Thank you for taking the time to type that out! Very informative :clap: Unfortunately the tank is a 35mm one only, so the hunt continues. Should be made alot easier now by my well gained knowledge. Thanks all!:thumbs:

Hey guys, So I'm a total film newbie:wave: I have been given a Bronica ETRS from a family member and I have been loving it:love: Now I want to give it a shot at developing my own film, and a friend has this stuff for sale. Could you advise me if its suitable for me needs/what more is...

Thanks for the speedy replies everyone! :D I'm checking to see now if it is the OS version, and as you all have said my only worry seems to be the AF. Guess I am just going to have to play with it and see exactly how bad it is, seeing as I like to shoot with a 'photo journalistic' approach...

My bad, wasn't thinking clearly - images removed :thumbs: I should of used the blog link in the first place :cuckoo: Apologies once again! :)

I have been browsing a photo blog of a local photographer, and am blown away by his processing. Could anyone guide me in the right direction to get shots like this, they seem to be cross processed but its the 'summery' tint that I love. Any help? :) http://www.guywithcamera.co.za/blog/zanzibar/
