Bulk rolling film can still be a good option - Rollei Retro 400s which is the same as Super Pan 400 and possibly Catlabs 320 all derived from Aviphot 400s with its extended red sensitivity £66 delivered so £3.72 a roll ….. Imaging warehouse (Nova Darkroom)

Half Frame Obsession #2
I’m reading a book called “Still, a mindful practice for photographers” by Paul Sanders and it is to be recommended. Paul speaks about making photographs (he is careful with the language around pho…

That’s true but by that point I don’t need to look at the contact sheet as it’s already in the enlarger - come on you know it has to be red 😉😂

And red too …. Has to be red

Well that’s a lovely adjective many thanks dear friend. I love coming in to London - looking forward to our meet up in a couple of weeks

As well as using the Koroll 24 in its proper role as a half frame camera you can remove the mask and get weird results like these ….. On balance I prefer the half frame option

I spent £160 on darkroom consumables just yesterday so I stay focused on that - I have a fair few cameras though dont feel too sorry for me 😆 - we can compare kit at oit next London meet

Nope but here’s the thing I’m not really into cameras - I love using them but here we see three distinct cameras each with different uses. I won’t buy cameras of the same format if they don’t offer anything different or interesting, it’s why I only have one 35mm SLR system.

I purchased my LCA from Russia years back and it has been modified for multiple exposures; not that I use that feature much. I acquired the LCA120 a couple of years back and now the Holy Trinity is complete with the exciting multi talented LCWide…I sold things… #believeinfilm #filmphotography

Half Frame Obsession -#1
Half Frame photography and my love of the Pentax 17 and making darkroom prints from the stories they tell.

Andrew Bartram 🎞️ ✝️📷 @warboyssnapper.bsky.social · 01/10/2026
The Pentax 17 is possibly the only camera you’ll ever need - at our Son’s wedding last year I used it for some casual snaps as we waited around - flash for a bit of fill in on a dull morning - and in the evening for some slow shutter flash fun … #believeinfilm #filmphotography

Our local chemist offers private Covid jabs so I guess it’s quite common. I’ll get my flu jab in the next week

I purchased it about 10 years ago and had been serviced by UK f2 man Sover Wong ! I think that’s his name . My only 35mm SLR

I ended up being offered work by the company I’d left but for 5 days a month then after 18 months decided I’d had enough and became a part time Tesco delivery driver - pension kicked in at 60 this year. So it depends on circumstances…..

One of the many versions of the Armagosa Motel and Opera House I’ve made - this one a split toned fb version. Sort of made famous for a brief moment as it appears in Lost Highway a brilliant David Lynch film. @ilfordphoto.com #FP4 and Fuji GW690II

In the end I walked away and hoped for the best …… was still 5 years away before I could happily begin private pension drawdown but it all worked out
