Yikes, that's bad Eddie! I've never seen anything of the sort, although I tend to use slavich papers and I rarely do ten at a time. There's probably a lot of variation between papers...

If you are seeing changes over 10-15 minutes when working up a batch of ten prints then perhaps your developer is exhausting. Please also be careful to keep exposed papers in complete darkness after exposure- a typical enlarger has a lot of light leaks, plus the light reflected off the paper...

Days or more should be fine. No problem.

Badger doesn't have 8x10 astia, as far as I know.

Yes there's plenty. As mentioned, definitely look at japan exposures for 5x7 provia and all the others. Shipping is not outrageous and I am always happy to share orders. I had a back made so that I could do one cut of 8x10... plenty of things available in 8x10 but not 5x7....

Thanks! More results soon...

There is no best. There is what you have, to be used properly, and that's all.

What about hypering it. Maybe that will bring it back...?

Thanks. The clay is, as far as I know, kaolin. I guess they bind it and deposit kaolin powder on the board and then sand it to a very smooth finish. In person, it looks like unglazed porcelain. I will probably put sandarac or something over it after it's toned. I highly recommend getting...

Thanks. We ought to have a firm link to all these classic youtube links...

The zoom's range is not exactly zoomy but it's nice for small adjustments.

Poor thing has cold toes, just look at her! Get her some slippers next time, okay? ;)Excellent work, of course. The image does have a historical, Steichen-esque feel. Truly grand. I love how she stands out by a good zone or 2 from almost everything else. Print please !

Thanks John, I appreciate it. I am continuing with this for sure. This is quite bizarre what I made, I must say. I keep looking at it trying to figure out why it seems so much more three dimensional than my paper prints of the same neg (granted those are on fairly textured kozo). Perhaps...

Platinum / palladium experiment on claybord, using a 4x10" neg previously posted.

Very clever, love the interplay between the subjects and the background. Keep going with this!

I think of acutance as the derivative (slope) of negative density across a sharp boundary that should reach theoretically DMax on one side and DMin on the other side of the boundary. So you put a sharp edge (knife) on the film, expose, develop, and see what you get. If everything were perfect...

10 miles away! UVa academical village.

I have had good results from the $500-600 mamiya 645 500mm f/5.6 lens on my Nikon bodies. It's not much bigger than a comparable 35mm lens. Manual focus though, of course. With my apologies for including test digisnaps... here's the scene with a wider lens...

This may at first sound like a very odd suggestion but have a look at the Nikkor 360T. It has a fairly gentle rendering, good neutrality, nice bokeh with a little bit of swirl, and the short bellows draw makes it easy to use in tight spots. (there was a url link here which no longer exists)...

You can shoot fuji quickloads in the 545....

The moon.

For environmental shots you'll probably want to go wider.

I'm talking about cameras Mark, not wives....

Actually I wonder if we shouldn't refer to this more correctly as TEOTWATKI ;)

Geez Ron WTF! Sorry TEOTWAWKI... TEOTWAWKI... come, oh Teotwawki, come save us from eternal pixelation....

Imagine, you arrange the ceremony on a beach and give everybody a holga and let 'em go to town. One spectacular orgy of unpretentious analogue photography. The anti-wedding.

I wonder if this unmentionable transgression might be of particular use with a maskless c41 material... Rollei D***base CN... Obviously the reason why this'd interest me is not to get lab-quality colour. But there are plenty of projects in my noggin, including 100% orthodox analogue ones, that...

Haha if only it were so! So does excess nose hair have something to do with compensating for losing smell? ;)

Good links, bedankt Sander.

So... and I know the gods will smite me for saying this but... we could just as well do c41 at room temp if we're going to use unmentionable processes anyway..
