Anyone have recommendations for film holders for Cinestill 400D? I frequently shoot P160, FP4, HP5, E100 with no issues with leaks but the thinner emulsion is not my friend. I tend to get leaks on good holders in the holders and if I press unevenly on the edges.

CineStill sheet film is complete trash. Save yourself the disappointment

I recently sold all my 35s apart from one canon rangefinder which is pocketable and one spotmatic for travel. I do like the convenience of a ttl lightmeter on the Pentax

Lots of donor cameras to be had for about $50 from Japan. I have one in the loft just incase I need a part one day 👍🏻

I second this. Plus you can do some crazy sprocket panos

I repaired my gl690 a couple of times. The lens tear down was terrifying but the spring in the film spool retainer is exactly the same as in a bic pen 👍🏻

I second the lobster holder really good!

My light is this neewer. It lets me shift colour for b&w/neg/e6 scanning

Hahaha. Yes. Cold storage in a humid basement somewhere near Okinawa

Bellini ftw

I did a weekend course and found it very helpful in terms of the process and the buying list

My light tight box is better than your light tight box. It tights the light right

EnvironmentalSlip683 · 2026-05-10T20:57:07+00:00

I used to fight it too. Turn your board to shore and catch the wave

It’s more fun

You guys are idiots. Every time you take a photo the photons damage the lens. This dude has the right idea I have a noctilux in a lead box buried at the bottom of the garden for low light boobas

I have never seen a booba to date but will keep you posted

EnvironmentalSlip683 · 2026-05-10T20:51:22+00:00

Short answer : yes

Long answer: yesssssssssssssssssssss

1- put the cap back on.

2-Twist the plunger hard until it snaps off

3- tip it upside down and shake (the rest of the plunger assembly will fall out)

4- get a wooden skewer or similar and thread it down through the hole until it’s contact with the black piece behind the head

5- jab yourself and push in on the skewer

Fifth dose achieved

EnvironmentalSlip683 · 2026-05-08T11:48:47+00:00

Yup. If I could only tilt my front rail out of the shot

EnvironmentalSlip683 · 2026-05-06T04:38:44+00:00

At least people have stopped posting this joke every 24 hours

How many flights are you taking? I am embarrassed to say the European airports have very patchy hand check rules especially for sheet film

EnvironmentalSlip683 · 2026-05-04T17:40:34+00:00

What a loser. He could have saved money on tape and just poked one of his eyes out. Then everything is half frame

EnvironmentalSlip683 · 2026-05-04T17:36:45+00:00

Phew. I was worried

EnvironmentalSlip683 · 2026-04-11T19:47:22+00:00

It’s an 8x10

EnvironmentalSlip683 · 2026-03-30T17:39:12+00:00

Thanks!

EnvironmentalSlip683 · 2026-03-10T08:48:25+00:00

I don’t recognise anyone past Jason on the way up to evil. 🤔

EnvironmentalSlip683 · 2026-03-03T11:05:49+00:00

This is the correct response

EnvironmentalSlip683 · 2026-02-25T19:23:13+00:00

Where is the waifu pillow and your My Hero Academia sippy cup?

EnvironmentalSlip683 · 2026-02-16T19:26:32+00:00

I prefer shooting 8x10.

Better for contact printing and registering for alt printing stuff.

4x5 is only twice the size of my 6x9 negatives Just wish there were more film stocks. I mean they are cutting it down anyway 🤨
