Hi Greg,

I had a talk with the company where I bought the anti Newton glass. In the end I trusted their advice (http://www.kienzle-phototechnik.de/home_english/home_english.html). I left the glass...

The drum needs around 300 ml to 1000 ml of liquid to work...

Plane of focus: This is a problem with the V750. I got my first one replaced by...

Which side of the neg do you put on the scanner glass? In my experience the emulsion side gives less trouble with newton rings. To keep the film flat I put a second anti newton glass on top of the...

Hi,

I plan to change the scanner glass in my Epson V750 to an anti newton glass, because I use it only to scan 8x10 inch film. I found the attached drawing. I guess no. 109 is the scanner glass,...

Hi Alessandro,

1. Usually the 405 Polaroid back comes with a mask to indicate, what will be on the image. It is not centered.
2. To use the 405 Polaroid back in landscape mode you have to remove...

I should have read this thread before.

I get the same spots with XTOL 1:1 and Fomapan 400. I'm going to try pure water as stop bath the next time. I only use demineralized water for everything and...

Thank you for the tip. Now I googled and found Fomapan 400 sheet film. The shops where I buy my film only sell Fomapan 400 in 35mm and 120 rolls. But now I found a shop which sells sheets too.

Hi,

I store and transport my Sinar 8x10 p2 in the medium size Sinar case (36x46x59 cm or 14.1x18.1x23.2 in). So far I only manage to put the camera, a wide angle bellow and a rail extension into...
