    i *think* i have some expired 64T at home - would be expired a few years though (would hazard a guess of a BBE of 2005), but they've been sitting in a fridge for the last couple of years.
    i've no plans to use it, so if you want to experiment with it, you can have it, assuming it's still there.

    Is this to x-pro ? Or for legitimate reasons ? I have a couple of rolls of 64t 35mm and another few of 120 at home but I'm jealously guarding them. Its the best xpro film I've tried.

    Never seen it in town but never really asked or looked for it. Try all the usual suspects I guess.

    that would be perfect, an exchange could be done :D

    If you're shooting these for fashion, shoot some normally processed film or digital too. You have no real control over xpro, so if the colours go arseways, it can leave you in trouble. You're going to need some form of realistic representation to fall back on if you client isn't happy with the xpro or sensitivity the sfx will bring you. Always cover your arse in there situations, no matter how much of a romantic notion there is to shoot and process all sorts of 'out there' ways.

    i have six rolls of 120, BB 2004, and four rolls of 35mm, BB 2005.
    melekalikimaka, do you want the 35mm or 120? you have first dibs on both, but if you only want one format, daire has first dibs on the other.

    The magic 80a filter?

    You could use standard daylight balanced films then......

    its a tag along event, yeah its fashion... i've done a few before and will be doin a bit of digital, just bored tbh and wanna give some other things a shot, and looked about and didnt find much tungsten xproed fashion shoots, and given your points im not suprised, plus the sfx is sitting on its arse here, not a landscape man so cant see much use for it, damn impluse buys

    photocare on middle abbey street used to have expired 135 really cheap - like €1 or €2 a roll I think, try them

    i find t64 is the worst film to cross process if you shoot indoors - but outside in really REALLY brightest ever sunny condition, then it's gorgeous
