you're making me spend more money. i'm down to like 10 rolls and i have a massive rd trip coming up. lesson learned, always keep a healthy stash.

i guess i'll get some fuji acros and 400. suggestions?

i just can't bring myself to buy any foma unless it is wrapped in arista.

Freestyle has house brand Fuji Acros & Neopan 400. Maybe only in 35mm. Not too sure.

Live on the edge. Burn up a bunch of Efke 25. 120 Ilford PanF+ soaked, not agitated, in Rodinal 1:100 for an hour is to die for!

Ask Westely Clavey real nice if he has any 120 Arista that you can borrow and repay when Freestyle restocks.

i'll check out the efke 25, i'll pick up a couple of rolls. same with the ilford.

i guess i will bust into the rodinol. i like the diafine b/c it's simple.

i'm just trying to nail down my process so i can get some nice prints...

What's hard about pouring in the Rodinal & watching football for an hour?

It's not me - I'm a Neopan 100 abuser; If only I could get the Arista C-41 Developer alone.

I have some Arista EDU Ultra 100 in 120, but probably less than 10 rolls... I need to order some and keep putting it off. The last time I ordered I only got Tmax... I thought I'd try some Tmax 100, so I bought a pro pack of that instead of ordering more Arista - - but I haven't had the chance to shoot it yet. Conor, I could lend you what I have if it will help you out... and I say, stick with the Diafine... Arista 100 looks Great! in Diafine...

i should be fine. i think i will make an order and have it sent to utah. i definitely need some more velvia for escalante, ut. i appreciate the offer though. freestyle has just been out for awhile. when they do get it in. we should split a gigantic order and save a little $$$.

That's a great idea... just let me know when you are ready to order and we'll split it.

If it's color, I have a roll of Ektar and Fuji 400H I can spare.

But this time around ordered the Fuji stuff (next cheapest) for BW, folks say it's as good (or close) to Tri-X since the EDU is out of stock. (I type this hearing "someone" say Fuji is not Tri-X it not TMax is not Pan-F is not a Fed is not a Zorki is not a Leica is not a Konica is not a piece of silver halide and glass.) And for safe measure, ordered some Tri-X too.

They work well but you have to be careful with moisture. We have one for all the 400+ film.

Zeb, it's 120 size and ASA125 (DIN22) film that expired in 1970 - should be ok, but it may show it's age.
