Linear Polarization Film purchase in 2 days - want some?

Postby tasadam on Mon Sep 19, 2005 12:24 am

Hi. I have the need for some linear polarization film. The full story on why can be read here
I have been to every photo shop in Hobart and only 2 knew what I was talking about, one being unhelpful (can't get, and it's too expensive anyway), the other advised me it needs to be imported from America and is expensive.

Having googled my way through mountains, I have found a source in the US of polarizing film at a pretty good price. I am willing to purchase more than I need if people want to contact me before Wednesday morning 21/9, should anyone else also want some - I can purchase up to 10 feet with no extra freight and it seems like a good price.
The site I will be buying from is here with pricing and all that.

Of course, should anyone have enough for 2 flash units and a lens that they don't need and would like to "get rid of" for an appropriate fee, please contact me as well. PM me or leave a post here.

Lastly, does anyone know where I can obtain "Kodah Colour-Separation guide and a Step-Wedge (greyscale)"? (Pasted from first link)

Vanbar for the Kodak Q-13 or Q-14 Colour Seperation Guide if that is what you are after.

Don't you mean "enough for 2 flash units"?
You would typically use a normal screw-in polarising filter on your lens.

If anyone's curious about the possible results, check out this article at NSN.
