comfortable okay Cobham already running hello everybody welcome back to D cafe

photography I'm Josh and I'm Alex today we're doing something a little bit

different so be sure to tell us in the comments whether you want to see more of

this and what we can improve so without further ado let's get into today's new

and guaranteed to get a decent amount of clicks topic the ones thought dead

company Yashica [YASHICA] [Japanese stuff]

has pretty recently successfully started and funded a project through

kickstarter indeed and if you haven't already figured out from the title of

this video it's called digifilm now contrary to popular belief this isn't

what digimon fans have been looking forward to for the last 15 years before

before we get started let's get into a quick history of what Yashica used to be and

what it is today let's go to our resident expert in all

things film dr. P Yashica is a company that was established in 1949

2005 it was acquired by another business the camera that we're looking at the

camera that we're looking at this current camera

the camera that we're looking at is its first compact camera ever from the

get-go the kick-start it really gives you a sense of who this camera is mark

retort with a good looking video and a little I don't know what you'd call it a

blur pong little short story that's where else is there the silence of the

story you like taking photos and wishing the time still but what I want is to

capture the moment and to remember the long lasting feel I keep all photos well

reviving each and every you could probably stop it there I think that's as

much as you really need to tell there's silence of basically we'll cut to the

end yeah scroll down to the bottom there is never a narrator nor is it necessary

maybe I shouldn't read it you don't need a writer that's right I'm not sure what

that means you don't have to narrate it don't worry about it yeah there's no

narration yeah this is a story yeah so let's take a look at the physical camera

itself before we get into what makes this cameras are different it has a

weight has a 2.5 inch CMOS sensor is what you say it has a CMOS sensor it has

a CMOS sensor at this stage of making the video we're not sure what size it is

it says two different themes on their website on the Kickstarter so still

unsure 14 megapixels a 35 mil focal length an aperture of F Troop pointer

and a choice of SD card or Wi-Fi card according to the Kickstarter the new

camera will be combining this technology of the young electric 35 with the new

unprecedented DG film system now if you hold on one second we have the the

camera that it's based off right here it's no penny pre-need their goal is to

recapture the joy and meaning of analog photography without the time and expense

required for film Development Yoshika yes Scott I'm introducing a new digi

film system with the aim of giving

photographers the tools to achieve film as dust kicks without actually using

film that you can spot if the aesthetics they will have different types of digi

form that you load into the back of the camera similar to real film they list

ISO 1600 high-speed ISO 400 black and white 120 format of 6x6 and ISO 200

ultra fine you can't choose different filters / aesthetics once you have one

loaded if you want to do that you have to load another digi film cartridge to

win the film as you can see from this diagram all you have to do is number one

insert two double-a batteries number two insert the trademark DT film number

three or winder the film and number four press shadow to take photographs I've

been doing photography wrong basically we've struggled reading a few of these

things out and they've been quite funny because it's obviously the entire kick

start has been written in language and they've obviously google translator that

there's some sort of translation through English and it's a very poor form of

translation and a lot of it just does not make sense anyway you will

apparently need to load a digi film to create your album quite like a film

camera a brief pause is required to wind on while actually not winding anything

before shooting apparently this will grant us time to inspire and think the

exact moment the shutter snaps oh yes yes yeah

whether anybody really knows what this means is another thing entirely I feel

alright this is the part of the segment that I like to call ask the person who's

scrolling down our feed teleprompter to say a few words everything what do you

think about this so far the concept yeah that seemed less is really good and that

kinda looks pretty sick as well hi Jenna come in I really like this

camera cause it's got like an atom symbol got an atom symbol there so it's

got like you know technology that we just don't even know about yeah dual

camera what all right continue another thing they boast about is the

integration of a 4G lens you couldn't exactly decide for whether this is a new

technology that developed if it's anything like the 4G network I'm

assuming it's very fast but with our research online we couldn't really find

anything once we researched for gia lens and

typed into Google so maybe they didn't create this new technology that's pretty

cool yeah it was pretty cool they have done that if you know anything about 4G

wins this is please correct this in the comments cuz so yes she kept being a

very respectable and very very professional company they have put a

frequently asked questions tab on the Kickstarter and they are some pretty

good questions in it one like can I value an unedited and full size photo

samples how many photos can't ADT film hold I mean it took that's a pretty

reasonable question what photos have we saved an SD card but not in did you film

did you film provide different photography effect

yeah am i right thank you yeah she only wouldn't comment up with a penny protect

your lens from scratches that's a real question that needs to be answered

we confirmed the y 35 will come with a lens cap to protect the lens of y 35 is

when people ask like the question was what is the focusing system on the white

35 now that's you know what kind of like torrid brightness does it hat

the response is y 35 is equipped with a high quality fixed focus lens I'm not

sure if you know what that means but fixed focus lens I'm pretty sure that's

saying like a fixed focal length yeah that's about it for things of substance

in the Kickstarter there's a lot of colorful language synonyms and obviously

the questionable translation as you can see from the aforementioned the silence

of story which really wasn't beautiful at all the romantic language doesn't

really say all that much the silence of story it tells Josh it tells you know

what it means

after looking at the Kickstarter what are you what do you think that is X I

think it's a very cool and creative approach to digital photography it's a

big throw back to analog photography in it like we do we do hopping in a little

bit but we do in essence think it's pretty cool like the limitations of like

a certain film stock being stuck in that like you can't you can't change your

settings apart from that like that's I think that's pretty cool that is what

your totally is yeah god knows when I have a DSLR I snap photos like many

times a second so maybe this the silence of story will really make you think

about the shutter you know yeah it feels like a company that's trying to come

back into the mainstream through this like attention-grabbing sort of crazy

concept I guess it's proving to work because

we're talking about it now I I still think is gonna be a gigantic flop there

the camera it's gonna be huge well do you think it's a bit of a fad it's a bit

of a fads a bit of a money-grabbing scheme as well we're gonna try it so

it's like all the maybe old cameras on old style camera it's not it's not that

dissimilar to the fuji film film presets never thought that we look at all the

time which you can get for free and you can use for free very easily whether

like you don't have to open up the camera to change the preset it says it

your new way for it to wind okay that's cool but like that that has a purpose in

film photography like it's a key you're actually winding it with this it's doing

it just just to do it because you want to like have that a nostalgic feel and

like if there's no purpose to it then what's the point

kind of thing if I wanted to make a camera right and everything was perfect

everything was great but my shutter speed was terrible

maybe I should just add a Weinman somehow it'll be a selling point because

also think about any manufacturing they would have to go into your adding a

whine like whining sound like there's that increase in speakers I actually

think I might put mine down for this Kickstarter and hopefully when it comes

out if it actually eventually comes out we will have one on our hands

I'm not not promising anything but I am how much is it it's like 250 USD

estimated delivery April 2018 yeah I'd be pretty keen to put some money down

and maybe they'll have one to review and then probably sell straightaway just be

cheap be damn cheap 171 US dollars but yeah we will hopefully have one by the

time production starts and we'll be able to give you a real hands-on look at it

any other final closing thoughts well if you if you like the episode everybody
