that's funny, it's my understanding that Linhof is using Keith to make all their bellows anyways....

For the Technikardan, I don't think I can tell the difference between the new and old bellows. So that could be true.

However, for the Kardan, the Custom Bellows material is definitely very different to that of my original Linhof bellows.
Custom Bellows material is much 'softer' and more 'flexible'. While the original Linhof material is 'stiffer' and more 'rigid'.

I slit a lot of my own 127 format film, it's a good way to save money, but sometimes it's a bit finicky to load since 120 is a bit longer than 127, but I just load in the dark and get an extra frame haha!

Pentax 67 helicoid, before that was some Fuji C41 Bleach and Kodak developer. Next will probably be a roll of glossy Fuji Maxima if I can find it.

Dang, this habits is getting expensive

I received my latest Viewfinder magazine today. On the back cover is the hideous latest green paint Safari offering (M11p) for the fashion folks

Kinda cute, but it would look kinda silly, from the person who walks around with a Fuji 6x9

@Taurabon: Have you used this brand before? I would be curious to know how this film performs. Months ago I was thinking to try Rera Pan but ended up buying Kentmere instead.

This is the first time I've purchased this film. I took a roll of this film yesterday and plan to develop it in a few days. I'm still trying to decide what developer to use.
