  1. Twenty one new Canon Pixma Pro-10 ink cartridges; One unopened box of ten, plus a second box of nine (minus Magenta cartridge), plus individual PBK and CO cartridges. My Pro-10 printer failed and has been recycled; replacement printer will not take these cartridges. Price is half of current B&H prices. US sales only. Price: $144; buyer pays postage.
  2. Fuji XF27mm f/2.8 lens. Original version without aperture ring. no longer sold; replaced by WR version (with aperture ring). Same optics I believe. I purchased current version since I'm uncomfortable using the version w/o aperture ring. Purchased new in 2019 for $399; receipt available. Pristine; used very little. This lens manufactured in the Philippines. Includes all items furnished with lens: manual, lens pouch, etc. Located in Central NJ; will ship to US locations. Price: $180 including shipping. PayPal preferred. Excellent lens. See Ken Rockwell's review of this version of the lens. https://www.kenrockwell.com/fuji/x-mount-lenses/27mm-f28.htm
  3. to hjoseph7: Looks like you're wrong. The serial number is on the top plate to the left of the pentaprism. Perhaps name or SSAN was obliterated. No inquiries on this equipment on any of the three sites on which I've posted it. Nice camera; I will add it to my B&W film camera rotation. Very little interest in cameras it seems. Left word with my son to toss all cameras, negatives, slides, prints, etc in the dumpster when I cross the finish line - Leica's & digital included. I've found that no one is interested in my photography but me which is to be expected and is fine with me.
  4. Note that camera is the more sought after model made in Japan as confirmed by the Asahi name on the pentaprism. See attached from digitalcamerareworld site. "The Pentax K1000 started off with satin-chromed brass top and bottom plates and an aluminum and steel film rewind assembly, but the quality of materials changed throughout the camera’s life and by the end when it was being made in China, there were significantly more plastic parts being used. This saw the overall weight drop from 620g to 525g in its lifetime. As you can imagine, the original Japanese-made models are the sturdier and more sought after cameras. A good trick to determine if you’re looking at an earlier model is if the ‘Asahi’ branding is present on the pentaprism - something that disappeared as the production moved away from Japan."
  5. Re: Pentax K1000 & lenses; Location: Central NJ; Price: $300 for all; Buyer pays postage.
  6. Selling these items for a friend who no longer uses, needs, or wants them. 1) Pentax K100 body w Pentax 50mm f/2.0 lens w lens cap & UV filter; no dings, dents, or scratches except for scratch on bottom; meter readings match those from Minolta Auto Meter IV in reflected mode w new Varta SO357 1.5 volt battery in camera (specified by Pentax); lens stops down properly at all apertures when shutter fires; front and back elements pristine; shutter speeds appear accurate. 2) Tokina 70-210 zoom lens w leather case & box; lens is pristine; no lens cap, but UV filter mounted (damaged ring, but screws on & off w no problems); zoom mechanism smooth; apertures open & close properly. 3) Pentax 135mm zoom lens; appears unused; front & rear elements pristine; lens cap; case (poor). 4) Cambron 2X teleconverter for Pentax; appears unused; box & case. 5) 49mm collapsible lens cap. I shoot B&W and would use these items, but have too many film cameras now. Not interested in selling separately.
  7. An update: gave it all away to an employee of a photography store in NYC; had original boxes for enlarger and most other items.
  8. Update to my original post: Received a reply from the MI Attorney General's Office with an attached letter. The letter was from an attorney indicating that the owner of the business was deceased and disposition of the business(s) was still underway which explains the unresponsiveness of the site.
  9. Perhaps a Photonet member can help on an issue I have. For years I have been ordering adhesive postcard backs from a company called Postcard Backs, website https://postcardbacks.com/ However recently I've been unable to do so. It appears they only accept PayPal orders which was no problem since I have a PayPal account. Now however, I receive a message that says They're sales department is unresponsive via e-mail, and a certified letter was not delivered. I've filed a "complaint" with the Michigan Attorney General's office but have not heard from them. This product is ideal for affixing 4x6 or 5x7 prints to use as postcards. I've been unable to find a suitable substitute. Inputs welcome.
  10. Omega B-22 enlarger, two baseboards, two easels, both sets of condensers, both negative carriers, original instructions, Time-O-Lite timer; grain focuser, several Kodak PC filters, several safe lights, assorted trays, etc. Original boxes for most items. Free; pick up only; central NJ. Contact for additional info and/or pictures
  11. Minolta 16QT available for cost of postage from central NJ (est. $10?). Exposed several rolls of slide film with this camera years ago; results were excellent. No manual, but manuals are readily available on-line; PX 30 battery shown was not stored in camera, so battery apartment is clean - no corrosion; leather case is worn somewhat but is still serviceable. Camera itself is pristine. Unsure about availability of film and/or processing; obviously a camera for the sub-miniature aficionado. Unable to post picture from i-Phone 12 (receive a message saying file is too large for server even after resizing); send e-mail if interested, and I will send image to you.
  12. Thanks for the replies. Yes, I do file my negatives in Print File Archival sleeves, and yes, they do flatten out when stored this way. Epson advises to insert 35mm strips with emulsion side up, shiny side down. Any curl remaining in the negatives will be such that the emulsion side will be concave; shiny side will be convex and facing the glass What I've read on the internet and verified through observation is that placing the negatives with emulsion side down will result in loss of definition. No reply from Scan Tech. Perhaps they're on a holiday break or have folded. No indication of a holiday break on their answering machine.
  13. Does anyone have experience with Scan-Tech Anti-Newton glass? I'm using an Epson V-600 scanner primarily for 35mm B&W negatives. Very happy with the scans , but have been experiencing Newton Rings primarily with Tri-X which curls much more than llford HP5 Plus. Flattening under heavy books helps some as does inserting the negatives reversed, i.e., with emulsion side (concave) down, but this degrades definition. Scan-Tech promotes a thin glass insert which supposedly addresses the Newtons Ring issue; however, the illustration on their website shows a negative convex side up with glass on the top of the negative, the opposite of my situation with 35mm B&W. I have a call and an e-mail in to them, but while awaiting a response, I thought I'd try the RFF community; no response from any RFF member (after one full day), so I thought I'd try Photo.net members. BTW, no response from phone calls to Scan-Tech and an e-mail as well. Thanks for any help or advice you can provide.
