My New Toy!

[Godfrey]

that would be a pity. i found the colour film to be a nice one - but of course, it's just not the same as B&W.

It is a pity, the Fuji films are quite nice both color and B&W, but there are only so many different hobbies I have time for.

I have plenty of the FP-3000b in stock, though, and it will likely be a couple of years befor the 350 becomes a shelf queen.

The color is also,interesting in that you can extract the negatives from it easily. I don't know if that's as easy to do with the B&W. But the "only so many hobbies" thing is the biggest factor in when I retire the camera to a shelf.

ah, then i'm relieved. at least for a while.
and i think i can relate to your reasoning.

i found it extremely easy for B&W - you just need to carefully wash off the "gunk", and remove the container bags where the chemicals are kept.

for colour, it's a bit more complicated, but possible. i found some recipes online, but did not try it out myself as i could net get my hands on the bleach used by the authors (living in shanghai, and not in the US you can't expect the same stuff to be available in the groceries and supermarkets).

cheers,

ps/edit:
google for "fuji fp-100c negative reclamation", and you'll find plenty of information including videos.
