As for other types of film, their sales are "going down at a high speed.
That's it. There's nothing we can do it about it," he shrugs.

I was just wondering, for the sake of improving my photography skills,

the focal ring was very lose on a second hand 200mm Hanimex lens for a
Pentax camera. I fixed to problem fine and no more lose focal ring, BUT!

It focuses just as well before and I have cleaned all the lenses, but

I have a friend who's looking to sell off his excess gear, he's
rationalising and only wants 1 4x5 and a pair of Rollies so he's looking to
clear a Pentax 67 outfit and a Wisner 4x5 kit
it's all pretty much mint and he's a nice guy and deserves a fair price,

I already have a Canon film SLR and will go Digital soon to most likely

subjects and would like to know the most ideal Macro lens for this

When I think back

As per earlier thread, have purchased INCA batteries and charger.  Have a
pre wedding shoot to do at 6 pm today.  Will be trying out a 550, 420 and
580 flashes with and without brollies.  Have charged up the batteries today

Just wondering from you guys & ladies here.
Anyone gone digital and maybe regretted it?

Nikon SLR cameras, using film.
