| Kodalith Ortho 6556 type 3 | 01 Jul 2004 00:08 GMT | 1 |
Does anyone know where I can find this film? Or an equivalent? I hear that there no lith film now made in the 35mm format. Is this another nail in the film based photography coffin? Pierre

| FG7 | 30 Jun 2004 20:46 GMT | 4 |
I received two unopened gallons of FG7 as a gift. I've been using Rodinal for years. How would you characterize FG7? Is it an energetic developer like Rodinal? Can it be highly diluted (say 1:50) and remain effective?

| cheap processing, are negatives OK ? | 30 Jun 2004 15:00 GMT | 18 |
I have 5 rolls of wedding film. I know cheap processing----Kirkland/Costco in this case---- gives me mediocre prints. But what about the negatives ? I'm expecting to make a few 8x10s

| Chemical replenishment question | 30 Jun 2004 14:32 GMT | 1 |
I'm using Ilford chemicals, and am wondering when I should replace the stop bath and fixer solutions... they've been recycled about 6 or 7 times now. I use Ilfosol, so that gets ditched each time, but I'm not sure about the others...

Dear Readers-- I have a question: is there anything wrong with the use of pure ammonium thiosulfate as a fixer for pyro-developed film? (I use 35mm Tri-X mostly). I have some of the

| New to Xtol questions | 29 Jun 2004 14:34 GMT | 5 |
I've been enjoying some experimentation over the last year and have been slowly chipping away at my freezer load of films in the process, too. The likely last one I'm getting to in my sequence is Xtol. I stopped at a local litho supply house (my only local source),

I just shot 4 rolls of kodak gold 100 for a friend's wedding. After developing at a local lab, the first two rolls turned out, and the last one also came out well, but the third roll, only the first 4 shots came through. The rest of the negative was blank. The edge

| Efke 25 and Windisch | 29 Jun 2004 03:13 GMT | 5 |
Has anyone tried this combination? I'm going to try for a more 10's/20's style portraiture with a young model with very nice skin and I want a very soft result. I'm trying Efke 25 and I was going to use either Rodinal 1:100 or Windisch for the first try, and wondered if there were ...

| Focotar-2 Question. | 28 Jun 2004 19:36 GMT | 8 |
I have had the good fortune to obtain a Focotar-2 enlarging lens. Which extension tube I need to get to use this lens lens on a Focomat 1C? I have the tube marked "DOORX" on my enlarger, but I have heard that this tube is for the older Focotar lens and it will not autofocus ...
