Finding information about anything IFF seems about 10x more difficult than Durst - that said, there are only so many ways you can wire these things. A careful look inside should give you the answers...
The control at the bottom right lets you control the buzzer volume from off to very loud. Having worked with both, I don't particularly care for either version - but the plastic one is an ok process...
That would make 3 completely different series of lenses that Rodenstock gave the same name to...
Anyway, it's a fast Cooke triplet - and there are only so many ways to skin that cat - the Cooke...
Ysarex = Tessar.
I think the OP is referring to a Eurynar (not Eurygon, which is retrofocus) which is a 4/4 design - i.e. plenty sharp, but not as low flare as later 4/4 designs like the Apo Ronar...
I really doubt it's a prototype, the thing that's slightly puzzling is that the paint texture almost looks more like the later black paint than the Norma paint texture.
More importantly however,...
Resurrecting this thread as this is an example of the 'Simple Shutter' that Sinar made for the Norma, along with the more common one with full speed range.
'M' = 1/25
It's effectively a Sinar...
PQ Universal on HP5+ might also be an option, it'll give the highlights a good kick. Though I've often found that whenever people start stating they're significantly overexposing TXP, it's usually...
That's quite a denial of the methodology that Ralph Gibson used for decades, and which actually works to produce intense grain.
It just requires a bit of creatively applied understanding of the...
Fomapan does the job, on the understanding that if it was qualitatively level with HP5+, it would be at least level in price (Foma said as much) - but for the average 8x10 hobbyist, it's more than...
HP5+ isn't flat if you respect its relatively higher shadow speed and don't develop it in questionable concoctions.
From the sounds of it, you spent your time trying to negate TXP's...
They are nothing like as complex as some on this thread seem desperate for you to believe. With the right tools and a little common sense you can get them cleaned up and running much faster than you...
They can have a bit of backlash, but if well adjusted are pretty easy to land focus repeatedly.
You'd be more likely to knock your own head off centre...
I'd also like to know which Durst designer thought it was a brilliant idea to put the head turn lock control in a position on the left of...
How to state that you've never used a De Vere 504 without stating that you've never used a 504...
For the record, I do work with 138's as well as De Vere's and the Durst's biggest strength is...
KHB will be your best bet local to you (they even have a list of all the variants/ accessories De Vere did/ do for the 507) - unlike the bigger Durst condensers, all the De Vere condenser heads use a...
See if you can get your hands on the condenser head for the 507 - head changeover is ridiculously simple (thankfully). From what I recall, the condenser system had Rodenstock's involvement in the...
Compact: MPP Micromatic or the enlargers it was clearly licensed off - Omega E3/ E4. They have cam driven lens-matched autofocus and aren't huge. Heads are almost all cold-cathode. Column is more...
The 'stain' is really a coupler forming a dye via oxidation (and a not very good one at that). If there are higher levels of oxygen scavengers and the like in a coating structure, this will affect...
'Tipped in' is the phrase you're looking for. You paste the print down the edge nearest the book spine (and make sure your print paper's grain direction is correct) and stick it on. You can also...
OP's is the later column revision (the black/ grey paint ones as opposed to the cream/ brown ones) that has a different profile shape to resolve wear problems that emerged with the power/ autofocus...
It's one of the better ways of making one-offs and is not difficult if you have decent bookbinding skills or know a good bookbinder. The main thing you will rapidly learn is the need to compensate...
Remarkably good, with a few mild quirks. More power than an Ilford MG500.
It's absolutely fine for the job - the problem is there's a fair bit of contradictory information out there. And it isn't difficult to get a G5 filter to where you need it, if you really need it.
...
The baseboard is 60x60cm, the whole thing will easily fit in most estate cars, never mind a van, without removing the baseboard from the base casting. Do the least dismantling you need to.
As...
Speak with KHB Photografix before you move the thing. They will probably be happy to walk you through how not to hurt yourself or the enlarger.
De Vere's are not difficult to move if you aren't...
The MKV dichroic uses 2x250w, all the other De Vere made 504 dichroics are 1x250w. Not sure where you got the idea of 3x bulbs from.
August in Scotland, especially on the coast, is usually pretty sunny - maybe the odd downpour, but it's windy enough (particularly in the northern isles) that it's often gone much faster than you'd...
The city centre is relatively sheltered, but then you have to go to somewhere on The Scores...
I think you may have the wrong conception of 'rainy' - it's more that you can get all 4 seasons in an hour, delivered horizontally. If the weather really turns, it's not a case of bagging up the...
Someone is wanting to expend a lot of effort on persuading a horse to push a cart. Bottle of rapid fix (C-41 fix if you want near neutral pH - or TF-5), powder developers (XT-3 or D-76 etc) or one of...
Ask them - if they don't, it's highly likely that they'll know someone/ somewhere that will.
Have you tried Kama Pigments in Montreal?
Hasselblad, buy a 60mm (rather than taking 2 lenses) and a decent amount of film (if you're not a yelling idiot, getting film through airports is fine). Forgo the tripod. Maybe take a spare camera...
In decent condition, yes - 5108's can be twice that.
No, it doesn't, in fact it sometimes makes it easier.
Not easily or cheaply. The 504/507/5108/515 are modular, but there's a whole sequence of parts you need, along with some reasonably high...
It's about equal with the Ilford MG500 head contrast-wise - not used it for colour yet. More usable output than the MG500 too.
Much of the cost difference with the Heiland is likely due to the...
That looks like it's got a custom made De Vere mount on it for a 5108 (normally the 300 is the longest Rodagon the 5108 will take).
Trimount does all the things you need a dry mount tissue to do. Have used what feels like kilometres of the stuff.
The only other thing that might be worth considering before diving in on it is that the 1970's/80's electronics in the controller are a real potential failure point (currently dealing with an MG500...
The MG400 delivers 'G5' (ie when set to max Magenta) with current papers - the controller is confusing simply because the specific generation of Multigrade it was designed to complement topped out at...
