I must've over washed it indeed. I was unable to finish the whole process due to some scheduled meeting, so I left the print in the washer for almost two hours.

I'll try to do everything...

Hi,

Tired with glass and water tape air drying, I've given a try to the print dryer. I bought unused and built like a tank East German Ideal-D unit which looks like this:

Now, since...

Here's my stuff:

Locking bolt is in place, but I do not have tensioning lever - I need a wrench to move it.

Sinar - got fresnel, so it won't scratch the GG.

First of all - what magnification? Most common are 4x and I have one of them (plastic and cheap), but maybe stronger one would be more precise?

Which model is recommended - I'd rather go for a...

I've ended up with Sinar Pan/Tilt head. Manfrotto 405 was a disaster, even with F standards installed. It is simply too heavy, and the clamp is pretty tall making a hell of a lever which simply is to...

Hi,

I got a problem with this accessory - the bolt on the right side of the frame holding mirror is broken. Either I will be able to glue it (can be tricky, as there is really small surface...

Hi,

Just received NOS 1999 densitometer - never used, with invoices, manual, box, etc. There were no calibration strips included, but I checked it against Stouffer T2115 wedge and print density...

Hi,

Part of the plastic gear - curved one is worn out - when I turn the knob it clicks and does not move - it has to be pushed by hand. There are 5-6 teeth involved. It is not big deal though,...

Could someone explain what are those red, green and grey dot markings mean on the camera? Also - how should I use that slider on the focusing knob. It is related do DOF as I suppose and I guess that...

@Bernice - you mean, I have the newer one? The lifters are there, but what about meter back?

Got extensions, extra standard bellows, binoculars, rods for filters, lens shade:

For rear standard - the closeup looks like this:

Hi,

I've just received beautiful Sinar C. It looks awesome and works like a charm - every movement and adjustment like in swiss watch. Really fantastic machine. Looking forward for the first...

Hi,

Is there any way to develop LF film more or less in the same manner as 120 or 135? I planned to get JOBO 2500 series tak with sheet film reel, but I’ve read that it is intended to use with...

Bernice - thanks a lot. I got the solution. Hejnar has the plate almost identical in diameter:

What I need is one...

Thanks for explanations - I see now what it is all about. To begin with I'll start with my 405 head and round Arca plate and as the next step I'll get Pan Tilt, which is not expensive anyways and...

Could you please explain a bit what makes pan/tilt Sinar head so special and unique? It does not look as sturdy as my 405 head, but maybe there is something more?

Anybody knows what is the...

Hi,

What is the best way to connect the camera to the tripod? I've got Manfrotto 405 geared head converted to Arca type quick release system. As I saw, the monorail clamp has one single 1/4-20...

Hello Everybody,

I'm Chris, come from Gdynia, Poland and I'm just turning in to the dark side of LF ;) which I have tried to avoid by all means, but the destiny cannot be avoided.

I've been a...
