When I stopped to add it up, I was actually surprised at the volume - I thought I'd done SFA film stuff since I got my first DSLR 18 months ago, but in just 2008 my usage surprised me. All 35mm, 36 exposu B&W films (HP5, FP4, TMZ): 5 rolls C41 films (Mostly Reala): 6 rolls E6 films (Velvia / Sensia): 4 rolls (still not processed). Plus 1 roll of HP5 and 1 roll of Sensia still in cameras. This is a fraction of what I'd shoot before I got my DSLR though - previously I'd shoot 1-2 rolls/week, so in a year it would be somewhere around 70-80 films, not 15. |

How many rolls of film did you shoot in 2008?
So far:
35mm: 8 rolls of Fuji 160S 2 rolls of Agfa Vista 200 2 rolls of Delta 100 2 rolls (60 shots) of Fuji Eterna 500 1 roll of Kodak Supra 400 1 roll of TX400 1/3rd of a roll of Ektar 100 (new) 120 (6x4.5): 4 rolls of Velvia 100 2 rolls of Delta 100 70mm (6x4.5): 11' of Agfa Aviphot Pan 400 The 1/3rd of a roll of Ektar 100 was last Sunday. I was trying out the film when a rollerblader brushed me and I bounced my F100 and 70-300mm ED off of a concrete sidewalk from a height of 5 feet or so. The F100 is off for repair, but chances are at least even it'll become a parts camera. The lens is a write-off. Given that I was also packing a 17-35mm f/2.8 and a 105mm f/2.8 VR that day, it could have been a lot worse. -- Mike Benveniste -- (Clarification Required) Cogito error zoom -- I think I dropped my lens. |

It's also a movie film, which means it requires ECN II processing. I only know of a couple of labs which still offer that to still photographers. May I ask what you think of it? Any samples available? Here's a writeup I did on it a while back. Did you want sample shots or samples of the film itself? http://webwhat.home.comcast.net/~webwhat/Eterna.htm It's an interesting film, but in the situations I used it for a modern dSLR is usually a better choice. But I like playing with retrotech now and then. A few of those shots were lit with M2 flashbulbs. -- Mike Benveniste -- (Clarification Required) Cogito error zoom -- I think I dropped my lens. |

(O: I would have been interested in a sample image or two if it had something interesting to offer, but realistically, I'm not likely to go digging it up to try. I think the last time I used t-film was about ten years ago in my old tlr... |

Here is hoping at least the film didn't get lost: that's the new Ektar, isn't it? |

I have a rider on my homeowner's, but I decided not to put in a claim. The $400 or so isn't worth risking a black mark on the homeowner's policy. I've learned my lesson, though, and will be switching to a "real" Personal Inland Marine Policy instead of a rider. The film was the new Ektar, and I think I had 11 shots in the can. I was able to rewind the roll, so I'll find out today or tomorrow what I've got. I bought two rolls, so my FA may come out to play pretty soon. My shooting tally should also include 2 rolls of Fuji Nexia 100. I use a Pronea S as a "car camera." -- Mike Benveniste -- (Clarification Required) Cogito eggo sum -- I'm thinking toaster waffles for breakfast. |
