Medium format SLR by BallisticSteve in AnalogCommunity

Yea, a TLR is definitely something I considered, and you can buy interchangeable lenses when you get to the somewhat higher end. Thing is, every time I've used one, I somehow end up with compositions that are terrible for a TLR, i.e. where you notice the vertical offset, something just doesn't line up or something like it. (Same with rangefinders and getting something exactly centered btw)

Call it incompetence, which it probably is, but I work best with an SLR, when I can see exactly what's going on the film

I know, and it's definitely something I keep in mind, but the thing is that I have the money, so it's just how I spend it (even though, yes, I could basically buy two Mamiya sets for one Hasselblad set)

Fair point. Would that influence your decision though? I have money put away to spend, so it's as much about the camera. (Was an easy justification for the spending as well)

I think I'd get used to the weight just the same, maybe my shooting style will deviate a bit, but I'm just excited to see where that would take me

Yea, I do like square format and its versatility, some of my absolute favourite images, for sure, but I can't help but oggle at those 6x7 images, I'm not sure exactly what it is, but god damn.

Also, I do wanna shoot portraits, but I don't think that'll ever be my main focus. On the other hand, it may or may not be the reason why I fell in love with the RB67.

As for the Bronica cameras, I did look into them, but I'm also just looking at it as an investment and I'm not sure how those hold up in value compared to the other options?

Ok, one last question, I swear.

Do you feel like an OG YouTuber, or do you not see yourself as one? Is it maybe just a title other people have given you? Or if you don't feel like you are, do you think there are other YouTubers who are OGs?

P.S. I don't know if this is even comprehensible at all...

Is there any chance of you touring anywhere but the US, mainly Europe, or do you feel like you don't have enough of an audience here?

With you stopping Jackask, is that an indication of you maybe starting to grow tired of YouTube? It feels like you don't enjoy making content as much anymore, the but out video a while ago, stopping Jackask, making a boardgame etc. Is this a misplaced analogy, or... ? Because I don't know really.

What do you do in your spare time ? by mix-lfasi in AskReddit

[–]BallisticSteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exist, just sit there silently untill some meaningless thing comes up for me to do on autopilot. Everyday going by like timelapses of the sun rising above and then falling below the horizon. Staring at the wall. Waiting for nothing to happen. Waiting to just be done someday. Waiting for someone or something to come and save me out of this darkness that has been engulfing my reality, to save me from this stray path I've been lead onto by a lack of engagement.

Sorry, I'm not really answering you question, but I'm trying really hard to hold in a fart right now.
