Hello all,
My wife is part of the above art show and we are one of five photographers. According to the brochures, she will be the only one with ambrotypes, albumen prints. So if you are in the...
exactly what CG stated. I use a 15w bulb and a on/off switch for modern silver paper. A higher bulb is used for the silver chloride contact paper. Sunlight or UV lights for my salt, cyanotype,...
There is always the possibility that the date on the lens indicates that a repair had to be made at a later date. So the lens was made in the early 1860s but then something happened in the late...
leon,
Glad I could help. I build tube amps as another hobby and electricity hurts, learned that by grabbing live wires and another time by grabbing the wrong end of the soldering iron...ok in...
how are your schematic, electrical, voltmeter and soldering skills? :)
you will need soldering gun, solder, voltmeter and schematics for the enlarger.
I do not assume any risk if you follow...
Ok dont normally do this and no affiliation to the sellor but there is a 48" f/6.3 Aero for sale in Germany.

Check out the size...
I just took a look at their blog. As of 1 June ADOX had the systems installed and are in the processof checking them out, making sure everything is going to turn on when they flip the switch.
...
ahh but those oil filled caps sound so wonderful in a tube amp...wait wrong hobby...dammit! :D

Frank,
Definitely take a look at the Wista then (Gem Singer suggestion) or a Speed, maybe even a linhof if you want to spend the $$. The toyo cannot be folded w/ a lens attached. Well I guess it...
Frank,
I use two AX 4x5s, non-revolving backs. I use a 300mm fuji lens on mine (freakin tank) down to a 90mm.
Short version I really like the AXII. Is it the best one, hard to say. I've used...
ok...here is the smart ass way of finding your answer. Trust me, I had this sent more than once...I am a slow learner.

All in good fun.

ahh Denmark, then you definitely know the German aversion towards CCs. If you live that close and you know the hotel you will be staying at, buy the film and have it shipped to the hotel. I've done...
Wife and I were are just starting our voyage in collodion and I have an old '77 Series III LandRover...match made in heaven as far as packing stuff into it and turning the back into a portable dark...
This shop is not in Berlin but they do deliver very fast so if you are in a hotel for more than 2-3 days, it will be on your doorstep.

I kind of agree with the lack of similarities btwn 120/220 and large format film. It can be processed the same, but the HOW is different.
My experience, started w/ 35mm played with 120 and a long...
ahh didnt think of the radio shack option. We have a Conrad's up the street from where I live, think of Conrads as the electronics store that Radio Shack wants to be. I can buy tubes for my stereo,...
Jan,
Thank you for the vote of no confidence. I was looking at the Kaiser, just didnt want to drop $90. Been looking at the big dial analogs and of course found a digital at B&H but out of...
Kev,
Thanks will take a look, do you use this thermometer?
./e
vague silhouette, 'looked' good took a chance, my suggestion dont do it. Dont f*ck with Karma, her sisters Luck and Fate are usually very close and you just dont need that type of exposure.

Karma is a BITCH...I've met her :p
you will get yours

Ok, the eye doc cracked a few jokes at my expense during my last checkup. Asked me if I play the trombone?...Uh no, why? You know when you read, she then made the sliding motion with her hand and...
hopefuly not too late. here is a company I've dealt with multiple times:

Also, I have had film developed by a number of labs w/in Germany and here is a bit of advice....
So i searched on the forum and didnt seem to find any information on CLA'ing a Studio 5 other than to send it off and paying a bit of dosh. Eager to do this myself and not afraid of taking it apart...
Garrett,
Is that 35mm container the same style prop I saw in Hollywood as a kid? You know the 38 special revolver that is the size of a VW Beetle? :-)
Big and small stuff...I just feel...
Sandy,
I agree w/ Marko memory is key for a hog like photoshop. Take a look at www.macsales.com (no affiliation just a customer) and see what their memory upgrader states. Secondly, take a look...
I've had mine since '03 or '04 and if you had asked about 12 weeks ago it would have been, "trouble free", it just died. While we had it and used it, worked like a champ. When it died, it went...
Vaughn/Sandy or anyone who knows,
I've never seen a carbon print before and am interested in this process as well. I'm going to be in the Baltimore area for a few weeks, do any of the...
Sapata,
You will need a platter can be thin plexi or metal. The platter is used to take up the slack space so your film will lay flat in the holder. You do not want to use a "glue" to adhere...
so let me get this right. Someone is going to try and bring back Polaroid 55 B&W film? I checked out the blog but am not seeing what the actual intentions are, schedule (I know early in the game). ...
Another option is Canadian balsam, but it probably doesnt dry as fast as the 'magic' glue.
No matter how you slice it, you brought back a great old lens, awesome job Eddie.

Too cool! get to see what's in other people's cabinets!
I have 3 fairly old lenses. Two are Jamin-Darlot cones 9" and 13" respectively. The 9" glass has 1860 on the glass and the 13" has 1862...
On film curling almost all of the Efke, rollei, foma films curl like mad. On the better scanning product with these curly films, lots of aggravation. some of the films curl so strongly they...
used to be a pilot in a former life and I have used Oakely, Ray Ban, Maui Jim, Varnette, Smith's, Military issue (cant remember their name but a big name and still have tons of them around the house)...
The arista film is cheap enough that you can learn techniques and not hit your pocket book hard. My suggestion, shoot lots of film, same film, use the same developer and get consistent/expected...
Another option that really surprised me is found on Freestyle's site...they are selling a silver chloride contact paper made by Foma. I think it is 'model' 312. the downside, it is matte only in...
Sandy,Rick,Heroique, everyone; AWESOME! Thank you very much, that is a savings of at least $300!
Just need to drop an order! Not looking forward to spending the dosh but...it is getting harder...
Sandy, or anyone used seen both...
Thank you for the advice. In your mind does the anti-reflective and better mirror material found on the 750 warrant the added price?
./e
Rick
Thank you for that idea and we have been kicking it around as well. It will take us a bit of time to figure out what type of scanner to get (film, flatbed, drum). by a bit of time I think...
Sandy,
thank you for information. I thought I had read the glass was different in the two systems but couldn't find it again so I thought I had dreamed it up.
In your opinion, bearing in...
