These 37 shutter sounds of old cameras are oddly satisfying

If there’s such a thing as ASMR video for photographers, this must be it. Photographer Scott Graham has filmed “a video no one asked for,” yet it’s still amusing and very satisfying to watch. In about three minutes, he shares with you shutter sounds of 37 different cameras, mostly old film and digital models.

Scott has a table full of old cameras he wants to sell, so he wanted to make something out of them before they all leave his possession. Also, he finds it interesting how different all camera shutters sound, even if they’re from the same manufacturer. So, he took his old cameras and recorded how they sound when he presses the shutter at around 1/60s.

If you find videos like this amusing and satisfying to watch, guys from Lensrentals did a similar thing. Only they didn’t shoot on old cameras, but compared 16 of the most popular models from major manufacturers.

And let us know: which of the shutter sounds do you find the best? And which does sound the worst to you?
