How long will the Edward Weston show last and where is the location? Also do you know the same answer to the questions for the Kenro Izu show? Thanks.
Linda,

Neil,
I would also like to add that lighting technique is important. Depending on the type of color film used and the light source, you may have to use an color compensating filter. I am...
Ansel Adam's "Polaroid Manual" is very good. From what I gathered from reading this book is that exposure of Type 55 is important. He meters for the highlights and lets the lower zones fall where...
I have access to a 58mm Schneider and was wondering if you need to use the cente r filter? Is the fall off of light really noticable? If I do, I think I can re nt one so that won't be a problem. ...
I've looked in B & H and Calumet for the new single sheet Readyloads and also for the new holders but can't seem to find any for sale. Where did you buy yours? Thanks.

Another new product for the home which works great in the darkroom is called "Swifter" which attracts dust. The room has never been as dust free.

Douglas,
I have heard of this workshop by Bruce Barnbaum and am thinking about going myself. I heard it's a great learning experience.

Hello Steve,
I have the monocular viewing hood attachment from Cambo and it fits fine. However I haven't used it much lately since you get use to seeing things upside down. If I had to do it...
Nathan,
I've been using the 55 for the negatives and found that if you run regular tap water over the negatives that the emulsion is easily removed. I found that I do not have to rub on the...
