Can anyone tell me if exposed film should be stored in the same way as unexposed film (ie in the fridge)? I've just bought a CPE-2 processor and I'm going to start developing my own E6 and B+W but to make it financially viable I'm going to have to unload my film holders and put exposed sheets back i...

Chris I use a V700 and it does give you complete control on how you want to crop the image. Its an excellent piece of kit and would recommend it to anyone.

....and I usually get very lost as soon as I go north of Bristol but I'm keen to come up and meet everyone, just depends on whether my slave drivers of employers will let me have that weekend off!

Bookmarked!

Thanks Sean, the colour cast is also very evident on the slide. It is an easy enough fix in PS to remove the colour cast but I'm not too happy about having this much magenta in there. I've spoken to Formatt and I've just sent the filters to them for testing and hopefully should get replacements soon...

The picture above was taken with Velvia 50 and I also took exactly the same shot with Provia with the same magenta cast?!

I used a .6 hard GND from High Tech with a .3 soft GND which was from SRB, I guess the cheap one from SRB is what has given the magenta cast?
Apart from that both pics are straight scans with a resize, no PS.

Just got my first slides back from Spectrum in Plymouth, out of the four I had processed three of them were pretty well exposed. No prizes for composition but after all the warnings I've had about using slide film I'm just happy I didnt end up with clear/black sheets! Thanks to everyone who gave the...

Has anyone else noticed that Robert Whites prices have just rocketed!! :shock: Surely someone has made a mistake with their pricing?! (On a side note.....I spoke to Mike Walker the other day and ordered a 5x4 Titan XL!! Whooohoo :lol: Strangely enough my girlfriend isn't quite as excited about it as...

I got all my film yesterday, I've got so much of it I'm wearing velvia quickload as earings. Cheers for the tip Jonathen I don't feel so wierd now for making my cat a bikini out of exposed stickers... for a minute I thought I was conforming to 'eccentric large format photographer' stereotype... Any...

I've used this to develop 5x4 B+W negs but it will also do 10x8's. The mod was just some epoxy adhesive glue dimples which stops the film sticking to the bottom tray ensuring even development. Fully light tight and comes with the manual base. SOLD Thanks Mike http://i477.photobucket.com/albums/rr134...

My current technique, based on a days workshop with JC, is to choose the midtone by looking at the scene first without the meter. Then I spot meter that point and switch the meter into relative EV. I can then scan round the scene and through the spot meter window I see a live display of EV +/- from...

I usually shoot B+W which I develop and enlarge myself but I must of had a bump to the head at some point because all of a sudden I have the urge to shoot some colour. This is what I have armed myself with so far - Velvia 50, Velvia 100 and a box of Provia 100. Filters - ND grads (soft) from .3 to ....

Thanks Andrew, I'm a B+W darkroom man myself but I thought I'd give this colour photography lark a go to see what happens. What could possibly go wrong eh?

Ordered a couple boxes of Velvia 50 and a box of Provia.

I see they still have some Velvia 50 sheets left but its out of date (12/08 ).
Do you think this will still be good for use this summer? Its only a fiver a box!
