A note for people using the CL81 for E6 and C41 development. The instruction sheet says that we should leave the center core together with the reel to protect the O-ring. There is a little issue if...
CatLabs CL81 users. How do you unload your developed film from the reel? Do you slide it out the film like how you slide it in or do you bend the sides of the film so that it is "derailed" from the...
I guess reason for using 3 sheets probably come from the design Jobo used in their 2509 holders. The 2509 can hold up to 3 sheets on each side of the reel, having 6 sheets in total on 2 sides. Since...
Great ideal project! I have seen the loading video which is similar to the loading of a Jobo 2509. From the video, the loading seems to be a single handed loading while the other hand holds the end...

Thank you for the comments. In Singapore, most of us live in flats like this and do not have a landed property.

Camera: BJ field 8x10
Lens: Kodak Commercial Ektar 14"
Film: Shanghai 100
Developer: D76 1+1, EI 100
My first few tries using the Kodak Portrait lens. The draw of the image from this lens is very unique compared to commercial ektar.

It took about 15 minutes for most of the blue opacifier to disappear. From the instructions, in 45 minutes, it should be fully developed. However in the development process, you can see how the image...
Finally managed to get hold of the pioneer test film. Sharing an image taken last week. The emulsion is the latest colour protection formula. Film was developed with ambient temperature of 27C. Warm...
Yup, the corners of my ground glass is clipped and I do not understand why is that so.
Thanks! I followed your guide and got the answer. At least its a rough estimate to get things right. I did not realise that there is a linear relationship for IC and distance from lens to film plane....
I got myself a Darlot Petzval 10.5" to use for the 8x10. I understand that the image circle for Petzval design is approximately its focal length, thus 10.5" image circle is not enough for 8x10. Since...
Would like to ask about the FFD. In earlier postings, it is mentioned that the helicoid travel flange distance is 89.5mm to 109mm. For example if I use the Super Angulon f8 (Copal 0) lens with a FFD...
Did Impossible pioneers here got hold of the latest release of their colour 8x10 test film? Looking at the sample photos and news here http://www.polaroid-passion.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=297034....
Thanks everyone for the different methods. I will try each one and see which works well. After which I will mark on the camera to serve as a starting point for me next time!
Finding the optical center seems ok with a cylinder tube extended from the rear element. However for parallelism I do not have a very good method. Currently, I am using visual judgement against...
I have recently gotten a B&J 8x10 field camera. There seemed to be no "zero" markings on the camera to denote where is the center point (or optical axis) between the front and the rear standard. And...
Some updates since I last posted.
I would like to share a video walkthrough regarding the usage of this film done up recently by a group of enthusiasts.

There is a youtube video here.

I would like to share my post on result of this film. The tones of this film is very good with even emulsion spreading.
