Yes, it should be bidirectional.

No, move the rollers on the left in so they rollers are completely on the same cylinder. The tanks should be level not tilted over.

I have Samy's Camera develop my panorama photographs and print them on 5"x7" paper as it fits.

There is no need to adjust the development time.

See the threads in graflex.org under the forum and also the technical camera files. You will need to have the rear shutter curtain fully opened.

Note to self: Start using GWP instead of GWC. Thank you

I have come to the same conclusion plus I do not enjoy making one or two sets of prints of every photograph so that I have something to look at for determining making any future enlargements. YMMV

First check that the batteries are fresh and that the battery contacts are clean. Then compare to Sunny 16 [Bright Sun light check the meter at f/16 and the shutter speed should be approximately 1/[film ISO]. If not then the meter needs to be adjusted.

I too have found that 1:1 approximates the replenished XTOL development times for the Jobo processor and I use that as a guide when there are no data points for developing in replenished XTOL/.

Nothing like poising the database with corrupt data. Go sit in the corner and think about the damage you did.

Thank you. Now I see that I am not alone in pointing out the just reducing the film speed arbitrarily is just blindly shooting away without any thought to what is needed or not needed in shadow detail, a major reason for using the Zone System. Shoot at Box Speed and adjust for shadows as...

About 40 years ago, I was visiting a cemetery in Los Angeles that happened to have photographs on graves that were about 10 years old at the time. That would make them about 50 years old now.

My bad. 😟

Many people at least in the US cannot maintain a single thought in their mind before they finish reading a bumper sticker.

That answers the question. Time to close the thread.

Then you need an early version Leica with a panache lens.

Prior to safety film, there was nitrate film which was inflammable and could be unstable. Others can provide more information, but I never handled any nitrate films so listen to them or fill in the details from the internet. Welcome to APUG Photrio!!

The light is next to the enlarger and casts visible green light down on the table surface and yes it fogged paper.

Often people go the digital route after developing because to the space, cost and logistical problems of setting up a darkroom with an enlarger, I almost when that way when I blew through a new set of inkjet cartridges, started looking into Craig's list in disgust and found the same type...

One might do better with cargo pants, although even the small cameras, ignoring cell phones, weight down the pockets too much.

I posted "likes" which is not a total universal without exception statement. That does not mean all. To expand on my points, before the Europeans the Australian aboriginals had permanent houses that they used in rotations, megastructures, river damming for fishing with retention pools to keep...

Duh ... I would not have done that if it was not a problem. You need to give people other than you some credit.

I needed to put black electrician's tape over the smoke detector's green LED lights so that it would not fog the paper.

Hence the comments that I have posted that there is nothing like hold an silver gelatin print in ones hands.

The point is that the Western World likes to view art, architecture, history and culture through eyes of the west and looks down on Australian Aboriginal, New Zealand's Maori, and North America Indigenous art, amoung others, as inferior and unworthy. Exactly a part of being regulated to the...

Something we would put on the floor when house training a dog or under and around cat boxes to make it easier to clean up the kitty litter that was kicked out of the cat boxes.

I usually have enough rolls of time to seasoned XTOL. Otherwise it will be soon enough.

One could take developer in a sponge and locally sponge to darken. Then using a sponge with water to slow down or stop the development before deciding whether to continue.
