Yes it does, it's fairly obvious how and easily done, so I won't write a description. Handle with care as always.
I'm far from expert, but Disk Warrior straightened out a messy Leopard set of problems. I have no experience with Lion, currently I'm using Snow Leopard (and sticking with it)
The site says that...
Who is Moby?
You have a point, but I bought the RH timer after using a long list of kitchen timers, speaking timers (for total darkness) and 2 of those Paterson Triple timers, both of which failed after about 6...
RH Designs Process timer: excellent. Two options for display brightness, I do put under the bench when tray processing, but probably not necessary.
My only criticism: when in run on mode you need...
Didn't you read my post?
Serve you right, thanks for helping to pay my pension.
Completely lost interest when Mac compatibility was ignored. No I'm not going to pay out for an iPhone either, I'm interested in analogue photography, not fooling about with endlessly updated...
As I said in June last year. Unfortunately it didn't stop the flow of verbal diarrhea.
Will we ever see a picture? Or is torturing Gordon and Chris better sport?
Michael, you may like to check and compare Vanbar in Melbourne for a small choice of 4x5 film. The problem for us down under with the otherwise great Freestyle is that they only ship via Priority...
I can't speak for their camera bags, but I have one which would take a small laptop and extra bits and pieces. My problem with it is that the material from which it is made is extremely sturdy but...
For heaven's sake; from the book intro (a short quote for discussion purposes, allowed in the copyright regime--I wonder about the copyright of the French site??)

Yeah thanks Frank. To be charitable I guess you forgot the smiley.
Indeed, that's why they were presented in a carefully restored and curated show at the Justice and Police Museum in Sydney from November 2005 to November 2006. A book of the show (ISBN 1 876991 20 8)...
They (the rest of the world) believe that irony is one of those things Americans just don't get.
I was unconvinced, bur I'm given pause.
There was quite a lot of portraiture in Victorian days...
It's mainly because of my cack hands in setting the camera up (tilting the base board and bringing the back and lens to vertical, I know) but I find it quite easy to inadvertently include the base...
Yep, I've done that with my Toyo-View 45CX (the entry level model)
Now I check the lens standard bellows connection closely every time, as I usually separate the two standards for storage.

You may mean DeVere 504?
Try that in your favourite search engine. My 2 cents worth as an owner: built like a brick dunny, professional piece of gear, reliable.
The major variable is the light...
Hi Robert, last time we met was at the Opera House a few months ago.
As a Blue Mountains resident I'm ashamed to say that I haven't pursued the type of shot you seek, but then I'm a dedicated...
Isn't there a tequila called "Two Fingers" or its Spanish equivalent?
Pardon the flippancy, but this was my first thought about dark bags, paper and cutting it inside one. But I have trimmed film...
I've used trays for 4x5" and still do for 5x7". They need a little space though and security of blacking out the room. I moved to Combiplan tanks which to some extent help with the possibility of...
Heavens, what can I say? Probably best to say nothing, I guess.
Best of luck.
I find a reference to kaleidoscope related to vortograph (probably the Vorticist literary movement of the time) so maybe kaleidoscope searches might help.
What was the bearded Ezra Pound doing...
As well as attacking my leg leeches appeared on the bellows of my Shen Hao 5x7. Fortunately there is nothing attractive in the fabric to tempt them to pierce it, but I didn't consider the possibility...
Especially the ones where the poor long suffering young woman subject (and they always seem to be young women) has rested her more sensitive parts (well her "butt" as you Yanks say) on a fiendishly...

Do pardon me for editing your post, but this point caught my eye.
The highest paying photography prize in Australia incorporates (bless their hearts) a schoolkids' section. The pictures that are...
Climate change phenomena.
It won't do anything to change their likelihood, but as with tourist shots (spare me the Sydney Opera House) you can say that you've been there--until you were roasted or...
The only authenticated genuine prints from collodion that I have seen were those from Freeman Studios in Sydney, Australia. They were displayed by the State Library of New South Wales as part of...
That's pretty, damn I wish I had a quarter your skills.
However I cannot see any number 8 fencing wire anywhere in the construction.
Are you sure that you're a Kiwi? :-)

At that price I would expect Liz herself to arrive on the posty's bike!

The dream timer: RH Designs Process Master II. I won't list its virtues, do Google it.
Not really cheap, but perhaps somewhat less than USD 400.

You could approach Mainline in Crows Nest, Sydney.
I've not had LF repairs from them, but their fixit man did a good job on a Voigtlander Prominent (jammed shutter) and Yashicamat (slow shutter)...
I was intending to be self-righteous and to express surprise that anyone could use such an inflammable gas for this purpose, so I grabbed my usual anti-oxidant agent; Tetenal Protectan which is made...
Excellent service from Badger to Australia. From memory they emphasise that they will not partake in any type of less than honest pro forma invoicing. If USPS+ Australia Post are able to detect and...
I thought that was the anti halation layer soaking out--live and learn.

There doesn't seem to be any information regarding whether the 6 sheets were processed together (in a tank perhaps?) or separately (in trays perhaps?)
I sought information about Pyrocat HD...
Do please check out the RH Designs Process Master II:
