Photo-Therm processor - Tips on using one?

[Jack Brady]

Greetings!

I've just received a used Photo-Therm SSK-8R that I purchased on eBay.

I've been using the Jobo CPP2 with lift but admit to being too easily distracted to be able to stand in one place waiting to lift the handle to dump out the solutions! Thus, the purchase of the Photo-Therm.

I will be processing 120 and 4x5 sheet film, about 90% Black and White, balance color.
Film is mainly TMax 100 developed in the Photographers Form. TMax BW2 developer.
Will hope to do color in the near future.

I initially have the 4 reel tank (does 2 reels of 120 or 4 sheets of 4x5).

Was hoping to find others using this machine to get a few tips from.

Thanks,
Jack

Jack, I have an SSK-8R which I have been using for about a year. Email me if you have any questions. I use it for color negative work (4x5 and 35mm).
