Nothing new to see here! Sometimes I like to just load up a roll of film, take the camera with me, wherever I’m going, and make a few photo’s here and there of what I like and catches my eye. This time I took with me my Spotmatic – I have two, the SP andContinue reading “A Photowalk”

Ilford FP4+ Movie Film -end credits
Back in Spring of ’21 I purchased a 410ft can of out-of-date Ilford FP4+ movie film. As far as I can tell it’s exactly the same as regular FP4, although, as it’s intended to rattle through a movie camera at 18 inches a second – give or take, it does have subtly different (slightly rounded)Continue reading “Ilford FP4+ Movie Film -end credits”
Seeing Red!
Harman are at it again! Another film, they are calling their “first true creative film”. As you can see it’s Redscale. My understanding is that this is simply shooting through the “back” (non-emulsion) side of the film, thus hitting the red layer first, and almost blocking the blue and green layers. Like Phoenix, this isContinue reading “Seeing Red!”

Pan-F at Dawlish
The day I had a walk around Dawlish Warren turned out to be a bright sunny day, even though it was mid-October. Bright enough that I decided I could use up my last roll of Pan-F from my film stash. There is talk with this film that the latent image degrades quite quickly once exposed,Continue reading “Pan-F at Dawlish”
Short Photo Walk
When I have a little spare time I try to get out and have a short walk. If it is somewhere different then so much the better, even if its not, I take the camera with me. These are a few snaps made on such an outing – no theme, just what caught my eye!Continue reading “Short Photo Walk”
When colour is too old
I had an old roll of Colorplus 200, expired in 2002. I’ve used this sort of age film before, and always allow an extra stop for age. Many people suggest that 1 stop per decade is a good idea. My experience is that while 1 stop is good, going to 2 or more just addsContinue reading “When colour is too old”
More Colour from Dawlish
For those of you who have not read my previous posts relating to my recent Devon trip. I took my Canon EOS30, with the 40mm STM lens attached for a walk around Dawlish Warren, down in sunny Devon (UK). I had the film (Fuji C200) lab developed but scanned the negs on my Epson V600Continue reading “More Colour from Dawlish”
Stand: Rodinal
I was gifted a roll of Fomapan 100. No box, so no idea what the expiry date was or indeed even if it was a viable film, for all I knew someone may have exposed it all and wound it back into the cassette! I quite often go to Poole for a walk, so decidedContinue reading “Stand: Rodinal”
Agfa APX in Poole
I believe that the “new” Agfa APX100 is the same as Kentmere 100. Question: Have you ever come across a supplier that offers both? Not that it matters any, it’s a couple of pounds cheaper than FP4, so if I ever get to the point where I need to reduce my film costs, I’ll beContinue reading “Agfa APX in Poole”
