Wow, never seen any vintage cans with holes in them. Do they look factory made or done by user? Nowadays they have archival plastic cans with a couple of small holes cut in them.

The European Union's new data protection law is intended to strengthen privacy rights and stop abuses by social media giants. But the law also forbids people from posting anyone's picture online without their permission and that includes tourist vacation photos. https://www.npr.org/2018/05/24/614195844/new-eu-data-protection-law-could-affect-people-who-take-pictures-with-their-phon ...sounds bad for street photogs in the EU.

A textbook example of archive organization... https://danieldteolijrarchivalcollection.wordpress.com/2018/05/24/a-textbook-example-of-how-to-organize-an-archive/

Hey, people are still asking how to recreate Autochromes from the turn of the century. 7 years is no big deal.

Asking someone if they shot manual focus or manual exposure is stupid. (still photography)

Newspapers were so important at the turn of the century that they printed them on the train between destinations. https://danieldteolijrarchivalcollection.wordpress.com/2018/05/20/all-but-forgotten-the-press-car/

OP...order a bunch from B&H. Test them out, send back what does not work.

Don't have a specific desire. It is not for big screen anyway. I guess I should just go with some little mini cam with interchangeable lenses and try to work with it. The spy type camera may not have many / any lens options.

The camera can be part of a system that has an outer camoflage case. Something that shoots well in subway car light.

Sold out? What sort of run did you do? Are you printing a 2nd edition? Sell a PDF on CD? Do you have a galley proof to sell?

Great snapshot on technicolor. Beside how amazing technicolor was in its day, isn't it also amazing how so much work can go into a YT and how little likes it gets? The millennials hand out likes like they cost a million bucks each...huh.

What most of us probably dont know is that he started his creative endeavors as a still photographer. Even more surprising, he started down that path as a precocious 17-year-old who eventually landed a job as a staff photographer for Look magazine, the storied pictorial competitor to Henry Luces Life. A new exhibit opening May 3 at the Museum of the City of New York titled Through a Different Lens: Stanley Kubrick Photographs, brings together more than 120 photos taken by Kubrick during that time. Cumulatively, this exhibit provides us with a glimpse of the creative force the young Kubrick was and the one that he would eventually become."

Yes, storage and air circulation seems to be the key. If a film has warped badly and is really stinking of vinegar it can be preserved in in current state by freezing it. I've had some luck with mild cases of VS by airing the films out for a few months. The archival cans have air vents in them for circulation / off gassing. I have some tests underway with chemical treatments for VS. Results should be available in June.

What was the exact problem with my post? The discussion was about YT, I posted my experience and opinion of YT. Is that not allowed?

Well, it would just be for the US. It would be censored in their country. China and Russia does not care about copyright, sothey would be good to run it. But, maybe the US would shut it down...dunno? I know all you like to make $ from your films. But my interest when it comes to film is in archiving short subject films...copyright or not under fair use. And in the big picture, if something is a good film I buy a DVD to watch it on big screen. I don't want to see the film on a3 x 5 inch screen. Although, nowadays I guess they use the internet to put on big screen. I don't do that as I am on a budget. Copyright is the archivists enemy. Being an underground photographer and underground archivist, copyright means nil to me...as long as the copyrighted material is used for non-commercial educational, historical and editorial purposes. $ is where I draw the line. Are you doing it for history or doing it to make $? Now, my views on this subject are not mainstream archivists views, but I did say I am underground. If I followed directions,normal societal conventions, I'd not have a fraction of the photos I have shot over the last 50 years.

i don't know anyone who could afford a private data-line Bloomberg or one of the other rich as hell zillionaires could do it without burping ...if they took an interest in this subject. Personally, still photography and small gauge films are my life. But it takes $ and having the $ to throw at it is my downfall.

D) if all else fails, you can rent, lease, buy or build your own damn server and post your stuff on it. You can put your work on the Internet Archive. Not as slick as YT, kinda a half-ass approach and little censorship. If I hit the lotto I'd make a video site for my film archive and anyone else that wants to send in films. But I don't like garbage. Whatever was sent in would have to be somewhat interesting to archive. Don't know much about computers, so would have to hire someone to do it.I'd make an uncensored archive. You could put anything on it legal. Just no porn after the film era, say 1985. And even if it was not exactly legal, but no one could do anything about it...send it in. As an archivist, I personally have no limits. I'm only bound by the law. But all this internet stuff is very wishy-washy. It can go poof in the blink of an eye. That is what YT did to me. Upload is there 3 months, everything is fine, then they remove it and ban me. Here is an interesting one I did on Eastman House...2K scan. I've used Vimeo a little as well, but scared to put any old porn on it. Have some very rare porns going back to the 1920's. I like old porns. Relatively cheap, no copyright issues generally speaking and interesting, historical material. The first film I put on YT was about an opera singer. I paid a bunch of $ to do it. Within a few hours of uploading YT yanked it for copyright and banned me for 2 weeks. **(obscenity removed)** YT, you can't do any serious archival work on YT.

EKC 7 inch 16mm Humidor film can. Camphor oil was used on the paper humidor to help keep the film from getting brittle. Reels and film cans are pretty interesting all by themselves.

Listen, I get nothing from my archival work, not one penny. I fact, I have to pay to do it. YouTube banned me after 6 uploads. I got 400+ films to archive and put online. I didn't blow up and go shoot people at YT. Just how things are. I try to work around it. It would be nice if Russia or China made a US YouTube where copyright and censorship were not issues. They could call it Watchit.

Do some lighting and tests shot ahead of time. I get inspiration all over. Do not think of it as work, just open to it. Write down some notes of ideas and see where I can apply it.

AACA builds a 16mm film scanner Short 16 min film. Machine is slow, but it works!

Isn't it sad OP. All that work just to have the film ruined. In 2018, just how it is. Good luck with your film!

Years ago I was on the Large Format Forum, but eventually they banned me as they did not like my photography. There were a couple of guys there that really impressed me. Ed Ross was one of them. He was a modern day tintypist and wet collodion devotee. Sadly he was killed in motorcycle accident in 2016. I had saved a lot of work as it had a poetic quality that appealed to me. I decided to make a post showcasing some of it as there is no organized collection of photos I could find online. When he kicked off I guess no one paid the hosting bill and his website went poof!
