First post since 2012, and I haven't been truly active in LF photography since 2006. Nostalgia brought me back to these forums this morning, and I'm thrilled to see so much sustained activity here...

Thank you all for your quick help (this group never fails to impress!). I also received a suggestion from Duggal to run an initial sheet with a one-step push. I'll repost with the results *crosses...

I'll need to send it out for processing via mail (Duggal etc.), so I'm hesitant to go through the motions if there's no hope. If I do, I plan to ask for a test sheet initially rather than the whole...

Hello everyone-

I just discovered a box containing an unknown number of Velvia sheets exposed (I believe) back in 2006 (!) but not yet developed. They've been stored down in a chilly garage...

Thought I'd chime in a little late from Moscow. Usually I spend my summers elsewhere (Yellowstone for wildlife research); this'll be my first summer in the area. I've been hoping to explore some...

Hmmm. The Lake is huge and largely surrounded by burned lodgepole forest, which can make things challenging. I hiked around it last year (well, at least the un-roaded portion ;), from the E...

Hi Stephen-

Beautiful country! I lived near Gunnison CO several summers ago, and now work in YNP. A side trip on your way to Grand Junction would be the Maroon Bells near Aspen... cliched...

If you are feeling weighed down by the Cambo viewer, I'd be MORE THAN happy to take it off your hands :). Consider it a charitable donation to a starving student. Good luck w/ your search!

Weird. Just what you wanted to hear, huh? :) I've never used the premixed version, but I did have some problems with the dry ingredient kit a while back (see apug post). Considering that it was...

Interesting comments, Martin.

I did have a third image printed along with those already mentioned, this one only on Silver Rag. The image contains three yellow flowers in full sunlight against a...

This is to follow up on John Brownlow's more B&W-oriented user report for Silver Rag... hopefully those looking into color prints will find the following useful.

I just received two copies each of...

Hi Ben-

I live down in Moscow, ID, which I suppose is 'near' Spokane by E. WA standards. Right now I'm using a relatively new Cambo 45N monorail. It's a far cry from a 45SU, but the basic view...

I recently purchased a minty 45NX (no accessories) for $275 on ebay. My guess would be that the value of the kit depends largely on the construction, coating, and mintiness of the lens: I have a...

Thank you all for your help! In the back of my mind I suspected that all the back-and-forth that goes on about various developers and film has merit but may be too anal-retentive for what I'm...

Hopefully this is a little more specific than the usual 'What should I start with?' question (although not by much). I've spent several years using 35mm Velvia while backpacking and want to try out...

Thanks everyone for your input.

Considering the number of superb photographers successfully shooting and scanning chromes, my suspicion is that the limited exposure latitude of reversal film is at...

I am new to LF, but I suppose my questions here deal with film selection generally. I plan to develop my own B&W sheet film and send out for transparency processing, but then scan in either type at...
