Searching for Rodinal in the US.

[Stephanie Brim]

None of the small camera shops here are going to stock it so I'm pretty much going to have to go out of state to find it. Does anyone have a camera shop in their area that still has some? If they do, can you get me a way to get in touch with them?

I figure that if I can't find it in the US I'm going to have to order it from somewhere in Canada. Or find a clone. Or get off my lazy arse and make it myself. I'll find some way.

Oh, and BTW: I did find out that University Camera (http://ucamera.com) has the small bottles in stock. Not a *bad* price, but not really good either. Two and a half hours away, though, IIRC...would have to be a road trip for the boyfriend and I.

Rolling your own Rodinal.
Silverprint has a pdf (their ad in the December 2005 Black and White Photography) that explains how to make your own Rodinal.

I know that some company (A&O, is that right?) is supposedly going to make it again. However, why not just go with R09 or the Photo Formulary variant right _now_ and get your dev times calibrated for that? Those will be around for a long time and likely won't be victims to the visccitudes of the market as much.

I'm just going to get it from University Camera...somehow. Maybe I can talk the boyfriend into going by bribing him with food... 😛

I ordered two 500ml botles from Adorama

Local camera store here in Raleigh has several 500ml bottles for $10 apiece. Their website is HERE.

If you call and they won't ship, let me know. I'll be happen to mail you some.
