Screaming film deal hezup

[Huss]

Midwest photo has Kentmere 400 36exp @ $4.79/roll.

Free shipping over $100 so I ordered 21 rolls.

Expiration date is 2026.

I love this film - it gives me that classic B&W look that I want.

Arista is cheap there, too.

You see the price on HP5 and Tri-X

Thanks for the heads up. That's a sweet price. I've never used Kentmere films, but the Foma 400 and 100 have been amazingly good films, and the one roll of Delta 100 was sorta on another level all together.

Used to be I shot Tri-X and developed it in D76 stock, every now and then I'd try Arista 100 at 50 and develop it in Mic-X or Rodinal. I have F76 Plus and Rodinal now, one of those should work w/ the Kentmere.

I've used a bit of Delta100 and love it. D76 and xtol both work great, but it's like tmax in that even the slightly grainier stuff scans nicely. I actually think I'll snag some of the Delta 100 and maybe freeze some of the HP5 at this price.

The under $4.79 kentmere -- That's as cheap as my bulk loading HP5 at $80 per 100', which is a price I don't think we'll see in the future. I can shoot and dev at $5 a roll total.

Thanks for posting. Some good prices on 120 film as well.

Thanks for the heads up, I did a minor splash in the tank considering where prices might go.
