  1. Re: Finally got Office and darkroom ready...

    I have the asi6200mm. the 2600 would be a good camera. And filters can be a bit pricey. The filter wheel is not too bad. The filters will last a long time for sure. The narrow band can get...

  4. Re: Just bought a box of expired TMAX400 25 sheet 8x10

    Yeah, the stuff is pricy. I will get a box or 2 for a year and be very picky about popping open the shutter. Hopefully prices come down a bit. Good to know it ages well.

    This looks amazing, Steve.
    Thank you good pun!
    Well done, especially considering you've only scratched the surface as you put it.

    Re: Scanning 8x10 Negatives

    If you want, you could send me an image and I can drum scan it for you. It wouldn't cost you anything to give it a try? I could also do a wet mount on my V850 for comparisons.

    How is the center...

    Re: Scanning 8x10 Negatives

    You can apply sharpening with the Howtek, but I have not done so yet as I prefer to do it in PS. Although, I may try it down the road. You should try to wet scan. Results will improve. Yes, am...
