Development times shorter than 5 minutes are more susceptible to artifacts related to tank pour in and tank pour out time and speeds, so I, as advised by Kodak et al, keep to longer development times. For me that means during the summer, developing earlier in the day, chilling the chemicals or...

I see Phoenix being much closer to traditional C41 print film than Lomo. Phoenix need some improvement in the antihalation layer to become a got to film for me. Phoenix is a quantum leap for Harmon to make as a first step and should be encouraged to grow and mature as an alternative choice to...

Exposure to the Sun can kill fungus, but if the fungus is built up it may not be enough on its own.

I tried an number of developers for film and paper, but for film I settled on XTOL and especially replenished XTOL [harder to get today so look for replacements by other manufactures which seem to work the same way, as reported on Photrio]. XTOL provides a small ISO boost which translates for...

Welcome back to Photrio and photography. My photographic interest wanes and waxes depending on my life situation, all though the tide changes decades apart. This is a good place to be to learn new techniques and knowledge to supplement your knowledge and experience. A few years ago I took a...

For Keystoning I use the f/2.8 28mm Nikon lens on my Nikon AF cameras or the moderate corrections available with my 4'x5" Pacemaker Speed Graphic. However for my Hasselblad, I have not prespective correction other than tilting the easel since I do not have enough need for it to justify carrying...

The feeling that one has been taken is a sinking one. I too am in the midst of working through my credit card company which has provisionally put the money back in my account. In my case the seller has claimed that it was shipped and received, however I never got a shipping notice and I did...

Welcome to Photrio. I use a Tessina camera which shoots half frame 35mm format film.

I always adjust the development time for the ambient temperature which ranges for me from above 20°C to 24°C and I have never had a problem by following the manufactures' data sheets. Above that high temperature the development time is too short and then there a problems such as filling...

Use: Clean the area Use clean flux Use only rosin core flux, never acid core If the solder joint is not shiny, then it is probably a cold joint. Reheat the joint until it stays shiny.

SOLD: two sets of 13mm/15mm/16mm Nikon Rear Bayonet filters Y44 Yellow, O56 Orange and B2 Blue filters in Nikon filter cases.

Develop normally and then take out the yellow cast with PhotoShop.

Also never hold a glass bottle or jar by the lid alone because if the lid is not completely tight there will be a mess to clean up. Even a tightened lid can let go.

Last week a two day expedited shipping from Arizona to California took 10 days due to the season glut of mail. It sat at the origin post office for two days before in was shipped out. Then two days in Phoenix Arizona before it moved again. Then a day without moving at the central Los Angeles...

In earthquake prone areas such as Pacific Ring of Fire areas [Example: Washington, Oregon, California, Japan] the use of glass for framing is discouraged and there are a wide selection of plastic products available: anti-glare, anti-refection, anti-UV …

One can accomplish the same multiple exposure capability by doing the following: After the exposure is taken, insert the dark slide, remove the back, turn the crank to cock the lens and release the mirror, then replace the back, and remove the dark slide. Definitely more steps but it will allow...

The bottom line: Are you satisfied? Are you happy?

I too do not use glass containers.

I especially appreciate because I grew up with a Border Collie I grew up with. He adopted our family. Of the five dogs I had, the only one I still think and dream about.

I now have a color head on my enlarger, prior to that I never had a problem putting the filters below the lens in a holder.

What L Gebhard said about how the film sheets sit is correct. I found that the Expert Drum lids fit very tightly and the lid removal pump is necessary. I have been very happy with the 3010 for years and it is the best development system for sheet film. Before I started with trays and worked...

I have been successful with after market lens hoods for Hasselblad and some of my 35mm lenses, but I am always careful to get lens hoods designed for a particular lens rather than taking a chance with a generic lens hood. Others do have good luck with generic 35mm lens hoods designed for the...

Enjoy! It does not seem like a scam now. Go shoot some film and report back. We are waiting as fast as we can.

I never use a squeegee, but I use a print roller on glass. Sometimes a print will stick and there are two ways to get the print off the glass: Pick at a corner of the print and peel it up. Usually that does not damage the corner. Gently slide the print to the edge of the glass and lift a...

I have know that I can recognize from a long is someone has been in the military by their posture. Going a step further many nationalities can be recognized by not just clothes but by posture alone. I have been told by locals which I had become friends with when I was out of my country, that...

Thank you. I am really enjoying your photographs. Please post often.

Get well soon. We have been keeping up with the latest approved COVID vaccines/boosters and have so far completely avoided it.

I have these "rainsleeves" for my Hasselblad. It will work better if you use a 45° PME or Prism. https://www.samys.com/s/rainsleeve

Welcome to Photrio. Best wishes in sorting out your great grandfather's equipment. I suggest that you send copies of the photographs to www.KEH.com to see if they can help you with the cameras and lenses, probably not the darkroom equipment.
