Re: Locations close to London

You could try Kew Gardens http://www.kew.org/ They allow within reason any form of non Commercial photography I have certainly dragged the 10x8 around there a few times. Entry isn't to cheap but if you like the place a season ticket rapidly pays for it's self. There should still be some Autum colour...

A far greater variety of equipment is available secondhand you might l...

Re: 'show us your camera or improvised/converted camera'

This year all the magnolias flowered late and the huge Magnolia Cambellii at leonardslee was in flower in April rather than Febuary, you can't really get a decent shot close to it so this meant dragging the 10X8 to the far side of the lakes and using a long lens in this case the Docter 750mm Apo Ger...

Re: Uneven processing

or should I just give up & revert to dishes? If you were using dish / tray processing you presumably have a darkroom? or at least suitably dark room, why not simply try using the combiplan as a dip dunk tank? I found with E6 if you follow the instructions to the letter then the combiplan worked exa...

Odd ...I mostly have Sinar dbm lenses but 5 examples of their cable release fit the 4 lenses I have with three different size of Copal shutter.

Worth a look if your passing I've spent say £30 on what would have been £300 + worth of bits
