If it can be stuffed into the Pelican Case and you're willing to part with it, then by all means, add to it! I doubt it's close to any weight/cost thresholds at the moment, so you're unlikely to push the cost of shipping dramatically higher. If there was a list of people and places, it's from before the Great Delay of New York and is therefore pretty suspect at this point. HookShot posted:Canada always gets so screwed over.  I know.It'll come back around, eventually. So far, the Nordics have jumped in. Who else is still interested?

Send it down here!  I don't know if there's any more of us interested, but I'm sure I remember some Dorkroomers in SE Asia who were keen.

Did I just spend 2 hours shooting a roll of film that wasn't spooling properly when advanced? Will I develop that first roll to find it all blank?

It might make some type of logistical sense for it to go to the UK first, then Norway, Sweden, Finland, (or some variation of those three) then Germany and further south. If that helps with shipping at all. If it's flat all round then I'll take the drat thing. I want to try and find the ugliest buildings in Oslo. It's kind of shooting fish in a barrel but it's a plan. I'll shove a 1980s flash in the box if it fits too. If that'll seal the deal.

I'm in Finland as well, and have access to a film scanner that a goon friend owns. I live in the Helsinki region, so you'd probably get photos of Suomenlinna, a 18th century island fort built by Sweden to defend against Russia. Also maybe dogges and/or cattes, and maybe a photo or two from a fancy academic white-tie event if I get the camera near the 13th of April!

Well here is a real kick in the teeth. If you want something other than color processing, and you want your negatives back, and you having something other than 110, 135, or disc film, there is exactly one place in Houston that will develop it. I thought I had found another, but nope, they send everything to Aker Imaging, the before mentioned single source for film developing in a town of 4 million. The Wal-Mart, Walgreens, and CVS here all send their stuff out to FujiColor and you absolutely will not ever get your negatives back. There also wasn't a daylight developing tank or reels to fit a 4X5 tank to be had at any of the remaining three camera supply places, none of the highschools have dark rooms anymore, the one college that does only allows student use and even then, the drat thing is only open on weekends. Houston has, apparently, said gently caress you to film.

Yeah, regular bog standard black and white. I would have done it myself, but I only have a holder for sheet film, and I couldn't find a reel that would fit my 4X5 tank.

Taking Thursday off so I can re-shoot the pics I may or ma ynot have hosed up on Sunday!  Squidflakes: Wal-Mart doesn't return negatives, huh? Guess I'll be mailing mine to Dwayne's.  Edit: Apparently there's 1 Walgreen's here that still does 1-hour development for 35mm C-41. I'll give it a shot.  Re-edit: $4.99 for 1-hour development with no prints and negs uncut

Send it to somebody else in this thread - I'll volunteer, but I know there are others who are closer (and in the same country) who can develop a roll of B&W and send the negs back to you. If no Americanos step up, send the undeveloped roll of "bog standard black and white" to me. Or buy a 135 reel, I suppose. pseudonordic posted:Taking Thursday off so I can re-shoot the pics I may or ma ynot have hosed up on Sunday!

Well poo poo! I forgot to include handy tips and instructions for using the digital shitcamera! This camera has a sliding guard over the lens. This is excellent to protect what is surely very high quality optics. This guard slides back when you wish to take terrible photographs. The guard has three positions: "closed", "open", and "1/16 inch from open". Note that there are click stops at each of these three positions. When sliding it to "open", be aware that you actually only slid it to the well-defined click stop of "1/16 inch from open". The camera will alert you to this fact with a giant retarded error message. Once you remedy that, you will note that actions such as "holding the camera like a normal person" will move the guard from "open" to "1/16 inch from open" and cause the lens to retract. The flash may or may not be on all the time, regardless of the setting three levels deep in the menu. It will also quite happily decide to use flash in blazing sunlight for no apparent reason, when set to "auto". Note that blazing sunlight is also pretty much the only time the autofocus will work. Should you wish to delete images, please note that there isn't a button for this. It's 2 menu options down, with "delete one" and "delete all" as options, and should you select "delete one", it will do so, then proceed to the next image while in delete mode, and ask if you want to delete that one too. Repeat until you either work out how to make it stop deleting images or just turn it off and slam your dick in a car door. The display features an intelligent power saving system that makes it either refuse to turn on or turn off for no apparent reason. Also note that to conserve battery, you cannot activate the display, nor can you use the zoom function, while the flash is charging, which is always, even when flash is turned off. Possibly ESPECIALLY when the flash is turned off, I have not tested this. You will receive the camera in "1M" mode, which I can only assume means one megapixel. I'm sure there's somewhere you can change it, but with "turning the flash on or off" three layers deep in the menus, image size settings are probably deep enough that you'll never find them because the interface is so counterintuitive that you exit the menu system every four seconds because you pressed a wrong thing and it dumps you back to the top level. Before using this camera, please write down a list of people who love you and care for you, because the urge to kill yourself will be near-overpowering. Overall score: 8.4/10
