Just downloaded the app - works great with Foma 100 - but the Tri-x times are totally wrong: they are like the T-Max400 ones. Is this a bug and are you planing to fix this? otherwise great app! (and...
if the framer sugest cutting an artwork/ photo in half i'd never would him in any means even come near to any work - never!
No way, that is the most ridiculus thing i've ever heard. Send the framer...

!!great post!!!:cool:
this should be helpfull:)
It's a Super Chromega E Dichroic II - the 1980-90's version of the collor head.
And it has got a shutter with a electro magnet - you can hear the "clack" when you switch on the light.
Its not...
Thanks for the feedback -
that is an interesting diagramm IC - but because I'm in Germany it needs to have a second transformer from 220 to 110 volt - I figured out by now... makes it even more...
Hello everybody,
my Durst 138 is equipped with a Super Chromega E Dichroic II head - it is a fine working unit but the Power supply I had for it was just borrowed.
Need to give it back, so I'm...
GREAT! here is somebody who understands his job! It is really nothing overly complicated and done in almost any outdoor fashion/ editorial shooting.
Get out and experiment - it's funm and you learn...
Same here, the film will touch the ribs and you'll have even lines from less staining at that part (that is on the back of the negative...):(
Tanol Speed is what I used. Quite annoing, a 3005 is...
that is one great machine! full of respect, tuco!
Great piece of gear, this is my favorite enlarger so far.
Rugged, extremely well build and very comfortable in adjusting it to your height, you can do dodging from the sides and large prints are...
Valuabale Information everybody! Thanks.
I now made a new scale doing the eyeballing evaluation from the front and will shoot a couple of sheets to see if it is precise enough. But, well, the...
Helen, that is very helpfull!
I spend a whole afternoon trying to get my head around this issue - and suspected this conclusion. just wasn't sure.
So of to start shooting with the new lens - I...
Hello all,
so finaly I mounted the 150mm Sironar lens cells I bought for cheap in a Compur shutter - but I am a bit puzzled how to measure the new f-stop scale needed. so the question is:
the...
This s great information! Thanks for sharing.
loved the "Rolls Royce and Ferarri combined" quote from the Portland website.
A true perverse hybrid;)
Great responses! I just e-mailed Wolfgang Moersch to ask him is any of his staining devs is suitable with Foma 100. Will share the wisdom...
Like Vlad I had nice results with R09/ Rodinal, but...
Thanks Sandy and Vlad, very insightfull overview!
To be honest, mixing my own chemicals would be a bit much at the moment, and I prefer using "ready made" things, getting lost in tinkering far to...
Hi there!
I am looking for a developer for my 200+ sheets of Foma 100 in 4x5 for using in a rotary Jobo CPE.
The Foma 100 builds up density quite fast, so far I manged to get nice negs with...
Looks more like development error to me. Or some light leak, because hazed or foged lenses do look different, they tend to blow out the highlights (at least with my old Summar). If you shoot the ok...
So it works as some sort of spot meter? Interesting!
If so: How large is the area you meter then - i asume the lens on the G4 is a moderate wide-angle - how would that measured area translate to...
thanks for the comments so far! seems like I need to get one of those gadgets of contemporary life.
It seems to be a bit strange to schlep that ancient analogue gear around and meter with a...
Hi there!
sorry if this was discussed before but I would like to know if an Iphone g4 can be used as a lightmeter? if so how precise is it and is of any use in the field?
I know it is not a...
IC, I don't know, I thought of using it as a loupe, but it's to heavy for that... and it is so well build I can't really justify it selling it - over here in germany they go for 15 - 30 euros,...
Better late than never, I thought I keep you updated on my quest for a LAPLA 58: Well, I found a nice and clean 210mm Rodagon which came with a Durst 58mm lensboard! and this for 12 Euro plus...
I read somewhere that this can be caused by to much iron in your tapwater: the tiny iron particles rect with the silver on the neg and leave thise tiny dots. Try googling for "Iron" and "Xtol".
To...
There are still some in every large city - to walk in. Just google "Fachlabor" + the city you're in!
Here in Berlin for example there are larger labs like Pixelgrain or PPS, some say best B/W and...
Wow, get to know your enlarger: IC's coment about different mixing boxes still in my backhead I opened the flap on the front -which was a bit stuck- and voilá: a E-E mixing box appeared. So a smaller...
IC - sorry, I had a wrong memory here - it is a E Dichroic II - and its mounted on the Durst directly above the neg. carrier, so no changing of the mixing box is possibel - or is there. They are...
You are maybe right, maybe it is better to look out for a good 2.8 80mm lens which performs well at 5.6 (thats where the Rokkor is mighty fine for 35mm work). Any suggestions on this topic? -...
Thanks Don for the link! That clears the fog... finally a source for the description of all those funny Ikea-like names Durst liked to give.
Although - this vendor has got some ridicolous prices...
Hi Gandolfi that is graet! Three 138's is quite something...
Sorry, I don't have a photo of the LATUB and the information about it is quite sparce on the net... it should look like a recesssed...
Hello everybody1
for enlarging 35 mm negs on my Durst 138 I am looking for one of the dreaded LATUB lens mounts.
I use the older 138 modell with the fixed TRIPLA.
Ha anybody, preverably over...
John: that sounds great! I would be definately be in, just to test that beauty!
Ic's comments are always very apreciated. No fancy focuser though, just that always darkening Patterson ...

Erie: already did that... And a spanner wrench is long on my whish list. Maybe it's time to get one and clean this half a dozen lenses which are liyng around since I developed a serious GAS syndrome...
Oh Boy, that was what I suspected. I should ask you guys here before buing.
Well, it didn't cost an arm and a leg, and is as I said a really beatifully made lens. I might try to make a lensboard...
Hi everybody!
I just acquired a nice Rodenstock Rodagon R 210mm 5.6 enlarging lens for my Durst 138.
I was searching the web but couldn't find anything on the "R" designation of this lens. the...
I was washing the ground glass and Fresnel like my dishes in warm to hot water with a little amount of soap/ dishes cleaner. Worked perfect and was one of the best advises I read here!
