Thanks, but you can find them all day long on eBay for not a lot more than that. I could have a lot MORE fun with it if I could locate B&W film, since i'm such a cheapskate when it comes to paying for processing these days. This little camera is opening up a new door for me. ANY fool can shoot a film when it is easily available, but it takes a really SPECIAL KIND OF FOOL to get into it years after the film has stopped being manufactured and distributed. : ) I've just learned that there is a community of such fools. They respool 16mm film, and once you get the hang of it you can apparently do one in 3-4 minutes. You can get lots of different films in 16mm, including infrared, TMAX 3200, and more. Those interested in reloading 110 may want to bookmark this page: http://www.subclub.org/darkroom/roll110.htm I could do all kinds of wacky stuff with this, like make a 20x24 print from a 110 negative. It would probably look really abstract up close, but you might be able to resolve it into an image if you could get a football field or two away from it. : ) -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
