Well.. not at all of them.

Thanks Adam. That is a great price for the Tri-X.

My guess: They use a random number generator.

S. Grand Parkway just called, one of the 120 rolls came back with only the film strips and no prints. Price: $4.88 for E-6. I'll go pick it up when I decide I need to stop working on this tech comm presentation.

$4.88 is what I pay for 120 E6

$0.84 is what I pay for 120 C41

last time i went to wally world, i even managed not to buy anything else!

[Anthony Martinez]

I caved and bought two 3-ring binders. One to put my 120 negs in, one for the 35mm stuff.

[adam.watts]

went to WM last night to drop off a roll of 120. remember up above i mentioned i had screwed up a roll of 120 asa 400 by shooting it at asa 100 and then sent it off to fuji with instructions to pull process it to 100? well, the fuji lab sent back my roll (unprocessed) with a nice little note that said they don't offer push/pull processing. i'm not surprised, although it was worth a shot. another little note to add to my WM film file.

i'd be happy they didn't just say, "screw it and run it through the mill."

[Anthony Martinez]

Good to know.

I'm living in the wrong part of Texas.... Nothing except consumer grade Fuji 35mm film in my local WM's.

I am almost ready to get a roll of old Kodak processed and on advice, I'm going to try my local CVS stores, and tonight with all the storms out there, might just see me completing that roll.

Brian,
Maybe there is a misunderstanding. We don't buy the medium format film at Walmart. Heck, since I cleaned out my local store of Kodak film a few years ago (they switched from Kodak to Fuji-GRRRRRRRRRRRRR) I don't buy any film from Walmart.
We just drop 120 film (color neg. & color slide) and 35mm slide film in processing envelopes (the way it was done in pre-1 hour days) and the folks from Fuji collect the film, process & return to Walmart. There are a few Walmarts left that have 1 hour labs running for 35mm color neg., C-41 process, film.
Long story. Sorry for the ramble.

I know what you mean about buying film and Fuji, as its not my preference either. Same situation everywhere (Wallmart/CVS) is how it seems to me. Have to either buy what I want online or go to a 'proper' camera store (so read that last option as "more expensive")... Been looking at getting back into 120 shooting for a while and have been scoping out places to get processing done (main reason for my last post about it).

I remember that 45 years ago, my father used to mess about with the Russian copies of German pre-war MF cameras. As I was only 10 years old at the time, I don't recall if he ever got any great results, but the Lomography crew would have been in heaven!

Anthony, the tubes work perfectly. 6x7 macro Rocks.

Glad they're being used. I've put the Gossen to good use, though I've also purchased a flash meter for my flash tendencies - it lives with my strobes, and the Gossen plays with my film cameras.

Glad that everything is working.
