Jay had contacted me about the StopLossBags™ after seeing one of my posts about them. They have made it much easier to extend the life of the stock XTOL and the replenished XTOL by squeezing out the air from the container.

Interesting. It is good that people capture the past before it is gone. Once it is gone, there is no way to bring it back again. I had never heard of this couple. Thank you.

Years ago I started down this rabbit hole and gave up in despair. It may have gotten clearer and simpler to do, but once I gave up, that was it. I realize that screen calibration is important but now I choose to just not bother since I do not print digitally. Best of luck digging through the...

The sleep cycle needs to be redesigned to draw less current or just shut down so that the battery is not drained. Another option would be to just turn it off between uses.

Eight years without a change so far.

No a life necessity. You are just stirring the pot, Cholent.

Not the same problem but when I bought my 4"x5" Graflex Model D it had the back modified with a rotation plate and accept the backs that are used on my Pacemaker Speed Graphic so I can just grab any film back or Grafmatic 45 for either camera.

It has been so long that your posting pushed me to find the manual for my Sekonic L-308S to check on how to change the battery whenever it gets to the point that I need to.

A traditionalist or a manual focus photographer.

That sounds like a lot more work than taking one exposure. Lets talk about this when digital has matured enough to handle a long exposure as easily as film does.

Much like when were were leaving a Sushi restuarant, one of the women was asked how she liked it. She said "It was ok except for the raw fish."

Yep

Hence a pet Peeve.

I plan on naming my next dog "Such a good dog".

Buy good comfortable walking shoes.

Well, I named my car "Eloquent". That way if I am working on that vehicle and the home phone rings, the person answering the phone can say, "He is not available now, he is just waxing Eloquent."

So since I use film and have never left using film, might it be possible that my birth year might get adjusted so that I could again be in the 18-35 year old group with all the physical and medical ramifications? Please advise as soon as possible. At this point time and timing is important.

I heard that when one is in Australia and one has finished a large meal, that they should not push away from the table and announce, "I'm stuffed!" I do not know why, but that seems to cause bright red faces and loud guffaws.

Please this is the internet and there is no good reason to use logic or common sense. When my children got to be about 11 or 12 years old they discovered logic and logical arguments. I told them that from that point on they needed to think things through and only do things for scientific or...

So now we have three theories: It is the photo finisher's fault. It is [using the technical term] an Operator Assisted Failure also known as an OAF [usage: The oaf did this.]. Both #1 and #2.

Focusing sharply on the negatives makes for better enlargement prints. You might consider trying at some point.

{sigh}What people will do to just fake that they are using the perfect format, square. {/sigh}

Still off topic: one would loose the color accuracy by eliminating the orange mask. Many years of research went in to determining that the orange mask was definitely needed and you are going to toss it out based on exactly what? Nothing but a hunch and blind trust that you can do better than...

I will just go crawl back in my hole and pout.

The notches appear on the 503 CX and 903 SWC negatives.

Get Southern California AAA Premium Towing service which includes up to four long distance tows: three 100 mile tows and one 200 mile tow. It will be worth if for you.

Just the US Standard. Some frequency had to be chosen.

You meant "reflector" not "refractor", right?

I do not know, but they are always there. Speculation: To pick out the Hasselblad negatives?
