Hello from Connecticut's Coast

[AutumnJazz]

I had stopped shooting at all about three years ago, but an avid photographer friend got me interested in it again. I've picked up a Nikon F100 and 24 - 120 VR lens. I'm currently shooting a few rolls of Fomapan R100, Kodachrome, and Fuji Velvia 50 to see what I like more. I was big into t-max when I shot before (on a Pentax K1000 + 50mm lens), but B&W slide film piqued my interest.

It is nice to find a forum dedicated completely to film. I shall now begin to lurk around, and learn.

Something I'd like to know is if there is a good place to get E-6 processed in Fairfield County, and if there is a place to get some film. The only local film stores around here are essentially Ritz Camera stores, which don't really carry anything.

Thanks to all.

Welcome to APUG from north central Mass. I can't help with the E-6 processing in you specific area, but if you want to ship film, Dorian Color Lab in Arlington, MA (near Boston) does excellent E-6 processing.

Welcome to APUG from NYC.

Even though I live in NYC - I often order film from Hunt's up in the Boston area. They have a wide range of film and for small lots often are cheaper than ordering from B&H which has to charge me in-state sales tax plus the same shipping cost!

Go figure.

Welcome from western PA. I used to live in West Haven, but I didn't shoot slides back then, so I can't help with a lab.

Hope you'll join us this summer at the other end of CT for the party. Look to the regional forum for updates on the June cook-out. Welcome to APUG.

Hello & welcome from Portland, CT. Can't help you on the E-6 locally. For film, if you're ever passing through Middletown, Midtown Photo still stocks film (& some chemicals). As an alternative, Adorama or B&H deliveries arrive pretty quickly in our neck of the woods.
