Re: Auzzie.rail catching up.



Goody! Looks like my fares business is taken care of.
All I have to do is double check my plans for a good Day in Luera and
Hawksburry River and beyond.
===
Today I was in the Plaza (Penrith Plaza for the locals!) and had a good
browse over film.
Fuji 200 I was looking for, and also selecting B& W films.

I started at the Kodak Store (Kodak Express, Business name "Smiths")
and was browsing.

First I came past Kodak Gold Zoom 800 I asked the woman behind the
counter about this and she explained in a really quick and
sophisticated manner I couldn't even understand!

"This film is designed for camera's over 100mm zooms 'cause it's
faster" I caught up, about the Kodak 800.

I then asked about the Black and White
"For darkroom developement or for us to develope"
Obviously for develope not in darkroom. I requested a look at the Kodak
one, suited at 35mm film and then she went on for half a minute,
speaking really fast about developement of the film which I couldn't
keep up with!
something to do with

"blah blah blah......delevope with Colour Chemicals..."

Anywayz the price for it was around 6 or 7.95 which was fairly
reasonable.

I then went to the Rabbit Photo up the Shopping Centre.
Here the single salesperson (Female) also gave me information on Black
and White but this time much slower and easier to understand. The price
of this B&W film I couldn't remember (Cause of the brand but what I
could remember is that is was 8 something).

Last I went to the Konica store wayyyyy on the other side of the Plaza.
there an Asian Background man (Probably Korean) had given me a look at
the flm but wasn't giving information other than answering my Q's the
same ones I asked the Rabbit photo and Smith's.

By the way, B&W film at the Konica place was $$$$$$$11.95!!!
===

So there's my recall of Film.
I'm a little confused here though.
Fuji 200 isn't capable of action of partly sunny. Wouldn't Fuji 800 be
better (For taking pictures of moving trains)?
And anyone here using Kodak?


Thanks to all
