Status: soon comes the second print in the thread from antmar, and some new ideas ...

antmar · Feb 23, 2016

I finished printing the negative but seems that I've done a stupid mistake, I did a large print that I can't scan. So I have to print it again in a smaller size which is easy cause I have all my notes from the first print. The negative will be on it's way sooner than the end of the week.
As Darko wrote in the previous message I want to add another negative in the thread which will go the opposite way (from the end of the list to the start).
So here comes the question:
How many of you in the list can handle a panoramic negative of 24x58mm or a medium format 6x6 negative? Both negatives need 6x6 or larger size enlarger. If all of you (or almost all) can handle it then a bigger negative will be selected other wise a standard 35mm negative with the same subject will take its place.
Both negatives (Darko's and mine) are going to leave by the end of the week but they will travel to different parts of the planet.
I am waiting for some answers.

All setup on my end up to 6x9 so I'll be happy to have either.

Thanks,
Ben

Great idea , antmar. All good up to 4x5 here.

I cannot. If you want to use a larger negative, then feel free to skip me, no harm done.

As much as I would love to print it, I can go up only to 35mm,so I have to pass!

walbergb · Feb 23, 2016

In this case size does matter, and I have the equipment. Count me in.

ValoPeikko · Feb 23, 2016

I can handle up to 4x5 as well

jeffreythree · Feb 23, 2016

I can go up to 6x9. Those who can't should keep in mind MF contact prints are cute little things.

Oxleyroad · Feb 23, 2016

I'm good up to 4"x5".

What a great idea to send another neg off in the opposite direction.

NedL · Feb 23, 2016

I will be last in the line for the new negative! I can print up to 6x9. I think this is a wonderful idea.

antmar · Feb 24, 2016

I think that Darko will be the last in line, if he agrees of course.

darkosaric · Feb 24, 2016

I don't have currently setup for 6x6, only focomat V35. So please skip me.

darkosaric · Feb 24, 2016

Actually - count me in, I can make contact copy !

Of course!

Brian L · Feb 25, 2016

I'm just able to print good ol' 35mm negs - so I#m gonna skip the other format.

All the best,
Brian L (who'is currently preparing the equipment for his temporary darkroom. )

amellice · Feb 25, 2016

I'm in for 35 and 6x6 and 6x7. count me in please

Cool idea! I can handle the second negative, too

antmar · Feb 26, 2016

My print is ready and when it will be dry I will scan and upload an image for you. I needed to do a second print cause, stupid me, the first one wasn't small enough to be scanned.
Till the end of the day the first negative (the original one from Darko) will be on it's way to Ned. Also the second negative (the one that I will add to the thread) will be ready to leave tomorrow morning.
More details in a few hours.

Thanks for the update . You mean will be on it's way to 480sparky, not NedL?

antmar · Feb 26, 2016

That's wright!

antmar · Feb 26, 2016

Well here it is:

darkosaric · Feb 26, 2016

Great Antonis ! . I just compared yours and Ned's version side by side - and I see that Ned mirrored the image (can be noticed by looking letter "N" on the bridge). So already in 2 versions we have big difference .

antmar · Feb 27, 2016

Both negatives are on it's way to the next one. All shipping information have been provided respectively.
I added a 6x6 negative from my Hasselblad SWC, it is a very interesting touristic view of Athens and Parthenon in a sunny day with a beautiful sky.
Film is Efke 50 souped in ID11 and it is maybe slightly in the thinner side (so some printing skill will be needed) but it is rich in resolution and tones.
My negative will start from the end of the line, in order to minimize the waiting time for the last of you. I skipped rpavich who can't handle medium format negatives (really sorry about that) and the first one is Jef (jeffreythree).
All the best to all of you
Antonis
