Because I can't help but be curious, 2 rolls each of Noir 100 and 200 film for the medium format cameras.
Noir is a house label of British film respooler "ThisishowIRoll" and is very, very likely Svema film

I have just been to see this, and it is a solidly impressive body of work, worth a visit.
More impressively, the majority of the B&W prints are labelled "hand printed by the artist"

The test rolls have arrived! Looking forward to seeing how well they do. I'm generally a fan of the Kentmere films, so I expect I'll be happy with what I get from them

Notting hill Carnival weekend is upon us. Last year I shot 7 rolls of 35mm film and 1 roll of 120. I am hoping to match my record, give myself some proper darkroom work for when winter hits
