    Color Reversal (RA-4) using Afghan Box Camera

    This is about as near as to color instant photography. Just abt 5 mins to get a color print 'out of the box'.

    After a few sessions of exploring with friends aka RA4 Reversal gang, I learnt a few things and is now able to explore the process at home.

    In this video, I shared how I get a positive color photo using the homemade Afghan Box Camera

    Very cool. I am going to have to cut down some RA4 paper and try this in my LF camera.

    Very good Pound!

    I find reversal final prints to be counter intuitive by reducing exposure

    If i got that correct

    Years ago a member did B&W reversal in my old darkroom, so I saw the less is more conundrum

    I really like doing it all outside, in and out of the Afghan box

    Keep it coming, please!

    and now I regret giving away a big box of RA paper...when I moved

    Thank you. Good thing is fuji RA 4 papers is relatively cheaper than B&W papers. 100 sheets of 8x10 for abt $50usd on B&H
