Thanks very much for the photo of the rollers. Now I know what it looks like back there and that it's a known issue (and not due to the NYC to LA UPS shipping as my original box came all mangled in...
I decide to practice on an existing negative carrier in which the hole was worn down to the aluminum (from carrying the carrier around with aa finger).

Thanks Doremus. Sounds like a plan.

Hey ic-racer I have the Pro Lab D5500 enlarger too. Nice enlarger though somehow one of the internal rubber rollers rotted away years ago. I converted it into a "cold light head" with some flashed...
Thanks for the link. I watched the video. That guy has a really advanced shop. My shop is at the very beginning stages - not there yet. :o
Hello, thanks for your input.
My lone Saunders negative carrier is definitely are anodized.
My Omega carriers look like a really nice paint job. (not 100% sure though).
These are really...
Hi, guys anyone out there familiar with the type of black paint used on the top coat of modern Omega negative carrier for 4x5 enlargers? (ie, flat back, ultra flat black, satin, etc .) I assume it's...

I no longer photograph cemetaries or memorials or in or near them. Based on experience. As to "why not?" My shortest explanation: "Choose Life"
I remember as while back he was contemplating destroying all of his negatives. I hope he reconsidered. I'm sure hes got a great body of work in his negatives and hope a home can be found for them....

B&H was selling off the 8 Element Nikkon 120 f8 SW for $999. Fortunate to be able to buy one. Sharp as a razor with huge image circle.
A Mamiya lens tech once told me air flow is very important. I also us a small Germ Guardian UV sanitizer in my storage space that runs daily on a timer. I am blessed to live in year round arid...
If only Sekonic made the screen with the same hard scratch resistant glass the Apple and Samsung use for their smart phones.
I had a chance to buy a brand new Rodenstock Apo Sironar S 360 lens from Calumet in 2010 for $1400 and I let it slip away at last minute. Still kicking myself over that one.
I think one has to be practical about tripod placement with $10,000 worth of gear potentially taking a soak.
Storage condition key. Cool, dry, airflow
Thank you for the medical report, Mr. Lincoln. I am sure Mary Todd is pleased!
I know moderating must be tough thankless task. I use both this site and APUG. I noticed a change in tone of this site over the years, so I use APUG mostly. I wonder if we here at LF forum are...
Is there any modern 12x24 camera that can be oriented to shoot vertical orientation with front lens rise to shoot something like the Flatiron bldg in NYC etc etc?
Paul, thanks for the info. Now everyone's commen above falls in to place. So photographic film dimensions are all standardized to slightly smaller than nominal.
Len, and everyone else. Thanks for info. I will double check when I make actual decision whether or not to get in to the format.
Hello,
I am interested in getting in to ULF Panoramic photography eventually. I am looking at the 12x20 format. I know film for the Ultra Large Formats must be special ordered once a year.

Hello, a buddy of mine on Facebook put up some pics of Hoover dam which looks awesome.
I guess the water is low due to drought etc etc which added to the images.
How does one go about getting...
Here's some 50 year old, unrefrigerated Kodak Plus X I shot
Wow Ed, you have some serious enlarging lenses there
OK Sal, thanks. Can't wait to try it.
Hey , remember a while back when we all bought a copy of Nikon 120 AM ED macro lens just because B&H was selling them dirt cheap? I read about Sal S. Suggesting this lens can be used as a superior...
Hey Vinny, thanks for the info.
I passed up some massive EFKE 8x10 IR820 on Ebay almost three years ago but got a nice slice of the guy's 4x5. He was out of Florida or Connecticut somewhere back...

Dave, I would love to join you, but I will probably be on an adventure to Canada, Maine and Upstate NY.
On our May trip to lone pine that Sunday a.m. I did some exploring heading driving 18...
I bet it is a relief you figured things out. Yeah, my gut reaction was to say the condensers. But then since its a diffusion enlarger, I did not think it had condensers so I didn't say anything.
...
I believe some guys on this forum could solve this in seconds if you posted 3 or 4 different cell phone snaps of your enlarger as it is set up, including the illumination pattern on the underside of...
does it have a 35mm mixing box installed?
Great Landscapes Tim.
Nice shot. Including the road gives the eye something to follow and provides scale for the huge mtns in background.

I am running mine on Windows 8.1
