I'm surprised no one mentioned the availability of daylight developing tanks for 4x5. I find the HP Combi-Plan tank invaluable (use small tank times for starters), if a bit finicky to load. I've...

I spoke with someone at Kodak about this, and came away thinking a shift from D-76 to XTOL (which I'd been trying anyway) mgith be beneficial here, since it apparently produces greater shadow detail,...
Embarrassing as it is to admit, I'm finally getting around to developing some shot film I've had in my fridge for years. Obviously it wasn't on top of my list, but these pictures do matter to me, and...
Bottom line is, it depends whether anyone's been renewing those copyrights--or (wild card) if the copyright was ever taken out. As you gather, this can be a thorny topic, though John's right, in all...
I recently saw one in Central Camera in Chicago. I'm sure they'd send it to you if they still have it.
As another photographer who went to Deep Springs, I wanted to add my thanks as well--and a suggestion. Generations pass quickly at a school which replaces all its students every other year, so...
There most certainly are changes to the processing times between old and new TMAX 100, Paul. Check with Kodak via their website or their 800# (800-242-2424 x19) for details. They maintain there's a...
That's the one! Thanks so much for posting the pictures, Wally.
I imagine your manual will make this clear, but, going down from the lamp housing, I'm assuming the filter drawer comes first, then...
Wally, thanks again for sharing this information. It may be apparent from your photo, but just in case I'll mention that I'm curious about the negative carrier on yours. Your mention of the filter...
Wally, your post showed up while I was writing my last. I've sent you my address by e-mail, in the event that manual turns up. A photocopy would be a great help. What lens does yours have?
Thanks, Eugene, for that tip on the diffusion screen. It's definitely a Beseler--the plate on the back says "Beseler 5x7 diffusion enlarger." Since I don't have the head, I was just guessing it...
I'd be interested to hear from anyone with experience using an older Beseler 5x7 enlarger called the "5x7 diffusion enlarger." I find few references to this model on-line, and none in the archives of...
Seems to me you're confusing brightness with color temperature, Heather. You've gotten plenty of good advice above about color materials, their resistance to manipulation compared to b&w. Metering...
