    In some countries even asking nicely and politely gets a strong negative reaction.

    Accidental Double Exposure On 14x17 Pinhole

    That is a lot of work and exercise to make a pinhole photograph. Is that what you do so that you do not have to go to the gym?

    Silly question: verify that onboard metering works, without film test

    Set the ISO to 400, then in bright sun with the shutter speed at 1/500 the f/stop should be f/16.

    Stop Bath.. How important?

    Oh yes, PE wrote extensively about pin holes from improperly mixed stop bath. Do a search on this website. PE wrote extensively about using stop bath, its advantages, when to use stop bath with color film processing. A little research could save a lot of speculation posting.

    Stop Bath.. How important?

    Stuff I learned here from others. I have never had the problem, but then I use Kodak film, Ilford film and Rollei IR 400 and not the post Soviet manufacturer. I also mix chemicals to the manufacturers' specifications.

    Decided to take a closer look at Pyrocat-HD, various dilutions & continuous agitation

    I am looking forward to that. That means not worrying about the temperature of the developer.

    Kodak Plus X- How I Miss This Film

    The two emulsion layers is what made Verichrome Pan so versatile and forgiving when used in box cameras.

    What do you guys prefer a Leica M3 or a Nikon F?

    But the view is not exactly what the lens sees. I want to see what the lens sees and what the focus looks like. While I can put on an adapter back and a prism on the SWC, I then use the view finder just to see where the edges will be.

    Stop Bath.. How important?

    Pin holes arise in poorer films and/or when the stop bath solution is not properly mixed, that is too strong.

    Stop Bath.. How important?

    Stop bath neutralizes the developer in the gelatin period. That is a fact. This is part of stop bath's purpose. Water rinsing will not do that.

    What do you guys prefer a Leica M3 or a Nikon F?

    I have passed over all the 35mm range finders because I do not want my lenses limited to the 35mm to 135mm range and because I want to see what is in and out of focus.

    When you print some from the 1960's I would like a reproduction box.

    Question: Where to find pictures of Ansco memo film boxes?

    Ansco 550 T was one of my films of choice for available light night photography. I used the film and threw out the boxes. Read what I post, not what you would like to read into it. Sorry if I hurt your feelings.
