    My lessons learned first time doing Large Format photography

    Learn the convention for the dark slide color being out. White side out and black side out. That will save you grief and double exposures.

    Leica series 8 on Hasselblad SWC C?

    You need a B50 to series filter adapter. B50 filters, when you can find them are usually cheap.

    Beware Amazon fulfillment of Ilford Paper order

    The OP's problem was because of a clerk at the store, not Amazon's fault. However I have had more than a few badly packaged items which were packed at an Amazon facility.

    Nikon F 2 shutter cocked too long.

    The tempest in a teacups, has passed. 1/250 and 1/500 are ok for NIkon and Hasselblad lenses are design to be stored in the cocked configuration. Now only the Canon and Leica owners will not sleep tonight.

    Single grade FB papers

    Exactly as expected because grades 4 and 5 take more exposure. So nothing new here folks, keep on moving along.

    I use the magenta first so I see "if I print for the shadows then the highlights haven't got enough exposure to show" more often than the "shadows would block up before the highlight tone was right". For the doubters, it is like having sex, you actually have to do it to understand the...

    Nikon F 2 shutter cocked too long.

    It may depend on the camera. Hasselblad cameras and lenses are specifically designed to have the shutters cocked when stored. I do not know about the rest.
