I’ve never used an Ortho film before, so I had to buy one! It’s languished in my film cupboard for ages, so this was the time to try it. I planned a trip to Stourhead Gardens, a National Trust property, not too far away. Loaded up the film in the Canon EOS 30, removed myContinue reading “Ilford Ortho”

Bridport and Symondsbury on Agfa APX 100
I’m off work for a few days, so I’ve decided to actually use up some of the many different film stocks I’ve brought in the last few months/years to try, and to use as many of my film cameras at least once each, as I can!

As you can see from the tin it is indeed 23 years past it’sContinue reading “Ilford FP4 Plus – a lot of it!”
Ferrania P30 Alpha
I think all of us who use film regularly are delighted when not only does a new (old) film hit the marketplace but an old/new company returns with it. To a degree I think that we photographers are a friendly lot, who like to support each other and in that vein I ordered 3 rollsContinue reading “Ferrania P30 Alpha”
