what waS your last photography related purchase?

[Theo Sulphate]

A 16x20 frame and matte. Not for one photo, but for multiple smaller photos.

The idea is to get my photos out of albums, envelopes, and shoeboxes and have them up for display for a while before rotating to the next batch.

I'm currently viewing a selection of FP-3000B photos.

Two Polaroid Land cameras - a 250 and a 360, plus 10 packs of FP100c (exp 2017) and 5 of FP3000b (exp 2018!). What can I say? Despite the cost I'd kick myself many times over for not taking the chance to shoot these iconic cameras and film.

 

[R.Gould]

5 litres of fixer, 2 litres of Rollei rhs developer, 500 ml of Rollei wetting agent and a Patterson force film washer as my previous one's hose wore out after 25 years of use

... FP100c (exp 2017) and 5 of FP3000b (exp 2018!)...

Methinks the home market gets the fresher film! The best I've got for either is Aug. 2016. Yet, this is encouraging - since they stopped production of FP-3000B about two years ago, that means they expect it to remain good for quite a while. I hope they made many tons of it.

Two Mamiya TLR blue dot Seiko shutter CLACs from Carol (Flutot) Miller at Flutot's Camera Repair. This round it was the 80mm and 180mm. Up next will be the 65mm and 135mm. Eventually all seven will be serviced.

Noteworthy was the fact that I was informed the 80mm only required that the speeds be recalibrated. No internal cleaning and relubrication was required. The cost savings to me were substantial.

She didn't have to tell me that...

[Bill Burk]

To help with test related to the Kodak gray card thread, I got 0.1 ND and 0.2 ND Kodak gelatin filters.

And just because it was there on eBay with a reasonable starting bid, and nobody outbid me... Another SEI photometer.
