Well done i want to do this just awaiting a 35mm camera then i going to get stuff is it difficult:
Not really, The daylight developing tank is similar to the Agfa Rondinax 35u, these come up on ebay regularly and are easy to use.

The beauty is you don't need to fumble in a bag, meaning the film gets onto the spool without to much agro. I just followed the instructions in the box, visited the Ilford website, and gave it a try.

I'm surprised it worked so well.

After a deep breath I started, all seemed to go well, I then looked and YES!!!

I just developed my first film!!!

OK, for those old hands out there this may not be so earth shattering, but.

I got a daylight developing tank from ebay, bought a roll of Ilford FP4 and a bag full of bottles.

After following the Ilford site PDFs I now have a developed film hanging up to dry.

When it's dry and I can scan the negs I'll try and post a decent pic, if there are any.

Did you have to get permission to shot?

I only ask as we were in Durham last weekend and they don't let you shot in the cathedral!

As for C&C, last ones my choice, just for the goofy look on the bird's face. The rest seem a little bright.

I keep saying this, try your standard 18-55 to get going.

Yes it is a digital lens but highly use-able above 20mm(ish).see this thread.

Any vignetting can be seen in the view finder.

I seem to recall the 'standard' lens for the P30T is this one.

Never used a sniper until recently, tried this CLICKY and so far it works.

That sounds possible, latest firmware here for the K-x.

Hope this helps.

I sit corrected.

You still get great shots from both.
