    If I switch to the Slosher will my prints look just like John's?

    Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you do criticize them you'll be
    a mile away and you'll have their shoes.

    That would be nice - I'll second the request.

    I thought John Sexton used a Jobo.

    Weegee the great was promoting some product once (I think is was flashbulbs) and his saying would go for Sexton and JOBO ; I endorse this product but I don't necessarily use it.

    Take his work shop and may be they will. Sexton has a Jobo in his darkroom but also has trays, don't think he is tied down to any particular method of film development but did say he was happy with the results.

    It also says, "If you’re a medium or large format photographer you probably already have a Polaroid® film back to evaluate lighting ratios, exposure, filter effects and composition."

    I believe Mr. Sexton uses the slosher for compensating development with minimal agitation in dilute developer.

    I was a proponent of Yankee tanks until I started noticing uneven development in sky areas while working on a project. Tried every agitation variation suggested here and on other forums. Even tried holding my tongue a certain way while developing. Finally gave in and bought one of the (I think) older versions of this slosher from the Formulary. Worked out a random, gentle agitation scheme and have perfectly even skies.
