Thanks Bob, I'll look out for some of that. I don't have the space for a darkroom but can use the tiny bathroom blacked out sufficiently for three small trays and a safelight :) I've developed prints before (when I had a 'proper' darkroom) and that was magic, too. I'll have to stick with stand dev i...

I have a Mk6 and a half. Mk6 with Mk7 mods: international back, mainly. Came with a 180mm Schneider Symmar lens/Compur shutter. I also had to look for DDS's separately. Finding them isn't hard but some of the prices.........! I also picked up an MPP 6x9 back. I have no idea why, they look really awk...

Hi Keith.
Sunderland here. Yours is scarily close to mine regarding equipment!

Hi Mike Hi Adrian We could be developing enough members to have a local Northeast UKLF chapter. Just noticed another new one, from Durham :) I also considered doing something with that Paterson thermodrum at Chas Eagles in Sunderland, if that's the one you mean (It was, Brian advised against it.

Not entirely sure if the two accessory shoes were DIY additions, or why. Rangefinder no longer attached, though I gather this was an option anyway. http://i931.photobucket...

Brilliant! Plus there's a superstore just 2 miles from me
Which is either 10mins by Metro or 8mins and road-rage round Sunderland's one-way system!
I'll have a couple of those on Sat, I think.

Hi Charles, thanks for the welcome!

I'll keep it brief :) Recently acquired an MPP Micro Technical (5x4) to satisfy a 30yr itch. Not really had much chance to use it yet except for a couple of shots of my front room, to check light-tightness. I've already learned to pull out the dark slide from the holder before exposure and after fli...
