Finally, after what feels like years, I've pinpointed the problem; the yellow filter isn't moving correctly. Even though it appears to when I observe it, it's just not showing up in the prints. I've...
Oh, I get a difference when making filter adjustments, but even at a setting like Y:5 M:10 it's still WAY to blue/cyan. I've checked the filters again, and they seem to rack back and forth the...
I am getting the same color balance no matter what variable. It has to be something with the enlarger! I'll start quadruple checking the lamp,socket, and filters tonight. No idea how to go about...
I'll go back over the functions of the filters, but I don't really know what I'm looking for past the filters moving when I turn the dials. Maybe the lamp isn't seated right, the socket looks very...
I have tried pre-soaking, washing between each step, NOT washing between steps. I have tried measuring chemicals with a digital scale and measuring with graduated measuring cups. I mix the chemicals...
I have tried Silver Pixel, Kodak, Tetenal, and arista? chemicals at several temperatures with tap, spring, and distilled water.
What should I be looking for when I check the lamp socket? The filters appear very clean, and rack back and forth accurately or so it seems- meaning, that when the filter is at 0, the filter is...
Hi guys!
Since moving my darkroom, I'm having real color balance issues that I believed were being caused by the new fuji crystal archive paper, or possibly silver pixel chemistry. The enlarger is...
Indeed it might- I'm located in the southeastern USA.
Hi guys, I have a chamonix 45-n1 with focus issues that do not seem related to the whole fresnel situation. I've tried it without the fresnel, and with 3 different GGs and I'm still getting wonky...
I have a durst laborator 1200 that I use for MF and 4x5 that is now giving me newton rings on ALL of my medium format negatives. The negatives are between two glass inserts in the carrier, which has...
I was going through that thread and stumbled upon this photo:http://www7.xitek.com/forum/200911/235/23561/23561_1257556742.jpg
What is that thing??
Great info here, thanks guys!
Looks like the chamonix has no votes so far, which is interesting.
I was wondering how these cameras stacked up to one another. Unfortunately, a Ritter 810 just isn't going to happen, but the Chamonix seems like it could be a very nice camera.
Have any of you...
... available where? I thought pro s was 4x5 and smaller only..
Just in case anyone cares, I solved the mystery. It's a hassy V series with a 645 back! Thanks for everyones help
Cheers
They are rectangular and looks to me like 645 or 6x7.. I can't find a link to the feature, sorry.. I don't think the gx680 has much in the way of edges, not sure though.
Lenser, it was shot by con poulos- and he does not return emails unfortunately.
Can I move the thread to the lounge myself? I don't mind...
The ones I'm seeing look very similar to the RZ, but has two hassy live V lines at the bottom. Maybe these are faked from a hassy, but the feature was shot with film, so who knows...
I'm pretty sure that MF cams each make a fairly unique mark. The RZ is very distinctive, and quite different from the mamiya 7 etc. The film edges in this feature were not faked btw, and even if...
I know this isn't LF related, but I'm curious. There is a feature I'm looking at in a magazine, and the frame edges were left in a number of the shots. I'm interested in finding what camera was used,...
Jobo + Kodak Chems (or possibly trebla) with an expert drum. Don't kill those iceland negs.
What is that thing?? I must have it!
I shoot mostly medium format film, but if I get enough time and don't have to do the shoot over email- I'll shoot 4x5. We almost never get a preference, just a 'deadline'. So, if I have a little...
The Zone VI doesn't power the enlarger's power supply when you turn it on. I assume it's supposed to keep the power supply on, so that when you start the timer the bulb doesn't slowly come up to full...
So, I finally found a decent enlarger locally! It's in great condition, from a single owner (and nice guy to boot). Now I'd like to find a simple timer that is compatible with the CLS 500 head, as my...
Holy Crap! I've been looking for information like this since last january!!@#$ THANKS STEPHEN!
I'm actually in athens, so not really 'middle'... Been working on a project based on the Oconee river for about 8 months now, all c41 4x5.
Cheers
Hey there welly! You'll find lots of good info and great people here..
(I'm the dude from #photogeeks btw)
Cheers!
The 45s head that I got has one power cable coming out of the right hand side that powers the unit on and runs the fan. There is a three prong port on the bottom of the left side that says it's for...
I sent you a PM smells like fixer...
I recently bought an older version of the 45s head, but I suspect there is a cable missing. I have the power cable which turns the head on, but there is a 3 wire plug on the underside of the head...
Yeah, it's not looking like a viable option. I got a 45s head for it, which hopefully I'll have up and running by the end of the year!
Gourmet was one of our major goals, and we were pretty shocked when it went. Romulo Yanes is a huge influence to myself- I hope he starts to shoot for other mags!
Me and my stylist have only been...
there are AN glass holders for most 810 enlargers... I have a glassless for my beseler 810, and it is nearly useless if you like edge to edge sharpness! Can't seem to find a AN glass holder for less...
Whoa, $1.30 per sheet for 4x5, that's an awesome price. Have you used reedyphoto for 4x5 c41 before Kirk? How was it?
Cheers
I really didn't think a color 8x10 would work with the mxt chassis. The 45s head comes up quite often for reasonable prices, and thankfully I can cut a square hole in a piece of wood (with some...
Ok, so finding a viable 8x10 color enlarger is not in the cards in the foreseeable future. However, I am now looking for options to put some sort of color head on my current enlarger, which is a...
I'm taking a bit more time to research, and see if I can really 'afford' to go with a bargain. Having absolutely no ability to repair, or modify some old clunker- I think it might be better just to...
