Yes, the last time I used Tech pan was at uni. I seem to remember it being a problem to get then. it had largely dissappeared in 35mm format and I certainly haven't seen any since. I had a Nikon FM fitted with a lovely f1.2 50mm nikkor, which I remember came in extremely useful for taking shots of the fashion design goings-on in the workshop next door...
Unfortunately, the camera got stolen (replaced it with a nasty but cheap F301, then an F3 and back up FM2n when I could afford them)....and even worse much of my uni negs have dissappeared. I was less careful back then (back then I mean less than 15 years ago tho!)
I'm on the look out for obscure film to experiment with...ebay throws up all sorts of oddities, particularly because I think the now digital studios and labs are clearing out their old, rarely used film stock.
we shall see.
thanks again for the help Don
