Re: Keeping 5x4 so 5x7 must go!

Do you have the model IDs for the lens cases? Are they for 4x4 or 6x6 lens panels?

Thanks,

Re: Photobackpacker 4x5 RPT Cascade Film Holder Case

I assume that is the holder that has been designed as a replacement for the (no longer produced) Gnass holder and was discussed at length over on LFPF with much input to the design from the forum?

I look forward to a user review once you receive it and have had a chance to use it in the field.

Re: >>>>> Velvia 50 - quid a sheet <<<<<

It's also interesting that Fuji UK sold this short-dated film stock to 7dayshop instead of it appearing as an 'offer' on the FujiFilm shop site as has happened previously. It seems like it's almost 2 years since the FujiFilm site had any sort of offer on film.
