I would have thought that the charging 'intelligence' would be in the Quantam rather than the charger?

Cheers Dave

Good point but I have already established that it is centre pin positive.

Thanks Dave

Thanks Dennis.....That's very useful. The problem is with the ones on fleabay is that they are all in the US and 120v input...I'm in the UK at 240v input but there are loads of 12v/500ma psu...

Hi All, Using a Metz 45 CL-4 I have bought a used Quantum 2 battery pack to power it. It needs a new battery (8v 3.2 ah) which I can get but it will come without a charger. Can anyone tell me the...

I used to use a Jobo ATL-3 with an expert tank that held 6 sheet of 5X4........Simple, it's fully automatic.....Set the program of your choice running and go and make a cup of tea. If you can get...

Hi, Can anyone suggest the best tool to use to cut a hole in a metal lens board to fit a Copal 1 lens please?

Thanks Dave

Unless your subject is closer than in your case 1.35 metres...Forget bellows extension factor...end of

Cheers Dave

Exactly !

Cheers Dave

Assuming your lenses are mounted on lens boards....Why would you want to surround them in foam?

Cheers Dave

Update......I used Newton Ellis and was very pleased with their service. A bit slow to tell me I had to phone them to pay by debit card but now a perfect Super Angulon.

Cheers Dave

Hi All, I have just purchased a Super Angulon 90mm lens which is fitted with a Copal 0 shutter. The shutter blades and iris blades have come dislodged from their fixings. I have watched a video on...

I have just taken delivery of the bubbles from Germany that are on fleabay and they are the correct size, fast delivery and are the fraction of the price of the official Sinar ones. SORTED.

Thanks very much for the offer Leigh but I have ordered the ones on fleabay and will see if they are suitable first.

Cheers Dave

For the bubbles

Funnily enough I spotted that site as well BUT 6 new levels @ $50 a time plus postage to the UK (I only paid £125 for the camera!)

Cheers Dave

I have just taken delivery of a vintage Norma. All the bubbles have dried out and gone misty inside BUT one of the white plastic bubble holders is missing.

Does anyone have 1 (or 2) holders I...

I don't have a P2 but I have just taken delivery of a vintage Norma. All the bubbles have dried out and gone misty inside BUT one of the white plastic bubble holders is missing.

It seems that all the comments have now stopped......Thanks to all that contributed. I am leaning towards the Nikkor 90mm f8 lens but notice that the second hand price is virtually the same as the...

Thanks so far to all the replies (keep them coming) The problem is (as expected) that with all the recommendations I am confused as to which way to go!

I'm sure you will all agree that at the end...

A very valid point....I should have mentioned that I intend to do mostly architecture photography so rising front will be used in most cases.

Keep your comments/thoughts coming!

Cheers Dave

In a moment of madness I have bought a 5X4 Sinar Norma and intend to buy a 90mm f4.5 wide angle lens but am unsure if to go for a Nikon, Grandagon or super angulon.

Your thoughts please?

Hi All, I have just received a Durst M707 enlarger complete with colour head......I am just wondering if an AC-707 or Module 70 heads are compatible?
i.e. Is the M707 chassis the same as an AC-707...

Topic now transferred to the D3 thread:)

Cheers Dave

Hi All, I know this is more medium format than large format but the question is....Will a Durst AC707 head fit on an M707 chassis?

Any info appreciated.

Cheers Dave

Thanks for the info Guys....I have asked Harry on his site but have not had any response yet.

Being based in London UK.....I will probably make my own track out of 1.5mm aluminium strip as $75...

Thanks for that John....It seems that the numbering of the tracks needs a de-sphering machine to make any sense of them!

I really want to retain the auto focus (not because I think it is a...

I have moved this from the D5 thread as it is a D3.

Just a follow up............One track has 92S stamped on it and the other 102M. Not sure what focal length they are for?

Cheers Dave

Larry, Thanks very much for the scans.......I'm sure others will find it helpful as well.

Thanks again.

Hi, I've just won a Color Star 3000 analyser but I don't think it comes with a manual. Can anyone point me in the right direction for a download please ? or if anyone has an electronic copy, please...

I don't own a Color Star 2000 but hope to get one when the opportunity arises.....Could someone be kind and send me a pdf version of the manual please?

Thanks in advance Dave

Hi All, Can anyone advice me on the best chemicals to use to clean the inside of a roller transport paper processor please?

Cheers Dave

Tom, In a nutshell .....ALL of it. I have just got a 505 without any manual so the whole thing really. As far as copyright go I would have thought that would only apply if you copied it and were...

Still looking :cool:

Cheers Dave

Initially I would only want to use the 105 and 80mm Rodagon..........Are there any templates about whereby owners could 'cut-their-own' cams out of thin sheet ali?

Cheers Dave

I haven't noticed any 6 digit codes anywhere but the supplied 105mm lens is mounted on a cone so I can only assume (probably wrongly) that one of the runners is cut for it. Until I put a negative in...

Martin, Funnily enough Harry hasn't responded on his site (he may be away)

Thanks for your help.......The enlarger needs a bit of cleaning up before use but as I won it for 99p (I gave the guy £5...

Hi Martin, I think you are correct.....It looks like a D3.....The only reason I assumed it was a D5 was that that is what it says on the baseboard :eek:

Looks as though the cams are no longer...

Hi All, I have recently managed to get an Omega D5 enlarger that has 3 focusing cams/runners (don't know if that is the correct term) installed which the focusing roller fits on.

There doesn't...

Hi All, Does anyone have an operating manual for the ACP 505 paper processor please? either in electronic or paper format.

Any help appreciated.
