Hello Gerry,

I hate to say it but I will have to pass on tomorrow. Have a great time it should be a great day.

See you in the morning. Is there a cell number to call if I get up there early?
Arthur

I don't have anything as of yet. I was thinking of making my own slide in single lensboards.

I second the Unicolor drum and motor
I have been using it for the past 2 years and it works great.
Uses only 4oz total developer per 4 sheets of 4x5 film
I use d23 1:3 and it gives great negs...

Hello All,

for this enlarger. I would love to not have the added expense
of purchasing the turret and then all of the lens holders that...

Lamphouse???

I would say that 11 minutes is actually overdeveloped and not under. If Efke at 100 w/rodinal 1:50 is 11 minutes then shot at iso 50 the time should be shortened by 20-30%. Giving times of 8:45 and...

Arthur

Mitch,
I was thinking of going out late in the day tomorrow. Shooting around Madison SQ park.
If interested send me a message.
Arthur

Here is one of mine. Taken with a paper negative in my 2x3 Speed Graphic. The lens is the front of my binoculars. Liked it so much it is now my business card.

Alan,
I have a ride for you on the 23rd. Where does the NJ train leave you?
What time are we planning to meet in Kingston?
Is the diner still the meet up place?
Arthur

I may be able to give you a ride. I am hoping that my friend has a car, but if not I will most likely be renting a car. We can split the costs 3 way. Let me know if this works for you?

Arthur

Sure rub it in. The 23rd is good for me. What about all of you other guys??
Eddie

Arthur

The more the merrier. We now have to pick a date?? How about one of the 2 listed above?
Arthur

Bridges and buildings would be great. I am in for 2 people. How about a date?
Eddie how many people have shown interest?

Arthur

Here is one of my negs scanned and fiddled with.
Arthur

I have gotten it to work. I just treat the paper neg as a picture, scan, flip and invert then go to work on the contrast, etc.
Thanks again
Arthur

Thank you all for the great info.
Arthur

Any further thoughts??

I use RC paper for my negs. so will the oiling work? Or is the oil best with FB paper negs? Would I place anything on top of the negative to protect the roof of the scanner door?
Arthur

Helllo All,
Just received my Epson 4990 and have started to try to scan paper negs. I am having no luck. Anyone out there doing this? Please help. Any help on where and how to start would be...
