Re: Vintage film cameras
Thanks for the tip on the adhesive foam. Just got a few sheets and have made some seals for the Canonet.

Re: Vintage film cameras
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.

Re: Vintage film cameras
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.

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

Re: Vintage film cameras
Interesting video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjtphPVchJI 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.

Re: Vintage film cameras
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.
