The battery holder sometimes needs a little wiggle, I've found (or the batteries are in the wrong way round). I loved my little Auto 110 but it jammed when I took a photo requiring a longer exposure, which seems to be a common problem. I'll be trying to fix it when the weather gets nicer (and...

Lovely video! I've never bothered with half-frame cameras, but this one might tempt me...

Funnily enough, I looked at SilverPan's prices today, as I have two rolls in need of processing and they're here in Bristol. The prices were twice as expensive as FilmDev's though (£22 for a process + scan of 1 b/w roll, 1 C41), so I decided against it! For my needs, FilmDev is still the best!

All else fails, I can open a tanning salon...

Got a few bits and pieces for free, from a woman I'd bought an enlarger off previously. Including this ridiculous halogen lamp, that I have no idea what to do with... View: https://imgur.com/vC4xuW1

I really like these, Chris! They have a very painterly feel :)

Woo hoo! I've got an enlarger, trays, small easel and a couple of other bits. Need to get chemicals, a safelight and paper, then I *think* I'm ready to go with my mini darkroom (big cupboard) too. Looking forward to seeing your progress :)

Got mine just after Christmas, nice haul! Some film (not shot any of them before) and a Lomo split image camera.

Durdle Door would be nice, if a little cliched by now... I'm in Bristol!

yiiiiikes

Oh really? Back to the drawing board then haha :)

I was originally planning on getting a ball head tripod, but kept reading they were no good for LF... I use one at work with a DSLR and find them pretty easy to use. They might be lighter though. Decisions, decisions!

I have also been pondering this question for my Chroma - I had my eye on one of these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00K0P067W/?coliid=I3UE0MIF65YLQB&colid=VFQP0QXBLM9W&psc=0&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it Will it suffice, do you think? I currently have a cheapo Jessops tripod with a single adjustment on...

They contacted me first, to say they'd received a ripped envelope with my note inside, but no film :( I blame myself, I should have used a jiffy envelope, or something sturdy. I won't do it again!

It was probably a small parcel, but I threw away the receipt... it's probably not worth the effort tbh!
