Hi all,

My question is about signing prints, more specificly about dating the print.

In this case, the negative was exposed in 2008 and printed as normal darkroom silver gelatin print. Now, in...

I don't think I could upload the file here without violating the copyright of other people. If I get your email address I could send it to you.

I have several of them, originally bought a couple from Robert White and later some more second hand. Also Christoph Greiner sold them in Germany. I find the Quickchange holders quite reliable and...

It replaces the controller, it's connected to the Ilford power supply. It's very convinient in use.

During my years in science lab I have made hundreds of density gradients by pipetting salt solutions of decreasing concentrations (KBr) on top of each other in centrifuge tubes. It had to be done...

Reinhold,
This is great, like it very much. The horizontal curves fit nicely to the picture format.

A while ago I noticed the Italian Gibellini Projects & Co and their LF cameras. I'm considering to get the 4x5" ACN45. I know they are quite new and there might not be too many out there. But, I...

My L1840 has been waiting in the darkroom for some years in a dissembled condition. Now I have decided to to get it working. The problem is the motor moving the head, it only works in one direction,...

Could someone inform about the center plate mounting size in the Feisol CF-3372 tripod. I'm asking because I would like to know if the Burzynski ball head could be used with this Feisol tripod also....

This has been a very interesting thread to follow with all the details. I feel I have learned a lot. I'm very much in the same situation as I have just recently got my hands on a Durst 1840. I have...

Mine arrived this morning. The camera is really light and looks so nice. Thanks to Hugo for organizing this! It's been very interesting to follow almost online how the cameras travelled from China...

I could provide you Ansco 130, chemicals weighted in separate doses with instructions for preparing and use. The price is 12,50 Euro + shipping/ litre. It's not in UK but Europe anyhow. It should be...

Thanks for the info, Arne. The thread size is 70x1 as it is a Carl Zeiss Jena lens. This helps me alot.

Hi,
Maybe someone could tell me the mounting thread size of the apo-Germinar W 8/150mm lens? This is the huge barrel lens (Carl Zeiss, Jena). I have the lens but no precise means to measure it. I...

I can close my Toyo 45A with Congo 6,3/90mm, Yamasaki 4,5/135mm (in Seiko shutter) and Fujinon W 6,3/150mm in recessed lens boards but not with Nikkor W 135mm.

regards

Antti,

Where do you live? You may want to attend our printing workshop in August. It will be a long weekend including: exposure and overall contrast control, dodging, burning, flashing, fiber...

Thomas, I don't think you had to pay 1600? for Super-Symmar XL 110 in Germany. After long thinking I recently decided to order this lens from Christoph Greiner in Germany (have not received it yet)...

Wayne, you have right! I did some calculations and found that the table is for sodium carbonate. The molecular weights for anhydrous and monohydrated forms are 106 and 124 respectively, and the ...

The molecular weight of anhydrous sodium sulfite is 126 whereas that of monohydrate is 126+the water 18 = 144, so you need 144/126 = 1.14 times the amount of monohydrate to get the equal amount of...

Yes, it will, but only in extreme cases. A couple of years ago I bought my Toyo Field 45A secondhand. It came with an older 135mm Yamasaki lens mounted on a recessed lens board and this combination...

As far as i know the Sinaron objectives are produced by Rodenstock and all the s pecifications I could find on Sinaron SE objectives seem to be identical with Ap o-Sironar S's (weight, angle/image...

Paul,

I hope you will report more about your results with this Tele Congo lens. I have been looking for a longer lens to my Toyo 45A. A Fujinon C 450 would be nice but it would need the back...

In my first comment I forgot to mention that in Europe DiXactol can be ordered directly from Mr. B. Thornton, address: Fine Print Photographer's Workshop, P.O.Box 17, St. Pierre Parkwall, Caldicot,...

I have used DiXactol for some films and it seems to work fine but have not yet done any systematic comparison with PMK Pyro. DiXactol was invented by the British photographer Barry Thornton and...
