Here's a 'glossary' page I wrote for Camera-wiki on film sheaths; it has a picture. The sheath is just a folded metal holder, that gives your sheet of film the rigidity and thickness to sit in the...

It's an unusual size now. FotoImpex in Germany list Fomapan 100 and Adox CHS100 II (though it's presently shown as sold out) in that size. These are both ISO 100 black-and-white. The Fomapan is...

Most of what I've seen at the museum site is 9x12.

You can see a lot of pictures by Albert Kahn's photographers for Archives du Planète at the collections site of the Albert Kahn Museum. They aren't all Autochrome. They aren't reproduced very large...

If I recall correctly, Paterson tanks use 300ml to cover a single 35mm film, so a three-reel tank must hold at least 900 ml. Each of those reels is (I guess) 40 mm tall. I haven't used a Paterson...

A very sharp change half-way along the picture: as if the left-hand side wasn't in the developer for the whole time.

I'm an (abominably lazy) admin at Camera-wiki. We are a small site, but were developing a large spam problem for our size; enough that most of what the admins were doing on the site was deleting spam...

A coffee filter won't remove the finest suspended solids. Also, unless you cut it into discs and mount it in a holder, you're limited to a rather small depth of water above the filter, so the rate of...

What about a half-cheat: you could step past the starch part of the project (at least for now). It ought to be possible to prepare an image consisting of random coloured dots in three colours, and...

There's this guy:

Autochromes contemporains by Frédéric Mocellin. Found him while looking for things to link from our short article on Autochrome at Camera-wiki.

Not really for LF, but I've come across sets of 'focusing lenses', i.e. auxiliary lenses just like a portrait attachment for a box camera, to give a fixed-focus camera more than one focus distance. I...

I now see 'Our newest member: ian-barber' at the bottom of the main forum page, so it seems you're in; but I guess you still need an email to let you log in, right?

If you wanted a UK-specific...

If you already have a camera with better movements than any of the Graphics, have you considered getting a before-the-lens shutter to mount on your lenses with the camera you have, instead of a whole...

Here's a Lizars at Early Photography: http://www.earlyphotography.co.uk/site/entry_C645.html

Some of the Sandersons under the same 'Stand' heading have a rather different round board.

I also...

I use a Combi-plan tank (which is discussed in a number of other threads); sadly not sold any more (anywhere I know of, anyhow). Loading it in my little black bag is awkward, but possible. Filling...

I just bought a CC401 myself. It came with an eight-inch Wray process lens. I've taken that off, for now at least, and fitted on the board the only lens I have that both covers the format and has a...
