One integration.

I use the RB67 Pro SD with the 127mm F3.5. I'm one of those weirdos who digs the all mechanical cameras. I hope people learn from watching you to get out and actually make photos. You're not constantly chasing for the perfect camera to make you a good photographer. You have a camera that works for you and you use the heck out of it. That's how it's done, y'all.

Man I don’t know if you’ll see this but I just want to say thank you for being you and showcasing US and just life in general through your lenses. I’m not a film photographer but you have inspired me to jump into that medium of expression - so I will this year. I will continue to support you and your channel and take in all the game you give. Again, thank you for being authentic and genuine in the way you communicate. Peace and blessings 🙏🏿

Hey young buck…. I was around when it was introduced. The 6x7 is a great format. I had an RB. However, I got tired of hauling it around. Therefore, I switched to Hasselblad 500CM which was my last film camera before switching to digital. However, I will leave you with this old tired saying…. “It’s the 6 inches behind the camera that makes the difference.” Keep shooting.

Owning the Pentax 67 and the RB67, man I gotta say I love both. It’s hard to say which one is better but there’s a time for both for sure. Their are situations where one is better than the other. Currently shooting the Pentax and for my style of shooting, I’m enjoying it the absolute most. I know I’ll own both in my life at the same time for sure.

I've been watching your videos for a while in the morning I watch, the more I like your content. Probably old enough to be your granddad. It's very inspiring to see young film photographers having the same passion I've had for over 50 years. Keep up the good work, don't always agree, but most of the time I do. Great job!

another Vuh vid, another banger. Sitting healthy, happy with a coffee in hand watching some Vuhlandes. No better way to spend my Tuesday night

Ill tell ya Vuh, I'm more fascinated at how good you are talking with the camera than anything 🤣 You could ramble on for a whole video and ill still be interested and watch the whole damm thing Meanwhile i'm having so many takes for my videos 😅

YO VUHLANDES HOW HAVE I NOT SEEN THE PHOTO @7:55??? That composition is sooooo good and completely removed from the actual location. I love when people are able to construct an image in a location that I've been to but I can barely recognize it. That is for sure the best image to ever be made under those two bridges. LETS GOOOOOOOOOO

A film vending machine? I didn't know those existed... also, awesome video as always!

Start the year off with a banger‼️‼️‼️

7:54 is god flow... crazy with the blooming bruh!

Video was lookin mad dreamy til the like button started staring at me, had to run my fade, safe to say that nigga in a coma. 🔥

New Vuhlandes Vid dropped 🤯

This was and still is my favourite camera, maybe as it coincided with going professional . It slows you down, so you spend time framing, but really allows you to see what you're doing with your composition. I used to most prefer the waist level with the side grip. It's too bad polaroid isn't around as that was where it shined, being able to quickly switch, check your exposure and I loved having a book of polaroids at the end of the year to go back over and remember. 665 and 669 and shutter speeds under 1/30 ( it went cooler) were outstanding. I might travel with a hasselblad ( smaller and no batteries needed) but I'd work with this one, the 6x7 was a more natural fit for magazines. The still life guys used to use the larger Fuji but it mostly lived on tripods, and there you wanted being able to shift your focal plane with the bellows. But I very rarely saw anyone handholding, and if they did not for long ; ). Your work is lovely and I can see your voice forming and becoming stronger.

Love it ♥️♥️♥️

Another Vuhlandes video to brighten up my day

RZ67 is like holding a new born baby in the arms! Heavy and Delicate!! Imagine trying to load a film while holding the camera, surely going to drop on the floor!!

The best camera is the one you have in the moment

For portraits it just has to be a Pentax 67 with an adapted Kodak Aero Ektar :) Potentially an adapted Schneider Cinelux or ISCO projection lens.

That film vending looks like the coolest things ever

I thought you were yanking our chains at "film vending machine"! And you were so casual about it. Everyone should have one just down the street. Great tour of your medium format thinking. Thanks!

recently moved on to a rb67 after using a pentax 67 for a little under a year. little bit of a learning curve, but I've been enjoying myself nonetheless. can honestly say in certain portrait situations id pick it over the pentax.

Yep

Tappin innnn 🥷

tapped in. all the time. Lets crush 2022

Mamiya is just a great brand overall especially the glass, never had a chance to shoot medium but I love my Mamiya DSX 1000 accompanied with the Mamiya Sekor 50 f2

Man, I’m probably one of the few that went from the rz and fell in love with the rb. All mechanical and I haven’t had even a percentage of the issues I had with my rz. But that’s just me. My rb is always with me.

Love your videos and your work. I shoot with a RZ pro ii. Beautiful cameras.

Always the best content! ✨

That vending machine though 😵‍💫😎😎 Damn wish they’d have that in The Netherlands 🇳🇱 Great vid man!

Awesome shots💥

Still the coldest in the game. 🔥🔥

This couldn’t have come at a better time. Buying my first film camera wish me luck 🙏🏽

A film vending machine ?! This is crazy ! Hope they gonna do some in Europe too that sounds so cool ! For me i only use the RB67 at the moment but i'm gonna purchase a Pentax 67 in japan when the borders gonna re-opened, i really love the shape of the camera. I think everybody got there own work flow & what camera you use is very personal but we all agree that some of thoses cameras are the best with no doubt because they prove it, like the RB/RZ, Mamiya 7, Pentax 67, Hasselblad 500CM etc... Great video Vuh much love from France ! 🇫🇷

Your work inspiring me, love you boy 🤟🏼

Bro I’m moving to Detroit they got a mf film vending machine?! Fuck am I doing wit my life, smh 🤣

That opening song was 🔥

I see you w the Rays hat! Trigga City 🌴

Haven't had the pleasure of using it before but it is crazy dope! Can't wait to experience a RZ67 one day! Right now I using the 6x6 Rolleiflex 6008I and I love it so much so I kinda stopped looking for a "perfect" all around camera because the act of taking photos with it is fun as hell and makes me enjoy it even more.

i see you with that Hard Jewelry!!!!

wtf !… a medium format vending machine. I luv it ! 🤣 Your pics are great. That RZ takes me back to when I started when the C330 was my favorite but soon became too bulky for the street. Moved on to the Pentax 645 which I still break out once a year or so when I need an “analog” fix

I miss my RZ sometimes no gone cap, Pentax pulled through for me tho

I really like the RB/RZ Mamiyas, but they are beasts in terms of size and weight. I prefer my 6x6 Hasselblad 203FE with built in metering, 110mm F/2.0 lens and the best choice of lenses in the business. Viewing prism and auto-winder are convenient and small. All well suited to street photography.

Loved this video.

i definitely got some motivation from this video bro

I am partial to a Hasselblad h series. They are still in production , good prices , parts , accepts digital backs (CCDs) self containing backs tu o carry both black and white and color and gold lenses, adapters to the V series lenses and decent AF with recompose assists if one gets a series 4. Ah I was forgetting the beautiful viewfinder.

coolest damn vending machine I've ever seen

Another dope video. Almost two years watching and subscribed. Love your photography. Hasselblad all the way for me, but love what you do with your RZ.

What gear was used to shoot the video at :30? The first clips after your Intro, what was it shot on?

Wow! A film vending machine. Convenient and smart!

Back with another bangers 🤘

I don't know if anyone can just go on campus, but try CCS college next to the DIA. The supply store used to have film at a good price.

need one of those vending machines in my life

When I did weddings with my Bronica I used a flash bracket that gave me a handle on the left side and I would wind the film on the right side.

I’ve tried the rB (via rental once) and I strongly agree I bet the rZ is just the same. I would definitely shoot everything on one if I had also.

You don't need validation from anyone, because your work is great. Space? Have you ever shot with a 4x5 a Calumet 4x5 and also I have a mamiya c22 professional .

had to tap in

I love how casually you just showed a VENDING MACHINE for FILM lmao

Vuh, but you ARE a world renown photographer. I'm French and I know you! I bought an RZ67 in part because of your videos. I can't thank you enough for the advice. This beast is awesome (I'm into the portraits game too). I have the 180mm and the 110mm. I may get me a wider lens now, since they're cheaper, maybe even an RB lens... Do you have any advice about that?

Amazing work! I'm looking to get in to film. Would like something for environmental portraits and landscapes. Great video.

I hear Vuh talking about people raging about things he says in every video. I just wonder if he actually faces that much backlash on social media. I can't read his DMs but it doesn't look like that to me tbh. His work is incredible and i haven't seen half a comment to contest anything he says. I'd bet that 97% of the people takes his and everybody else's opinion just like that. As an opinion. But I might be wrong. Anybody else is a witness of the backlash that he seems to experience on social media?

the fit tho!

Your photos are mad good fam 🥇

Also the fits lookin fresh

that cardigan 👀

I would love to know what video camera you use to film your videos! It’s beautiful🥺

Say what? A film vending machine OMG I love it. Anyway I shoot with an RB67, as you know it's all manual, I also use the WLF mostly for landscape but the eye level for portrait and some street photography. Anyway loved the video and rang the bell and hit the Subscribe button.

Which video camera you used to film this? It’s impressive

My humble Mamiya 645 Pro holds me down. Eventually I'll get an RB67 to step it up a notch.

Thanks for the video. Did you use portra 800?

Pentax 67ii is better to me. I love the ease of using one. They weigh the same, or maybe the 67ii is a little lighter, but the built in hand grip makes the camera really simple to use. The 105 2.4 and 90 2.8 are unmatched as far as medium format film goes imo

Que Fancy esa máquina para comprar rollos de fotografía analógica. 😱😲

Great channel, just subbed. The RB67 is an awesome camera, just remember to cock the shutter as well as the film back! I'm using a Bronica ETRSI at the moment as well as a few 35mm cameras. As I'm only 645 I may look at the Bronica SQ and go slightly larger and square but unfortunately there isn't a digital back for the Bronicas.

I think your creative mind is the best 'CAMERA' for portraits.

Do you have any tips on going about purchasing a used RZ67 body and parts? It's definitely been a challenge. I cant remember if you made a video on this or not lol but going to check!

Keep going!

I'm sorry, what?!?! A vending machine. That dispenses. Film!!!

I used that camera at a portrait studio back in the day. It's a good camera but it's too much for wedding photography. For weddings I used Bronica the square format. Now I shoot M43.😂😂😂

Needed this game

“…so to save you the rage…” LOLOLOL Trolls will be trolls

would you suggest getting this camera if it’s your first time trying 120 film?

He like… “no where to get film near my house… except for this film vending machine”. Bruh.. wut!?!

Hey man, can you make a video on how to upload to instagram without cropping the image? What apps or how you do it? Thanks bruh

Goddammit, I was just about to sell my RZ67 ProII and now I second guess myself..

whats your opinion on GW690? i just ordered one!

do you use a pro mist if so which ones

Really hoping it's something I've got as I can't afford another dream camera

Bro could you make a video using the pentax 67ii

*plot twist* That vending machine was put there just for you !!

where the cardigan from??

🔔

I know this is completely irrelevant to the video but you’re the only person i know to have the same name as me valadis

I own 2 bodies and it’s the only one camera I would use for 6x7

Like before you even finished saying "so"

Before everyone cries "But I can't afford this" then stop going for RB's, Rolleiflex's etc. These cameras used to be under $200 6 years ago. There are cameras that are better than them but YTbers haven't realized yet so their prices have been untouched. E.G Mamiya C330 is far better than a 124G and on par if not better than a Rollei 2.8f. Its still $200. Open your eyes and stop going for your fav RU-vidrs camera.

Mans got the og willemverb soundtrack on here

Yooo what pants are those??
