120 film though.

BTW each time somebody mentions how to get Diafine shipped internationally without paying a fortune I point them to Huron Camera. Very nice service as well.

Hi all,

Just another happy Huron Camera customer here. I ordered Diafine last Friday and received it this morning! Including shipping this was cheaper than a bottle of DD-X off the shelf down the road, and quicker than mail order film in the UK.

If you want some don't hesitate! Can't wait to see how it compares to the home-brew and diluxol vitesse I've been using. I might have to take the afternoon off...

I've never seen Diafine here in Australia. I asked around at all my usual haunts and no-one had even heard of it. I suspect there may be some problem with shipping it here, although I can't imagine why. After finding the recipe on the net, I rang a local chemical firm to see if the ingredients were readily available in appropriate quantities (they were) and if there was any chance a rank hack like me would blow myself up (not likely). So I can make my own for about AU$200 for about 5 litres of each solution. I'm considering it, but it seems pricey compared to my usual developer, HC-110.

Does anyone know why it's not available here?

It's also hard to find here in Canada. I think why few would stock it, is because it's reuseable, and 1gal would last a _very_ long time. Just order the 1gal size from Huron or Freestyle. It should still be cheaper than DIY.

$200.00 dollars Australian? You are kidding me!!

Diafine is not restricted in any way from shipping internationally. Just go to Huron Camera's web site and order a batch. It is a dry powder in two cans (Par A and Part B).

Huron will ship via international mail instead of the WAY more expensive courier methods so this should be MUCH cheaper for you.
