Thank you everyone for the tips and links. I do have a cibachrome tube hanging out somewhere. It will be a pain in the ass but it beats try processing in my eyes. If all goes to plan tomorrow Ill...

Hello all. I'm just getting into 8x10 photography. I'm thinking that I would like to use a drum for my film but the only problem is that I am quite poor and can't afford one of the $499 Jobo film...

Why not?

They would. I'm surprised I haven't seen it in Half price books yet.

I'm just going to tray process. I was hoping to be lazy and tube process, oh well.

I was told that as long as I put the film in the tube and do a constant roll that I should be able to do just fine with the tube that I have.

I'm not going to be scanning the film at that kind of quality just yet. I have a scanner that works just fine for my needs.

I plan to do all the developing myself. I'm prepared to do this.

Hmm, well that kind of defeats the purpose of using the drum for me. Oh well I'll just get trays and process that way anyway.

Thank you

How would I go about this? Ive never even thought about doing this and then realized that I have a cibachrome tube. I don't have a roller thingy so will I have to constantly roll it?


Thanks...

Thank you very much. I was just thinking of posting a topic on how to make bellows. Ive been researching it because I want to get some practice making them. I'm about to buy an 8x10 (making payment...

Wish that I could go to this, all the cool things either happen out of the way or when I have no cash.

I have two 4.5s. A 4x5 and 5x7. The 5x7 was 58.75 after shipping, and the 4x5 came with a Goerz 12'' and it was probably about 40 after shipping.

I'm 22, Ive been using LF off and on for about 3 years or so. I'm getting back into it and bought a Speed Graphic, my first LF camera.

That is beautiful. Very nice work.

Do you have any resources for making the bellows? I'm considering building an 8x10 but I just don't want to spend the money on the bellows.

Thats a very interesting story. He really did write the book on alternative processes. I have it on my shelf along with Christopher James' book. Both are very good. James seems to put it into more...

Crazy, nothing shows. That makes me feel alot better about having some dust and crap in my lenses.

What were you using before? Ive used D-76 for my stuff and its been fine. It seems to be the trend though that many people have had the problem but will never have it again and will never be able to...

Haha nice.

Looks fairly easy to clean out. Looks like the front element just pops off. If only I had the money

Could this possibly have a different name then what I have?

Well thats more then what I had before. So I take it you've heard of them before? Do you know if it will fit on the speed graphic or not?

Heres the link to the ebay auction....

I have searched everywhere, Yahoo, google, graflex.org, Photo.net, and here and I cannot find a thing on this what so ever. Am I just horrible at finding information on the things that I buy? All...

Thank you very much. Now I'm finding a lot of information on the lens. Still nothing on the Goerz Robertson one though.


Edit: Nevermind, Im very tired. I for some reason didn't get what was...

Hmm, it does sound quite similar to the problems I had with HP5. Please be sure to post what Ilford has to say about this.

Does anyone have any information on this lens? I cant find a thing.

I don't think that it was something that you did really. I think that its just the way Ilford films act sometimes. I think that the film is more sensitive to used developer and chemistry. Its just a...

I signed.

This bill just scares the crap out of me.

I had a problem a couple years ago with HP5, there was this weird stuff all over the film. It was never explained and never got reproduced but the hardener in the fix was cut in half and there hasn't...

The only time that I have ever used mine is to mess with the film backs and see what they look like on the camera. Ive never actually used the back so technically Ive never used the locks.

Thank you everyone for the replies. Right before I posted I was informed of the fungus so it was only a vague thought with a bit of hope. Instead I got a Bausch and Lomb 4.5 series 1C for the same...

I'm considering getting an Industar 51 lens that has a bit of fungus. Would it be worth it (on ebay right now for 60, buy it now 30 plus shipping 30) to get it and use it or clean it? I sent a...
