I use the Pentax auto 110 and love the camera. Where are you getting superia 200 in 110? I have been using Lomography film stocks, but they don’t look this good!

That is Lomography film I'm using! The Fuji Superia I bought off ebay
Anyway, the key is you have to scan and pp it yourself.

No, those are rarer than Sirius posting a pic.

Oh the burn.

I messed up a roll just now pre dev. The cap popped off the cassette when removing the film from the Minolta 16 II. Developed anyhow and full of leaks. Still have decent exposures on the negative surprisingly. I got lucky.

It beats having my photographs being ripped on like it was done years ago on a website called APUG.org. You can laugh all you want but that lost me sales because of those thefts.

Do us a favor. Do what we do, shoot a few rolls for sharing online. Go for it! It's fun, it's something people do these days. Invest the time and effort and share your knowledge and skills. Someone may rip off a photo but it'll be from a roll you expected that to happen to.

I don't share 90% of my work, more like 95% of my work. I shoot over 125 rolls every year, dozens of sheets and 10's of thousands of digital photos. It's my job. I share a sliver of what I shoot, and that little bit is what I have the most fun with.

Alrighty then...

In other news, I developed the roll of Tri-X I put through the Kodak Fling (tm) and it's looking pretty good. I does look like I'll need more than three blind shots between frames. It also looks like the cardboard box did prevent light leaks. Scans will tell though.

Yeah the stuff I post here or anywhere online is super low rez, and the 'just for fun' stuff.
It's fun to participate.

You are way too serious Sirius, to be commenting in a low-fi thread. We just jam sh-tty film into sh-tty cameras, taking sh-tty pics of sh-tty stuff.

Actually I think that the 110 cameras I used were never low quality cameras and when I had enlargement made the enlargements were always high quality.

Hey! One mans crap is another's fertilizer.

Your statement about sums up my photo taking ideals these days. If I'm not having fun then why bother unless I'm getting paid.

Speaking of,

Put a roll of expired 16mm Plus-X through the Fling (tm) today. Box is getting a little dog eared and is now taped together to prevent light leaks. I think it's the ultimate sh*tty camera. I'm beginning to love it.

That piece of poop makes surprisingly good pics!

The last, partial frame in a submini reload always turns out for the best. Creasing the film gives you a good indicator of reaching the last frame in a Minolta cassette, but it wreaks havoc on the felt.

This thread just made me order 2 3-packs of Tiger and another roll of Purple.

I'm waiting patiently for The Darkroom to finish my last roll of Purple that was shot at various points of the Southwest and Las Vegas. :D

I can clearly see that creases at the bottom of the photograph.

Interestingly I used to get lots and lots of light leaks through the back paper with Lomo films. But it seems much much less now.
