For Sale 320TXP in 220 -- 15 rolls

[Michel Hardy-Vallée]

Well, it's the second roll that I ruin because my Paterson reels are such a pain to load with 220, and for what's left of 220 B&W, I don't think I'll gain much by investing in Hewes reels.

Since it's been discontinued, I've had mixed feelings about using it: I haven't had the time to learn sufficiently about it, but didn't want to miss out on a classic.

I think it's time this film goes instead to someone who has worked more extensively than I with 320TXP and who can use the film with brio.

150$ for the whole stash + postage.

Also willing to trade or use towards the acquisition of lenses/accessories for Nikon 35mm, Mamiya TLR, or Zeiss Contax RF, or a 4-blade easel.

I would prefer sell to one person rather than split into multiple packages (don't have the time for it).

The film has been kept in good conditions, hasn't expired yet (see pics), and will give you 360 shots.

Hi Michel,

I am interested to trade for lenses/accessories for Nikon 35mm. Can you let me know what you are looking for? You can send me a PM if you want.

Thanks!


Regards,
Sanjay

Nikon: I'd be looking for manual focus lenses. The 28 mm AI-s would be fun, a good 20mm, or a 85mm f/2.

My Nikon setup is an FM2n with motor drive, and I already have a 24, 50, and 105.

 

[Sanjay Sen]

Unfortunately, I don't have any of those. But thanks for the prompt reply.

I have a Mamiya TLR 65mm lens in a black shutter in rough shape. It has a leather case and a front cap, but no rear cap or hood. The shutter speeds work properly, but there is a very slight (split second) delay between when you press the trigger and when the shutter fires. it has bad cleaning marks all over it. It still makes sharp images. I don't know if something in this sort of condition would interest you.

I would like the film if 2f2f does not buy,$150.00 .
Mike

 

[2F/2F]

I am sure $150 sounds better than that lens+cash!

 

[mike c]

Don't have any Mamiya ,Nikon,Contax stuff,do have a four bladed easel... but its the only one I have.

If you're interested in either of my Tamrons, I'd trade for TXP 220. You can find Nikon and other adapters easily on eBay or at KEH.--

(there was a url link here which no longer exists)

 

[Chazzy]

Has the film been stored in the freezer or refrigerator, or at room temperature?

 

[Michel Hardy-Vallée]

Chazzy: Room temperature in the darkest recess of a closet, away from sources of light and heat.

2F/2F: I already have a 55mm for my TLR, so I'll pass on the lens.
David: Tamron, not sure I'm hot for it. I guess I'm a fashion victim and prefer Nikkor lenses...

I'll wait a little bit for trade offers, and if nothing arrives, then the film will go to the first cash buyer, which in this case is Mike C. (Sure you don't want to part with that easel? )

 

[Michel Hardy-Vallée]

PS: if you're good boys and girls, I might tell you about where I saw 320TXP that was still on the shelves somewhere....

 

[2F/2F]

If, for some reason, Mike C. changes his mind, I will pay the cash price.

 

[mike c]

You were first Rob,go for it.

Mike

 

[2F/2F]

Actually, you were the first cash offer, which Michel will take if he doesn't end up with a good trade.

 

[mike c]

Ok,then my offer still stands.

Mike

 

[mike c]

Micheal, it's the only easel I've got .

Mike

 

[Michel Hardy-Vallée]

OK, so decision is made: I will trade the 320TXP for a lens with Herb. As I said earlier, I wanted to look at trade offers before money, so thank you all for your understanding and interest.

I'm going to look at my local store to see if they still have 320TXP left, either in 120 or 220. I'll report on the findings, and would be glad to help out anybody who wants to order a goodly amount.

 

[mike c]

120 works good to Michel,thanks.

Mike

 

[MattKing]

FWIW, the last time I was there, Lens & Shutter in Vancouver, BC had what appeared to be about 8 propacks of slightly outdated 320TXP in 120 on their shelves.

That is at their West Broadway store.

 

[Rick A]

I have a like new Tamron 2x teleconverter for Nikon, has the case and both caps, I'll trade for a box of said film.

 

[Michel Hardy-Vallée]

**TRADED** for a lens with herb c.

Thanks all for your attention; if you ever stop by Montreal, go to LL Lozeau and Photoservice to see what's left on their shelves. Last time I noticed a couple of 120 packs available.

Goodbye, 220.

 

[mike c]

Well I'm glad it worked out for ya Michel,I still yearn for 120 or 220 txp but just bought a 4x5 camera today and " 'em out of cash."
