Anyone know of a source for a replacement loose leaf binder for the Zone VI exposure record sheets. Six rings - evenly spaced - pages are about 3" x 5" - mine has broken beyond repair. I have spent a few hours with Google and have not found any binder small enough for the page. I would like...

Got my Granddaughter to sit for a few minutes while I used my 4x5 - I used a single flash and a white foam core reflector.

I have the same problem, before I start to make one - do you have any idea what it would look like? Does it use the v groove and small rollers like other De Vere heads, or is it some other design?

If you were to put one wide angle lens on a Gaoersi 4x5 camera - which one would you suggest? I am thinking about a wide angle between 75mm to 105mm - light weight and small filter size, but also enough coverage to take advantage of the lens shift built into the camera. Lens speed would not...

I am thinking about mounting a Ilford 400 HL variable contrast head on a Beseler 23C chasis - I know Ilford did make adapter/mounts but have no idea if they made one for a Beseler 23C, and if they did - what it looked like. Any help would be appreciated on how to put these two together...

Just as a point of information - the Rollei meter is both a spot and an average meter. I did find it very useful when using the bellows extensions. Also, if you set the meter and camera to the same shutter speed and use the stop down lever on the lens - it is very easy to get the correct f...

Many, many thanks! I had a UV filter on the lens and never even thought to turn the ring next to the lens. Robert

Which outer part? The outer most part has a white line for the distance mark - it does not seem to move. The second ring has the distance scale and it also seems to stop at the near far distance limits. The inner ring is locked with the silver tab at the bottom for the A B and guide number...

I also have just found one of these - anyone know how to reset the ASA setting - I don't want to force anything? Mine is now set at ASA 250 and for the life of me I don't see how to get it to change. My understanding is the F stop and shutter speed are set together by the meter. The arrow...

I have built a 4x5 LED head using 3 watt Lumileds and a buckpuck driver. There was a thread earlier this spring on it. It took a little longer to finish that I expected. Two problems I had to solve were light fall off in the corners with blue and heat. To even the blue light I ended up using...

You really just need a power supply that matches the bulb in the head. The Agfa C66 looks like this attachment.

I have an Agfa C66 with I believe is the same machine made for Agfa by Durst - it also had a built in probe/meter function. I took off the cover - removed the boards for the meter/probe circuits - used the remaining transformer to run power directly to the head. I have it plugged into a normal...

I am looking to get an autofocus MF camera - would anyone using either the Pentax 645, Contax 645 or the Mamiya 645 care to offer their opinions - features you really like, or dislike about the camera body. This would not be the only camera I would be using, just my tired eyes are asking for...

This is the part you need - holds the inserts for all formats. Robert

I have used the Horseman meter - it works like a film holder but only meters an area in the center - about the same area as 6x9. Meter readings were good for the times I used it. It is about 50% bigger than a film holder, so it was not something that I took into the field. I still use it if I...

I have a multipage repair printout - will scan and email it to you. I have a C66 that I converted to manual use a few years ago by removing the sensor/timer unit. Kept everything else and it works like a Durst (which it really is). Robert

I am tinkering with a Blue/Green LED enlarger head, thought I would share my progress as this has been discussed here a couple of times. I first started thinking about doing this after reading Huw Finney's article on his project, and other posts about using LEDs. What pushed me to start on...

I have this setup also - use it alot - I find the auto exposure settings quite useful and it also has an auto dark slide for changing the lens mid roll - something not found on other roll film rangefinders. It has a nice feel when hand held for portrait mode - but is a little awkward to hold...
