Darkroom / Film Users?

Hi All,

Not sure how active this portion of the forum was. My wife and I moved up here about 2 years ago and I've been slowly converting the garage to a darkroom for black and white and possible color prints down the road. I wasn't sure if there were any active film / darkroom users on the forum?

WDB123:
 I used to have a Darkroom when I lived down the hill, I used to develop E-6 slides and C-41 negatives, RA-4 for prints, can't imagine trying to deal with all the dust living in the Phelan desert, maybe in Wrightwood it wouldn't be a problem.
What are you shooting? I still have a few film cameras but I haven't put any film through them in years.

thubaru:
The garage isn't any better for dust. However, it is manageable. Color would be a joy to do, but I've been hesitant on it for a while- just need to pull the trigger on it.

Disposing of chemistry has been a challenge

I shoot 35mm/120mm, but I will use my large format camera from time to time.

When was the last time you printed/developed? It seems it's a dying breed to develop and print film.

WDB123:
 It has been a long time since I did any printing, I was printing 35mm and medium format and developing up to 4" x 5".

Believe it or not there is quite a few people shooting film again, I will stick to digital and scanning my old negatives.

Chant with me.  Bring back film. Bring back film.
