Wow, wonderful response, thanks alot.

And Jerry Bodine, right on the mark.

I've been testing my LF lenses with a Calumet Shutter Tester.

I'm not suprised by the variations I find but am wondering how much is an acceptable tolerance?

If a shutter fires at 95-105% of...

I sure do. How do you know him?

saverio,

I have no idea what the original price was but I bought an 8x10 Sinar P a few years ago. It proved more camera than I expected and I do not do studio work so it has set in a closet a few...

I just got back from B&H with film, etc. The 4x5 film (25 sheet box) was $10 cheaper at B&H than Freestyle. And if you spend over $100 (ain't hard to do) you get free parking for an hour or so.

Superbowl coming soon , I bet/hope she'll not let it go by.

Perhaps wear it in the front where no cop or thief would wear a holster.

For a shot like this would you, or did you use swing ?

I have a hard case to carry my 4X5 and I can stand on it to get 12 more inches of elevation

I have heard they are B&W widshield wiper motors.

I meant BMW

I've been using the TF fixers for a couple of years without a Stop Bath and can see no ill effects. From 1 minute fix into water holding bath for washing when I'm finished with the session.

I've seen your work. Your meter ain't broke..... dont fix it.

If #1 is the keeper, I would save #2 and wonder about an alternative development method to try some day.

Good for you! You all deserve some recognition.

Thank you for your responses, they are very appreciated.

thanks all,

I've been shooting a 4X5 Tachihara for a couple of years now and had a question I thought would answer itself in time and usage. It hasn't.

What are the numbers in the baseboard? Are they...

If you'd like to do some online comparisons, Badger Graphic sells new.

You should be able to compare high end hardware to help eliminate the "Out Of Sight".

Yep, I got one. I offered it for sale a year or so ago but had little interest so I just store it.

I can't speak to Franklin BBQ but the Salk Lick is worth flying to alone, and Ruby's is almost as good.

What about flatbed scanning (Epson 4990)? I don't do much of it and I always get confused. I think I've settled on emulsion to moving lamp.

That's interesting, I use the 2521 tank for up to six 4x5 negs and not had that problem

Jobo has taken a second look at Xtol developer and do not recommend a pre wash.

I'm using my second batch of Xtol. My film is Delta 100 at 100. I find temperature is a critical factor and there is not even a 2 degree variance allowance.
