I'm not that familiar with the insides, but take 2 apart and compare this problematic one with a good one.
Thanks for sharing, Sandy. I'm saddened to hear of his passing.
My condolences to his family and friends.

Lightware had one too. If you search my posts, you should find the one included when I sold mine.

His name is Grant Kernan and I think I got the last 2 of the bunch. I had 3 at one time and later sold 2 of them but kept S/N # 003.
I hadn't really considered a soft case; thinking hard case for protection in transit.
Yes, new Lightware is not cheap but I see them used on the auction site, sometimes reasonably priced.
Thanks...
Carbon fiber hiking poles are nice. With a backpack, hands can be free to keep your balance... keeping your gear and yourself safe.
Thanks for the repost. I'd have missed it otherwise. I need to check this out. Plenty of time to do it too!
The hinge and back finally gave up the ghost today. I knew it was coming... just delaying the inevitable. Have any of you had success in finding a replacement case for your Ansco or Agfa-Ansco 8x10?...
Gotta find time for that road trip!
You forgot Vesta!
Or schedule a workshop with Michael Fatali.
I was trying to find if that remainder would be sufficient for someone else shooting that format (and for minimal waste on my end) or if the remainder would need to be cut down to a smaller format to...
I have some 12x20 film that I will be cutting down to 8x10. I am going to use one of my 8x10 Ilford or Kodak 8x10 negatives as a template for cutting. This will leave me with some strips of film...
I saw this yesterday and was gritting my teeth because I didn't have the funds available to bid on it.
There's some psychology in viewing prints of this size up close. Many of Clyde Butcher's prints are hung in view of the public eye also. It's impressive to see a photo wider than our arms can reach...
Build on demand to reduce inventory?
Yes, thanks for the typo correction. It is 4.5.
I'm offended or something.
I'm in the process of mounting a few lenses for a lightweight 5x7 Seneca 6B. I like it because it's light, has a rotating back and protects the lens when closed. Also look at Seroco and Poco, just to...
Love it! I was hoping to catch a bunch I saw at at a fair last year, later this year. Not a project, just interesting sitters for some portraits.
Keep up the good work.
Chris
I read on a box (was it 5 or 25?) that the duration was 20ms. I bet a 3 second flash needs a lot more time before grabbing that bulb to change it.
Tim,
Thanks. I had forgotten that link.
Mark, As long as there are guzintas and guzouttas, there will most likely be an adapter.
On a side note, you should watch Requiem For a Dream.
I've seen this lens offered in barrel or in Studio shutter. Mine is the f4 version with diffusion control and is in the Studio shutter. I'll be honest. I despise these shutters, but I really like...
Interesting. I have a flash with the other side of this connection. I'll consider reading this post a bonus?
I know they offer an 8x10 to 4x5 reducer back as well as a 5x7 to 4x5 reducer back.
Was there ever an 8x10 to 5x7? I can't find one in the catalog I was looking through.
Why are some usernames in italics. I've noticed but have not been able to find an answer (maybe i'm searching for the wrong combo of words) via the search tool.
I don't recall the detailed history, but Frank Marshman bought up the inventory of Ilex parts to continue service for his customers.
I've not talked to him in a few years, so I don't know if he's...
Other than speed, I'm not sure why you have concerns about your shutter. I don't think you will find a modern shutter big enough to mount that glass. If you have concerns about operation of your...
I've never seen an oil transfer in front of me but that description sounds similar to a carbon print.
Is it? If so, does it have the "relief" texture to it like a carbon print? I have one of Sandy...
My daughter.
She enjoys hiking and landscape photography almost as much as I do. I wish she would carry more, but it's fun teaching her things and leaving some for her to figure out on her own....
Faster? Absolutely.
Better? I don't. My percentage of what I consider successful photos goes up using 5x7 or 8x10 goes up, compared to 35mm.
In several situations, you will find that manufacturer specifications are not always in sync with standard industry practices.
I agree that plausible deniability is a factor to consider... even more...
This is Independece Day weekend here in the US. Many people here take off for a few additional days, sometimes the whole week, to spend time with family and friends or just get away.
Sergei,
Only one word comes to mind... Athena!
Thanks for posting. (Ok, that was 3 more words)
Chris
I've been mulling over an elaborate shutter support frame and bellows to lensboard connection to do the same function (but on a field camera), but the design in my head just seemed overly...
Still life. :cool:
Is your choice of tungsten light source on silver chloride papers based on something you can describe in the print visually or just a time control?
I have a shutter lens combo that I got from a forum member some time ago that sent it off to S.K. Grimes for a solution. Think of a flange ring to filter thread adapter, where the flange (very thin)...
