Analog film photography and cameras

Both of those are great !

Thanks!

@chrisbmx116 ..happy to see image upload is working again. Keep 'em coming! Well nice images...

Yeah I'd also get a GR1 though prices have risen considerably, and I'm scared after hearing a lot of "sudden death" stories (and there's basically no places that do still repair them, right?)...

Ha. Cheers. It works on mobile. I have 2 gr1s. Both have been water damaged and gave bust lcds but they keep on keeping on.

[Edit - Sold to @BigH]

A friend gave me these rolls of Fuji Pro 400H - bought them in Thailand last summer, assuming it's 35mm film (obviously it's 120).
As you can see they expired in December 2014, and they did travel on a plane from Thailand to Germany.
Three of the rolls are still sealed in the wrapper, one has been opened, not exposed though.

Since I don't do medium format at the moment I thought I'd give them away.
I'd ask £10 via paypal, which would cover shipping to the UK, plus one beer for me

PM if interested...

Does anyone know what a decent price for a used Mamiya 7II would be? I'm heading to Japan for a few weeks next month and I was thinking of picking one up.

Friend of mine just bought one in Japan, mint with 65mm lens, for £1175

This car was shithot.

Really like the framing on this. Would look much cinema with a 2.39:1 aspect ratio...

I was running round this car like a fat kid in a sweet shop, the lighting of it was perfect. Wish I hadn't cut the edge off the shadow though...
Thanks though BRO. SO composition.

Dat highlight detail...

Ohhhh yeah!

Lovely.

Apologies if I missed it, but do you have a flickr? Great photos

Cheers buddy, technically I do but I don't use it. I have a few very old pics up, maybe I should upload some more... just tried to login actually, cant remember my details, oh well!

Thanks for trying at least. Passwords, I don't blame you.

I have this old Agfa Isolette II folder which takes excellent photos sometimes, and other times has shots completely ruined by either light leaks or something torn in the workings.. maybe the curtain if it has one? I'd love a proper working version :/

It's probably because of holes in the bellows (I've always found the effect varies from shot to shot), take it in a dark room and shine a light through the back. You can just cover over any holes with gaffer tape/electrical tape.

The shutter is metal blades and imo that doesn't look like a result of them being damaged or sticking.

There were a lot of holes in the corners of the bellows, which I've sealed. It's a strange sillouette - obviously fabric, a vertical edge on the right side of the frame, and a similar horizontal edge (out of focus, about 5% up from the bottom) at 90 degrees. Too precise for a tear or a hole.

Old folders are so cheap I may as well just try my luck with another one from ebay. Not having focus indication is the only drag, so it's a sunny day camera only.

Anyone imported a camera from japan before and how much have you been charged for customs? its a £110 camera + £30postage which is a good price for it but im not looking to pay £50 on customs

Sorry if it's already been discussed, I'm looking for somewhere decent but cheapish to get film developed and scanned in North London. Any suggestions?

Speak to the buyer, I convinced a Japanese seller to send listed as a much lower value. Or a friend did. Or something. You know?

So dope!

Holy sheeeeeeit.

Yashica t4, Cheapo film:

And some MF stuff going up over the next few days.

Hmm... Will try contact again with the seller, this time with a general offer of around £120 posted. Back at uni next week so if he doesn't respond by the weekend might just have to pay the full price :-
