now i'm starting to read more&more posts about lucky users which can afford investments of k of $ in stashes of film and refrigerators.
Something like " i feel a bit better regarding the Kodak...
it's intresting to read how many photographers praise their self and their possibility to invest k of $ in all kind of stashes of film.
It sounds like "you know, i'm feeling safe because i have...
meanwhile the prices of the kodak film jumped up...
at Badgers the prices jumped up at the few days ago. The ektar 4x5 went to 26$, from 23..also the portra 160/400
yes Dave, that's the problem, the vertical bands of varying density. Considering that we've performed the development by hand rotation of the drum (due to the sudden death of the motor...) it's very...
Thx for the reply Gary;
the milky spots&splashes seems to be connected to the bleach step (considering the indication of the colorkit manual).
The other rounds of developing were done using the...
i know that the rinse has to be done before the stabilization, but we though that would be necessary also after it, for removing all the froth that remained on the negatives.
Only after (today) we...
Hi all,
recently i've bought with a friend a Jobo CPP2, in order to gain our independency regarding the C-41 color development.
We've managed to start the process with good results, developing...
yes, we have ilford, but my concern was related to the color negative extinction, not the BW one :)
Sincerely i'm really thinking about the life of the Fuji 160NS (4x5); it could be a very good solution, if will last. Now everything depends on how Fuji will consider their future, by takig the...
Probably you're right, the glass is half full, but considering that not everyone is able to invest K$ in stocking, i will try to convince myself about the half full :). I saw several users stating...
i'll add also that almost daily i read new threads about new discontinued product or services: "no more E-6 developing ehere and there", "discontinued ilfochrome" etc
As i've stated, i'm mainly...
same here.
If shooting film/LF will become so specialized all the available film, i mean the remaining producers, will sell their product in a appropriate range of price, and i mean high.
Also...
Not even with 1000 boxes of film i would feel safe, and at this moment i can't even afford 10 boxes...
Congratulations for your choice.
I've also sold my 5DMKII in order to fund my ebony 45S, without any kind of regret.
Nice to transform a gun into a lens, but maybe you'll still need a gun with...
Tom, thanks for the advice...anyway, i was a bit ironic about the price :D
Probably in the near future (maybe already now..) would be useful to build a film availability database, in order to know...

20 sheets pack of Fuji 160NS = 74£
Not bad at all....:eek:
:rolleyes:
Yes, probably. But it's a bit sad to see a resolution in that...
At least, for the moment, on the Fuji site the 160 NS is still available.
What a sheet situation :)
Yes, i'm aware of the fuji alternative, but, as you stated, this isn't the easiest film to get, in sheet format.
And for how long also the Fuji solution would be on the market? or the Ilford ?
...
i have to say it once more: for my work i'm not interested in BW, my needs are connected to color, especially color negative.
For me using Ilford or any other BW support instead of color, is like...
I've bought the LF setup in order to shoot color negative; also on medium format and 35mm i've almost always used color negative.
I'd feel even more raped if i'll have just one option (BW), which...
Kodak bankruptcy soon inevitable?
Today i was hit by a very heavy frustrating and "almost confirmed" news: Kodak is very near to declare bankruptcy in the 2012.
I saw another thread about the news of the discontinued 8x10 Ektar...
Thanks for your replies; probably i'll go anyway for the Ultra Brilliant, 'cause i really want a clear improvement for the interiors/dim light situations, and not risk to spend 450$ just to have a...
I have one more doubt regarding the possible order...
I shoot both outdoor&indoor scenes, and for the indoor the ebony GG it's clearly pretty dark.
When i started considering the GG...
quickload system
Thank you all for the help.
It seem that probably i will be able to do the job; i'm still a bit preoccupied for the process, because i'm not very skilled in this kind of task, but i'll give it a...
I have a 45S and i intend to put on it a Maxwell ultra bright matte 4.7.
Considering that Joanna has changed the screen exactly on a 45S...any advice would be great (and also from other...
Hi all,
i really need some advices and infos about the process of changing the Ebony GG with a new one, a Maxwell.
I've already talked with Bill and the next step is to send the money and...
I know that probably i could find the holder for less than 30$, but considering the shipping prices for europe (and the fact that almost all the offers comes from the US) i preferred to buy one new...
just bought a 20 sheet pack from a forum member; i've considered that still worth having a quickload holder, paying 30$ for it new.
many thanks
Bought yesterday; will try it tomorrow.
Any chanche to have listed also the Portra 160?
Many thx
Yes, but for how long we'll be able to freeze it...that's the point :)
In order to assure me film supplies for years, i should sell my house and invest in film&refrigerators...and probably won't...
Probably i'll go for a fuji QL holder; its price is very resonable and it seems that the offers for film are still somehow common.
I'm very pleased about it for the dust sealing and the...
I've sent a message to photobackpacker and recived an answer pretty late; i've sent a second message asking some infos about their cases (if the interior is padded, if there are any kind of systems...
