The little bit of Neopan 1600 that I've done in PMK was exposed at 800 and developed 10 minutes at 70F. I found I preferred the results of...
There are always a bunch of Gralab 300 timers available on Ebay. Several have sold recently for $30 or so, although others have gone for much...
Rollei Bay I hoods and filters also fit YashicaMats (at least they fit on mine.) The Rolleinar close up devices also fit, although the parallax...
I've been bulk loading HP5+ and shooting it at 800 for several years. Haven't had much in the way of scratches, and never had a canister open...
Technically off topic, but at the other end of the size scale Minox has notched its film gates since the Model C (beginning late '60s or early...
I use HP5+ as my low light film, rating it at 800 and developing in Ilfotec-HC, dilution 1:31, one shot. My "normal" development procedure...
I'm going to be using 4x5 sheets for the first time in years, and would prefer not to develop in trays or in my old FR daylight tank. I'm spoiled...
Well I certainly like it with Delta 100 and 400 films in 35mm, which I rate at 64 and 250, respectively. Very little grain and very good...
Filling time shouldn't be an issue with Paterson tanks. I did 8 rolls at once in one of their tanks two days ago, and got the 2.5 liters of...
The last roll of Tech Pan I bought came with an instruction sheet which included developing suggestions for a range of contrast indices from...
Based on a suggestion I picked up on one of the photo mailing lists (can't remember which one) I've begun adding a jigger of rubbing alcohol...
There's obviously not a consensus, but my 2 cents are - Delta 400 at 250, and Delta 100 at 64. In my Paterson tanks and with my water,...
I use one of those leader retriever thingies to pull the leader out of the cassette so I can trim it straight and cut the tip off the corners...
I have bought a lot (for me) of Ilford film and paper from B&H, and for film they can't be beat by anyone reputable and reliable (that I've...
You might take a look at the slitter offered by Ray Pepalis for $55 delivered in the US. He's at http://members.aol.com/xkaes/adf47.htm. Not...
Would you consider a Linhof 23 with rollfilm back a MF folder? If so, I'd guess there were (and still are) lots of lenses available for it...
I have no experience with the Polaris. Once had a Minolta III, which was wonderful but large, and took batteries that weren't normally available...
The problem Tony describes is a surprising one to me, as I've been using Paterson reels and tanks since about 1970 and of the 3,400+ rolls of...
I too have no experience with Tri-X, but I've been using PMK with Ilford Delta films for about a year. My practice has been to cut the ISO in...
