What's your latest Film/Paper Purchase.

[Vincent Peri]

I bought 25 rolls of slightly expired (1/19) Fuji Provia 100 slide film at BH Photo Video for $5.99 a roll this week.

 

[R.Gould]

30 rolls of Fompan 400

I've just bought two 10-sheet packs of 30x40cm Fomabrom N112 paper. Can't wait the Friday darkroom night.
And there is also some spotting dyes on the way from the USA.

Fomabrom's a lovely paper-nice old school quality to it.

It might have been stored improperly or maybe the developer didn't suit it well, but the prints appeared to be rather low in contrast and with a slight greenish tint.

One roll of 35mm Rollei Retro 400S from B&H. It was enough to put my order over the magical "free shipping" dollar amount. Before that it was 4 rolls of the new Ektachrome E100.

Hmmm, you could well be right there, as I've never noticed that with Fomabrom so far.

Honestly I only bought 2 rls of film...,.

That should keep you going for a while!

Pretty much every thread on film availability or product being shut down has talk of how much film is being purchased or not being purchased. So, why not put it out here, we might as well state how much we are selling/buying!







[Mods: Please move thread, if you feel its in the wrong place]

I was happily surprised to see that Foto Impex in Berlin has a full selection of my favorite B&Wfilms and I'm about to order some MF120 Ilford FP4+ for an upcoming Zone System workshop in June/July.

I ordered a box of Ilford 5x12, FP4+. A gift for a friend who has a nice 5x12, wants to use it, but has no film. Special order, so he'll have to wait.

I'm going to print my Forte Polywarmtone. It's still good and I've got tonnes of stuff to print.

Lucky you-that used to be one of my favourite papers. Fomatone MG is promising though.

I just ordered some Fomatone MG 132 last night. Freestyle, I've got a small stockpile of Fomalux contact paper. Foma makes beautiful papers.

I bought 3 rolls of kodak color, 5 rolls b&w and was not looking for any more cameras. I fell in love with a 4x5 circa 1900, wood and polished metal, very nice condition. I told my wife that changing hobbies from shooting targets and or deer, is more expensive. I can't do both. A camera sale is due, about 100 of some beauties. Stay tuned.

There was a Puma sighted in Iowa, they are here just usually no one sees them. This lonely young fella got caught on a security camera.

Like I have told people, the most dangerous animal in the lower 48 is white tail deer . Especially for motorcycles.

I would have sworn it was people.

Agreed! !!

My very first 120 film rolls...!

I don't know if I dare put it in the 1920's Hawk-Eye, designed for 116 film size, originally... long time since this camera has seen film, as I found it in the old house attic, in 1990.
The Super Ricohflex I was given has also not seen film since the late 60s, I guess.

I am grateful for the help I received here on the forum. Wish me luck!

Do you have adapters? The spool for 120 film is both shorter and smaller than the spool for 116 film.
And of course 120 film is narrower.

Two hundred sheets of 5x7 film (TMax400 and TriX) bought from Peter Schrager on this forum...nicely and quickly posted to me. Now in my fridge for my future pleasure...tho I get some pleasure now knowing it is in there.

I am gambling that my original 116 format wooden spool will take the exposed 120 film, and then unload in the dark, to developing tank! I have an old 120 film (only), so I can practice the motions.
