That's a lot of shots...

Picked up 10 rolls of Harman Switch and a cheap Symmar convertible 210/370mm.

Lifetime supply, most likely.

Lifetime supply, most likely.

Well... If you have the same shooting rhythm as I do, I think it wold last me 2-3 years.
Your post actually remembered me that recently I bought a 100ft can of Ektachrome Video News (expired) and I completely forgot about it, it's still sitting there with the Kodak-Pathè seal (made o fabric tape) still on.

One of the things new to me is the 3D printer and Minolta 16 cassettes are at the fore thought of photo related items I intent to make, and, having sufficient loaded cassettes means rolls can see more liberal use, I hope.

Got some rolls of Bergger Pancro 400 (2 of 35mm & 2 of 120) from Bluemoon Camera.

Also goot 2 boxes of Velcro Sticky Back For Fabric strips (this one: https://www.velcro.com/products/for-fabrics/sticky-back-for-fabrics/) for my messanger bag. Never new those existed till the other day when I was at walmart.

Don't like that the laptop sleeve in the Thinktank Vision 15 bag isn't sown closed at the bottom, so any random stuff I've put in it always ended up sliding down underneath the bottom & under my camera gear & had to dig around to find it, so now with the velcro stuck at the bottom of it, I dont have to worry about that any more (or deal with figuring out how to sow it closed)

A Pacchea VL airbrush, cups, for equipment repair, sand casting sand for making an aluminum gear for an Omega D enlarger rack and sand mold frame.

I'm hoping the airbrush will give a smooth surface to the, 4.0 black paint, interiors of lens hoods and pinhole cameras and the aluminum gears will be strong enough to daily use of the rack needing a nylon replacement.

 

[Disconnekt]

Got a very recently expired roll of Reflx Labs 250D & 500T (both in 120) off evilbay

 

[Kino]

Tired of just reading about all these exotic developer formulas, so I blew my mad money on an assortment of raw chemicals: Triethanolamine, Phenidone A, Sodium Metabisulfite, Propylene Glycol, P-Aminophenol, Sodium Metabisulfite, Potassium Hydroxide, Catechol, Potassium Carbonate, Anhy, Pyrogallol, Sodium Bisulfite and Boric Acid.

I am sure to be on a watch list now...

 

[eli griggs]

What'ch going to make?

 

[Tel]

Just bought a(nother) Rollei 35. Number 3; I don't really need it but I found one with the Schneider lens at a good price and I want to find out if the lens is better than the Tessar knockoff in my other Rollei 35's.

 

[Saganich]

Picked up a Keks Leica M meter before tariffs and finally got around to using it. Works well I give it an A, but you have to charge it or anticipate when your going to use it since the battery will drain out in 1-2 weeks without use.

 

[Kino]

What'ch going to make?

Want to try Pyro 510, Gainer's PC TEA and several others in John Finch's "Art of B&W Developing".

 

[Thwyllo]

A right angle viewfinder for the Konica Autoreflex range, of which I have quite a few. It was there, I had to have it. Don't ask.

 

[koraks]

Some B&W paper (RC & FB) and a single roll of Phoenix II to see how it compares to the original Phoenix.

 

[Chromium VI]

Triethanolamine, Phenidone A, Sodium Metabisulfite, Propylene Glycol, P-Aminophenol, Sodium Metabisulfite, Potassium Hydroxide, Catechol, Potassium Carbonate, Anhy, Pyrogallol, Sodium Bisulfite and Boric Acid

Well that's a big collection of developing agents...

What'ch going to make?

I did that with a chemistry kit when I was 11 and poisoned the family dog.

Good luck!

Well, don't need a visit by the HazMat Response Crew!

 

[mshchem]

I got a very nice Leicavit M (silver/chrome) for my MP. One of the silliest devices for an M. But it's fun to play with . It was cheap, or I never would have bought it.
I should put in a roll of Harman Azure and walk around with the Leicavit, confirm my insanity

 

[loccdor]

Lots of 120 film: Tri-X 400, Delta 400, Kentmere 400, SFX 200, Delta 3200...
