Hello from near King's Lynn
Hi, everyone,
I'm 72 and recently tried to update myself to digital. Bought a Leica Digilux 2. Now I'm sick to death of chargers, cables, computers, cards, Lightroom, Photoshop and heaven knows what else. And it's a heavy, clunky camera. So back to my Rollei T and my Rollei 35SE. Insert film. Take pics. Send to Ilford or Peak. Receive pics in post. Easy. Whatever will they think of next. |

hello agrokid, and welcome to Fadu.
What they'll think of next is not my worry, they'll surely come up with something that would cost you an arm and a leg. Allow me, however, to suggest you might think of next : to develop your own black and white film. Have you already tried it? look forward to seeing you on this forum Peter |

Have I tried developing B&W?
Thanks everyone for kind words. Yes, Peter, I used to have a darkroom, but not any more. Don't want the work. Only a 5x4 would tempt me down that road again. But can't really see me carrying one around. Not even a Razzle. I'm in love with my Rollei 35SE.

Welcome Ralph. I am slightly younger but had reached the same conclusions as yourself. Beside what you get from Ilford or Peak can be held in your hand and easily passed around friends in a pub without any high tech equipment
