I just joined and want to introduce myself, I'm Ben Myerson, I'm a retired former photographic store manager, I've been a keen photographer all my adult life, I shoot 35mm and 120 slide and colour negative film and have my work processed at pro labs, I don't have the space for a darkroom in my home,and they do a much better job than I can, I'm a big fan of the Fuji range of Professional films for both slides and prints. My cameras are two Mamiya C330 F and five Canon FD bodys , I don't own anything digital not even a scanner. Oh, I forgot I have a digital alarm clock ;)
I hope I can contribute something to to the discussions in this forum.

Ben.

Welcome aboard Ben.

If you have a kitchen sink you have enough room to develop film (tho I agree, not much point with colour neg) and if you have a bathroom, you have enough room to make prints - of course, other household members might have their own ideas about that :) ...

In any case, have fun!

Cheers, Bob.

Hi Ben and welcome. I recently went digital myself - in terms of a radio. Reception may be better on radio 4 but whatever happened to the instant switch-on that analogue gave you. I still miss the dimly lit dial in the dark and the moving needle.

Then there was the radiogram with a built-in drinks cabinet - he says, rambling on as the wife bops him over the head with the whisky bottle he has just emptied :D:
