  2. Harman Phoenix 2 review: a proper colour film now Hands-on review of Harman Phoenix 2 in 120, shot side by side with Phoenix 1 across two rolls in rural Gloucestershire. The honest verdict: it is a real step on from Phoenix 1, the halation is still there, and I am buying more.
  3. Harman Red 125 in 120: honest first impressions of a film I do not understand Harman Red is now available in 120 alongside its original 35mm launch.

Honest review with the bias declared upfront.

  6. Mamiya RB67 review: a great camera, but most of them have been ruined The Mamiya RB67 is a great medium format camera in good condition. The problem is that most of the ones for sale are not in good condition. I bought three. I returned two. I bought four lenses and returned two. Here is what to look for if you want to buy one that actually works.
