I switched from iPhone to Android. The app I loved called Viewfinder was able to store all my cameras, lenses, and film types. The viewfinder would display the format of the camera and lens I chose....
I know this is an old thread but I wanted to weigh in because I loved the smoother unique surface of version I now it looks like everyone else's semi gloss. I hate it compared to version I.
...
Thanks for all the great info everyone!
Hi All, I’m just starting with 4x5 and am wondering about image circle specs. I have no idea what I need and is it apparent when looking at the viewfinder if the lens is to small in that regard? So...
I don't have a Graflok back it's a spring loaded back called a Graphic. I was able to attach to My Graphic back with no modifications at all. See photo
Thanks Steve, I ended up using a rubber...
I just purchased a Polaroid reflex viewer to use on my Graflex Graphic View camera. Watching a modification video I discovered it was used with the version 2 with a Graflok back. Does anyone know if...
That's some sick humor there Jim.
Hi Mikey,
You could post one of your shots here if you like. I sure would like to see your results. You have a much larger lens than me and smaller filter size but still am interested. I asked...
I have an Ektar f7.7 203mm On a Graphic View. The lens is very small diameter, about 33mm o.d., and I’m wondering if graduated filters will work on it. If not how big of a lens will I need, and give...
Hi All,
I have a 4 x 5 Graghic Veiw fitted with a Kodak Ektar 203mm lens. I have only shot it in the studio to check focus. My only other experience with a 4 x 5 was with a Linhof Field camera....
I may share some more images from the Navy years. I’m wondering which section would be best to post the thread.
Thank you!
Thanks, I haven’t found the negative yet. This was copied from an 8x10 print.
We have been on quarateen started March 16th. I have been taking advantage of the free time working on personal photographic projects. One of which is digitizing family photos, slides, and negatives....
Good idea, or maybe I’ll have a n air filter built in since it will be mostly new construction.
Oh, well thanks Dugan. I don’t have any of those but now I know what to look into.
This came with a Graphic View 4 x 5 camera and I can't find any info about it.

Nice, mine will be nearly the same @ 10 x 13, with the same setup. However I do have to share with a washer and drier that will be were you are sitting. Construction should have started this month,...
Hi all,
I have made a studio test negative shot with my first 4 x 5 camera. It came out looking very good and I want to see how it prints. I will be using a Durst Pictograph Enlarger. i have all...
I need to be shot. Here it is, and the streaks are from a 20th Century holder Jerry told me would work with the Kickstarter. Well as you can see it doesn't. It holds the film on both sides by about...
Ha Ha darn, I don't know how I missed attaching the image.

I'm setting up my processor so I shot this to test the development time. This is a straight raw dslr scan with no post processing. I'm going to print it in the darkroom tonight. Film is FP4+.
Just talked with Jerry. He said my issue is with using Reverse Osmosis water. Here is his quote.
I already ordered the parts so I’ll just inventory them. I’m going to try it later today. I’ll...
I just ordered two new optical sensors and capacitors for the selector valve circuit board. I ill rebuild this, start using tap water, and cut back on the photo flo concentration. I'll report back...
I think the reason it won’t quit pumping during the dump test is that I’m using RO water. I’m going to try tap water now. I have also discoverd the selector valve doesn’t line up.
Not 100% sure. I did see corrosion on #4 connection which I cleaned and re soldered last night. I’m checking all the sensors for correct levels now. I’m not sure if it’s possible to check the...
I have been trying to get a Sidekick SSK-8R processor working. After correcting heating and hose routing issues I’m still getting check solution errors and streaks. The first check solution is when...
Houston we have flash. Took this at 1/200th and processed in a Sidekick which I haven’t got completely working yet.

This iPhone capture looks like crap. The Ektar lens seems to be razed...
Great advice Bob, It does appear the shutter is fully open during the flash output. The timing amy have been off for you to catch my comment about that, above yours. :-):rolleyes:
about that
Man my memory is getting bad. I just got this back less than a month ago from service. I think the tech may have asked me if I wanted it modified. I just read a thread that said there was a later...
Mine has a button. I have no idea what it does and can't find a user manual for this shutter. I just did a quick and dirty connection to test it. My studio strobes fire fine with either setting. I'll...
Thanks, Here is a link to the one I would need. https://paramountcords.com/product/bp-pf-bipost-to-pc-female-6-inches/
My shutter has F or M.
Wow, I think I can dig one one those up! I...
Hi all,
I want to use my Kodak Flash Supermatic Shutter f7.7 with my studio strobe. Can I buy an adapter for a male PC flash sync cable or do I need a whole new cable? I don’t know what you call...
I have one and I also have a 20th Century Camera QL45-P quickload. I have only loaded one sheet into the mod54 and thought it would be a pain loading all 6 sheets. I haven't used the CC Quickload but...
I haven't been in a darkroom since I was a teen and I have no idea what type of stock I used back then. I have recently started doing analog printing and up until now have use ilford MGRC. I like it...
Hi All,
This is my first real post after my new member introduction. I just purchased my first enlarger. Up until now I have had the good fortune of being given enlargers and darkroom equipment. A...
Thanks mark, interesting you recommended that book. My mother had her best friend send me 6 boxes of stuff from her fathers camera collection. One was full of books which included, Using the View...
Thanks Andrew!
