    Kodak Xtol expired in 2017 - did anyone try?

    Welcome to Photrio! You have nothing to loose so mix up the XTOL, cut off some of a 35mm black & white film liter and develop the exposed film. If the film comes out dark and the edge markings appear, shoot a roll of film and come back to us with the results.

    Canon PowerShot: No more digital compact cameras with viewfinder?

    They all seem determined to make one use the screen and save them from the expense of supplying a viewfinder. 😠

    Rollei 135mm 400[asa] infrared

    I use the stock XTOL solution and follow the replenish XTOL instructions. Using XTOL alone, counting the number of uses and adjusting the development time works well but that that is a more costly method. Also, if you want to reply to a member use the @ sign before the names, as in @joho.

    Rollei 135mm 400[asa] infrared

    For years I have used this 35mm film and the 120 film and developed in XTOL and replenished XTOL. I shoot it at ISO 400, use a red filter [R23, R25, R27, R29 and 720 filters each with its own version of the infrared exposure] and adjust the exposure for the filter being used.

    Fire burns down Lodge Buildings in Grand Canyon North Rim

    I too was on the North Rim years ago. There are limited paved roads in the North Rim and it is remote. So only 10% of the Grand Canyon visitors make it there. It is an excellent place to do off roading with an appropriately equipped vehicle, but with the risks in off roading, one should do it...

    Recommend an Alternative Process - I have no Dark Room

    Darkrooms are expensive, not just in the money to collect the equipment and supplies; the space used by darkroom takes a toll on the space you live in the rest of the time that you are not in the darkroom. Consider using POP paper.

    Anyone Still Using Bronica?

    Actually when I was a teenager I wanted the Bronica S is the worst way, but no matter how much I saved, I could not afford it. So later in life I settled for Hasselblad, but the root of the love for Hasselblad is based in the Bronica s.

    If anyone would like more background about the other chemicals in dishwashing liquid, look at PE's [Photo Engineer's] posts. PE worked at Kodak on the R&D for many films including Kodachrome and Ektachrome and was our resident expert.

    What was your last piece of equipment that died and how did it die?

    I have been able to save the cameras that I have heavily used, but with respect to newly acquired cameras with problems, most of the time the camera was saved but some I had to give up on.

    Using Distilled Water For Development - Do You Still Use a Wetting Agent?

    I use PhotoFlo 200 with tap water. I would advise starting with PhotoFlo and compare the results with and without it.

    Anyone Still Using Bronica?

    his is my take on the story: The Hasselblad is the better camera, if the format is right for you, you hunt down one of the more recent bodies (501cm, 503cw, 200(0) in good shape) I recommend the 503 CX which is a CW without the power winder optionm [not a great loss]. I avoid the 200 series and...
