I do tray development and I switch on the light after 2 minutes of continuous agitation in the fix. I do not agree with the suggestion that the film can be exposed after the stop. Stop stops the...

Amazing. I did not expect a conversation on the merits of rotary versus non rotary method of development to become a debate on who invented the "taco method". As far as I can remember Jay DeFahr was...

135mm apo-sironar-s and just in case I keep a 90mm f8 nikkor. However, 135mm does what I need.

I am not sure whether you use tray or hanger to develop your film, but I use tray method. I notice that your best solutions are spread out in various replies above. I used to have this issue with...

Hmmm... perhaps I've been lucky the last two times with my tripod on airplane. I should just check it in, or cut down my caffeine consumption.

As long as it confirms to the length/width restriction, it should be fine. In case of any issues you can also check it in at the airplane door along with the folding toddler strollers and such and...

Calumet might still have it.

Absolutely, that is why they are called press camera.

I disposed off the rangefinder in my crown long back to reduce on the weight. But I think I remember that both the batteries goes in the opposite way and it does not matter which ever way the...

Sebastião Salgado is another photographer who just hires a developer / printer. Guess they just do not have time to think of developing and printing processes. This strategy is well justified by the...

Calumet in the USA. Do not know about their shipping to Australia.

Here is one I did in the last 20 minutes. I was just itching to try a monobath. So I prepared a solution of 8ml of HC110, 8ml of ilford RF and 2.5 g of sodium hydroxide. Then I caught this picture on...

An often ignored lens - Optar 135/4.7. It remains one of my favorites both for the images and its weight. This was either my first or second picture I ever took on a large format. Of course true to...

A small park bridge over a stream that you can hop across. Little Yellowstone Park, North Dakota. Toho FC45 (mini) with Apo-Sironar-S 135. Pict take at f45/1sec. FP4+ developed in HC110(1:100)...

Last time I bought it was in November 2009 either from B&H or Calumet. I believe Calumet still has some in stock, so does Freestyle. However once they run out of stock, they may never ever be able to...

Think it was discontinued as far back as 2006. However lots of places had stock till very recently. Guess Fuji wanted us to Velvia 100s.

Samy's has some I guess. Give them a call before you order online. They might not have...

Last week I got a couple of packs from adorama. They were 'process by 11/2009', but I am guessing they will do just fine.

I usually do landscapes and portraits. 105/4.5 Tominon landscapes are no good in 4x5 causing soft corners almost to the extent of vignetting. But portraits are decent. Closeups, on the other hand,...
