Another reason why 5x8 is a great format. The Jobo 3010 drum for 4x5 fits a 5x8 sheet in each cylinder, so it handles 5 sheets at at time.

Thanks Michael! I don't have your skill so I had to purchase. And yes I still love the format and still have the Ebony 810 slw and 5x8 back. I'm a wide lens guy, so for me the appeal was to create a...
I love the 5x8 format! I started by having Hiromi build a 5x8 back for my Ebony 8x10. Later, I came up with the idea of commissioning Fotoman in China to build a 5x8 aluminum camera, with ground...
I photograph regularly with the nikkor 120sw and the 150sw. Lately the 150 has become my most used lens, lots of movement, extremely sharp, but very expensive. Here is an example of the Nikkor 150sw....
Good stuff, congratulations!!!
That's the bottom line, unless there is adequate demand this supply line will go away also. I plan to go back to many of the Kodak Chemicals as they become available, hopefully many others will too.
I just read this announcement on John Sexton’s news letter. I would welcome the return of t-max rs!

I have a couple Gitzo giant’s that I use from my boat in deep water. This is my ladder set up for 8x10.
T-max rs has been long gone now, so I imagine all of us have moved on. In my case, I made the switch to Ilford ddx and use it one shot diluted 1:9 similar to the way I was using tmax-rs. I have...
Thanks for that answer, that's what I was afraid of, now I have two lenses that are the same and not really what I wanted. Oh well!
I’m sure I wasn’t clear, I now will have two 12 in 4.5 velostigmats, one is a focus 2 with no diffuser and the other is just a velostigmat ( not the focus 2)
My question is, what’s the difference...
Rehashing an old thread, What is the difference between a Velostigmat II 12 inch 4.5 that does not have the soft focus ring and a Velostigmat 12 inch 4.5?
Like an idiot, now I have both, I...
I'm curious myself, I have a Devere 5108 and have wondered if there is an LED bulb that would work in place of the halogens. It seems that the brightness isn't sufficient from what I remember but,...
I have a 5108, similar to yours, even the color analyzer, which I have never used. Your machine looks like it will be great once cleaned up and you find a power supply. They are heavy but, not so...
Yes, that looks interesting, I used a service like that years ago for an exhibit Ebony camera had at the Fuji Salon Gallery in Tokyo. Fuji wanted all film to be theirs and prints to be on Fuji...
Hi Bruce, thanks for the detailed explanation, your answer is what I had feared.
In this instance, the 8x10 negatives would be sourced from a sony a7rIV, 60mp. If I wanted just a large print, I could do that on a large digital printer.
I much prefer Silver Gelatin to inkjet for...
I hope you all don’t mind me starting this new thread, I know the subject has been touched on but I thought maybe time for a refresh.
I have read a lot about making digital negatives, as with...
If you find you need more extension than your camera allows you can get an extension board to mount the lens to, assuming you don’t have to extend too much.

Very cool image Paul!
Thanks Mat! I still have about 75 sheets of 8x10 Efke IR. I too will be sad when it’s gone, I wonder if any manufacturers are considering making more? I would be a buyer. I have one of my Sony a7r’s...
Glad I found this thread. I have a 16x20 Kostiner archival washer that I purchased used some years ago, it also did not arrive with a valve. It just has a hole in the base, if I hold a hose against...
Thanks Bryan, I’m sorry I didn’t get to meet you when you were in town! The mosquitoes and horse fly’s were ferocious on this trip also. It’s hit and miss, sometime they’re not too bad. I don’t have...

Thanks for rekindling this old thread! I need to do a refresh on my filter hauling needs, that Mindshift Hive looks pretty sweet. Might have to give that a try!
If the dog eats it, it’s good dog food.
This rule probably applies to photography too.
Thank Phillip!

I was fortunate to bring this negative to Mitchell Brown’s Darkroom in Georgia, and had the pleasure of working...
Very nice Bryan, great tones and composition!
Many thanks Paul!
Thank You!

Another foggy morning image, this one from a small lake in central Florida. The fog was so dense when I launched my Gheenoe in...
Thanks Ari! This was captured on t-max 100, iso 80, developed in t-max rs 1:9. The one thing I try to remember when shooting in heavy fog, is to meter and then expose a stop or two higher than what...
I have had the Rad Rover for several years now, I installed the large rear rack and a front rack. I have since switched my large rack to the front, which has worked out better. The range is great and...
Thanks Bryan, it's been so long that I forgot how to post images on this site! I'll dust off some more and send them along soon!

Pm your email to me and I will send you a pdf, I’m not sure how to post it here.
As mentioned earlier, you only need a center filter if you are concerned about the edges being darker than the center, vignetting. With black and white I find it to be subtle but pleasing, back when...
Conflation, great word. Yes, 35mm, medium format and 4x5 are still available. 8x10 and larger, which I should have been more specific about, is not. Ordering film once a year is not ideal.
Below,...
Thanks for updating this thread, it may be time to start a new thread/new discussion about the demise of T-max RS as well as T-max 100 large format sheet film (8x10 in my case), maybe the rest to...
