    New55 FILM: "We Probably Won't Make It"

    This would be too bad if, after all their work, it can't get funding. Here's someone who is doing something about disappearing films by making one so anyone bemoaning the loss of this or that film,...

    Re: Jobo - worth it?

    For me it's about the bottom line.

    Will you save enough $ via lower chemistry volumes to pay for the expenditure of $525 for a tank (that can break) and will you see enough improvement in your...

    Re: Jobo 3010 Maximum Capacity?

    You could have used 350-400 w/no issues.
    For 10 sheets 500 will work but if dilution is a worry, add a little more. This won't strain the motor and you can always move the 'crow's foot' out of the...

    Re: Jobo Expert?

    I've never come up short in developer volume resulting in unevenness whether running at the Jobo rec. levels or higher. For pyrocat I use more but it's also the math involved. Sometimes it's easier...

    Oriental Warmtone in Ansco 115

    I prefer warm tone papers and, since the demise of Forte, I've been looking for a good replacement. Clients for the most part don't ask for warm tone papers so I wasn't highly motivated.

    This is good news! Although I have a drum scanner, it sure beats paying those riddick prices on ebay or wherever for nikon's or koni/minoltas.

    What 4x5 Camera Is This?

    There's no branding of any kind on it and it's very light-weight. I have called it a Nagoaka all...

  16. Re: Uneven development - Pyroact HD with JOBO 1520 & 120 film

    Yes perhaps that is it Sandy. I use Kodak Rapid fix. I recall reading somewhere that, at least with Edwal hypo test, that it doesn't work properly at film strength dilutions.
    Fixer that should be...
  17. Re: Uneven development - Pyroact HD with JOBO 1520 & 120 film

    That's interesting Sandy. I don't have that problem w/any films here and I do get a wide variety of them through the door.
    A while back I processed a large amount of 8x10 TXP in D-76. When I...
  18. Re: Uneven development - Pyroact HD with JOBO 1520 & 120 film

    I'd start with 5 secs agitation every minute as 1 inversion is not enough.

  19. Re: Uneven development - Pyroact HD with JOBO 1520 & 120 film

    Unless you can find documented recommendations for any kind of semi-stand development, I would start with every minute agitation at the least unless you find evidence to the contrary.

    I don't...

    I've used the 1500 series via inversion when I found that Microdol X and Tmax 100 were not compatible w/rotary processing and created odd marks near the 35mm sprocket holes. I had no problems with...

    Here is the print out that came with my Jobo drums, which are the 3010 and 3005. Color chemistry recommendations were considerably less IIRC.

    Andre, could you expand upon the lack of "archivalness" in the Jobo processor that you mention? Although I do many more washes, I was told by a Kodak professional helpline person I could get by with...

    Re: Ideal film/developer-drum scanning B&W Landscapes

    I think scanning flat has it's merits depending on the scanning software, scanner, etc., you're using and how wide a tonal range you're trying to cover.

    There are times a drum scan just isn't necessary and the flatbed scan will be good enough. There are times I...
