Nice, are the light seals intact?

Re: Vintage film cameras
 

Nope! A nice gooey mess.

Thanks for the tip on the adhesive foam. Just got a few sheets and have made some seals for the Canonet.

Some people use a rotary cutter, bit like a tiny pizza wheel, but I just did it carefully with a very sharp blade. I only needed straight bits anyway and width wasn't critical.

I bought a rotary cutter as well. Made it so much quicker. Going to sort a home development kit out.

Just bought the development tank. It will do 35mm, 120, 126, and 127 film. Just need to sort the C41 kit.

Gave the AGFA Billy Clack a good cleaning. Managed to get rid of a lot of the gunge in the bellows. Just needs loading

I took two pictures yesterday. I might even finish a film soon.

Interesting video

I think I hit on why I like film. Digital is just too real. There is a lot of thought and effort in film photography. Someone said earlier that the put their camera in burst mode and bang, 30 odd shots of the same thing in a few seconds.

Just found that WEX Photographic in Norwich sell film and darkroom chemicals. Good excuse for a ride and a chance to pick up the gear I need to try black and white developing before trying colour C-41. Just wish I could take a course first. Might stop at Flixston on the way back.
