Fresh dry plates in a variety of sizes

[Steven Tribe]

It is obvious that there will be a lot of to and fro-ing between this thread and the image thread - and with the "other format images" thread - when that gets started. But that is no real problem. I think there will be a lot of 1/4 plate postings eventually and there are a lot of 9x12cm cameras in use in Europe which just come under the 4x5" restriction!

All good Neil. I don't make any rules here.

And thanks for posting!

As I posted in the image-sharing thread:

I've moved a block of posts about plate sizes to the "New Products" thread.

This is a wonderful initiative and we wish it all success. But in the criteria that we use for managing the Forum these plates are not fundamentally different from sheet film. So let's please stick to our established rules - image threads, segregated by 4x5 or larger (LF) vs smaller than that (everything else), for pictures and discussion closely linked to the pictures; technical threads for discussion of technical issues in exposure, processing and printing of the plates; and the New Products thread for discussion of product specifications, availability, etc.

Thanks.

A couple of my Ilford NOS lantern slides have the original packing around the box and enclosed were the instructions and emulsion details which may (or may not) be helpful. The development times match quite closely the minutes I have been using in the "dark

Steven, Thanks for posting the data sheets. I cannot read these on my iPhone SE and even this 24" monitor has me squinting close to the screen.

That's why I posted my Stanley Dry Plates Data sheets larger. I shot mine using the above bargain priced phone.

I made mine too big.

I started a group on facebook so folks (not just on this forum) can share results and information on using these dry plates. It should be a little easier to share info than through the Pictoriographica page I set up (I would have to micromanage the page for it to be as effective as creating a group).

I posted your Etsy link on FB Graflex Camera Group yesterday. At least one person was waiting for delivery.

Awesome. Unless I shipped out their order today, they will get plates coated with the new emulsion batch (# 007).

Looking to pick up some 5x7 plates but your store wouldn't let me order. Any idea when they will be back in stock?
