Hi Dan, much appreciate your encyclopedic knowledge on these lenses. I do have a Kingslake book to study all the various lens formulas, as well as...

I've bought Formulary PMK from B&H several times in the past 5 years and never had it come DOA, but I can imagine it is possible. All of the PMK I...

Hmm. All this fuss about a competitor to the Dagor. Many makers brought 6/3 anastigmats to market before WWI. After the war, they were slowly...

:D

Museums and galleries regularly have small wall labels next to the art on the walls. A line with edition information and price doesn't make it look...

Are you doing manual rotation, or are you using a processor? I am also assuming that you are doing 1-2 sheets against the sides of the tank in 'print...

A separate price list. Who wants their gallery presentation looking like a grocery store with labels on everything? That might be OK for street fair...

The 250mm is a good choice, the 300mm as well and with a larger image circle. The Steinheil Orthostigmat lenses having the same formular, maybe you...

Sandy, It was fairly simple to do. At least for this image. A lot depends on time of day, and lighting conditions. I could not get the same...

I'm exercising my strobes too; My three Primo 2 packs (which I use all the time) are AOK fine. Two of my Opus 2 packs were fine. The third one was...

We never put anything but the art itself on the walls and small pins which have 1 -40 numbers on them which matches the numbers and descriptions on...

For my last show, the gallery put a number next to each photo, and had a printed list with a thumbnail and details for each image. They put a stack...

ALL the 'Patent' lenses I have examined have the rice writing, even one I bought from India and which has probably been repolished at some time...

Yes, I know, Marty. When I write 99%, it's because I don't have the exact volume in mind. I fill the tank to the limit below the top edge of the last...

Me neither.

Thanks. I don't use that lens very often. And I have only shot a couple rolls of color with it. Follow this link for a Moonrise Using Fuji Pro...

I do inversion with the smaller 6 sheet JOBO tank, and about 1400 ml of chemistry (Pyrocat HD, water stop, TF-4). No problems. I do a prewash for a...

Finished the overhaul and fitting on the donor back. Turned out it needed a fair bit of repair. A good amount of damaged wood; in the end, was...

I don't shoot a lot of "big" landscapes much, generally shooting things that are just a yard/meter or three away. Here's where the 'poor' folks...

The shows I have been to at galleries showing only photography don't display technical information beyond the print. If someone is interested, I'm...

We went to Picchetti Ranch Preserve in Cupertino, CA, on the morning of the 4th of July. I guess we got there early, as there was only one other car...
