Door #3

As discussed previously, it has been noted there is a contaminant that causes it to turn brown when mixed. However, I have used it and it still works fine.

Good point Doremus about getting lost in the rabbit hole. At my level of experience I should probably take a more lenient approach initially instead of trying to fine tune things prior to going out...

My best guess is the SET might be useful for eliminating the enlarging time as a variable when determining film development times for N+ and N-.

Everyone...my apologies for sending you down the wrong path. See, I warned you this was new territory for me. :) What I should have said was Standard Enlarging Time (SET). I was trying to find...

Ok, so this is new territory for me. In an effort to gain more control over my exposure and development process, I am trying to find my film speed (.1 over film base + fog) for TMAX 400. With the...

Thank You!

I called the "Formulary" asking what ingredients I needed to mix my own Dektol but because it is proprietary they did not know which ingredients are included.

On a related note, what would a good scale cost?

Today I mixed yet another contaminated (brown) batch of Kodak Dektol. I finally reached a point of frustration which is driving me to try an Ilford paper developer. I primarily print on Ilford...

There is a 9-23-2020 post about this...hope that helps. I would attach but don't know how.

Just be careful to not agitate photo flo solution too vigorously...it will foam.

Dang, just purchased 3 bags today. Sent email to address above...will keep you updated.

Anyone know of a lab I can send my 4x5 negative to so I can get a reading? Looking to find base plus fog negative value 0. Interestingly, I nave vision problems where I have trouble differentiating...

I have a question relative to having a business card created, so I hope it is appropriate to piggyback onto the original question.

I am a bit hesitant about including my personal information on a...

Greetings everyone:

I would like to reach out to any LF photographers in the area. I am familiar with 35mm but new to LF. I have some gear and finishing up on my darkroom since recently moving. ...

Thanks Alan, I know that area well...I am near 6 Flags.

Hello everyone, I'm very excited about becoming part of this group of LF enthusiasts.

I am recently retired and have had an interest in B&W photography for 40 years and LF for about 20. However,...

Drew, how do you have your golf cart configured? I am contemplating the same approach, but have not been able to figure out how to do it?
