    Black and White Films With Two Emulsions

    Before Kodak Verichrome Pan there was a Kodak Verichrome, but I never used it. I read about it, so the information is still available if you want it.

    Pre wash or no pre wash ?

    I use the Jobo processor and I prewash all color and black & white film except Kodak Tri-X 400 which will be developed in replenished XTOL following both Kodak and Jobo advice. The effectiveness of prewashing discussions on Photrio often gains religious belief, so be careful what you ask for.

    Developing B&W 4x5 Film

    After I went from trays to various tanks, FreeStyle recommended that I try the Jobo processor with the Jobo 3010 Expert Drum. I quickly found out the with that drum I could develop color or black & white 4"x5" sheet film easily and consistently.

    Black and White Films With Two Emulsions

    If I remember correctly Kodak Verichrome Pan was a two layer film with each layer having its own ISO. That allowed simple box cameras such as the Kodak Brownie Hawkeye to take photographs over a wide range of lighting, and that allowed box cameras to be practical and useful.

    Light leak/ development issue or something else?

    Look to the ends of the camera, left and right. Either to door opening or the hinge are leaking light.

    Best screen resolution for RAW files

    I have only one computer monitor for my Mac computer and it is a nice large size. I do my editing on that computer and that screen. I am not going to testing and buying one screen after another searching for the mythical better or perfect screen. I would rather spend my time and money with...

    Kodak no longer following "2 year rule" for expiration dates?

    I buy my film only from stores that have the equipment to keep all film in temperature controlled storage. That helps reduce the risks, not eliminate all the risks though.

    Cleaning SLRs and repairing damage caused by battery electrolyte: Reporting about probably the most common DIY activities

    I attempted to resurrect a Nikon SB800 strobe by removing the exploded batteries and cleaning the residue with contact cleaner. I did not open the body and the job was unsuccessful. :(

    Getting ready to do my first "project".

    You may want each month to be seasonal: that is Spring months with flowers, Summer months with appropriate lighting, Autumn with Fall colors, and Winter with snow and ice.

    Kodak no longer following "2 year rule" for expiration dates?

    Since all newly purchased film goes directly into my freezer, any change in Kodak's dating policy will not impact the way I store and use the film.

    Do you have a dream camera that you don't own?

    While the near-silence of a rangefinder is smaller, lighter and quieter; I prefer the SLRs because I find the split window hard to focus in dim light.

    Testing lenses at home?

    As an alternative to home testing for each lens, ask yourself if you are happy with the results you get for all your prints and-or slides? Are the corners sharp enough? Are you happy with the areas that are out of focus? Are you happy with the areas in focus? Such evaluations may well save...

    Bronica S2 Leaving Shutter Cocked

    One That pretty much answers the OP's question. So when one is going to put the camera away for a while, one should remove the back, fire the shutter and put the film back on the camera. One bit of Hasselblad advice to use it to fire all the Bronica lenses with the smallest aperture and set on...
