    Does anyone know where I could pick up a box of Ilford 400 B&"W film? I know that its available but all I've found is single boxes, and the local shop is reluctant to sell me a full box... for some reason.
    Also, somewhere cheap would be awesome to!
    I only ask because I was given 4 rolls of B&W but turns out its CN and I cant develop it in college.

    bulk buy film or buy bulk film?
    the reason i ask is that there *is* a difference - you can buy bulk film and cut and spool it yourself.

    Actually you can develop B&W cn in B&W chemicals. Probably end up a little grainier than it should do, and you'll probably have to trawl around a bit to find times for whatever dev you're using, but it's definately doable.

    Otherwise, try gunnes on wexford street or failing that (or if you're not in a hurry) 7Dayshop.co.uk is where I normally buy film. They don't stock ilford though, but they do have fuji & kodak B&W film. Their prices have gone up a bit recently though so I'm looking around for someplace else as well ...

    Well I've printed no problem but i dont like the quality of the prints to be honest. Ive only 2 rolls of B&W left now so i wanna get my hands on some more. Im using Agfa but i got them in germany, never seen them over here.
    Thats great though I'll have a look in Gunnes i just never get out to that side of the town.

    I would say that the below webpage is the place where you will find everything:

    http://www.foto-r3.com/

    It's the place where I buy B&W film and Darkroom stuff, it's prices are really competitive!.

    Cheers!.
