I think it's the markings/numbers Lomo B&W film that's the problem. I've no problem with other films except that one

You can get the b&W film developed at shops like Ruby or TripleD.

Xpro? Usually it means developing slide film with C41 chemical that are meant for negative film. That gives some pretty funky contrasty colors.

After you finish the roll in your Diana, just turn the advance dial few more times. Then open up the back and you'll see the entire roll on the right. Take it out carefully and there will be a small piece of adhesive to let you tape it. That will prevent the roll from unwinding ... do this carefully or your whole roll will be in hell in seconds. Errr ... did you not read the manual?

gosh. google, or read the manual.
if you don't understand that, i don't see how asking us and us giving replies that will resemble what you might read in a manual/online will help.
