True Bob, developing B&W-film really is super easy. Doesn`t require much equipment either.

[Jat]

Payed 1.000NOK = just about $200 for a complete processing kit for photographies. I finally found the time to clean all the tubs & tanks and will try to process my very first roll of B&W this week. I'm used to DSLR's and have outlived a 350D, and am on my 2nd 20D. Can't wait to get my room dark and my hands dirty! Will make sure to show you what I get out of it. Cross your fingers for none of those over exposed pieces of paper.

Love all the stuff you guys have posted! Great people and posts in this thread!

Nice pics, Bob. It's not a college class, it's much cheaper, hehe. And yea, not trying to meet chicks, being one is enough for me. Anyway, sweet shots!! People are a hard subject for me, but you do people pictures very nicely!! (Please excuse my crappy writing soooo tired... going to bed now...)

Thanks for your compliments Miss VertigoJ. You write nicely. I know (and love) all those Maui and visiting windsurfers. Good luck with your darkroom plans. Maybe you'll push some B&W from 400ASA to 1200 for me someday. Anyway, for now, sleep tight and don't let the bed bugs bite...

Jat, that's awesome! Definitely let us know how that turns out.

yeah, developing black and white photos is super easy. i want to try color sometime but my school's dark room doesn't have the equipment or something.

[bdoka]

o yea, its like that

Hey, got some shots up from PA Outlaw.. some are kinda blurry and have pretty poor composition but it happens.

They're here: http://flickr.com/photos/hellovertig...7605147606750/

Also, anyone know anything about the Canon Rebel 2000? (Not digital Rebel, it's a film camera.. I am thinking something with AF would be a big help and I can get one for about $70)

Well this is my first post on this thread. I've always enjoyed taking pictures, but it's hard with your parents crappy camera. Here are the best ones I took today when it was raining and I was pretty board. Suggestions? I plan on getting a better camera, but not SLR.

I really liked the color in this one.





One I liked of my dog looking bored.

Thrown to the wolves

I think it's a little too sharp in a few spots

[lexx]

I used to quite like this picture, now I'm not sure

[Wells]

I have a film rebel 2000. It's a fine camera; although mine likes to randomly stop working every once in a while. All the lenses will fit a digital camera; so that's good.

The $85 50mm lens is much much sharper and better than the kit lens, too.

btw, this was taken on film for sure. No DLSR can get this sort of color no matter how many hours you spend on photoshop

im going to vent here:

you're the rudest person on this fuckin board. i never said i wanted my camera to take a pic like that. i have quite a few older 35mm and if i wanted a pic like that, id use them. i asked what was used. not if my camera could capture that.

stop being such a fuckin chump. enjoy the photography for what it is. eat a couple chill pills and enjoy.

your high horse will only hold you for so long...

I don't know, that was a pretty rude response from yourself.

Do you dispute the fact it was taken with film, or that this wasn't a photoshop effect?
If you don't dispute what I said, I think you owe me an apology.

Billings, have a word with the lady

you do voice your opinion a little to much, too harshly and in unnecessary times.

All you guys are too uptight. I don't see anything wrong with lexx's comment.

Qeustion: What'd you use?
