    Re: Issue with film holder

    Excellent, thanks for the advice. I think when this kind of stuff happens I'm using front rise/fall every time. Will check it out with/without movements and hopefully can find the culprit.

    Re: 8x10 Tripod.

    For my Deardorff I had an Induro C413 and it was great. A little heavy, but it did the job. I now have an Induro AT313 for my 4x5 and I think 8x10 would work well on that too.

    Canson Platine Fibre Rag is my all time favorite paper! Museo Silver is the same as the platine. It reminds me of silver gelatin paper. Also Canson Baryta is a great one as well.
