Fujifilm Fujicolor Superia X-TRA 400
Yes I shoot all the boring consumer films lately

Superia X-TRA 400 is an excellent film: I bought me a large stash (getting very small though) of this film in 120 roll film and use it for pinhole photography.

To be honest my Fuji Superia/Kodak Gold stash is typically just used to test new cameras. Currently testing a Rolleiflex SL35 and a few Rollei lenses for future sale.

I think the worst problem with Consumer films is consumer processing. Send it to a good lab or do it at home and to me it looks pretty good.
+1 on that-I've been using One Vision [formerly Colab] in Coventry for 25 years.

HP5+ with FM2n & Nikkor 28mm f/2.8 Ai-S, both recently acquired. Took some photos of two new ducks that my wife bought today. I'm enjoying this fully manual camera a lot. :smile:

In the Olympus PEN E:
- Kodak Ektachrome 1600P, intended for cross processing, at EI 200.
- Ilford Pan 400 @ EI 200
- Kodak MAX 800 @ EI 200
In the Hasselblad:
- Kodak Portra 400

Currently working on a roll of Fomapan 200 135-36 in the Olympus. I love this little camera, and it's a way for me to document my year while I don't have time for darkroom. It'll be interesting to go back later and see what I will have seen next year when I'm finally done with school.

It says COLOUR on here --- well I took a roll of 120 2002 outdated Fuji RMS in my Pentax 6x7 Mk II in London a couple of days ago around the Thames Embankment area and it is in for processing as I don't do my own E6. I did a roll of outdated Ilford Delta 100 in my 6x7 MU Mk I body as well and was very disappointed to see most were unsharp due to 'focus' -- Maybe I moved the focus as i was holding filters over lens but one where I screwed a RED filter in was also not sharp enough.

That's no good Pete. I wonder how the P67 focus issues happened. I have not developed the Fomapan yet but was using the 2.4/105 for most of the shots that I took.
What was your lens?

Re 6x7 focus --- I used the 45mm f4 SMC Pentax and some on the 75mm f4.5 SMC Pentax 'shift' that were not sharp enough -- under x6 magnifier the focus seemed to be much closer -- now i have seen that the camera back 'moves' a bit and had a look at the seals and they were ROTTEN after 36 years all along the grooves top and bottom -- so I have just RENEWED them and have closed the back so seals c an 'settle' and in the morning will have another look.

Isn't it just? I've got some great results with it in my Zero Image pinhole camera.
Also shooting XP2 in my Trip.

Fomapan 200 in 135 format and 120. Going to process in Harvey's 777 to see how that works out.

Took out the yashicamat this weekend. HP5+ developed in Microphen, and 2 rolls of Portra 400 developed in a unicolor/tetenal kit. It was my first time using Microphen, and so far I like it.

After getting inspired by a couple of Andrew O-Neill's architectural abstracts, shot at SFU (1 1/2 blocks from my doorstep), I grabbed one of my M6s, mounted a 50 'Cron on it, grabbed two rolls of HP5+, and went over at daybreak. In 2 1/2 hours, I shot almost two rolls; once processed, I'll have a good look-see, and head back some time in the future with a Hasselblad and a couple of rolls of PanF+.

Earlier this week, another calotype ( homemade paper negative ). Need to prepare more salted paper before I can print. First time I've had a backlog of calotypes to print, and it's a great feeling... nice to have something fun to look forward to.

Last week on vacation, a couple rolls of Adox CHS II 120. So far I've only made a couple prints with this film, but my first impression is that I like it very much but wish it was not so curly. I have a roll in a printfile sleeve that has spent a month inside a heavy book, and it's still really curly, the whole page curls when I take it out of the book. I'm not at all sure it is flat in my glassless carrier... I think if I want to keep shooting this film I'll need to find a 6x9 glass carrier.
