😱 sorry to hear that Ralph. I feel your pain. I was travelling in New Zealand. Left a new (for the trip) compact digital camera on roof of car while I was putting shopping in. Then drove off and realised 2hours later.
Thanks Phil. 😊
I find meters like this some kind of magic... How are they still so accurate?!
Thank you. 🙏
😂👍
That's lovely. I've never used a meter like that. One day...
First frame of a 35mm black and white film of a woman taking a mirror selfie.
First one out of the expired FP4+. Film looks good, so I'll go for it and start bulk loading some cartridges. Thanks @tiemen.eurosky.social for selfie suggestion! Here it is. 😊 I think the film has aged better than me in 28 years! 🤣

Loving everything about this - the film, the camera (power to the Bronnie) and the lens cap. 😍
Awesome!!
That is lovely! Are you putting them together yourself?
Black and white negative hangs to dry.
I ran a short roll of the expired FP4 bulk roll through my camera this morning. Negs look very healthy… 😊

Back lit catkins sparkling in the low winter sun. In the background is a block of flats with rows of windows and doors.
Catkins have me reaching for the antihistamine.

Arh that's too bad. I've had a one-off roll like that. But that's great that you got lots of keepers.
Beautiful - love those tones... Have you got a stock of it or one off?
Thanks Patrick. Surprising amount of light under that bridge wasn’t sure it would come out so well. 👍
Comparing two emulsions of FP4+. Top one expired in 1998. Bottom one recent still in date.

Comparing the 1998 expired FP4+ with a recent one. Newer one slightly darker maybe (but then it has been exposed to light for longer).

Not helping my desire for a Pentax 17. 👏
👏
No way - you're invited! All the cool 🎞️ kids are... 😎
Well that's what I thought too. (Until my kids pointed out that was 28 years ago... 😲😱
Nice one 🥳
Welcoming the baby. 👶🥰📷
Yesss 🙌 wouldn’t be a party without ya. 🥳
Yeah I’m with ya on that. Probably something I’ll try for fun but doubt I’d use regularly unless it’s a specific project.
Good idea. I’ll do that! 👍
A plastic tin of FP4+ 35mm film for bulk rolling. It expired in Feb 1998.
Spurred on by the #fp4party I’ve taken THIS out of cold storage. Had it in there for a good few years. No idea what condition 🤞. Expired 1998 (many of you weren’t even born ! 😲) Will dig out some 90s clothes to wear while using. 😎

Exactly and you can’t take it with you.
Cool - I'm looking forward to see what you create.
