I have done this on a number of occasions with complete success. I normally go one frame on from the last used just to be on the safe side. Lens cap plus bury the lens in a cushion or similar. The ...

Before Christmas I was handed a carrier bag containing 4 cameras that had been ignored by thieves in a local break-in. The best of the owner's collection (her late husband's pride and joy) had all ...

I was recently gifted a bag of cameras which included a Samsung VEGA 140. It had a roll of film in it and hadn't been used for many years. Battery was dead but not corroded (CR123) Replaced, ...

I thought this a little amusing - film is set in China in the 1930s. Not only is the extra using an modernish film SLR, he's even managing to shoot lens free!!! Awesome.

Thank you - that is most kind.

Last spell of sunshine for while.

One of those moments that passes in a flash....

I have recently been gifted a Canon T90 + Vivitar 28-200 Macro zoom. It come with a stuck shutter / EEE error with HELP display which I may or may not be able to cure.... .....plus 3 rolls of Kodak ...

I do wonder if you have been using the correct process for NAD items. I have had a few, and all you have to do is click the correct button, state your case - provide photos if required, and wait. E ...

I must admit I found the Vision 3 a real pleasure to scan. It just sits there dead flat. In the end I just used a generic profile as each shot needed slightly different handling afterwards. I just ...

Nice shots - I've recently been having the same discussion with myself. Kodak Vision 3 is really nice. I've only had one film back so far from my Kodak Retina Ib and very pleased with the results. ...

....and yet it remains a lovely picture nevertheless and demonstrates IMVHO why film is so good.
