$120 for ONE roll of black and white film??? I am certainly hoping that's not the case, it should be easier to order it online and have it shipped in I would assume.

As to developing at home there are a lot of great tutorials online, I thought this one was pretty spot on at making it easy - http://chromogenic.net​/develop but there are many resources, just do a quick google search.

The great thing is that you almost can't mess it up really, so experiment! Try different methods, times, temperatures, you'll get a different look. Then when you find "your" look be sure to write down your process so it's repeatable.

JCP has several articles on home developing.

Thanks a lot, folks! I'll read some when I get back from work. Seems like it's not that monster I thought it would be. Looking forward to trying it out.

And yes, it's 120$ for a single roll.

I just priced it out: it's $329.11 WITH SHIPPING to Brazil for 50 rolls of Kodak Tri-X from B&H. That's $6.58 per roll.

Just saying.

I'd say that's the price without taxes, no? Last time I tried importing something from B&H it ended up costing twice the price just on importing duties. I'm sure they'd find a way to charge me something...

As I said, it's hard being a photographer around here.

Ok, so if it costs 2x the price, that's still 1/10 the price of what you're paying now...

Here's a few more from the mju-II and Ultramax 400.

the Mamiya Holy Trinity is finally complete.

(left one was sold locally)

How have you been liking the Mamiya, j-dogg? Do you carry it around or shoot with a tripod?

Mamiya RZ67 ProII and Portra 160, hmm, forgot what lens...
I see this is gonna be difficult, I will have to take notes!
I also see that I missed the focus, sigh...
Available window light.
Lots of noise too.
Shrug, it's a start, it's all new to me.

You didn't just miss focus; I would say that nothing is particularly "in" focus here. Any issues with the lens? Fog? Haze? Fungus?

it almost looks like you had one of those soft focus filters on it.

I do have the Mamiya 180/4 SF lens, new in box with the discs.
Though, I don't remember using it...
Film is hard for remembering equipment used, date/time, conditions, etc..

2008 - 35mm Walmart developed, probably Fuji 400.
Canon EOS 3, forget the lens, probably nifty 50II
Just got a Kodak-Pakon F135 scanner, rescanned.
This thing is great!
Liberal PP, big crop, slight missed focus, blah, blah, blah...

A few from a recent hill climb event taken with a Canon AE-1 Program and Canon 50mm f1.8:

Both, depends on the situation

I have a huge strap to carry it if need be. All of its film and both lenses and backs fit in a small gun case I retrofitted with some foam to hold an RB system.
