Working fine now, Beth. Very effective, and I love the smoke. Looking forward to the giant stone ball and hoards of creepy crawlies! ;)

That does look odd, Gary. How are you agitating the film during development?

It is indeed very effective, Gary and the high contrast suits it well. And welcome to RPF @Richard Ries . :)

Although I use the ATL1000/1500 processors I know little about the smaller units. Mine are all geared lid drums. The manual will certainly help. I am thinking of closing the darkroom down in the UK (but keeping the one in Germany) and will be looking to get rid of the processor so before you...

I think the main articles about LF vanished when the blogs disappeared during the forum upgrade. This article (and a couple of others) survived though. I thought it might be useful / interesting. https://realphotographersforum.com/threads/anatomy-of-a-technical-camera.4327/

Wonderfully effective, Gerard. Did you envisage it mirrored like this when you took it?

Welcome to RPF, Gerard. :)

Yes, mainly 5x4, but not for over a year.

Welcome back, Stan. It has be a while hasn’t it, and I’m glad to hear about the restoration of your sight. I’m looking forward to seeing what you create with the D50. :)

Excellent outcome. Are you sure it doesn’t just zip you back in time every time you press the shutter?! ;)

Ah, someone as impatient as me! And a successful outcome too. :) You were't tempted to covert the metering system to valve operation at the same time then? ;) Looking forward to seeing some shots with the F4.

Looks like you have made a nice job of that, Charlotte. Looking forward to seeing the pictured you get from it. :)

I do like a nice hat! And I do like a nice picture of hats too! The reflection adds a great element as does the gent in motion. A fine shot indeed.

Congratulations on a successful repair, and I too like the jungle look. A blog on any theme works for RPF as long as there are pictures and especially if you have a theme linking them in some way (pond, gardening, hobbies, etc). I’m looking forward to see how it develops. :)

Happy New Year, all. Let’s hope 2025 is a good one!
