Camera buffs. I need some ISO1000 speed film
wrote:
Courtesy of rec.boats various photo and lens discussions, I'm getting
the bug to break out the old Yashica TL super and the Minolta x-700.
I've used 100 150 200 400, but I really enjoyed working with 1000 and
1500 speed 35mm.
people asked me "what do you want to use that film for. it's too
grainey and the color is bleak?"
I like to stop stuff. Att he time, like helicoptor rotors, slow down
airplane props etc. And doing low light things.
When overseas about all that was readily available was Fuji, which was
fine, and 20 yrs ago kodak here yuou could get Kodak and Fuji, , but I
can't seem to find any anywhere now.
What happened. did it really become obsolete because 400 is in the
plastic throw-away's and everybody has gone digital?
I oculd go back to using 400, but I'm kind of used to 1000+
Where can I find the stuff?
Thanks!
Tim
Do you have a Wolf Camera in your area? They have Fuji 1000, and I
thought that I saw that Kodak was making a 600 in either kodachrome or
ektachrome.
