    Re: Bellows for 8x10 Kodak Master

    Mine was done by Custom Bellows (Camera Bellows) a year ago. Turnaround time was just 2 weeks INCLUDING round trip shipping from Oregon! That kind of turnaround time is unlikely even from a...

    Re: Carrying 8x10 holders

    I insert each 8x10 holder in a black plastic sleeve, then put them in a small laptop computer bag. Laptop cases have good shoulder straps, are sized correctly, have adjustable internal straps for...

    Re: 4x5 or 8x10

    You don't mention whether you're shooting in black and white or color, but I shoot 8x10 color negative, drum scan and blow up to 4 to 5 feet. I switched from 4x5 after having shot with it for 3...

    Re: Fill-flash in a rain forest?

    I agree with Bruce about shooting color negative film in these circumstances. I shoot in these conditions all the time and Velvia is absolutely the wrong film for this, unless you're after an...

  8. Re: Need filter holder solution for Schneider 150mm SSXL

    Received this note from John Adler, LEE Filters USA, today:

    "It is okay to put the polarizer behind a resin filter. (The problem arises when you put the polarizer behind a gel or polyester...
  9. Re: Need filter holder solution for Schneider 150mm SSXL

    Eric, thank you for your thoughtful and thorough posts. An interesting statement that 8x10 has become an amateur format.

    I sympathize with your dilemma trying to resolve the filter holder issue...
  10. Re: Need filter holder solution for Schneider 150mm SSXL

    Re: Singh-Ray -- Eric, yes but they are all resin according to earlier posts I've read. They stopped making the glass ones years ago because people kept breaking them.

    Hmmm, maybe this situation...
  11. Re: Need filter holder solution for Schneider 150mm SSXL

    I am going to keep this as simple as possible and assume I will not ever be using the 4a center filter. I use the 80mm SSXL lens without a CF and find it satisfactory since I shoot only color...
  12. Need filter holder solution for Schneider 150mm SSXL

    I’ve just purchased but haven’t yet received the 150mm SSXL for use with 8x10.

    In other formats using a lens with a similar angle of view, I usually use a polarizer plus a graduated neutral...

    Unfortunately, neither of these labs appear to be particularly color negative-friendly, both using the less desirable Tango scanner (for color negatives) while WCI specifically stating that better...
  14. Where to Drum Scan/Print Color Negatives

    Re: Lab closed dammit!

    I've been using Dot Dotson's in Eugene for the last 3 years, which processes 4x5 and 8 x 10 (as well as 35mm and 2 1/4) E6 in a dip and dunk processor. They do E6 daily and C-41 once or twice a...

    Schneider Super Symmar 80XL

    My SS80XL was purchased new about 4 months ago and is quite surprisingly sharp wide open. I do not hesitate to photograph with it that way when it's required. Mine came from B&H.
