No, the scanner has definitly a SE connection. But it could also been an issue of the device driver. The card BIOS of the 39320 listed the scanner on boot time with the correct id and name, but Win 7...

Some churches are more "open" and thus perhaps provide a better link to heaven :)
90mm on TXT 4x5
Not as far as I know, see e.g. http://www.storagesearch.com/lvdart.html. Only multimode bus systems are able to serve both kinds of signaling. This has nothing to do with the plug or the number of...
I'm operating a SprintScan 45 Ultra on current Hardware running Windows 7 x64. VUESCAN handles this without grumble.The original Polacolor Insight Software will not run on anything beyond Windows XP,...
Charley,
there is unfortunately only a German version available on the Tetenal Website. But I think you will be able to retrieve the necessary information, anyhow. The Address is...
And I will top this with a forgotten Pelicase on a holiday trip. It contained the lenses, while I took everything else with me :rolleyes:
I´ve also forgotten the cable release sometime. But at least...
Ed, the "trick" is to relevel the back with the tripod head after applying "asymmetric" tilts. You will have to apply an additional shift on the front standard to compensate for the this releveling....
Will there be a 160c sheet film? AFAIK, was the former NPC not availiable in sheet film.
"I don't know if we actually disagree"
NO, I did NOT mean to disagree, but to give another explanation why it cannot be true that DOF is independent of the focal length. This is obvious, because...
"This last fact leads some people to claim that depth of field is independent of focal length. They can maintain that because even outside the close-up range, as long as the subject is not too far...
Wilbur,
even if you asked for a non-theoretical view, perceived DOF is dependent on exactly three parameters:
1. the magnification ratio at exposure-time
2. the magnification ratio at...
John,
Tura is not part of the AGFA Family, but was a Distributor of AGFA Materials. AFAIK, Tura is not producing film and paper themselves any more for years now. They may still be producing color...
I don't use the Zone System. My primary intention at shooting time is to record as much information as possible. So I usually expose for the shadows. This gives me more degrees of freedom in later...
Bernhard,
thank you for sharing this. I have some comments regarding relevelling the back
after applying (asymmetric) tilt:

<li>you usually have to apply front shift afterwards to...

Swiss newspapers report today, that the German Jenopik AG (http://www.jenoptik.com) has acquired a 51% share of Sinar. The remaining 49% are still held by the Sinar family. The details of the...
Michael,
if you expose NPS too long, you may experience crossover casts that cannot be filtered in analog printing, but could be handled digitally. Use NPL instead. Color temperature conversion is...
John,
this is not a new one. Search the forum for "Maglite" to get more interesting comments. Maglites with removeable head are best suited, because the bare bulb is easier to focus on and you have...
Ben,
I agree that the Ebony Fresnel is not in the same league as the rest of the camera. I replaced mine with a Bosscreen and I am much happier now. I have ordered mine directly from Stabitech...
Richard,
the Computar enlarger lenses are excellent. These lenses were designed and marketed by the US-Company of the same name. AFAIK, they have been manufactured by Kowa. The same lenses have...
Harley,
since Process C-41 is highly standardized, you can be confident, that NPS has got a rating of 160 according to ISO 5800. But the question is, whether you will have enough details and color...
John,
I wonder how you manage to connect to the internet mechanically. Or do you actually use electronic (or even Asian) devices to do so?
A coach is much simpler then a car, but I don't think...
There are rare cases where investors take over a company and break it down. But this usually does not takes place in a privately held company, like AGFA Photo was in its final stage. To file for...
Gene,
Gigabitfilm is all about developer. There are two types of developer availiable. Type II and Type IV. Type II is very unique developer. With Gigabit Sheet Film, it retains a Gamma of 0.5,...
Ernest,
DBGM (Deutsches Bundes Gebrauchsmuster) means the same as DRGM, but is post WW-II. The appendix "a" means that it has been applied for but not yet granted.

John,
a professional photographer of today will one day post a message somewhere, if there are some elder photo grunts with callosity on their fingers (from typing and mouse-clicking) and who have...
John,
the best way to clean a fresnell lens (as well as many other things) is using an ultrasonic cleaner. However, the consumer models (e.g. for contact lenses) are usually too small....
Kirk,
I think there is nothing wrong if someone sells your pictures as long as he does not sell unauthorized copies of your work. But what would you say, if someone - not Sherrie Levine - sells...
I am surprised that some photographers do not seem to value trademarks. A trademark is similar to a copyright. It is as well a protection of an intellectual property. What would you say, if someone...
Mark,
the "spacer ring" is a tuning ring that was installed in the factory to perfectly tune the lens elements and the barrel. The mechanical components of a lens can have slight manufacturing...
Ho,
only the exact mechanical specification of the lens can answer your question. However, the Flange Focal Distance or Flange Back - the distance between the mounting flange at the lens board and...
Aaron,
warmer water is more efficient, because it has more power to dissolve substances. However, there is a tradeoff in terms of what you discovered. The wamer the water, the softer the emulsion...

Dave,
lens-speed or f-stop is by definition the ratio of the entrance pupil to the focal length. If you increase the focal length and do not increase the opening correspondingly, you will have...
Chris,
the 135mm Rodagon is meant to fit the continental european format 9x12cm (3.5x4.7"). However, at 2x magnification it should work well with 4x5. if your corners are burned (i.e. receive too...
I would keep them, too. Look at current lens prices. It is currently a buyers market.
What does "Vintage" in this context mean? :-))
Martin, true enlarger lenses like Comonons and Rodagons have a very limited coverage that is caluclated to fit the negative at 1:5-1:10 (for LF). The coverage would be less at infinity and you would...
