Hopefully now I'll be a bit less paranoid about my CPP2 blowing up.

Just hope they are priced competitively, but if they are giving away a free lift at £290 I guess they are going to be £500+

And the price is, a very reasonable, £2000 :shock: :shock:

I read about it today on ePhotozine. I'm very happy about it, but I have to say the price is a little bit steep! As every other bit of equipment from Jobo I must say; I think I've posted about the ~£100 I wasted in buying the reel loader... :?

Suppose we could start seeing a few spares come onto the market, which would be great, although I guess pricey..

Heh. Real men stick the prints to the tiles over the bath and paint on the chemistry with a brush... :shock:

...while sensible darkroom users use print trays or a Nova upright slot-processor. :D

Seriously though, a Jobo is an excellent processor for sheet-films, particularly the processors with Jobo-lifts which take the Expert-Drums such as the CPA2 & CPP2.
