Buy medium format films / 120

[pipo999]

Hi,

Will be in the Lion City for the whole next week, appreciate if you can point me to shops where they sell 120 format films, both B&W and color.

Thanks!

The best bet would be to get it from Cathay Photos at Peninsula Plaza or Ruby Photos at Peninsula Shopping Centre. Ruby is the official distributor for Ilford in Singapore.

1. Depending on where you go... not many places process 120 nowadays. Konota at Pennisular Plaze 1st floor does 120 processing and cost the same price as 35mm. Please check with them on the exact price.

2. Depending on the format u shooting. 645 (6cmx4.5cm) gives u 16 shots. 6x6 gives u 12 shorts. 6x7 gives u 10 shots... and so on...

U can do a google and get loads of info on it...

Processing at Konota, Peninsular Plaza is $4 per roll. Deceloping 4R/4S photos is $0.60 or $0.70 per pc. Not sure of the exact price since I only process the film then scan it myself now.

Triple D at Burlington Square is $5 per roll but developing 4R/4S photos is $0.50 each.

Hitch a ride on this thread instead of starting a new one... Does anyone have an idea on the price for Fuji's 160S ? I am almost certain it's cheaper where I am now... but just want to be double-confirm before I buy in bulk from them...
