Want to contact print my 4x5 negatives this way. Even began using a film suited for contact specifically at least it’s said to be and a soft contrast one to venture into finally doing alt process. 8x10 next year as well. If it was good enough for Weston then why do I need to go transparency printing unless I want bigger obviously

Interesting, but I’d find a way to use a fraction of that water. Alongside the environmental impact, here in the UK a large percentage of homes are on a water meter., billed by the amount of water we use. That process would process would cost us a fortune!

The lcd light meter is terrible. Makes manual use a pain. Did some finders have leds?

I saw one on video.

You are a legend thank you !

This camera lens look great I have the canon eos rebel sl3

Tank you for this great tutorial an compliments for your awesome photo

I got my new RB Pro-S in 1989. At the time I have only a 127mm lens. RB stayed with me through this years. Never had any problem with it.

⭐️💯🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷👍We have a very beautiful NIKON F3 for sale, so if you are interested, please let us know.

What ph meter are you using?

Great video

Thank you for sharing your knowledge, excellent.

So... the only shop i found were i live sells silver nitrated for the equivalent of 500€/ 100gr. God damn.

that is something. great.

hi. I can't fine Collodion in my country is there any solution i can use to subtiture Collodion? Pls Any one?? :((

I believe the Minolta 7000 introduced in 1985 had the first built in motor drive

Do you use Bichromates/Dichromates in this process ?

If you use a black tray and chlorinated tap water you will be able to see the excess silver pulled from the surface of the print.

I wonder where Steve is today.

Great camera

XLNT video. I am just learning the PRO-S film backs, and want to know HOW the RED DOT is used? Should it be showing for normal shooting, or covered by switch? I do not want to double expose. THANK YOU!

Just what I needed. Thanks you.

5 *****'s

YES TO SIGMA THE PRICE IS RIGHT

Fantastic

Pretty cool.

you are NOT ready to shoot, on these PRO-S and PRO-SD backs, there is an interlock double exposure safety meaning if the 'switch' bellow the winding lever shows the red dot, this interlock is OFF, allowing multi-exposures!!, and if you are not carefull (remind oneself to WIND ON the film!!) it WON'T do it for you, as this is a manual camera, this safety acts on the shutter button, same as the darkslide and mirror winding lever, they all stop the shutter from completing its travel, and firing the shutter; in this case, until the winding lever is cycled, and the red tag in the frame counter disapears!, then you can shoot safetly on an un-exposed frame of film.

wow, I've never tried that, once dry. I've only tried still wet in the bath, and it's very fragile indeed. It leaves scratches no mather how delicate you are trying to be...

Where does one put the dark slide while shooting? Did you remember to remove it from the camera back?

No footage of sensitizing the carbon tissue, isn't that the most important step?

Fin. Made my day seeing that lol

Hi! Thank you for your videos! One question: how do you prepare final support sheets?

Are the fumes of the developer extremely harmful? Does inhaling the solution cause cancer in any way? Because I’ve read all the safety papers of the chemicals and keep getting mixed responses. Thanks.

Nice video. I'm confused, I thought salt printing did not require a safe light?

step 7 does anyone know what percent that silver nitrate solution is?

Well I guess I'll try another video one that gives more instructions than just 900 mL of water that was the only exact amount you gave of anything everything else was just thrown in there here we have this here we have that horrible instructional video thumbs down

great video about photography

Now all you gotta do is go back to the 1840's and secure a patent. Louis Daguerre will be fuming!

An interesting salted printing out process is Arrowroot-Chloride POP. Dissolve the sodium carbonate and citric acid, the mixture will effervesce, then add the ammonium chloride.

Thank you so much for producing this amazing series - Gives a real idea of the process for when I am ready to try it for myself.

Where did you get the magnetic strips and the surface that they are on?

Steve made beautiful cameras. I was so sorry when he left Rochester, it was great to see him evolve as a great craftsman.

How can we get the color image? Excellent explanation. Very didactic.

Probably the only video on the use of the focal plane shutter of a Speed Graphic with petzval and other barrel lenses. Fantastic!

Wonderful stuff...

The sound of the MD-4 is beautiful beast of a camera everyone should own one in there lifetime

Gosh you used so much water the african kids are jealous

Being a Nikon addict I been looking at one of these to add to my collection Up date I now got one looking forward to using it alongside my digital photography kit good news all my lens fit and work with it 👍🏻

Great video. Can I remove back without a darkslide with 645 mamiya?
