Re: How do you cut window mounts?

I was a bit daunted by this a few years ago and used to pay someone else money to cut these for me and they were never right. Then prior to a big exhibition of my work I invested in a FrameCo MatMaster for a good price from ebay: http://www.matmaster.info/ and a terrific bit of free software called ...

FS: MINT and BOXED 210mm f/5.6 Apo-Symmar. Dropped Price

Ok this has to go so have dropped the price significantly and included pics: http://www.photohome.uku.co.uk/stuff.html Mint and boxed, both schneider lens caps, a very reluctant sale, easily the sharpest of all my 5x4 lenses and bags of coverage for 5x4 (will actually just about cover 10x8) but I ha...

WTB: Urgent, Linhof/Wista board in Copal 3

Hi All, I finally have a nice Rodenstock 240 Sironar N in Copal 3 for my 10x8 Gandolfi Variant (what a whopping great lens it is, first time I have ever seen a Copal 3 lens and the size of it took me by suprise!) and as luck would have it, it came with a Sinar lensboard which the Gandolfi takes, onl...

WTB: 210 or 240 lens to cover 10x8

Hi all, Really need a 210 or 240 to cover 10x8. I already have a Schneider 210mm f/5.6 Apo-Symmar (for sale here: http://www.lf-photo.org.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1471) but it doesnt quite have the coverage on 10x8 even stopped right down (I mainly shoot at infinity) and vignettes on 10x8 althou...

FS: Schneider 210mm f/5.6 Apo-Symmar

Mint and boxed, both schneider lens caps, a very reluctant sale, easily the sharpest of all my 5x4 lenses but I have recently moved to 10x8 and now need a lens with more coverage.

£450.00

Re: Anti-Newton Glass

the 8x10 "holder" provided with the V700/750 scanners is merely a plastic film "frame" you place around the edges of the film to try to keep it flat Hadn't realised the 700 scanners came with this for 10x8, my 4990 does not, wondering if they are compatible, may not be ideal as I like scanning the ...

Re: Anti-Newton Glass

Thanks for all the replies, I strongly suspect the newton rings you're seeing are from the scanner flatbed glass, not the AN glass. No its not that, if I place the film on the glass glossy side down I get no newton rings (just curling corners), I know this should work because it worked fine with the...
