Roubaix is a North France city. I attended for the first time this yearly fair and hope to go back there next year. The following pictures are sadly of poor quality but gives an idea of the event.

A 35 mm projector in operation.

The small picture beside the 35 mm one is a digital projection.

From left to right : (all members of this forum of course) Nick, myself, Bruno and Jean-Marc. Jean-Christophe was already gone when we took the pictures but he was there also.

Thank you for the photos!! A very nice souvenir, it was also my first time there, looking the amount and the quality of the films and equipment, it was really a nice surprise!

.Dominique, If these are your poor quality pictures then your best must be astonishing. Only wish my pictures were as good. Looks a fascinating event. Was there plenty of film stuff. Film collector events are always enjoyable. I never miss BFCC. I sometimes think we ought to wear badges so that we can say 'hello' to names we recognise. I reckon I've passed a few by unintentionally that I would have loved to have chatted to had I been aware they were attending

Thank you for the nice comments.

Dave, the small size of the pictures makes probably look them better than what they really are [Smile]
