Hi Pentaxians

yes, please look deep into your freezers and make some irrestible offers for
large amounts of quality but obsolete film  as FS ;-)

BTW what happened to Fuji Films, I see their Superia film disappearing in
most warehouses here and only Kodak left?

Are any of the Velvia, Elite Chrome or Portra still available?
If so I would be positively thrilled to lighten your load.

Interesting, around here it's Fuji everywhere. And if it isn't Fuji, it's 
rebranded Fuji (Life brand from Shoppers Drug Mart, Black's in-house film, 
etc). Consumer Kodak print film is only found in cheap independant corner 
stores. Most of the serious film shooters I know who aren't bargain shoppers 
haunting the Expired Bins have moved over to Fuji for colour work, given Fuji's 
strong commitment to film and Kodak's rather shaky situation. BW users seem to 
be headed to Ilford and Eastern European brands.

In Canada Kodak markets Gold 200 beside a product called Funtime 200,

Gold 200 is a nicer film, better colour, contrast and saturation, and

Your Color Plus may be the same as our Funtime.

very similar to the situation in india. fuji, still preferred by the
'insiders' (a very good photographer friend of mine who shoots only
film, and uses nikon f100, wouldn't use anything else and ilford for
bw), is difficult to get but is available provided you are willing to
search around; kodak is everywhere, gold and ultra; and konica (minolta)
[sony] is battling it out; the last time i developed and printed two
rolls, i got two rolls of KM crystal 200 free :)) and, they also sell
canons in their kiosks. the 350d is being discounted right now though
still steep compared to US prices

Free Film (From Kodak)

2006-12-08 Thread Mark Cassino
I forgot all about this until today - a few months ago my brother sent 
me a link to film give-away page on the Kodak Website. I filled out the 
questions, telling them I shoot 35mm and medium format. I goofed up 
though and where it asked to categorize my photography I intended to 
click on 'fine art' (hey - we all have our ambitions) but accidentally 
clicked on 'government / military'. They were right next to each other 
on the alphabetical listing (F-G).

I sorta hoped to get some Tri-X or Plus-X, but then I already have 
several rolls of both in the freezer. Instead today a tube arrived with 
two 35mm rolls of Porta 400 (one VC, once NC) and two 120 rolls of Porta 
160 (again - VC/NC)

Cool! I have no fast color 35mm film left and the ISO 160 Porta is 
exactly what I'd use for landscapes.

Plus there's a substantial coupon ($25) for orders of $125 or more. My 
color 120 film supply is dwindling (I'm down to just 5 220 rolls of NPS 
and 3 rolls of Konica Impressa 50) so I may just bite on this. Yeah yeah 
yeah - I got the K10D, but a well exposed 6x7 negative still rocks for 
some applications.

I checked and the promo ended - otherwise I'd post the link to it.

No, I am not seeing those colours in the neutral.  I am not talking
colour cast here, just that these colours tend to have slightly greater
punch.  It is well known that Kodak is warmer than fuji in general isnt
it?

  I use EBX interchangeably with Velvia, when I want 100 ASA 
 I use EBX,
  otherwise Velvia.  EBX has the same saturation, and very 
 good grain for
  a 100 speed film.  EBX leans slightly more on the magenta 
 side, whereas
  Vevia leans to the greens in comparison.
 
 If you are seeing those colours in the neutrals, the Velvia is being 
 underprocessed and the EBX is being overprocessed.  They're 
 both really 
 picky.

Every film is different.  Astia is warmer than Provia, E100S is much 
colder than E100SW, Astia is warmer than E100S.  There is no absolute

RE: Free film/Cheap film

You must have got a duff batch then.  There is very little difference
between this and E100VS normally.  The difference is so marginal that
EBX (extra colour) is actually a much better buy.  Besides, this version
dont need to be kept in a fridge.

I use EBX interchangeably with Velvia, when I want 100 ASA I use EBX,
otherwise Velvia.  EBX has the same saturation, and very good grain for
a 100 speed film.  EBX leans slightly more on the magenta side, whereas
Vevia leans to the greens in comparison.

   If this is the same consumer-variety extra color 
 Elitechrome that Kodak
 sells over here in the US, you might want to develop the 
 first roll before
 investing in 10 magazines :-)
   I tried some last summer and found it had a very 
 grainy, almost old
 autochrome look, whereas the professional variety of this film has
 practically no grain in comparison.
 
 hope that helps,

Yeah, but Rob, you can surely only read one copy of AP once?? Or maybe 
you keep a few caged birds??
