Thread Tools. Aug 2, 1. Messages: I'm after a few bits of advice from the experienced members on here. I have heard that it may not be a good idea to buy film online as it may have been stored in hot containers and X-Rayed several times during it's journey, thus impacting its quality.
Question 2: What speeds should I be buying for general photography? I found that the Kodak Ektar produced pictures that were a little dark indoors with flash , but the ones on a sunny day were very good. Aug 2, 2. Messages: 2, Ektar being a colour print film is not now unobtainable in UK or for that matter anywhere else as far as I know.
Both the Kodak and Fuji are rated at iso. About question 2, this sounds as if you are using an 'on camera' flash which is not powerful enough so try opening up the aperture a little and that should improve matters.
Black and white bulk film is easily obtainable from the likes of AG Photographic, Morco, Firstcall photographic. Again Morco tends to be cheaper. Last edited: Aug 3, Aug 2, 3.
Aug 2, 4. You do not need 36 exposures to test either so you can roll short cassettes - typically, I will roll a ten exposure cassette to test a camera. Aug 2, 5. Messages: 35, I'm guessing that when you say "bulk" film you mean film in quantity, not the foot rolls of film that people cut and spool into re-usable cassettes. As BMbikerider posted, colour film of the sort you used isn't marketed in bulk rolls any more.
Many, many people now buy film over the internet, and have it shipped. I wouldn't be any more concerned about buying it that way from a regular film supplier than I would about buying it from a retailer, because they get it shipped to them too. If I understand things correctly, between the UK, the Channel Islands and nearby countries in the EU you have a number of sources available to you.
Aug 2, 6. Aug 2, 7. Messages: 26, Aug 2, 8. Aug 2, 9. Messages: 1, I recommend getting a bulk film loader and using black and white film. You don't need color to test cameras. Even in regular shooting, I rarely load more than 20 shots per roll. It is worth it to me just to be able to choose my roll size. Aug 2, Mail-in orders are accepted.
