I am considering upgrading from a Jobo CPP-2 unit to a more automated one. I use the expert drums to process 4x5 and 8x10 film, and I plan to buy a used unit. I wonder what the differences are between the ATL 2200 (a current product, per Jobo USA web site), and the ATL 2000 which I understand is a discontinued model . Thanks in advance for any info,

Phong,

Without lengthy study of the sales brochures I can not readily say what the importance of any differences is.

However, I bought an ATL2000 second hand about 6 months ago for $AUD 500.00 (about $US 360.00) and it is absolutely wondeful.

Where it really shines is in doing several loads of the drums in succession. I have two of each for 4x5 & 8x10 and I have no difficulty getting through a lot of film. In fact, my bottle neck is the limitation of hanging space for neg drying.
