Recently I went to my friend house who has a Nikon 9000, the original stock medium format trail can accommodate 2 6x7 or 3 645 frame, which mean I have to cut the film to scan it.
Not sure about the glass film holder.
For the 6x17, do you have to cut the film with the glass holder?

I just send in my pentax 645Nii for repair, so it is still there.
Also I heard, the pentax medium format is only discontinue in the USA but not in Japan so they still making it.
Don't quote me on that, just do some internet research.

I thought that the 90-180mm is 5.6 and not 4.5

According to this articles, it look like it might happen. Look for June 28, 2006.

Fujifilm raises film prices by July 1, will discontinue some slide films
Fuji Photo Film Co. Ltd., Tokyo, Japan, announced the detail of film price revision effective July 1. Raised prices will be applied to 35mm color print film and reversal film, color reversal roll film (120); color reversal sheet-film and color print film in cartridge (110), reports JPEA International PEN News Weekly. Prices of color reversal film will be raised 3-10 percent. The manufacturer no longer suggests list prices for color print film (single roll. The price revision is not applicable to One-Time-Use Cameras (OTUC).
Selling price of 35mm print film have dropped significantly for a past few years, and trade watchers are curious to see if the price on the street will promptly reflect the price revision this time, says PEN News Weekly.
"With the shrinking demand, slight price revision upward may not affect film sales. We had good mind to raise prices and are ready to revise our prices upward parallel to Fuji's price revision," comments a Tokyo dealer.
In additional new, Fujifilm Imaging is streamlining the lineup of color transparency film. Following the introduction of Fujichrome PROVIA 400 film last April, the TRE BI 400 slide film will be discontinued around July this year. Also disappearing will be some multi-roll packs and long film of PROVIA 100F, VELVIA and VELVIA100F due to markedly decreased demand, reports PEN News Weekly.

I second the use of black velvet. It absorb over 90% of light.

I have been going to Calypso in Santa Clara, California the last couple of years
to do my film developing either E-6 or C-41. I like Calypso and I like their
services.
But starting 6/1/06, they are no longer doing c-41 and you have to have an
account with them. if you don't have an account with them, they will charge you
a minimum of $15 for any services. Well, I just don't shoot as much to have an
account with them. Sometime I got just 1 roll of 120 but I can not process
there because of their new policy unless I pay $15 buck for a $4 film process.
If you go to their website, they haven't update their webpage. if you call
them, they will tell you.
Does any body know of any other places in the South Bay around San Jose, Santa
Clara, Sunnyvale CA, ETC that do film processing?
I know about San Francisco Newlab, Robin, Chromework and other labs there but I
am not interested in that area. I am just interest in the South Bay.
Thanks

This is not new, it being happen before. Different freguency on the meter and not the RT-32.
-
wow, I just look at the other tread. How about a short summary?
-
How do you guy know all this? I read the manual and I could not find any info on it. what pages on the manual does it talk about it?

"What aspects of the Brown line are compatible with Novatron's? What components work together, what don't, etc. "
I don't think he meant compatable as in compatible. I think he meant they are on the same line. One of the rule of thumb, you should not interchange parts with different manufactures.

calypso does not do ciba, they do digital.
-
I got the d70s, see page 159. set File No. Seq to ON.
-
but the new Nikon plug-in support the d70s. so when you are in photoshop and open a NEF, the Nikon plug-in kick in and open that NEF.

Or you could use Pocket Wizard wireless in a studio environment.

I have use this powerpack at school. If you won this items, I see a manual in the picture. Did you get it?
I used it once and I believe I still remember. I have an idea on how the Symetrical/Asymmetrical switch work. But I will let someone answer first. If they haven't figure it out, I will reply back.
by the way, you can call Speedotron. They got good customer services Even if that powerpack is out of warranty, they still can help you with your question. I believe their phone number is 312-787-8405

Where did you purchase the L-558. Is this the USA version or the Grey market version? I may be wrong but I heard if you purchase a grey market version, it will not work with the PocketWizard since they are different frequency. The U.S version use the FCC while the grey market use the EC frequency.

Steve, not a softbox but a light box instead

I just return back from Target here in Colma,CA. The Kodak UC400 that
we saw at 8.99 is back to 11.99. I guess they found out the mistaken
price.
-
Will that affect the color division such as ilfochrome, printing from slide? or this is the B&W department.
-
20x24 paper is very common too. The actual print size will be 20x25. so you loose 1 inch only.

I just have my F100 repair by Nikon service center in Torrance, CA. USA. The total charge was $179 + $10 shipping.
This was the services repair order:
Service level B2( Moderate Repair : Major Parts Replaced)
RPL top cover complete
RPL grip unit
RPR main sw(power sw)
CKD shuttle release
CKD auto focus operation
general check & clean.
This problem was the power switch that I have to toggle on/off. sometime when power off, it will not power off. I have toggle or remove the battery. And when turn on, I have to toggle off/on to turn it on.
There were couple of think I didn't quite undersdand why the replace the top cover and grip unit. The only problem I got was the switch.
But overall, the camera arrive in one piece and I am satisfies especially with the cleanning.

One thing they forgot to mention. For studio work, the Pentax is very limited on what you can do. The sync speed for the 67 is 1/30 and the 645 is 1/60. Depend on lighting situation or mix lighting, it might or might not work. Althought Pentax got one or two leaf shuttle lens that can go higher.
But for outdoor, it is a great camera.

I did bought quite a few Pentax medium format camera from Adorama. Adorama sell both USA and Gray market. I did bought the USA version. When I receive my camera, there was no warranty card so I call Adorama and they send me one. The warranty card is very generic. It is not like other manufactures where they embedded the serial number to the warranty card.
Sometime my instinct tell me different so I call Pentax and they toll me the same as you did. They can not track it. And I ask them about the warranty card. They told me the warranty card when you send it in, it is for marketing purpose and has nothing to do when you need services.
For services under warranty, all they need is the receipt. and lucky my receipt say Pentax 67II USA. or Pentax 645 USA.
