Ilford Multigrade IV RC Portfolio Paper (Glossy, 4 x 6", 100 Sheets) B&H thinks they are getting more ...

Heh, I'm slow sometimes... :o:p Agree about the backprinting, RC is generally pretty picky about what pencils, inks, etc. it will take.

Don't worry Oren, I will be buying the paper as well ASAP

Agree I got almost the last of NOS Postcard size 4X6 AMAZON had 20 boxes on the Ilford store, but it was on a closed LA Dealer eBay then...

It all depends. There are many brands of carbon fiber tripods and they're all over the map in terms of price and quality of build. For large format...

I know it's not a definitive answer, but I have used my Gitzo in temperatures down to -20 F or so without any issues. No issues with the tripod that...

This is early Voigtlander Petzval sold recently. It has a nice engraving around the brass lens hood - not quite kosher for Voigtlander. The style of...

I was having such trouble seeing the ground glass with a traditional horse blanket that I opted for the hood design. It has made such a difference -...

Thanks Mark, that's a really kind thing to say. Cheers Graham

surely the area of a circle is all that's needed

As aid to my AZO Paper exploration, I must thank Bernice Loui for a large box of Amidol about 5 years ago I have not opened it, yet... Thank...
