Konica 35mm film negs being sold at International Plaza

[nightwolf75]

dunno if anyone is interested in this. i was out at international plaza for a clinic appt this afternoon. since i was early, i went to walk ard IP.

came across a laundrymart (no, i'm not making this up) on the 2nd floor that has stacks of konica 35mm film negatives on sale. apparently, the laundarymart used to be a konica developing centre too. but from the looks of it, they no longer have developing machines in the shop.

so, for those looking for cheap film, i suggest u pop by IP one of these days, if u happened to be in the neighbourhood.

read from somewhere konica stop producing them liao...The last time I bought this batch of 20 I have, is $2 for 1roll. Its not a expensive or solid film, just consumer grade. But I like its colours. keeping for some to expire for maybe 1-2years, dunno what kinda of effect will it have.

as max said, it's cheap. IIRC, short of buying carrefour's in-house brands, konica used to be the cheapest 35mm film u can get a few years ago.

but, the quality of the prints from konica film can be weird at times. not a bad thing, if u are shooting with a toy camera.

konica centuria 200's colour from my observation, has a purplish blue hue, not very desirable actually. NW75 is right, to some, its weird, not many people like. But I like. I feel if they have slide films, the xpro will look good.
