I finally got round to developing the roll of Kentmere 100 in 120 that I shot at the Norwich meetup I went to recently. Rolleiflex 2.8e Kentmere ISO 100 (120) Godox AD200 strobe into a Godox lantern softbox (I believe) Ilford ID-11 #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Where would people recommend for getting say 4 cut rolls of film scanned at a decent resolution, at a decent price and a decent timeframe? UK recommendations #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Picked up a Polaroid SX70 Sonar and accessories from a friend today. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Blimey, SX70 film is rather tricky to get hold of! The B&W version doesn't seem to be in stock anywhere :( I hope they're not going to discontinue it! #BelieveInFilm #InstantFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Happy worldwide photography day. A way to observe. A way to create. A way to escape. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice no

I attended a film photography meetup in Norwich with the Shoot Film Norwich group today. Lots of chats and some photos made. @peterlangman.bsky.social brought a flash and softbox along, which was cool to use with my Rolleiflex #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

That's the stoma supplies refreshed for the next couple of months or so. Bags, elastic tape strips, dry wipes, wet wipes, adhesive remover, disposal bags and some hand sanitiser. #BowelCancer #Stoma #Ostomy

Do Boots know something we don't? #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Looking to send some small prints that I've made to people in the post. Mostly 5x7 prints. What are people using to protect prints when sending them? #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Phone 'scans' of a few images from the West Suffolk Classics 2025 event yesterday. Kentmere 100 in my Rolleiflex 2.8e. A couple using Rolleinar close-up attachments. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

I thought I'd broken my Rolleiflex after just a couple of rolls though it. Turns out that if you select a slow shutter speed (like 1/30th) whilst having say f/22 selected and then move to wider aperture, the shutter speed won't let you go any faster than 1/30th until you go to f/22 again. Capish?

Well, I guess it is mirrorless in a way... Poor attention to detail saying it's got a 35mm lens, when it clearly states 25mm on it. Do better, Argos 🙄😂 #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Ahhhh, that's better! I got to make a contact sheet of the roll from last weekend's photowalk organised by Martin of @photowalkme.bsky.social and a 3 shots from the day before. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Rolleiflex is definitely working nicely! I developed a roll of Kodak Tri-x 120 from yesterday, did quick inversions in Snapseed and I'm liking what I see, including some images with Rolleinar close-up attachments. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

I messed up with timings today and missed the photowalk I was supposed to be going to in London today, but I managed to go on another one after seeing a friend's Instagram story. Thoroughly enjoyable afternoon with like-minded film photography geeks :) #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

She's back and she's raring to go! Stopped off and took some photos at this lovely little church on my way back home from picking her up from repair. #Rolleiflex #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Looking forward to getting my Rolleiflex back from the Rolleiflex wizard. It developed a fault a while back and I put it to one side and kept putting it off. Dropped it to him less than a week ago and it's fixed 😍 #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

A productive day in the darkroom developing and making contact prints of 4x5 film from a couple of 1940s events. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Bumped into this guy dressed up as a 1940s press photographer at the "Bottisham at war" event today. He had a 1930s old standard Rolleiflex, a Contax iiia and a Kodak folder. Had to take a couple of photos of him on 4x5. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

I'm call this piece "Laundry on a fecking muggy day" 😂 Homemade 5x7 pinhole coffee can camera Kentmere VC Select glossy darkroom paper. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Not a totally terrible result for my first try with my coffee can pinhole. Seeing that I don't really know what the size of the hole is and I also don't have a proper way of developing 5x7 paper (dev'd in a 1L Paterson tank. #BelieveInFilm

Hacked together a 5x7in pinhole camera from an illy coffee can (it's the perfect size!) and a square of Vimto soft drinks can. Sprayed (badly) with some black spray paint I had laying about. It ain't pretty, but hopefully it'll work. I didn't measure the hole, just made it as small as I could.

This should be OK to shoot still, right? It only expired 34 years ago 😂 #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Does anyone have any of the bags that darkroom paper comes in spare that they don't want? I want to give a friend some cyanotype paper for their kids. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice.

My first cyanotype print for quite a while. Shot at a recent 1940s event on my 1940s Graflex Speed Graphic 4x5. Interestingly, I mixed the separate component parts (A & B) of the chems about 3 years ago. Good to see they're still very much usable! #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Who's going to Photographica on Sunday? #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

I developed my first roll from the Conway camera today. T-Max 100 from Wendy Chapman. Came out rather well! Just have to remember to hold the camera really still! #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Really enjoying the combination of Leica M2 and Kodak XX/5222 (from This Is How I Roll) at the moment. Helps that it dries really flat, making contact sheets a breeze! #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

A friend of mine picked this up for me at a car boot sale recently. Looks to be working OK. I've stuck a roll of TMAX 100 in it and will try it out soon. Strangely I see the filter is green, rather than yellow. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Was this before or after the Red Bull, @g4bao.bsky.social?

And so the seemingly eternal question comes around again... Which camera(/s) do I take out with me this weekend? Another car show (maybe 2) is on the cards #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Today marks my first "stomaversary". It was on this date a year ago that I had my surgery. I went down to theatre around 10AM and it was a 5.5hr operation. After that came the long road to recovery. Tonight I'm celebrating with a pint of cider and Mac n cheese with friends.

Out with my Leica M2 for the first time in ages at Transport Fest @ Museum of Power, Maldon. @ilfordphoto.com FP4 inside. Got my Werra and Franka Solida in the camera bag too 😂 #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Something just feels a bit wrong attaching a modern flash to a 1950s folding medium format camera 😂 Works though! Plus the Franka Solida iii has a 1/500th flash sync speed, apparently! #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

I had a CT scan on the 2nd of April. I received this letter today. 😁 #bowelcancer

A couple of prints from a session in the community darkroom today. Denge sound mirror from 2022 and old man on Islay doorstep from 2019. Hasselblad 503cxi/500cm, HP5/FP4. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

I sometimes wonder if Very British Problems on Facebook is run by Sandeep @givemeabiscuit.bsky.social. Especially when I see posts like this! 😂

Photo taken, dev'd, printed and delivered back to the guy pictured in under 2hrs 😁 On my way to the darkroom I saw Adrian doing some (legal) artwork on these big wooden fences. Werra 1 viewfinder camera Kodak 5222 (Double X) @ilfordphoto.com MGRC Pearl 5x7 paper #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

OK, hive mind. Anyone know what this re-rolled film might be? It has the word Vista on the cannister, but certainly isn't Agfa Vista 😂 A friend gave it to me in a swap, but she wasn't sure what it was either as she was given it too. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

I had an interesting thought just now after seeing an Instagram reel about the Minolta 110 Zoom SLR Mark II. Has anyone made darkroom prints from any 110 film, or is it all just scanned? #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice #110Film

Photos around my hometown (Clare, Suffolk). Ilford HP5 Plus, Pentax MX. 50mm 1.7 lens. @ilfordphoto.com MGRC Pearl paper. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice #DarkroomPrint #PrintParteh

Who's going to the Photography & Video Show down in London next weekend (on between 8th and 11th of March)? #BelieveInFilm #ShootfilmBeNice

The old station waiting room, now a visitor centre with model railway in Clare country park (Clare, Suffolk). Ilford HP5 in a Zorki 1 range finder (with a little hole in the shutter curtain). Printed on Ilford MGRC Pearl 5x7 at Darkroom37 in Colchester. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Took my first new member through their community darkroom induction today. Turned into more of a workshop, refreshing them on how to load a film into a tank, develop it and then make a simple darkroom print using an enlarger. A lot of information to fit into a relatively short amount of time.

What better way to while away a dull and chilly winter day (in the darkroom). This was taken on a trip down to Brighton with the OnlyFilms lot. 📷 Hasselblad 503cxi + Carl Zeiss f2.8 80mm Planar + extension tubes (can't remember which one) 🎞️ Kodak Tri-x 400 📄 Ilford MGRC Pearl #BelieveInFilm

The Metro is finally catching up, @givemeabiscuit.bsky.social 😂

Looking for 10 amber glass bottles like this one for the community darkrooom. Does anyone have any or have a trusted supplier? UK only. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

I did a contact print of another one of the glass plate negatives I bought the other week. I used Google Lens to find out that it's of Aberystwyth. Again, no idea of the photographer or when it was taken. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Blimey, I'm in the top spot for something! 😂 I was the user with the highest number of attended photowalk on the wonderful Photowalk.me platform. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

Some darkroom contact prints from some glass plates I bought at an antiques fair recently. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice
