Thank you Mark. It's the programming panel that's got me scratching my head. Just a basic calculator like display which isn't the most intuitive thing.
I've been scouring the web for info and it's...
I’ve just acquired a Rollma 31 II paper cutter and have no idea how it works. Does anyone have a manual that they could share?
Thanks Bob, however they're all stamped "West Germany" just wondering if they're photographing a genuine lens panel then shipping a fake one.
I'd like to buy a couple of Linhof lens panels and of course checked out eBay only to see some brand new, Linhof lens panels being sold cheaply from China. I'm assuming that they're not genuine......
Thanks Louis, stay warm!
Solved. I used some electrical lube on the button and then pushed it back home with the help of some pliers. Heating element now works.
I have a Jobo CPP2 that was turned on with no water in it and consequently the heating element isn't heating.
The thermal cutout switch/button has corroded so it appears that the white button...
Cool, thank you!
I've read that Maxwell screens have a very fine angle of where the image looks bright. Has anyone with a Maxwell screen used a reflex viewer with it? Does the image still look even bright?
I'm looking at trying to upgrade an early model Jobo CPA2 with the upgraded motor that can handle the 3000 series expert drums.
So far I've found that you can use a BMW wiper motor or buy a new...
I've been sent a small mirror thing made by Ebony. Does anyone know what Ebony intended this to be used for?
I'm looking at doing some of my own C-41 developing and I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with the Rollei (dev, bleach, fix, stabilizer) kit and the Tetanal (dev, blix, stabilizer kit)?

Thank you guys, I think I'll walk away from it then.
I have the opportunity to buy a Jobo ATL 3 processor which is not in the best of condition.
I have no experience with them so I really don't know what I should be looking for, apart from the...
I was looking at the ANR glass holders but I can only assume that on a 4x5 neg, they will be magnets for dust and lint. Of course you could fluid mount them as well, but then you have issues with air...
I've been using my Epson V750 for colour neg scanning and it's surprisingly good. The colour is 90% there straight out of the Epson software, however the sharpness does seem vary from neg to neg.

I'd like to fit a Horseman Reflex Viewer to my Ebony 4x5 camera and I've read that the likes of S.K. Grimes and Badger Photographic can do this - at a cost...
Has anyone done this themselves? If...
Can you tell me what brand the electrostatic gun is?
If an x-ray machine had fogged the film, the fogging would look like lens flare coloured bands (around 1cm wide) running down the length of the film. On 120 or 35mm this looks like a sine wave...
Thank you for the offer Robert but unfortunately I live in the UK. Tempted to come over though..
As Lenoard mentioned, I love the idea of going from camera bag to tripod in one swift movement. Not...
Thanks guys. The Phillips took about a minute to set up and pack away as well, which I found a little frustrating. I'm sure the Ebony folds away a little better though.
Should have mentioned that...
I'm now in the market for an 8x10 Ebony Camera but I can't decide on whether it should be folding or non-folding. Either would have to be ordered so I'm not in a position to look before I buy.
I'd...
Very interesting results.
Just wonder what the quality difference would be between the iQsmart2 and the iQsmart3?
The iQsmart2 has a 3.9 dMax vs 4.1 for the iQsmart3.
Has anyone tested both...
