Topic: J Brunner's brilliant, hilarious videos...

[original_ann]

I loved this guy and now his videos are all missing from You Tube.  I was trying to show my sister how you can determine focal length and aperture of an old lens using cheetos.  (Naturally, you could use anything - but he used cheetos).  He made everything so simple!  Is anyone else familiar with J Brunner and his large format photography videos? I'm wondering if he just pulled them and put up his own site.

I agree - he was great. I wonder what happened ...?

Perhaps the insidious nature of having to tie a Google account to YouTube or some other privacy issue prompted him to pull.  I've tried searching for him.  I vaguely recall him coming up on either apug or LF forums... Bummer - I wanted to show my sister how easy it is to determine the focal length and f/stops of an old lens.

He's a moderator on APUG, active recently.

I sent him a PM on APUG and I'll update this thread after he replies.

I remember the large format Photography trailer. The one where he sneezes on the groundglass.
They should be put back on. They are world heritage 
Kind regards

The last time it was archived was in June last year.
After that, the crawler got an expired website page

This is a true shame. I learned to develop film from his videos. He really made me laugh. Hope they resurface somewhere.

That's pretty much why I save so much stuff I feel is important or inspiring on Youtube.
I use DownloadHelper for Firefox. Not the easiest to use but definitely the one that's compatible with the most sites.
I also use http://www.clipconverter.cc/ for the videos I don't have access to.

I haven't forgotten to update the thread, I just haven't received a PM from him on APUG.
