I ordered (another) 5cm f2 Nikkor 39mm Leica screw mount lens from a fellow in Japan. Don't need it. Sure is a nice little lens.

A 3-pack (because cheaper that way) of 1/8 hole punches to perforate the tails of Minox film for the daylight load tank.

Bought a year's supply of E-6 kits from Film Photography Project. Works out to just over $3 per roll.

 

[eli griggs]

Lume cube kit, three 30" stands, two waterproof cube lights, one more Pro Panel Pro 2.0 light.

I need to try making barn doors and honeycomb masks, their prices seem too high, given the reviews I've read.

All together with the two lights I already have, a great little small bag kit.

I found this 3D model on printables.com and had a local etsy store print it for me. I had this Olympus XA for some years.

I always wanted a better way to use filters with the XA. I tried using cut to fit gels but never was happy with them. Plus holding a filter in front of the lens without worrying about taking a finger selfie was a pain. I Hope to try it out this weekend.

The 49mm filter fits snug and I do not worry about losing it. The attachment does not interfere with the focusing lever.

Saunders 4-blade 11 x 14 " Easel in Mint

 

[Kino]

Archival Methods 4x5 Side Lock Sleves, Polypropylene - 4 x 50 packs.

I prefer these to other brands. Easy to use and crystal clear.

PS: Just pulled the trigger on these add-ons and similar kits for Cube shaped lights, just to not to have to bother.

Cup of noodles this week.

I just ordered a 40.5mm uv filter from B&H, 10 minutes later I found a new one in a undisturbed bin.

A box of 6,5x9cm Fomapan 100 - 50 sheets

 

[Jbennett68]

A peak design slide strap for some bulkier cameras so I can easily swap it between them and just have 1 strap. Only one color to choose from but they were over half off when I ordered.

I just snagged some Leica film cassettes at my little antique shop. Beautiful things!

Were you able to get the original cans too?

Were you able to get the original cans too?

I got a couple, plastic screw top jobs with a easy to lose gasket. I use the black Ilford plastic cans. These are the M versions that work M4 on back to the beginning bought 15 for 10 bucks a piece. 2 had some ancient film, I took a few exposures, it responded to light but was terribly age fogged, no lettering visible. Film was quite brittle.

Mine wear metal cans with tops but I suppose it the later years, plastic cans were available.

Can you post Images.

Leica Reloadable Film Cassette – IXMOO

Many 35mm rangefinder camera makers offered a reloadable metal film cassette for use with their cameras. Maybe one of the first to do so was Leitz for their Leica cameras. Pictured below is one of …

Earlier today, I snagged this N.O.S Paterson Photo Filter System for 5 loonies at the thrift store.

120 brick of Kentmere 200, and 400, 4x5 box of Retropan 320, and a 4x5 box of Fomapan Ortho 400. Spending my substitute teaching money with reckless abandon!

 

[abruzzi]

a 4x5 box of Fomapan Ortho 400.

I just saw that this existed and grabbed a couple of boxes. I shot this in 120, but I prefer Foma in sheets since sheets don't curl.

I'm curious to see if you are able to get a decent max density out of the Retropan 320...I haven't been able to, using Rodinal, D19, and HC110-B.
My most recent purchase is a pack of 35-7B negative pages.

It's spectral sensitivity graph is what made me buy a box. I'm intrigued by the spike in the green part of the spectrum. I've never seen that for an orthochromatic film. I thought about trying out a roll of 120 first, but yes, that incessant curl!!

Hi,

just ordered a brick of Ilford PanF Plus in 120,
a bottle of Se toner (Kodak RST) and some restrainer (benzotriazole).
This is to try a pyrocat paper dev. formula with Adox Lupex...
