Hi Ralph,
Haven't settled on an exact location yet. The thought is to see where most folks get rooms. When Bruce and Richard did the Fine Focus workshops they gathered in the Motel 6 parking...
Please see the new thread regarding the Bruce Barlow Memorial weekend to be held in Brattleboro, VT the weekend of October 26th. Hope you can join us.
Ordered my copy today. Looking forward to the education this book will provide. Thanks for writing it Sandy!
Folks,
We would like to invite all LF photographers to join in a celebration of Bruce Barlow's life. The plan is to gather in Brattleboro, VT., hand out maps with photo destinations listed along...
I had the opportunity to see John's work along with Tillman Crane's at the Stanhope and Spencer gallery last month. Both artist's images are worth the time and effort to attend.
I received the following e-mail last evening from Bruce's son, Evan:
This is a difficult email to write and, I’m sure, a difficult email to read.
It’s my unfortunate responsibility to share...
I'm still in the Azo/Amidol camp....
If you are fortunate enough to get your hands on some Azo, there is the Azo forum located at:

Math major or Engineer?
My issue with tripods is I'm 6'6". Had a Zone VI small tripod and it was too darn short. Had a Zone VI large tripod and it was too darn heavy. I settled on Ries J tripods. You can order varying...
Yes. Bruce's work was published in View Camera magazine back in spring 2004.....
Ease of changing from horizontal to vertical.
Ability to have custom modifications to the camera.
Richard Ritter made my 7x17 for me. As I was thinking of 8x20, Richard suggested I purchase an...

I don't believe the Pro 4000 is a printer available in the USA. However, I use Jon Cone's B&W Piezography inks in my Epson K3 printers. The website is www.inkjetmall.com As suggested above, if you...
Ken, I know this is too late for you, but you can purchase a refurbished 3880 from Epson for $849 here:

I'm scanning with an Epson 11000XL and find if I use Scotch Removable Tape #811 to tape the negatives emulsion side up to the glass the auto focus of the 11000XL does the trick.
Ken,
You can purchase an ink assembly which includes the dampers. It's available from CompassMicro.com The part # is 1607156 and the price is $176.20 + Shipping. While you are in there, you might...
The REAL problem, as I see it, is a newbie shooting Super XX. Just put the film up for sale on ebay and buy yourself a Ferrari with the proceeds. :cool:
Good luck with your film scratches. I know...
Harry, I don't know what Epson will replace the 3880 with. I got my info on its discontinuance here:...
You need to be aware that Epson is discontinuing the 3880. B&H has them with a $300 rebate that ends on 3/31. I'm sure others also have them, but Epson shows them as out of stock. These are...
My darkroom work leans heavily toward Azo/Amidol. For inkjet I like Cone Type 2 (matte) with Cone Warm Neutral inks
I'll second that.....anyone who would travel to Kiev in February for snow and ice photos needs their head examined :-)
Film and 5 1/4" Floppy disks.....what more could you ask?????
Sandy,
Thanks just the same. I'm just getting started with scanning 7x17 and 8x10 negatives, using Photoshop and printing with K6 & K7 on Epson R3000 and 3880. Hadn't tried the Red River papers...
Sandy,
Are you using K7 for your glossy monochrome prints? If yes, do you have a printer profile for the Red River Ultra Glossy paper you'd be willing to share?
Many thanks,
John
Vaughn,
The largest paper I could use in my 8x20 contact printer is 8.75x21. However, note Alistair indicates he can custom make you any size so perhaps a 14x17 or 16x20 will work for you if the...
Oh yeah, for those of you using alt processes, my latest luxury is one of these: http://www.lightmeasure.com/
It arrived yesterday...
Vaughn, I'll measure mine this evening and get back to you. I shoot 7x17, but purchased the 8x20 contact printer because I have a stash of 8x20 Lodima and cut my 20x24 Azo down to 8x20.
Ah, Darkroom luxuries....

Coulda sworn TF5 was formulated by APUG's PE (aka Ron Mowry). I've used TF5 ever since they introduced it. Wonderful stuff with Pyro negatives. It works as advertised.
