I’ve not used TF-5, but for years I used citric acid stop for prints, about 1 tablespoon per liter of water. No smell or fumes like acetic acid.

Take a look at Squarespace. It's easy to use and has templates that can be customized.

Mitch, I opened mine up and took a look for you. The top wire from the switch gets soldered to the bottom terminal of the ceramic block that is directly above the switch. The other wire is connected...

The camera and support certainly are nice, but I've been admiring the multi-drawer cabinet in the background. Sorry, I used to have an antiques business...

After reading the current discussion about the issues Koak/Alaris is having I thought it might be useful to gather together some recipes for easy to mix developers.

The simplest is probably D-23:...

If you don't get an answer here I recommend contacting Jimmy at B23 ApS Hasselblad Repair in Copenhagen. He is very knowledgeable and has parts for older scanners. He has helped me and was very nice...

You’re very welcome, I’m glad I could help.

There is someone in China selling on eBay who makes nice quality Imacon/Hasselblad film holders. He is happy to make custom sizes if he does not offer what you are looking for. I have bought from him...

Was this true for more than one camera? If only one was involved perhaps the front and rear standards were not quite parallel?

I also like Corran's answer

I use a 2018 Mac Mini in which I installed 16Gb of RAM for photo processing and it works great. I don't know enough to have an opinion on the new model.

If you are sending your film out of town Edgar Prauss can take care of whatever you need. I have used him for C-41, but he also processes B&W and E-6.

Might you be willing to DIY the tubes? If both ends are open you could simply heat Plexiglass tubing in an oven to about 160 degrees Celsius and then apply gentle pressure to deform the tube. This...

I have the beard, maybe I need a truck

I have never had any serious problems with official security/police. But, I have given up photographing in rural locations near where I live because guys in pickup trucks, and it was always guys in...

I would think Lexel would do the trick. It's easy to use and bonds to just about anything while remaining flexible.

Very beautiful—congratulations Merg. This is a wonderful tribute to your father

I see, thanks Jim

I develop in JOBO Expert drums, but the concept is similar. I use forceps to grab a corner of the film which then easily releases from the drum. I find forceps easier and safer to use than my fingers...

Thanks, I signed up! Should be interesting

After spending a lifetime in an antiques business I certainly have an appreciation for fine wood. That said, I much prefer metal cameras for their precision and just general feel when I use them....

There was the time I had my 4x5 Norma and new 110mm Super Symmar XL set up on a walking path in a large park, when a guy on a bicycle came around the bend going much too fast and plowed into the...

Try rotating the lens on the board 45º. You'll have more real estate to work with and you may not need any kind of adapter. If you do want an adapter the Gepe Mr Salomon recommended works very well.

Thanks I needed a laugh this morning! I was reading the news...

John you’re probably correct, but the little bottle of red was sitting on the shelf waving it’s arms saying “use me, use me!”

I had a similar problem and used Red Loctite to attach a flexible release extension. This was about 8 years ago and it still works perfectly.

I trust the seller will get back to you. He is happy to make custom sizes, simply tell him what you want. The quality is fine and when I ordered my custom holder he was pretty quick and easy to work...

So sorry to hear of Jan's passing Kirk. Penny and I send our condolences

Also Mcmaster-Carr has several to choose from, perhaps one is the type and size you need—

In my sink I made sure that it sloped to 1 corner about 1/8 inch per foot and installed the drain in the low corner as close to the edge as possible. I recessed the flange of the drain using a hole...

Thanks for the additional info on Mays Don. He must have been an "interesting" person. I photographed Norris extensively as part of a project I did on the uses of Eminent Domain. It has an...

Thanks Merg, I concur. I didn't realize I've been here as long as I have.

Happy Anniversary Large Format Forum!

It’s hard to imagine anyone using flash powder in the 1950s. There were many sizes of flash bulbs available, some of which were extremely powerful and didn’t threaten to burn down the premises.

Enjoy folks!

This is about all that's happening on my street lately, pretty quiet around here.

Definitely a street photo—I'm quarantined and can't get out as much as I'd like...
