    Can anyone help me out with where rents Flextight scanners for use in Dublin?

    I noticed that the Gallery of Photography doesn't have one anymore. I also rang Rua Red and they said it stopped working and they have even closed their whole mac lab so can't even scan or print there anymore.

    I know Copper House Gallery has one but was hoping for something a bit cheaper as it's just one neg I want to scan at high quality.

    It's 35mm. Flextights do both though, don't they?

    Thanks for the offer. I have the Epson 700 myself. I was hoping to use the flextight as I need to crop in on the 35mm neg for a print and was looking for the best quality I could get.

    Just got a load of film back so must test out the 35mm vs 120 capabilities. It's been a while since I used it properly.
    Got some lovely Velvia rolls back and they look great even on my lightbox.

    calling his camera 'the missus' is a little bit of a stretch.

    Yes. It's all happening soon. I get to start a photographic journey influenced by you :)

    Nikon F5 with Ilford PanF Plus 50 from 7 years ago. I need to process the film quicker after the exposure - PanF doesn't like delays :)

    A lot of the interest I have in shooting different films is seeing what I get out of each one, they often have different characters, different transitions / tones / contrast / microcontrast etc. I like to keep editing to a minimum, crop, dust removal, some basic colour correction or contrast. Personal preference really, everyone to their own, I really mean that.

    That all said, I would totally tone down the processing on that shot :-)

    Last year I found 20+ rolls of various 35 and 120 (Pan F, FP4 and HP5) from 15-20 years ago and they all developed fine.
