All assistance gratefully received!

Toronto is a big place. You'll find a few Henry's around town. But it's always a risk what's on the shelf.

Very many thanks for the contacts! Basically I'll be shooting some 135 over there and may need a little film that I don't want X-rayed (Delta 3200, HIE, etc.) and some small quantities of chems to process it (DD-X, TMAX dev, Ilfostop, Hypam, Ilftol).

Everything else (Patterson tank, reels, etc.) goes in my luggage!

Bob has pretty much covered all the note worthy stores. If he is busy and you need a darkroom there is always Gallery 44. 401 Richmond st. W. #120.

When are you coming over to visit?
Henry's (the downtown location) usually has a decent supply. Downtown camera always has tons of paper (RC,FB)and last time i was there had several boxes of Ilford postcard stock.

Best choice would be Downtown Camera
