Their stuff is immaculately pre-cut to suit your M2. They will do it to suit the exact camera (so with a hole for the self timer, etc.)

got the money back for the m2, found a good deal at a great little leica boutique i found, got a beater m2 which is in 100 percent wonderful mechanical condition, missing a shit ton o leather, smooth as butter. today was a good day.

and got some softies for the shutter releases!!

500 flat with three of those 20$ softies. so 440? i just had it checked out too, by the looks of it, it is in excellent shape, minus the leatherette, thank god, that last m2 was a damn nightmare, it was falling apart on me, the rewind button fell off moments before i exchanged it, shows how much i know, i dont think i should have ever bought it

I imagine, with the millions of soccer moms that are no longer shooting film snapshots, that the market is flooded with film processors. Meanwhile, the price of good color processing is slowly climbing. I saw two Noritsu minilabs on craigslist here in dallas for like $400 each. That's less than a D40. I don't do enough volume, but if I had a garage or something, I would probably start a small-time photo lab. With what pro labs charge for MF/LF color processing, I'm sure I could get enough business to keep the thing running.

The chemistry isn't really too cheap from what I understand though. Either way, that's awesome and I hope you can keep it running for a while. I hardly ever shoot color, and normal BW developing works fine for me. Either way I'm pretty jealous. It has a dryer incorporated, right?

Luke that is such a cool setup! I've seen a few minilabs for sale but they dont really fit in a 1 bedroom flat!

Yes i got this stupidly cheap, i can sell one of the drums for more than i got it for. and yeah this is going to be allot cheaper for 120 and 5x4 processing plus i can do it all at home no waiting for a week to get my photos.

A Tetenal Kit only cost around 30-40£s and that does like 100 rolls and im sure you can push more out of it. Same with E6. i didnt want a processor this big id would have got a little jobo but for the same price i found this and does it all for you so why not. to have something like this you really should be shooting atleast 10 rolls a day.

Yeah if you can find a cheap one id go for it, I would have liked a Atl 1500. But i didnt really want to spend over £400.
