    Seems to me we’re all forgetting this Choose Film site, taking it for granted. On the other hand, I’m aware of some active meetup.com groups who, erm, meet up, to take photos and have a drink or meal or […]

    Another good buy is the Canoscan 8800F. I just recently purchased it so I am experiment with it to get the best results. So far so good.

    I had some outdated Kodak GPX 160 given to me — I found it needed to be rated at 50 ASA to flash – I used my 1960′s Asahi PENTAX SV with a 135mm f4 Carl Zeiss Jena lens I got for £1–00 in my Camera Club auction — Lighting was two 1980′s Bowens Monolites and I got f16 at the synch speed of 1/50th…[Read more]

    Been out shooting Portra 800 (rated at 1600) in some challenging low light conditions last weekend and wow what a lovely film with tremendous exposure latitude and beautiful colours. Just so expensive, mind no worse than Superia 1600 these days which Portra beats the pants off (for me anyway). Was using my Contax G2 with a Planar 35mm f2. Can’t…[Read more]

    Have been GIVEN a 1970′s Asahi Pentax KX body and a Hanimex 75-300m f5.6 auto-Zoom lens by a Camera Club member — the aperture setting ring was not working but with a minute amount of Three-in-One oil it works again and I have been out taking some experimental shots with 1998 dated Fuji Super G 400 and outdated Kodak Tri-X I processed in Kodak…[Read more]

    I have been trying out Agfaphoto Vista Plus 400 as standard fodder for my Contax G2 System in comparison to Fujifilm Superia X-tra 400 and have concluded that:

    a) Vista Plus 400 is most likely out of the Fujifilm stable just rebadged as Agfaphoto, though it is possibly not completely identical to Superia X-tra 400 being maybe a bit less contrasty…[Read more]

    Interesting idea, I’ve never heard of a pop-up darkroom, I’m gonna check this one out. I would think however that to make sizable enlargement you would need a considerable size tent. I could do little more […]

    Hi all,

    I was wondering on here is using a popup darkroom tent and can recommend a brand? I’m looking at doing enlargements at home and so thought this would be a sensible idea as I can’t make any room in the […]

    Been out and about making photographs of the Autumn colour which is particularly good this year. Used my Zeiss Ikon with my Distagon 18mm, Biogon 35mm and Sonnar 85mm lenses. Film of choice? Fuji Superia X-tra 400. Just love this time of year.

    Got a CPE2 and a Tetenal kit, now all I need to do is find the time to shoot some stuff. @Peter that shot is beautifully deatailed; I wouldn’t have thought it possible of such old stock.
