I forgot to add.... If you are going to make your own foot switch, there are 2 possible configurations... NO and NC. I have had 2 of these timers, one used a NO connection, the other a NC...
My unit has the foot switch on the left, thermocouple on the right.
I remember not being able to tell which was which when I got my unit.... I pougged them in wrong and nothing bad happened. (...
Sexton used the Slosher design for long development times in very dilute developer. It was / is not a mainstream developing method for him. He uses a JOBO processsor these days of most of his work.
Michael had a good idea, which I would like to expound on.... If you use ANY lens that covers the format, then use filter rings or lens shades to vignette the image, you get the best of both worlds....
You realize that most Nitrogen burst tanks are 3 1/2 gallon.... That is a LOT of pyro, since it is a 1 shot developer...... I thought about using it for HC110, with replenisher.... it is much less...
Why not use TMY? Tri-X, HP5+, Arista 400, or some other nominal ASA400 speed film? Yes, we all understand the demands of a constantly moving wiggle worm!
Jim Galvin passed away recently.
I have a Toyo LB that accepts Linhof LB. If you want to see what it looks like, please ask....Email me directly

You might want to talk to Grimes first.... the choice of a shutter is not so easy. These lenses are pretty huge.
I have a TK45 and a 110 SS XL lens. The lens works great with nothing special. BUT if you want to apply any movements, and especially if those movements are dramatic, get the bag bellows. There...
Whenever choosing a backpack of any purpose, the first consideration should be fit. How well does this pack fit my body? Does it fit the size of my back? Will the weight of what is inside bother...
This is TOTALLY unfair.
I had a Beseler 45 which I sold for an Omega D2. I sold the Omega D2 for an Omega D5. I sold the Omega D5 for an Saunders 4500.
Now you may have a replacement head for...
It is doubtful that you will be able to tell of any effect. Be cautious.... If you are concerned of the results, get rid of it. Your bias about the lens will affect you more than test results will.
The issue is not the scratch itself, but your reaction to the scratch. If it upsets you enough that you are not going to use the lens, at any price, get rid of it. Either return it to the seller,...
I was last in Samys about a year ago. They had an Ebony or 2 "hanging around". I do not know of another store that has any, locally. BTW, did you speak to Frank at Samys? He is the LF guy......
The factors between the 210 and 240 are a mathematical and physics solution. In other words, they are correct. If you think otherwise by looking through the glass, go right ahead. Let me suggest...
You can do what you wish. There is a correction factor of 1/3 of a stop. The 240 len is 1/3 of a stop more closed down than indicated. ie, When using the 240 in this instance, if the iris says F11,...
Samy's has had them in stock... Samys in Fairfax area.
There is a difference... as I understand it at Monument Valley, you may drove on your own at prescribed hours and on the roads. No overnights. TRake a guide with you and you have lots of other...
I have no idea how your friend is enlarging Full Frame 4x5 negs in thie Beseler 2x3 enlarger. However, you state he is doing it. The Beseler 45 is for 4x5 negs, the 23 is for 2x3 negs. If you want...
The Beseler 23C is a 6x9cm ( 2 1/4 x 3 1/4 inch) enlarger. You would need a Beseler 45. The really good news is that with patience, and a bit of luck, you will find that enlarger for sale in your...
Myrick's in Monterey carries LF film. Call them in advance if you want to be sure, and I am sure they would hold anything for you ( if you pay for it in advance!). Steve Myrick is a very nice...
Mission San Miguel is closed because of the earthquake damage it suffered recently.
Steve.. do you have contact info on Mr. Cly?

The ShenHao back doesn't rotate but is very easy to snap off and reattach in a vertical orientation. "
You have not lived until you try to take a camera that has T+S,...
The Tachihara has a rotateable back. I do not know about the Shen Hao. Most wood field cameras from modern vintage also offer this feature.
The comment about files is really appropriate. They are all over the place. Here is the problem..... you are NOT a normal photographer. YOu use a tripod, take forever to set up a shot, and carry...
Sexton will take you on a 1 day trip to Point Lobos. The shots are mostly near the water, so the restricitons on walking all over will be pretty much a no issue.
In the area, go to the Carmel...
There are many specific chemical formulations of foam. Personally, I have had some that disintegrate when touched by certain plastics, others that slowly decay and "crumble" , some have outgassed...
New books... Chris Woodhouse and Ralph Lambert's new book and Barry Thornton's most recent book.... I am indeeed lucky....
I also feel rather sad as Thornton, Grimes are no longer with us and...
OK.. Nothing seems to have changed....
I will repeat myself just to be sure... Same enlager and bulb and head and settings and power supply Same negatives Same paper from same box Same developer...
I guess you are discounting my previous reply on maybe the current resultsyou are getting sound right. I also guess you are printing at F8 ( 2 stops down from F4.)
There are only a few things...
The lens, wide open is a F4. I just made some full frame 8x10 from 4x5 negs ( #2 contrast) on my Saunders 4500 with a Componon S 150/5.6. The times were 8.5 seconds at F8. For F4, this would be...
What you are asking for is called a STEP WEDGE/ It is made at least by Stouffer, and is sold in a few camera shops ( at best a few...).... I suggest... http://www.bostick-sullivan.com/ I tried to...
Can you tell us all how to contact Rodenstock and Linhof to arrange a plant tour? Address and Phone numbers too?
Nikon also made them ..... I guess because of the Nikkor LF lenses.
As a subset of this question, how is Pyrocat with a JOBO processor? Does it require a 2 bath development ( oxidation/exhaustion issue) or is OK with a single development step?
They are out of business. I bought, from Joe Salthill himself, one of the washers. He was moving from NYC, and cleaned out a "closet" where he found several items.
In years past, I had heard that Zeiss mirror lenses ( Mirrotar?) would cover 6x6cm. Not exactly LF... About the largest coverage I have heard about......
As someone noted, there is the...
