Nik & Trick Photographic Services

We found a couple of boxes of the lovely Lomo 800 35mm at the back of the store so grab them (as single rolls) quick!

After these are gone, we are probably not going to stock it again...why?

There's too little return for too much outlay on their films now, that and folk no longer buying it in a great rush.

We shall see....

The New Lucky SHD100 in 35mm is now with us and available!

https://ntphotoworks.com/product/lucky-shd100-black-white-film-35mm-36-exposures/

A fantastic bit of film at a terrific price means that we're expecting this to become very popular over the course of time....more so once our colleagues at BelliniFoto have tested this film scientifically with their developers.

A nicely rounded thing I think you'll agree 🤘

The Nikon F2 we adore as a model, because of it's bulletproof build, the over-engineering causing so many of these to survive, hence so much demand for such classic hardware.

Why do you lo0ve about them? Why do you fancy one of these?

I expect it will actually go on Ebay where I'm going to list this for silly money to keep ahead of the fees.

However, here it is and it's beautiful.

Righty...let's get this lovely stuff booked in...

It's not as much as we wanted to get into stock because we think this is going to be a best seller once folk get into it.

We're just sending several rolls down to our team mates at Bellini Foto for scientific establishment of development times which will make for a wonderfully rounded bundle won't it?

It's finished to an extremely high standard by out team mates at Shanghai this we nestle it in with their terrific films:

I guess this can be considered a Monday Mumble?

Not done one for a while due to being beavering away behind the scenes here dealing with more stufff, web stuff, this stuff that stuff and stuff that!

Mentally tiring but hey, this morning it looks like more progress with the ditching of the problem security software and a nicer, kinder, more considerate replacement installed.

So...the logon issues that have affects everyone, yes including us, whould now be gone.

If not we diagnosed wrong but I doubt it as no email notices in our inbox and the site is speedier already so...added to my recent facelift and the new app, shopping with us, or just coming to us should be even nicer now! :P

Onwards and upwards then, building our Google status from the ground up YET AGAIN. Perhaps we can get somewhere this time and hold position...recommendations and reviews will help us too.

So now, a couple of interesting things to post about but first I must do some product photos!

Thanks for sticking with is through all these things guys, you have no idea how much we appreciate it.

Our beautiful Nikon F2 just listed. This one's a real stunner, we don't expect it to hang around for very long at all!

Righty...after a productive meeting on Wednesday and a lot of website work.

Trust me, running even one website is like constipation: the thief of time!

Anyway, our web guy will be removing the security software that has been the cause of all the logging in issues.

Wordfence will be no more, replaced with something less harmful and will make the site faster too.

I know you guys love a bit of a then & now...

So here's just that with the affable and legendary Louise Aitken-Walker.

1990 and 2024

How well film preserves....

Well first glimpse from behind that gorgeous Nikon 28mm f2 is simply amazing!

Gobsmacked

Now the reason I ask if anyone fancied a Nikon F2....and hey, look at that lens ;-)

Ooops, I should have updated this product photo long ago!

My bad.

Anyway, this is another product we caused and since it's introduction it's become a best seller.

Another fantastic product from our guys, so good in fact it's been a game changer for people with particlate water conditions especially in London.

I think a lot of us have elderly relatives don't we?

And these most important of people often need some help, assistance and looking after and it's that which has put us back this time.

One of us last week had to travel to the other side of the country to sort out some stuff for Mum you see, so that was half our manpower gone for a few days.

Right now, we're working extremely hard to catch up with anything that is delayed as well as to manage the ongoing things and other things that we're working desperately hard on...

A very lovely example of one of the more sought after Olympus wide angles...

I think our price is pretty good for a lens of this ilk in this condition ;-)

https://ntphotoworks.com/product/olympus-28mm-f2-8-zuiko-auto-w-lovely-condition-wide-angle/

Got a rather unusual bit of OM fit glass about to be listed in the same category.

Mmmm....any Nikon F2 fanciers out tthere?

There is a reason I ask ;-)

More product photo updating...my own fault, I changed the label on this one!

I'll add a few samples even one from back when we started doing Vision films back in 2014. Look how bare the shop was then! :D

..and don't forget, proper ECN2 procssing done here (before anyone else did it ;-) )

Herding cats...

Machines Rock? Not when you're talking websites! Your work is never done when you have a commercial website...here's a quick peek at our latest facelift at NTphotoworks.comThere's so much work goes into thi...

Just a quickie...

How many of you using our mobile app?

More "It's like herding cats" work on the website...which now has had quite a facelift and a few tweaks. We hope you find them to be nicer as we do...

The meeting with our web guy this morning should see the security software that has caused the logon issues (and more) gone.

"Industry standard" it may be, good it is not so that will be replaced forthwith and the site mirrored to to other servers for greater protection and speed enhancement.

We're still battling with other unfair stuff (namely Google) and you guys can actually help if you wanted to?

Review products, share links to them anythng postiive like that helps our site pop it's head up and tell the US corporates who seem to rule the world now: "Hey look....we are here you know!"

It's a bonkers world out there...and it just never seems to settle, we can see also that others (in our business) are suffering the same fate.

So, here's a few memes that sum a little of it up as far as we're concerned...if only life could be simple!!

More "It's like herding cats" website work on our day off...

New front end banner took all day so far! :D

Let me know if there are any issues with it please, Cheeers!!

Got a bit of a glut of UV & Skylight filters.

So, I'm going to list the branded ones at £3.00 - £4.00 each should anyone want one.

https://ntphotoworks.com/product/branded-used-uv-skylight-filters/

Here's a sneaky look at the behind the scenes of the email marketing plug in we're trying to get the hang of.

I believe that a few of you will be getting this one!

Be patient with me, learning this stuff means one thing but compiling a "campaign" is like herding cats so I'm trying to be as professional as possible!

For those of you who haven't subscribed then get to it, sign up or you risk missing out on some offers and deals we're thinking about.

You'll also miss out on a giveaway we have in mind to celebrate our forthcoming 12th birthday ;-)

Subscribing to our newletter thing WILL bring benefits!

Don't forget to give our app a go!

I'm considering another upgrade so this amazing Pentax Green Star 300mm f2.8 can be had now.

A rare lens this is a gorgeous bit of kit, incredibly sharp and recently serviced by our genius engineer.

You will however be looking into a four figure sum for this fantastic lens. (inc taxes of course!)

The packaging may not look so impressive but the product is very impressive!

https://ntphotoworks.com/product-category/darkroom-supplies/shanghai-photo-papers/

A good saving over others but every bit as good.

A damp squib of a day leaves you feeling like a damp squib doesn't it?

Anyway, it's kinda nice to wind down a little :-)

Good news! We're actually excited about this product....

Our order from the orient is to be dispatched on Monday so the new Lucky SHD100 in 35mm should be with us around this time next week.

We're opening up the listing for pre-orders:

https://ntphotoworks.com/product/lucky-shd100-black-white-film-35mm-36-exposures/

Having shot some in 120 (see that listing) and found that it's a bloody good film. So good this makes it perhaps the best value 100asa film currently on the market so we're very keen to get this out there!

Bellini Foto will soon be on the case too as we're send then several test rolls of this and Shanghai GP3 for scientific testing and establishment of development times. A brilliant idea I think you'll agree ;-)
