I went to four different stores looking for black and white film - two drugstores, a grocery store, and finally a camera store. No luck. I finally gave up and bought a roll of Kodak Ultramax 400 because I've had good luck shooting at ISO 320 around here. I shot two photos, only to learn that the first two photos are usually burned when you load the film. Oh well.

I'll use most of the roll tomorrow, if not all of it. Depends on if I have time to get to the base of Snoqualmie Falls by 10 AM or not - if not, I'll do it Friday. Either way, the camera will be on its way in a couple of days.

Glazer's has a ton of B&W as does Kenmore Camera.

I am sorry that you live in the scrub tier part of the Seattle metro (ei; anywhere outside the city limits). Too bad you are planning on sending the camera out in a timely fashion otherwise I would offer to meet you some where and hand off a roll of Arista Premium.

Why would be there any issue with a local trade instead of mailing? I know someone else is up next, but if it can save someone fifteen bucks on shipping...

Nah I don't want the camera I just meant I would have donated a roll of B&W to the project. It takes me like a month to shoot a roll of 35mm no need to have that hanging over my head.

Edit - in the time it took me to type up a response while chasing around my toddler, I saw that 8th doesn't want the camera. Thanks for the offer of film, that's a very nice gesture. Hit up the next person who gets it in Seattle?

Thanks, I do appreciate the offer but with my work schedule right now photography is a bit rough. If this camera keeps on moving I would be interested in shooting a roll sometime in the future.

I am planning a cross country drive in May or June and could pick up or drop off the camera any where between Seattle and upstate NY on I90. If the logistics aren't a nightmare I think it would be cool to shoot a roll on the road or something and then hand it over to some other nerd along the way. No solid plans yet just thought I would see what people think of that idea.

It occurs to me that it should be possible to develop in the Pelican case - it's waterproof, and big enough you could just toss a roll in there and let it unravel itself. You'd have to change solutions in the dark, but it's basically tray developing with the option of agitation by tossing it down the stairs.

If somebody does this, please remove the foam inserts first.

And upload a recording to youtube of you drunkenly tossing a case full of chemicals down the stairs.

Heh I had skipped right over that statement.

gently caress that, I don't want the stupid camera anymore. 5 months rotting in NYC, then it skips all the way to the west coast, and apparently now it's a "coast only" around the world camera? Here's hoping it gets sent to a watery grave trying to document those coasts.

As much as I like to make fun of people bogarting the camera, what's the rush? There is no deadline for this project right? The longer it's out there in the wild the more diverse the photos will be. I do think (unless money is a concern) that two shooters in the same area shouldn't get it in a row that way it bounces all over the place.

Much like when MrDespair sent me a N5005 declared as a gift, value $10. Customs opens it, declares it to be a digital camera, assesses the value at $300, and charges $45 in tax.

I mean, yeah I'll dispute it and get my money back, but this poo poo does happen. Goddamn though, thinking a N5005 is digital. What with the film spools and lack of LCD and all.

They probably just figured if you were dumb enough to use a N5005 then you wouldn't bother disputing the tax.
