My initial experiments with the Rollei film are going to be in 35mm, but it looks like I'll need to finally tackle fixing the seals in my Bronica backs. I get some edge fogging with one of them now, but it doesn't intrude into the image area so I haven't been overly motivated to fix it. Even in 35mm, I'll stick to cameras that I've re-sealed. BTW, there use to be a seller on Ebay going by the name "interslice" who sold seal material along with instructions. bought a big kit from him, but have used up most of it over the years and can't seem to find him now. Anyone know of anyone selling anything comparable?
I'll also keep my eyes open for some HIE. I found single frozen 2009 ex. rolls on Ebay for $40, but I have a hard time paying that much for a roll of 35mm film(my last Velvia at $12 a roll hurt).
