are you aware of any special difficulties which may arise when
using Multigrade RC paper for making prints from a BW400CN film ?
As recommended by Kodak, the filter shall be n° 4 or 4 1/2.
thanks for any advise.

Hi everybody, I've seen a catalogue about Michael Kenna. Images are
wonderful and have a "strange" very light yellow colouring.It is very
interesting for me. Does someone know how to obtain it?
Thanks

I'd like to start playing around with Type 55 P/N film.  From reading I know
the negatives should be cleared (per Polaroid) in an 18% solution of Sodium
Sulfite.  What I don't know is the storage life of said solution, or how to tell
when it's dead.  Or is it immortal?

The instruction sheets for the two papers I'll be trying (Arista & Forte)
recommend Dektol, why not a warm tone developer (like Agfa 120)?  Also, I
goofed and mixed the120 with  sodium, not potassium carbonate. Will this
make a big difference?

Cord Camera in Columbus, Ohio (5th Avenue) has 10 00 foot rolls of FP4
Plus, dated late 2004, I believe. They are about $20 each. The film is
probably still pretty good.

Are paper iso's useful? I ask because my standard, black toned print paper
has an iso of 200 and the warm tone paper I'm trying this week has an iso of
160. Now, I realize that there's a large issue in comparing the densities on
these 2 papers (eg a brown tone paper will always ...

I have recently acquired and plumbed in the ATL-2300 and am getting an
intermittent error, occasionally a this doesn't occur, but more often
than not at least one of the 3 baths of E6 chemicals are not pumped
across into the drum. I am using the front bank of tanks and tanks 1-3.

Last night I was testing some 3 years O of D  5x7 Polymax II RC
N surface. In three tests I did not see a good black. Is that usual
with old paper or is that the N surface? Dan

It seems I am plagued with dust no matter what I do.  When I built the new
darkroom, I caulked every drywall seam, floor and ceiling joints, plumbing
entrances and exits, filtered the air intake, don't smoke in  the room and I
still have a huge dust and spider problem.  I can't ...

I have a 4 inch by 4 3/4 inch B & W negative from probably the early
1960's.  It's on "Kodak Safety 482".  Two quick questions.  1. Was there
anything special about this film, as in was it generally used by
professionals, or was it pretty common? 2.  I would like to trim this down

This question is within the context of the subject title.
ALL things being equal, if HP5+ is given X minutes to
develop, what is the value of the constant K in the equation
X times K equals Y. Y is the time needed  to develop Delta 3200.

I respect that this is a "darkroom" forum. Where can I ask a question about
a circular polarizer? I checked out alt.photography and well, it's pretty
bad,
Thanks,

I know I can still get large resin-coated black and white paper
on rolls.  However, I'm looking for a tolerable (that is,
preferably not Ilford, no matter who's selling it this week)
fiber-base paper in sizes larger than 20x24.

Ok, big kids..... (my little ones too)
I recently came across a lot of nice camera's , and Alpa 6b, a Rollei,
a Bolex 8, and a couple of others, amongst the others a Brownie
Hawk-Eye 2 C .

I live WAY out in the boonies with NO photo stores around so:
I lightly sprayed a white card with black paint until my reflected-light
meter read it the same as the meter (with the incident light bubble on it)
read the light source (sun) .
