Hi,
After a considerable interlude and recently gotten back into darkroom printing, I am re-exploring the diverse options of the Analyser in the darkroom.
According to the manual, you should be able to get a decent exposure for contact sheet printing by first measuring through a clear piece of film, and then moving the LED indicator to maximum black by adjusting the timing using the darker button.
However, if I do this and print a test strip for control of the suggested exposure time, it is way off and much to short (the print is way to light and doesn't have black), like 2-3 stops.
Anyone else who has experience using the Analyser to create contact sheet prints have a suggestion? My Analyser is the variant for the Ilford 500H head.
