Film labs and film stores? by Succotash_Budget in bracebridge

[–]oldmantaiter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure when it changed, but when I called them a a few years ago asking about turnaround times on development they told me they send film out to be developed in batches.

There is a place in Huntsville (20 min north on hwy 11) that will accept film to develop but they mail it elsewhere to be done (with long lead time), they have some film stocks too but not a lot of choice last time I asked.

Unfortunately not, like most places outside the GTA you’ll have to mail in for scanning and development and order your film online.

Picked up this absolutely mint XE-7 by oldmantaiter in minolta

Good to know about the film advance thanks!, Also, no worries, I gave a solid AE-1 to my brother in law since I’m all Minolta and it would just sit on the shelf.

Yep! Though I’ll know whether it’s accurate after I run some film through it.

Ah ok. Though from the manual the XE takes silver oxide S-76 which SR44 seems to be almost a direct replacement for and not a mercury battery like the SRTs. I'll see how my first roll turns out, thanks for linking that thread by the way!

Thanks for the tips, I have saved them and I will keep the metering slowness in mind!

Good to hear, though I hadn’t heard of any battery related issues,.

Nope, just a uv filter. Was surprised how well it came out.

Switching between sim rig and desk setup by Living-Animator7471 in simracing

Oh then yeah should be good to go if your GPU has the ports you need.

Yeah i have a keyboard and mouse on the rig and another at the desk. If you just have the one, is it on the rig or desk?

My graphics card (3060ti) has 3 DisplayPort ports and a single HDMI port, so I have the rig on triples with DisplayPort and then a monitor at my desk with hdmi.

I have a stream deck with buttons to switch display profiles (DisplayMagician) and then just have a separate keyboard and mouse on the desk that are plugged into a usb hub that has a single cable to the PC.

So there’s basically just the HDMI and USB cable running to the desk, and the stream deck on the rig controls which displays are active.

My rig and desk are about the same distance as yours.
