Shot some Kodak Gold 200. Nothing special, just aftermath of Christmas stuff.

...just wish... that they could produce a CHEAP-ish portable processor

LOL

Cool idea, i'm wondering if in that video the last one I mean, the Fuji print also was exposed properly, so you could have two prints?
Some people clean or "clear" the back of the "negative" of FP 100c with common bleach. There are threads on APUG about it, and also some youtube videos. I've not tried it yet.

I've done the bleach thing, it's easy and works.

The problem is the print and negative aren't together I don't think, so you can't take it out of the holder to use a rolling pin unless you do that in the dark (I think) so you would need to own MANY holders.

Good old HP5+-I've been using it since I started out in photography a good few years ago now [it was plain HP5 then!].

Yesterday I finished a roll of 120 outdated Fuji Provia in my 2002 Hasselblad in an A16 back on my wife's collection of Santas, then we went to a 40th Birthday Party and I took half a roll of 'Boots' ( Fuji ) 400 film in my Praktica MTL3 using my Mecablitz 45 CT1 flash. I have not used the Praktica for a while and people looked at it with 'amazement' as they were all using very small 'compact' Digital cameras or there phone gadgets!

Actually I am quite pleased with it having home developed.
There is a significant difference leaving c41 labs behind.

Used some Clorox bleach-gel to clear some of the Fuji FP-100c I shot in post (there was a url link here which no longer exists).
It was fun, but tedious. If I decide I like this, I'll have to find something better than the cheap picture-frame glass I'm using - Murphy's Law, Tyche, and I have an understanding, and it's not a good one

I'm actually shooting a test roll of 120 Agfa Crossbird 200 in a TLR that I'm going to send out for conventional E-6 processing. I love the Fuji E6 films but want to see what other palettes are available, and options are pretty limited. Otherwise, I have a 645 folder with TMAX 400, and a 6x9 one with some Provia 400X that are awaiting some opportunities.

Three rolls of E100G and a roll and a half of HP5+ at yesterday's Chinese New Years' parade here in Vancouver in the morning, and a roll and a bit of E100G and a half-roll of HP5+ down in White Rock late in the afternoon.

I tried some Portra 800 for the first time the other week (wouldn't normally buy it but 5 rolls came with a bulk purchase so I shot 'em at a family gathering) and developed it on Sunday afternoon. It looked OK coming out of the dryer and I'll see how it stands up to scanning in a week or two*. I shot it at EI640 or so and definitely got more speed from it than I do from 400, contrary to a couple posts here.

Also shot some Delta-3200 (similar situation - nice film but I rarely want to pay for it) at a night parade in my C220. No idea how that went yet.



* my backlog is getting stupid: 32 rolls in the cupboard on Sunday when I thought I'd have an afternoon free to run the Jobo, and processed 18 of them (C41). Need to do a B&W batch soon too. And scanning; I get through about a roll a night feeding my Nikon 8000 one frame at a time so that adds up in the worst possible way. And that's just the film backlog; my printing backlog doesn't bear thinking about, particularly given my recent losses to user-error with Sistan and needing to re-print a pile of B&W negs. I'm about 3 or 4 years behind on wet printing my C41 keepers, i.e. I'm printing at about half the rate I'd need to to keep up Going to need more automation I think, but of course spending some time calibrating things is time that I could have made probably 5-10 prints in.
