I guess that it is just my contrary nature, but a like the original scan better than your adjusted image.  Maybe if your adjustments had been more subtle, I might have agreed that they were an ...

Thank you for posting this.  What a sad day for the United States.  We have a large minority of the population who brought this on.

Probably the best solution is to buy some 120 film and wind it onto a 620 spool. Hopefully there is one in your camera. That is what I did to try an old Kodak Duaflex camera. Here is a link to my ...

Before I sent the camera off, I checked the battery holder with a volt meter.  It turns out that one of the springs was corroded.  When I cleaned that up, the camera again worked.  So I never sent ...

Here is a photo of my wife all bundled up for cold weather on one of our daily walks.  Nothing special about this photo, but I just thought it was interesting.  Taken with my cell phone since I ...

If you want the sharpest possible images at any distance you should not rely on depth of field.  For example, if you enlarge a section of an image, something within the depth of field will not ...

The problem with the F5 is that it is very difficult to get parts, and there are not many places to get one repaired. A few weeks ago I lost the battery tray for my F5.  I could not find one to buy ...

I have the same problem with an Olympus E10 digital camera.  One of the first real digital cameras that did not cost 5K or more.  It now sits on a shelf on display but not used.  Interesting ...

If well maintained, dip and dunk machines can be very reliable.  Of course, the user must know how to hang the film properly.  When my brother and I had a lab in the 70s and early 80s, we had a ...

A good lab would run control strips at minimum every day checking them with a high quality densitometer. And then make adjustments to the chemistry as needed.  In addition, even with automated ...

I have the BH-40 and use it with a Nikon D800 and Sigma pro 150-600. That lens and camera may be pushing the BH-40 a bit, but it works fine.  Note that the Sigma pro lens is heavier than the 200-500. ...

Unless the prints are made with an enlarger and not from a scanned negative as most labs do, the prints are really digital.  It is hard to tell how a lab makes these prints unless you ask them.  I ...

I also tried the lens on my Nikon D800 and had no problem with focus. I could even use the green focus dot. Here is one image and my post in adapted lens. https://4.img-dpreview.com/files/p/E~forum ...

Thanks, but they are not in stock now.  If they were in stock earlier, they must have sold quickly.  I have been put on there list to notify my when they are in stock.  I didn't get notified.  ...

Thanks Marty for the suggestion. Using 3d printing also occurred to me.  My guess is that it will be quite expensive for a single item.  I will check it out.  Maybe since the trays are so hard to ...

Makes sense.  I lost the battery tray for a Nikon F5 and was unable to find one anywhere.  So I went to Ebay looking for a non-working camera.  To my surprise none of them included the battery ...

I recently bought a Nikon F5 from KEH that was marked bargain. Boy was I surprised that the camera looks almost new to me. Just slight wear and a few minor scuff marks. I have no idea was it was ...

Well the only way I could find a battery tray was to buy another F5. I bought one from KEH that said bargain for $280. I was surprised at how good the condition of this camera is. Other than a few ...

I agree that spending 200K on a turntable is crazy.  Some reviewers claim that those turntables sound better than less expensive ones.  I have no idea if that is true, but even if it is, spending ...
