    You can always make your own pinhole camera from a sheet of paper...

    Amazing looking camera Thonda, but jeez it'll take ages to make.

    Slidinginfinity - gas camera - If I get the time I might just give it a go.

    Well done to both of you.

    Any chance of a boards discount? :rolleyes:

    Hi well i spoke to my boss and he agreed to give boards people a discount on printing etc... :D

    You can get film developed, printed and cd for €6.00

    He said there will be a 15% discount on all film services and 10% on all digital services. You can get film onto cd pretty cheap too, (I have to confirm the price) so that should work well for all the free unicare film floating about!!

    Just bring your stuff to the Camera Centre in Blanchardstown Shopping Centre and mention boards.... easy peasy! :pac:

    Any quote on just development and a cd?

    I don't usually require prints of every shot.

    Just to follow up on the home developing, managed to develop my first roll of film this weekend. A few mistakes made but still seemed to work okay. Negatives digitised with a digital camera in macro mode and colours etc adjusted in photoshop. ThreeFour of the better looking shots

    placebo- pm me and we can try to meet up and get you some film on Thursday.


  • Registered Users Posts: 649 ✭✭✭Kazujo


    Hi,

    If there's any left could I get a few rolls please?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,220 ✭✭✭Slidinginfinity


    Sure, just PM me and we can arrange a meet or you can stop into you local unicare pharmacy and ask for some they are more than happy to had it out.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,217 ✭✭✭FX Meister


    Uncare in Artane still have some of this film left. I was in there today. It's in a basket in front of the fuji desk and has been removed from all the packaging.


  • Registered Users Posts: 363 ✭✭m_s_nixon


    anyone know of any unicares around Dublin that might still have some of the free film left?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,220 ✭✭✭Slidinginfinity


    I don't know of any but I still have a couple hundred rolls to give out if you need some. (Free, of course)


  • Registered Users Posts: 363 ✭✭m_s_nixon


    I'll try a couple of unicares near me and see if they have any, if not then i'll take you up on your offer, thank you! :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,974 ✭✭✭✭Kintarō Hattori


    Hmnn I just bought a Fed 5 and there's a Unicare near me in Cabra. Are they still doing this do you know. I know they were giving it away free but I'd feel like an awful chancer asking them if it's finished and perhaps the salesperson didn't know about it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,974 ✭✭✭✭Kintarō Hattori


    Hmnn turns out they had none. If anyone is willing to spare some film I can return the favour by giving them a discount/advice should they be looking to buy any electronics now or in the future.

    Hi FX, that would be excellent, I'd really be thrilled with that. Well you know where I am 5 days a week so let me know what day/time is good for you. If you have any purchases planned now or in the future let me know and I'll see if my discount beats web prices! :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 404 ✭✭katiemaloe


    Hey FX Where did you find the film? I thought all the unicares had been totally raided by now!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,217 ✭✭✭FX Meister


    I just picked up a load of them when they were around.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 2,283 Mod ✭✭✭✭Chorcai


    So is all this free film gone or what ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,217 ✭✭✭FX Meister


    Chorcais, if you look around you can still get it. Although not in the huge boxes you once could. Take a look in this thread and find the last post when someone said it was still in a particular unicare store, find the phone number of that store, call them and ask if they still have any left. It's not that hard. I understand it's not that easy for some people to get to some stores. Like I said, I live in Clontarf and I'm near the Dart station so I'm not that hard to get to and I'll gladly give 20 or 30 films to anyone who wants them.
