    Hi,

    I tried rodinal for several 4x5 sheets (Delta 100) and 120 (FP4 and Delta 100) and I found the result too grainy for my taste. I switched to D76, as it was said very difficult to mix, once the...

    I use regularly a Nikon 5.6/240 on my Chamonix 45, with maximum bellow extension. The tripod will likely waver before the Chamonix.

    Re: Tachihara 4x5: pinholes in bellows

    I changed the belows of my Tachi last year.
    It's ok, you need to "razor" the old below and fix the new one with glue.

    I order from camerabellows.com, they know the exact size.

    Re: Rodenstock or Schneider 90?

    Hi Sheldon,

    That's correct, I (wearing glasses) find difficult to focus and get regularly out-of-focus or un-sharp pictures. I do not have this problems with other Rodenstock 75 and 150.
