Not very good with the whole video shorts/reels thing, but there have been a few questions about how the Polaroid ND Filters we sell actually work. So here's a bit of an explainer youtube.com/shorts/ZX18e...

Have to praise LEE Filters for excellent customer service. Ordered a roll of ND film/gel – the raw material for our Polaroid ND Filters – and it turned up a bit crumpled and dusty. I emailed them at 7am yesterday, they had shipped me a new roll by 9:30am, and it turned up at home just now 👌

When a camera is completely beyond repair, instead of sticking it on eBay as junk and making it someone else’s problem, we like to strip it of usable bits and make them available. It’s a bit of a labour of love, but it’s great when someone finds exactly the part they need for their own repairs 😊

Just packed up this nice little Fujicolor Reala film case with belt hook, to hold 3 rolls of 35mm film. Not seen another one. Anyone remember if they were exhibition freebies or something back in the day? #FilmPhotography

New T-shirt design:
Let’s all go to Franke & Heidecke’s for some Calzones, some Haloumi Fries, and a Rolleiflex!

Hand drawn design - once in pencil & once in vectors - then printed on lovely organic cotton tees with vegan inks 🌱

Just had a casual little product photography session for a new tee design (proper post tomorrow). Needs must when you don’t have any proper lights, a neutral backdrop or a single working DSLR/Mirrorless camera…😅 first time I’ve ironed a sheet in decades… and it shows!

New on the site: A very tidy Polaroid 1000 Land Camera + Polatronic 1 flash + some ND Filters thrown in so 600 film can be used. This is from my own collection 😔 but I’m having a much needed cull. More pics and example shots here: filmcameras.uk/product/pola...

This Weston Master III works well and it’s very tidy for a septuagenarian. Includes solid case in very good condition, from an earlier v2 meter. Asking: £25. More: filmcameras.uk/product/west....

Without using a search engine or other reference system, do you know why the names 'Franke & Heidecke' are significant?

For want of a polling system here, perhaps you could 'like' or reply with a thumbs-up if you do.

Now £40. Small price drop on this film tested and tidy #Polaroid ONE. Go have a look. filmcameras.uk/product/pola...
#FilmPhotography #BelieveInFilm
This 1st Gen Polaroid ONE has: Clamshell design to protect the gizzards. Flash with on/off/red-eye modes. Self-timer. Tripod mount (!!) and clever wrist/palm strap arrangement. Think of the creative options 🤔. It’s good, so we’re asking £45.

I'm thinking about extending the photowalk.me functionality to photography clubs. It would give clubs their own landing page, membership admin, collection of fees, club calendar of events etc. Is there anyone on here a member or organiser of a photo club who would find this of interest?

Well.. that's a first... somebody must have asked what they needed in order to use M42 lenses with their FujiX mount body 🤷🏻‍♂️. Thanks AI. I guess. Still hate you though.

It’s a small step, but really I’m pleased to have some Film Cameras UK stock in local lab, The Darkroom UK 😊

Really must get back to fixing some “proper” cameras and put these fun Polaroids down.
On the bench needing various things:
Olympus OM1n, Trip & OM10. Pentax SuperA. Canon T70. About 25 lenses, various.
Under the bench: About 50-60 other items requiring some kind of repair.

Very pleased to find some #Polaroid 600 locally at Clifton Cameras (nowhere near Clifton now 😅). With pretty strong feelings about ‘buying local’ and not from BigCorpInc etc, I usually get it from a tiny shop in Cirencester, but they had no stock. Now to test some more cameras! 🙌

Here’s a perfectly good, working and film-tested Polaroid P 600 (close-up + flash), selling for a bit less because it has a few marks. Asking £25. Go take a look: filmcameras.uk/product/pola...

On a #Polaroid trip at the moment. Here’s a fully working and film tested 636 CloseUp for sale. Testing gives us excuses to capture shenanigans like Stan and Duggee here 😊. Asking £35.
