A few 5x7 safelights (mostly Premier) over the last week or so. I’m beginning to think smaller area lights might be more useful than one big one (think Thomas). So now I have both.

Provia 100 (in 120 format) - the first time I've bought slide film since Ektachrome in 1978.
I saw someone's Provia slides recently and thought I'd try this film.

Provia's a nice film-not quite as intense as Velvia (which reminds me, I still have some Velvia in 220 which I hoarded for years in my parents' freezer to finish off! Just bought some more Fuji Superia 400 in 35mm, some time I'm going to try my Rolleicord/C330 with a bit of Portra for street photography. The screen on the Rolleicord is a bit of a cave compared to the Mamiya, but it is smaller and more portable. A WLF is good because then you don't have to raise the camera to your eye.

My local dealer had this on his eBay site. Nikon FG, virtually N-I-B. I can't find a mark on it. Came with box and instructions, wrapped in the original plastic inner bag. Missing only the warranty card.
I have one of these and one of the bigger processors, the CPE is perfect for 89% of what I do. The lift is awesome.
Shot another 8 rolls of 120 in the last few days so now I have 22 rolls waiting to be processed. Too many commitments to use the JOBO this week(end) but after that I am ready to go. I did "play" with it and did load a few practice rolls on the reels in a changing bag (PITA) and did quite well, everything works so I'm getting antsy. Soon...
If you can avoid the changing bag I would . The humidity plays havoc with loading the reels. Don't forget to nip the tiniest of the corners off the 120 film before loading the reels makes a huge difference. Calm and dry. I cheat I use infrared goggles, you really don't need them, but I love them. When you nip the corners just right and everything is cool,dry and calm the film will just slide right onto the Jobo reels. I don't try to ratchet, I just very gently push the film and it glides right on. Don't nip too much or the film won't stay on the reel. Just a 16th of an inch, a couple 2 or 3 mm.
I love developing film.
Wear disposable gloves whilst loading. I have had zero issues with binding since I started doing this.
20 rolls of fomapan 400 120
I've wanted an LPL 4550 XLG VCCE with the K&IF module for quite some time to get into 4x5 printing. I finally pulled the trigger one one in excellent condition. I also do color so I bought a Dichroic module in brand new condition for $50 off of eBay - the only funky thing about the color module is that the numbers and labels are upside down, but work perfectly otherwise - I wonder how that happened, but for $50 bucks I'll deal with a very minor issue like that. THis one joins my LPL 670MXL (7700) enlarger - they are now siblings.
That's beautiful! The color head labels? ??
Yes,the color head labels and numbers are upside-down. A color head from KBH was many hundreds of dollars (over $500 used and a whopping $1500 new) and this one was billed a new for $50, but fully functional other than the filtration labels and numbers upside down - but it does appear new and works perfectly - just dial to the desired CC number - just a little funky. Have no clue how they got flipped.

Maybe it was custom made for an Australian darkroom?

No problem, CMoore.
BTW, you are quite right, much is going in in central and eastern Europe, that is not on radar of the predominantly Anglo-American community such as PHOTRIO.
