    Another camera shop closes... WestEndCameras

    Those of you in London may be saddened to hear that WestEnd Cameras at the "top" of Tottenham Court Rd is closing this week. Been there for 25 years. They've focused on film (did 120 dev!) in recent years selling darkroom chems and films, alongside used film cameras. But the rent just goes up...

    Price of Sony 18-135mm?

    I've asked elsewhere but does anyone have a clue why the price of this lens has yoyoed so much? It's currently way too expensive for me especially given what is used to cost! What controls this? http://www.camerapricebuster.co.uk/Sony/Sony-SLR-Lenses/Sony-18-135mm-f3.5-5.6-SAM-Lens Is there a...

    medium format transparencies from digital

    thanks for your reply Chappers. Emailed dropped! I'll think about trying them out. Or given how big the pics will be I may revert to simply point my Bronica at a screen image if the lenses I have will cope (cheaper anyway!). Dewi

    Photolive - any good.

    If anyone reads this after being today can they offer an opinion? Thinking of popping along tomorrow for the retail part mainly - may do a seminar if something grabs me and there's space. Is the list of retailers on the website all or some of what's there? Worth going for buying / browsing? Dewi

    medium format transparencies from digital

    A slight variation on something I ask yesterday in the film forum: Have a project in mind where I'd like to get some 6x4.5 transparencies made from existing digital files. I've found some places that do 35mm from digital. [In days gone by I used to spend hours in the dark making 35mm slides...

    B&W slides

    Does anyone know if there's a lab that will take B&W negs - specifically 120 - and process them as positive (ie as slides)? From a quick look there's no such thing as B&W positive film anymore (I recall from my youth you could get some but....) and whilst there's a nice recipe on the Ilford site...

    B&W printing

    Thought it good manners to report back! I've now got some B&W landscapes (Yosemite) printed from Photobox, Ilford and Theprintspace. To be fair for the price (I usually print when they've got an offer and wait for free P&P!) the Photobox ones aren't bad. I had a 16x10 pearl and the blacks are...
