I have a beseler 45s dichro head, so I am used to dialing in my filtration. But lately, I've been doing more and more split-filter printing, and dialing the extreme contrast changes into the head between exposures is a bit of an inconvenience.
I was thinking of buying a set of Ilford VC filters to use. They seem very easy, straight forward. Everything I print is on Ilford paper anyway. The advertisement states that exposure for filters 0-3 is the same, and exposure for 4-5 is double. That seems so simple, and would be great for constant exposure when changing grades.
I'm looking for suggestions, comments, anything. Anyone else have a dichro head with all the dials on 0 printing through VC filters? Or anyone else doing alot of split-filter printing with any suggestions?
