    Re: Photographs of Historic Buildings

    That's a handsome photo Matt. Timing is everything, as it's not possible in full foliage. I just got back from doing a bridge HAER in Coloma, Sutter's Mill, Marshall Gold Discovery Sate Historic Park...
  3. Re: 4x5 & 5x7 Negatives - Camera Scanning with Nikon D800E

    This is what the simple silicone bracelet looks like. I pick them up as giveaways at fairs, concerts, etc., and I use them to keep my lenses from creeping out of focus. You can use a rubber band from...
  4. Re: New HABS HAER HALS 100% cotton digital print requirements.

    A quick update after 5 years. After transmitting hundreds of "digital prints cards" to HABS, everyone I know, (including Jarob at HABS) has been, and is still using Epson 5* Ultra Premium...

    So as I said, I just invert as a preset in Lightroom. (either upon tethered capture, or afterward). I tried Negativelab, and was impressed by the software and interface, but by the time I tried it I...

    Yes.

  13. Re: iPhone - smartphone - scanning of 4x5 and 5x7 negatives.

    Update 2023: I now have an iPhone 14 Pro and the results are worse even though the sensor is "48 megapixel". Lots of interpolation of what should be sharp and not sharp. The new 1X "normal" lens is...

    Shaun, I looked at your website and your work would fit right into the HABS/HAER archives. I neglected to mention that one of the nice things about HABS/HAER/HALS donation is that you can pull LF...

    Toyo 125VX handle, strap transport.

  27. Re: Change of density at film hanging clips on dip-dunk processing

    Perhaps, but compression seems unlikely since after decades of similar clips being used on Refrema and Sitte-Tischer racks, I would think it would have been engineered out of the system by now if...
  28. Re: Change of density at film hanging clips on dip-dunk processing

    That's one of the things I was going to experiment with. Top of rack vs. bottom of rack occurrence. The top of the rack sheets are out of submersion in developer for longer than the bottom sheets...
  29. Re: Change of density at film hanging clips on dip-dunk processing

    The clips do seem pretty opaque (from a liquid perspective) and i was thinking that drilling a through-hole in each clip would improve drainage and maybe the tendency to hold chems. Just a thought....

    Just got a photo of the racks from the lab. They hold 10 sheets.

    Thank you for the compliment. I'll add that the nitrogen-burst agitation in these 40-inch deep tanks is pretty aggressive at 8 second burst then 8 seconds pause. I did a lot of tests after having...
  34. Re: Change of density at film hanging clips on dip-dunk processing

    I was thinking it might be a chemical crossover from the previous run, but since the result was mostly added density and not reduced density I couldn't see how that would happen. The rack (holds 8...
