PhotoUniverse

TheSwede · 10-17-2022, 01:59 PM

Hello!

New here... I have been following, Ed I think his name is, and I think the youtube channel is called PhotoUniverse but now I can´t find it so I think I have forgotten the correct name for the channel... It is about Pentax K-5, K-3 with different lenses.

Anyone with an idea of the name?

The name is correct. He deleted all his content from Youtube...

Hello, @TheSwede. Welcome to Pentax Forums!

Yes, I believe Photo Universe has disappeared, but Edward Martins runs this channel:

We've seen more Pentax dedicated Youtubers that have stopped promoting Pentax. I've got mixed feelings about them. Reasons might vary, but I think not being rewarded (sponsorship) is the main reason.
I might be completely wrong though...

Looks like he switched to Fuji

Right, but why delete the old content. Seems weird. Maybe I’m too history oriented. It happened, why sweep it away.

They promote a camera brand, without getting rewarded and move on to the next brand...In order to keep credibility you're better of deleting the old content of the other brand...
I cannot think of another reason why one would delete video's that took hours and hours to create...

He is now using Sony. He also has videos on the Pentax 6x7.

IIRC in the past he has expressed some displeasure with people hassling him - I don't know if it was trolls or what - so perhaps he decided keeping his Pentax content around wasn't worth the trouble.

I've watched several of his videos, but his content wasn't much to my taste.

He hasn’t been online here in nearly two months. Since he sold off his Pentax gear I’d say he isn’t likely to be back much if he isn’t checking in more often.
