This is a bit off topic, but since here is where all the people I respect

ecommerce web site where I can post my photos and visitors who are
interested can see my pictures and order prints.  I'd like this site to be

I'm currently in the market for a new camera system, and am torn between 6x7

I want to use a Crown graphic to shoot mostly Polaroid type 55 and some
colour.
1) Do you need to clear or some other process the film immediately? Can you
just stick the negs in a bag?

I recently acquired 3 sheet film holders that appear to be for a 10"x12"
format.  I've never seen this format before.  The holders also lack a
rib which fits into the groove on the back of a camera to form the upper
light trap when inserted in the camera back.  Instead, the holders ...

I recently got some out of date Type 53 film and when I shot it the image
looks like it is not processing evenly over to film.  I get blank spots

Somewhere on line is a photo of Weegee, standing next to a scantily clad
woman, maybe on a beach, with his pants pulled up to his chest, ankles
sticking out, holding a camera.  He's looking incredibly clown-like,

I have a few hundred sheets of Kodak "Super Panachrom Type B" film that
I tried to use last year with totally black negs. I chalked it up to
fogged film but am wondering if I had the correct info for the film if I

If so what is the type number?
What speed is it?
Is the film actually 4X5 inches?

Hello Esteemed Group -
How does one get a filter on the front? I mean like a UV or some kind of
protector. I have a friend who is willing to long-term loan me the lens but
I need to put a filter on it.

    Ok, there seems to be a bit of conflicting data here.
    The Sylvania ECT 3200K 500watt photofloods have a life of 60 hours on the
box, but someone mentioned i should cut that in half, just to be safe...so
about 30-40 hours.  And i should keep a record.
