How I wish Kentmere was available on 120. I like how it comes out in 35mm and is cheap A step up from Foma I would say. Like Foma but it becomes too curly (at least for me).

Marcelo, I too wish Kentmere was produced in 120, one can never have enough 120 B&W film stock.
 
Not for me but bought a bunch of rolls of HP5 120, for my senior photo students. They get the privilege of using my C330's. We havea Beseler 23C II that is capable of medium format, but only have 35mm neg carriers. On the prowl to find one.

Ask at the meeting tomorrow evening - Ed and Judy may very well have 3.

I'll ask, thanks. I almost got one from a member of our groups just prior to Covid, but covid happened...
 
I just scored a Zenobia Daiichi! Its in the mail, untested but looked great in the photos, I made sure to scrutinize the bellows but I guess we'll see. Its my first folder, I'm hoping it'll be a little lighter than my Rolleiflex automat for summer backpacking. Does anyone know where I could send it for service if the shutter ends up being sticky?

Yeah, like 1/4 the weight, if not lighter than that... Mine is great, never had a bellows problem. Hope yours is as good.
 
Received a 4 oz bottle of sodium metabisulfite (have on hand some sodium sulfite) to mix up hypo clearing agent.
 
A set of 6 WideLux filters.
 
A Konica T4 for my Konica AR lenses. Got some of them on pristine condition but no reliable camera till now. This one looks and work great.

A Gossen Lunasix 3 lightmeter working correctly. Compared readings with my reliable meters and cameras and looks like its spot on.

Two MR9 adapters (the ones that adjust voltage) for both the Konica and the light meter.


They more or less came at the mail at the same time

 

The 40mm Konica is very underrated lens. I love it. Even though I shoot my Leica and Minolta 40mm F2most of the time. I need to shoot the konika more often.

Now you've done it. Here I can't buy any more camera gear and you post about a Minolta 40mm F2. All I have is the lowly 45mm F2 which is supposed to be a nice lens, but the 40 looks like it's in a different league altogether.
 
Was just given a what seems like mint Super CoolScan 4000 ED. So I guess my latest purchase if this thing works, is VueScan.
 
Just bought a used Bogen 3160 fluid head from Central Camera (for use with a spotting scope) and a Robot II with a 3 1/4cm CZJ Tessar from Igor’s Camera Exchange. The Robot has just shipped, so I am anxiously awaiting it to see how accurate the condition rating (Ex) is.
 
Last Thursday, I ordered 10 Bergger Pancro 400/120 rolls, and a 5l pack of Berspeed film developer, I am eager to try these!

Does somebody has tried these before, I am curious?

A Calumet 8x10 print washer, and today, a dozen frames at IKEA for a show I'm in coming up in July.

What frames do you like to use? I haven't liked some of the changed IKEA has made to their frames in recent years, but I'm wanting to buy some new ones nonetheless.
