    Is this fungus/mold on metal?

    List of Infrared (NIR) films

    I suggest you look at the websites with articles about each film, R23, R25, R29 and 720 taken of one scene and then the series with other scenes. I use each of the filters, usually only on for each composition based on my accumulated experience with the film I am using. Each scene has is own...

    So you win the Mega Powerball what 35mm SLR would you bring back? Ower

    Is this fungus/mold on metal?

    A question about fixing (over and underfixing) paper and film

    Humidity tips

    Do not store lenses or cameras in leather cases. That goes for leather filter cases and view finders. Unfortunately some molds grow well in leather when the humidity is high.

    Digital back options for Hasselblad 500

    Will it have the same or better ability to work with C and CF lenses without problems that the 907 does? The initial price is about twice that of the 907 body from Samy's Camera.

    Wisdom of Buying a Leica M3

    Buying cameras as an investment is not a good idea. Only buy a camera if you will use it and enjoy using it. There are much better places to invest ones money.
